I don’t really understand why anyone thinks it is okay to recline their seat, with the possible exception of the back row (if it even reclines). I consider it rude, and I never use the “feature”. I find the argument that this somehow would “completely sacrifice my own comfort” hyperbolic.

I think you are full of shit. I know that isn’t constructive criticism, but I feel like it is the most concise description of my views on your post.

The BRZ handles well, and I do not dispute that (other than saying the 2017 Fiat 124 gets my vote over both BRZ and Miata), but I really don’t get how a WRX is less fun to drive. I would accept that it is sometimes fun in different ways, but I’ve never had more fun in a BRZ than in a WRX (obviously with at least an…

The only WRX trim with 17s is listed as 3272 lbs. The BRZ with PP is listed as 2793 lbs. Even if you went with the heaviest WRX listing, it would only be ~3340. It is a significant difference in weight, but it is nowhere near 800 lbs.

I have yet to meet anyone “serious about drivers cars” that considers the BRZ in the hunt for a purchase. It is stuck at a strange point between power and weight. It needs more of one or less of the other, respectively.

I test drove in the PNW, but it isn’t just about whether it is enjoyable on its own. The Fiat 124, for the same price, weighs 350 lbs less and has way more low-end power. It just feels way better at what it does than the BRZ. The Miata’s comparative lack of power makes it a closer call, but I still feel that it is…

This is not meant as a disagreement with your point, but I think it would really be better to say 1861 (the beginning rather than the ending of the war).

I’m fine with Toyota selling that underwhelming 86, but Subaru should never have ventured into Miata territory. It is pretty clear from their sales figures that investing the same money in Outbacks/Foresters would probably have a much higher payoff. Also, as someone who has been waiting for the FA25 (or whatever it…

The Veloster has the worst visibility of any car I’ve driven aside from a Contach I spent 5 minutes in way back in 1993. That isn’t to say there aren’t comparable poor-visibility vehicles, but it was one of the worst things about the Veloster to me.

From personal experience, you can’t see anything. It is like driving in a closet with the door open. It had a terrible ride, but doesn’t have the great handling you’d expect as a pay-off. It’s just not a great car in comparison to the other options.

There is not much damning in those links. He made a joke about catcalling and then a reaching comparison. The rest of it about his views on rape is actually more of a defense of his character. Frankly, I find the view you express based on this material to be far more culturally problematic than anything concerning…

Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, in Kansas City, MO.   I went to school at 52nd and Troost. There were frequent trips made to the museum.

I will be continuing my first run through Grim Dawn, level 39 and onward.

If anyone is up to handling this potential threat, it’s

This is not a very defensible assumption. It is quite common to experience drastic variance in light durations across municipal boundaries, and not every municipality can attract and employ expert-level administration of the lights. The role of the yellow is to give you enough time to stop without braking hard, but it…

Nobody (other than the speaker) knows what thoughts drive what is spoken. Constantly reading unprovable assumptions is the most arduous part of consuming internet posts.

It would have been far better for you to argue the target of her gesture than to attempt a defense of “barge”. If he was the target of her beckoning, you will not find many who would agree with your definition. The only objective argument here is that she was possibly beckoning someone else, and it only appears that…

It feels exactly like a late-80s early-90s beat-em-up to me, and that makes my metaphor a perfect tool for describing how I feel about the game. Your disagreement with the underlying opinion in no way alters the validity of my chosen metaphor in its encapsulation of my viewpoint.
