Just because Rover was dumb in 1965 doesn’t mean we should continue to make that mistake today. If the word “coupe” doesn’t exclusively apply to vehicles with only two doors, then the word is unnecessary and takes the word “sedan” down with it.

I just moved away from the Houston area less than 2 months ago. I lived there for about 10 years (first in Baytown, then in Pasadena). I was a technician, and I drove to my jobs every day. My jobs were literally all over the Houston metropolitan area and surrounding counties. I put over 20,000 miles on my truck every…

When I fly on business, I frequently have to work on the trip.

Talking, yes actually talking, with people is the answer. I seriously doubt that most people’s knees will be physically in contact with a seat that is reclined on an aircraft anymore than if it was not reclined. However, in that extremely rare case I would conseed and not recline if asked or your case too for work.…

This is the correct take. I’m 6'1 and have never even come close to having my knees bashed. There are taller folks than me, but we’re talking <10% of the population.

I’m 6'2 and don’t understand the problem.... Just freaking recline. The problem doesn’t come from people who recline, it comes from the people who don’t. If everyone recline their seat, everyone has just as much space to stretch their legs and everyone feel more comfortable. When it’s time to eat, hop! Everybody up!…

Counterpoint-

“The only time I recline my seat is if there is no one behind me”

My uncle had one of those, same colour too. His had a wood bumper however for that extra Canadian charm! Lots of fun driving in it. My other uncle put a 200w pioneer system in it (first separate amplifier system I ever saw, we’re talking early 80’s) and it could nearly kill the headlights at night (not that Lucas…

The Scottish government told Trump to go fuck himself over his complaints about clean energy offshore windmills that were an eyesore to a bunch of rich golfing twats, and being a Scot, I am very proud of them for doing that. The fallout for us all, from Trump not getting his way, is witnessing his toddler tantrum…

For anyone saying “F1 is boring” I sure hope they watched this race because it seriously was something awesome. The first 15 or so and the last 15 or so laps were incredibly dramatic. Sure the middle part was a little boring but that happens with just about every race out there. There was so much passing/jostling in…

A Chinese court ruled in favor of a western company on an IP dispute? I’ve been indoors all day. Has anybody checked the rotation of the earth to make sure it’s still happening?

makes me miss the days of my childhood when we all rolled around in a 505 wagon

I thought the series that ended yesterday was quite great. LeBlanc & Harris had a solid rapport and Rory seemed to finally find his place/footing. I’ll miss that set-up, if anything I’d have kept Reid and only replaced LeBlanc.

I’ll still watch this new series though, no matter who is on it’ll be significantly better…

Yes. I have had plenty of successful, employee-free self checkout experiences. The few that I do need someone for I know I will now (ex: buying spray paint at Home Depot, because of ID checks). I did retail cashiering for awhile, I know how to bag my shit and get out.

BUT, I want to start a rule: If you are at a store…

Counter-point: Self-checkout (when properly configured and working) is the best.
