As an Alfa Romeo owner, I feel personally targeted by this content.
Came for the explanation, starred for the Snow Crash reference.
The world’s best sandwich shop, All’Antico Vinaio in Florence (not hyperbole, look it up. My wife added Florence to our last Europe trip itinerary just so she could share this place with me), has a sign on the wall, in English, that simply says “pesto is not a sandwich filling”.
Reminds me of the Maybach Exelero, another one-off pre-GFC car nerd thirst trap. Love it, but mostly because it reminded me of the Anton Furst Batmobile (that’s the Keaton/Burton one, for all the normal people who don’t obsess over Batmobiles).
Always “Concorde”. Not “a Concorde”, or “the Concorde”. Just “Concorde”.
Not sure about power off the top of my head, but yeah, it was just for us and our odd tax system that meant 2 litre and below got some sort of credit or lower rego costs or something.

Yup, beat you to it by roughly 5 years. Kinja game is on point!
Sysadmin here. I suspect they mean most of the servers were running Windows 2000. This would also explain how they were able to compromise them so easily.
In New Zealand we call them Jandals. And because we are bound by tradition to always argue with Australians, they are blue and gray.
Hate to break it to you, but that’s not an American car.
My mate nearly got away with naming his daughter Savanna, until his dad gave the game away: “What, like an RX-3?”. Also rejected were Efini, Silvia and Laurel. Good thing too, she really suits “Cosmo”.
Mini-lites ftw!

Only a matter of time now till the M3 pulls everything else up with it. With that in mind, I have a 1987 325i for sale. $78,000 o.n.o. Its the poor man’s M3. But not too poor. No tyre kickers or test pilots.
I vote 1980s, and I can explain why with one word and one letter: Read more
