Pretty sure Torch covered this earlier today.

That’s a bargain. iMHO. It was the concept car they actually fucking made.  It was the first Grunge car; raw and real and unapologetically unrefined.  Nothing else was like it.  And this was VIN #1 and owned by a Mt. Rushmore auto figure in Iacocca?  A bargain.

Are you saying a car designed in China is copying something else?

Exactly. None whatsoever. The man obviously knows what he is doing be cause he is super rich, right?

1. Meeting through reality TV is the BEST way to make a life long romantic relationship work. Fact

Dodge had some cool concept cars in the 90’s, my favorite was the Sidewinder.

the small miseries of friction (in this case, sticking your credit card in a machine)

By the time I read everything, only about half of the car pictures had loaded, but 13(!) individual ads loaded for a pretty fancy woodchipper. So I am left thinking that a woodchipper was the most important thing of the last 15 years.

Because they endanger the many, many regular cyclists. The bike lane solution is now developed enough to actively mitigate the danger to cyclists from the close proximity of motor vehicles that’s unavoidable in NYC, so there are more cyclists commuting by bike every day. Putting motorized vehicles in the bike lanes…

yeah i really just am not comfortable on a bike in the city. i even sold my motorcycle because of the idiot drivers here in boston

You do know that a 80,000lb vehicle does 160,000 times more damage than a 4,000lb car right? Filling the streets with just twice the amount of busses will put a HUGE tax on the roadways. 

In those 7 miles I travel over 5 bridges, 2 of which do not allow pedestrians/bikes. My Uncle died crossing one of those bridges on my commute last years ago. We have been working with the Gov and other pro-bike groups to do something about it but come one, this is fucking SC....if anything they will add a HOV lane…

Amen. My Southern city is located, roughly, in a 20 mile-by-20 mile area including the suburbs that I live in. I can get in my car and get from one side to the other in less than 30 minutes. Even if area-wide mass transit was available, I’m not driving 10 minutes to the train or bus station; waiting another 15 minutes…

I live in the largest city in South Carolina. It has under 800,000 people. It is a series of land masses all connected with bridges. Lot of water everywhere.

Fuck all this noise - buy a motorcycle instead. Commute easily, park anywhere, reduce traffic, etc.

car = I can get in and go wherever I want, whenever I want. I’m in control. I can talk to myself in peace, practicing arguments that I may have one day, or replaying things that I should have said. I can listen to whatever music I want to, or talk on my (hands free) phone without worry.

The only cities that have (even somewhat) moved away (or avoided) private vehicle commuting are those with extensive rapid transit solutions. Cities like NY, Chicago, Atlanta, London, etc.

Track record of irresponsibility? Adorable.

So Russia cheats, and likely hasn’t honored it for years, and we respond with a missile test, and you say we are all worse off for it because we show our strength?

Sure, makes sense. Putin will definitely respond with fear when we send him a strongly worded letter indicating he needs to stop cheating.

The only reason…

I’m going to ring in the new year on a Star Trek: TOS marathon. And having Taco Bell munchie attacks at 3am. Happy Nude Year everyone!
