The reviewer seems to either be a shill or woefully inadequate at actually reviewing a movie. I used to use av club to decide if a movie was worth seeing, but I guess I’ll have to use my own judgment now. 

You’re joking, right? It doesn’t even touch Cars in terms of quality. This movie has the storytelling maturity of a mall sensory ride. 

Holy fuck this movie was bad, and now I have to wonder what is going on with AVC’s movie review standards. 

If this applies to Harleys, I’m fine with it. (I say this as an avid moto rider)

You’re right, I should just stick with getting that new up-powered Miata. 

Hear, hear. Ya’ll a bunch of sell-outy motherfuckers.

Ironically, our prefontal cortext (which allows us to develop an incredibly nuanced manner for communication, none of which is present in this demonstration).

Re: the 200; I agree completely. I am a diehard euro and Japanese imports guy so when I rent a car, it’s always a disappointment. Got one of these as a rental once and was completely astonished. It was fun to drive, quick, nice interior. I couldn’t understand why I hadn’t heard more about the thing.

In later Fringe eps, Torv is able to flex her acting chops a lot more, and ends up being an actor I actually shed tears for her performances. It surprised the hell out of me then too.

I’ve got an ‘02 330i with 170k miles on it, and it runs like a dream. Just had to replace a thermostat with a crummed-out gasket (looks like someone hot-fixed it). $120 fix and took a total of 2 hours (because I was being slow and lazy). Granted anecdata is not data, but I think these cars run as well as you take care…

I wish someone would break my neck when I see one in person.

I read your whole comment. Your second point (gathering model information, comparing it, etc) is salient, but you driving one yourself should have no bearing on the prediction model, so why do it? It’s what statisticians call “anecdata” or anecdotal data. Your single experience can’t and shouldn’t be considered with…

What would driving that one car do to determine reliability across a fleet of vehicles. You don’t seem to understand how prediction models work...

In order to get good reliability metrics on a car, you’d have to buy thousands of them and drive them hundreds of thousands of miles. That’s obviously stupid, you’d agree, so instead, they take figures from research. Remember: they’re not rating quality, they’re rating _reliability_, a metric that can only be measured…

Pretend you’re saying “fob” like it’s an abbreviation of “fobulous”. It feels way better.

Interestingly, this very thing happened to my 2015. I don’t think it’s a problem limited to 2013-2014. Thankfully they covered it under warranty at the dealer. A $6k fix O_O

I’m confused. I’m pretty sure when I read Outliers, Gladwell specifically and on numerous occasions in the book pointed out that the practice had to be continually pushing one’s boundaries in a deliberate manner, which the first quote describes pretty much the same way.

She *is* brave, but not for the reason you might think. The guy’s not fucking dangerous. Most people aren’t dangerous. Most people just want someone to talk to.

I don’t get why people care this much about the house. The entire point of the house was the non-descriptness of it, the total forgettability of it. I think I’ve seen this exact house 1000 times around Phoenix.

Indeed; carbon fiber isn’t structural, so something else is. Why would a body shop ever just assume?
