In b4 all the people who have never owned a car with heated seats (or who bought the base model without them) make a scene about how unnecessary heated seats are.

Things that are “unnecessary” until you live with them and then decide you never want another car without them ever again:
- Heated seats
- Heated mirrors
-…

Claire did it.

Obama gave eight years of his life in the most thankless job there is and we, the United States voters, chose to reward his legacy by electing a racist clown.

I spend $5.00 a day at Starbucks. I’ve done the math - I know what I could be saving if I didn’t spend that on coffee. I also know that it’s very likely that instead of pocketing the difference I would be spending it on something else that I enjoy less, and so i’ll continue to happily spend on my habit.

If you ever see a new WRX in a ditch it’s likely because the owner didn’t realise that it comes with summer performance tyres. The second highest reason is being a different sort of idiot.

He makes a great point about your traction and ability to get moving fast in an all-wheel or 4-wheel drive car not being equal to your ability to stop on snowy and icy roads. I see a lot of SUVs in accidents around me in winter, probably for that reason. You have to give yourself more room in winter for slower…

Not only do these exist, apparently Car;’s Jr had them for sale at some point:

there would be riots if we had to use logarithms to translate fahrenheit to celsius 

Do we really need to go over what happens when Americans are allowed to vote?

I live in Fort Collins and I am quite sad about the sale. New Belgium has some of the best sour beer. I hope they keep the local events like Tour De Fat and local live music, but I am not too optimistic.

If you’re around Denver (technically Lakewood/Belmar, Aurora, and Greenwood Village) stop in at The French Press. It started in a single location on Union St in Lakewood tucked away next to an adult film store, we found it because of a coupon in those mailers you get. Now it has three separate locations. The original…

I really enjoyed the tone of “Spook Country.” It’s like the whole thing is a big practical joke, but a very serious practical joke.

I think Pattern Recognition is the best of that trilogy, but I did like that last book a lot. I never thought of men’s fashion being so influenced by military dress before.

I’d rather watch an adaptation of his novel about pants.  That’s not even a joke.

I bought some of that UHT milk in a box because I was tired of keeping milk for cooking that goes half used because I don’t drink it. It’s a pain.

Early painful lessons on conservation of momentum.

“Watch The Future USS John F. Kennedy Float For The First Time.”

This is what I want to know. WHO TURNED THE LETTERS?

If they’re under ten, I like to open with “So, what’s your favorite TV show?” Whatever they answer, I tell them I’ve never heard of it and ask them to tell me about it, at which point I can learn a bit more about the kid just by the language they use. Then I go into old fart mode (I’m 53) and tell them a little bit…

Taking all that SUV size for granite. Drivers must have rocks for brains.
