Volume =/= usable space.

Yep. Pet peeve. The self checkout is for speedy transactions, not so some schmuck with a full cart can bypass the normal line.

We recently lost 2007 Sonata V6 (which I thought was pretty great) in a car accident and looked at various replacements, among them Nissan’s and Ford’s sedans. Between mile-high belt lines and bulbous hood, the much-larger exterior dimensions coupled more cramped interior (compared to Sonata, RIP), etc it was a huge…

I had a 2019 Maxima as a rental, and it was amazing how little interior space they had compared to how externally MASSIVE the thing is. I’m only 6' tall, and I had a pretty tough time getting into the back seats.

The classic “blame the millennials” argument...

How about actually enforcing jaywalking laws? Recently, I saw someone cross a FOUR LANE MAIN ROAD when there was a crosswalk less than 50 feet away. “Oh it’s not convenient/if a car hits me, the driver will get in a lot more trouble.” So a long, expensive hospital stay/death is worth saving a few steps/minutes? And…

Yeah, a friend in our regular group just left the game entirely after the Brigitte release: He just hated getting so angry whenever he was killed by a flailing Brigitte.

I’m okay with this. An external indicator that the driver is most likely staring at his phone, even if the car isn’t moving.

I think the question is, what’s being done for fun, and what’s being done for...any other purpose? I was going to say coolness/awesomeness/badassness/general endowment compensation, but that doesn’t roll of the tongue. Just...people take themselves way too seriously.

If you’re wondering why people care, it’s because a rewatch/spoiled watch and a blind watch are two different experiences - and the latter, you can only experience once in your life for a given work. Spoilers take that away from the viewer against their will, their experience will be incomplete.

How to lose face.

“You drove your bike into my scaffolding!”

Regulation bad! Complete freedom good!

Just because there’s no more sedans doesn’t mean you get to call a 2 door SUV a coupe.

A security partition between front and back would’ve helped, and cameras inside the car as well. Y’know, like taxis. Oh, but I guess treating ride’share’ companies like the cab businesses they are takes away the disruptoridesharennovation spirit.

Hell yes, these things are so trashy anyway.

A shelf full of books, of different colors and sizes/styles, some at rakish angles, just makes a wall look better to me, and the information conveyed about the owner by skimming the titles is not necessarily vain, just communicative. Also, it saves a guest from boredom when there’s nothing else to look at, or the…

Kia says the AWD naturally aspirated engine can do 22 mpg in combined driving while the turbo does 21.

Yah, fuck you. People like you enable the economically strong to punish the weak for arbitrary bullshit like this.

Bro-dozers are common, and many of my friends have them. A sizable percentage of them are great people.
