Jaws - As a child, I thought this movie was a simple horror film. My father is responsible for making me watch it and realize it is a masterpiece of dialogue.

Conan the Barbarian - I watched this movie on nearly a daily basis in my early teens. There was a time when I could recite the dialogue without aid. I was…

I’ve liked several Borland riffs. The truly bad thing about Limp Bizkit has always been Durst. The rest of the band could easily cruise along at a “C” level, if they had a non-rapping singer who could actually write decent lyrics.

I already pay for premium. I’d vote for this in a heartbeat just to see higher octane premium. I’d love to be able to count on at least 93 to get an easy boost from an OTS remap. Even if “regular” goes up .30 a gallon, I’m looking at a ~$4.50 increase in cost per week for my partner’s non-performance commuter, and…

This kind of schoolyard bullshit is pathetic. If you get physically aggressive with someone who isn’t trying to hurt you, you deserve to be punished.

I’d watch at least one episode of that.

I have two people adjacent to my cube that watch F1. We make sportswear unrelated to any automative sport, so it isn’t due to my workplace.

I was obsessed with action movies as a child. When we got access to VCRs in 1986, I watched every Chuck Norris (and Arnold, and Clint, and Bruce Lee, etc.) movie that “Videoland” had available. I didn’t really understand how bad Chuck Norris movies were until around age 12 when Braddock: Missing in Action III came out.

They’re both terrible movies, but I’d always pick MIA over Rambo II (if I had to watch either of them). Even as a action-movie-obsessed child, I hated Rambo II. I don’t know how much of the original script for Rambo II survived production, but the basis for MIA was supposedly the early James Cameron script. I don’t…

I’ve never played Overwatch, but I did enjoy Heroes Die by Mathew Woodring Stover.

It has been CVT only for the past ~5 years. That is not how you market a performance-oriented vehicle in this segment. If it isn’t going to be a stick, it needs to be a performance-oriented non-manual (few and far between sub $40K). The Subaru CVT is garbage for performance driving. I shopped for one in 2016, but I…

Abandoning my 1991 CRX Si due to spun bearing when I didn’t have the funds to swap.

I was with you until cloth seats. I hate cloth seats. It doesn’t have to be leather, but it has to be as non-absorbent as realistically possible. If we’re really talking what I want, it would be to exchange the touch screen “entertainment unit” cost for seat venting at lower trim levels.

You can read this comment as…

Non-rhetorically, Uber is bad business (as is Lyft), and it deserved to fail a long time ago. I don’t care about legacy transit. I don’t care about the human cost of autonomous car testing. Uber just isn’t good for anyone other than those unknowingly receiving subsidization of their transport.

They should have converted it to producing the best security system of all time:

I managed to get the Advantage as a “big” gift (we lived in a trailer), and loved it. My friend, who always had every freaking game/controller/magazine/etcm always preferred the Max over the Advantage. I really didn’t understand it until years later when I realized he had never had an “arcade phase”. He had only ever…

That’s not the point. If the autonomous cars can’t do any better than human drivers, they’re doomed.

Abashed the Devil stood,
And felt how awful goodness is, and saw
Fred Rogers in his shape how lovely.
Saw, and pined his loss.

It’s important because you lose 100% of the losses you lose.

I read this before buying the 2+1 package from Best Buy today (had a credit about to expire), and I was a bit worried, but my code worked.
