No. She mentions in her long-winded defense, along with “I’m an athlete and train all year”, that they ran/walked. You’re not going to run/walk to a sub 2-hour half marathon.

There’s a lot that needs to squeeze in there, savings, utilities, “wants”. It might be in their methodology and noted as included under housing, but utilities alone could eat up a lot or all of the “other”. If you make enough money to just barely cover the basic necessities, then I wouldn’t really consider that a…

Also worth noting that the vaunted “6 figures” is a solidly middle-class wage these days unless you’re getting into the upper reaches.

Don’t assume it’s correct just because it came from MIT. They do cite what is used for the model though, so it’s possible to determine the amount of “correctness”. In their calculation, the “other” category is quite slim and is supposed to cover anything not food, housing, medical, transportation, and taxes.

They “protect” the paint underneath and look fine from a distance, but they don’t look fine up close, degrade over time, and you’re likely going to do more damage to the paint underneath than would have been done without one if you try to remove it.

I almost added in Ricciardo, but decided to just go full misanthrope.

I don’t remember who won Monaco last year either...probably Hamilton or Vettel though.

I’m more interested in the far more feasible value of “minimum number of zambonis to resurface Lake Superior while it is still frozen”. It’s obviously an insurmountable task to resurface the lake during a standard hockey intermission, but you’re not going to be playing hockey on the entire lake, so you only need to…

How much do they make? Don’t forget to include any retirement and healthcare benefits. My anecdotal evidence has GM factory workers making about $80k/yr with a pension and lifetime health insurance, but that’s obviously some old 2006 numbers...which strangely is basically 6 figures if you account for inflation, but I…

I was also about to suggest an RSX Type-S...or even a later model Civic SI

An ex of mine was in a triathlon that Brett Favre did. She kicked his ass in the swim, and also would have beaten him on the bike and run if it wasn’t the 2nd one she ever did. His times were...not good.

Fuck. I was ready to vote NP until I got the the end and saw that the bastard put a clear bra on it. Fuck that....CP

So you can’t recycle paper cups made for containing liquid, straws, plastic bags, and now black plastic. I guess that just leaves us with newspapers, bottles, and cans?

Miata is a perfectly reasonable vehicle for a family of 4. 

...and if you don’t want to go quite so deep, then Richard Feynman’s Appendix to the Roger’s Commission report is also good, and should also be required reading for STEM-types https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/missions/51-l/docs/rogers-commission/Appendix-F.txt

I would be fine with Subraru keeping the WRX as a fast shitbox if they had kept the Legacy as a fast nice sedan like back in 2005. Back then, Subaru was aiming the Legacy at the euro sport sedan market, and they had me sold. Today, I have no idea what the point of the Legacy is.

Pretty much a luxe beach towel that doesn’t have a novelty design or name of something on it.

I own a bath sheet, but in my defense I didn’t know it was called that. I just saw it in the store and thought “wow! Giant fuckin’ towel! I can stroll around and not have to worry about that falling off in front of an open window and frightening my neighbors!”

No, the unicode characters do nothing. The assumption is that your friends will be frothing at the mouth to get their hands on these new emojis you’re using.

I bought a 1st year BRZ (probably one of the first 100 or so in my state), and didn’t have any problems with it
