Someone need to make some torchbee drawings now...

Oh no, now it’s a bee! It’s all yellow with black stripes. Careful for not get a sting from it.

What if humans are maintained in suspended animation and “live” on a virtual reality like Matrix, but each one is assigned to a real world “autonomous” car? It’s like a Jalop’s wet dream, where everyone in the world suddenly turned so crazy about cars that the technological development made it possible to everyone in…

Well, most seafood don’t eat corals (only the parrot fish, endemic to Austrlia). The smallest fishes eat plankton or algea and become food for larger and larger fishes. Commercial fishing really don’t care about small clownfishes, people consume larger animals. It has already been shown that the ocean temperature…

Hey, Jason, I have a question and I bet you’re the one who can answer it. When did the word car was fully adopted to described four-wheeled self propelled vehicles? I know in the very early days they were called horseless carriages and, shortly after, automobiles. Nowadays, and for a very long time, they’re just cars,…

“Take that, Farming Simulator”

This happened in Brazil, the car is a VW Santana Mk.1. I saw the video elsewhere, with an explanation: The car was apprehended by the police, and stayed a long time on the dmv parking lot. Here, the dmv often auctions these cars, and this car was bought from one of those auctions. This explains why the oil change is…

I was thinking that, for $6k, it was CP but when I saw the leopard interior... I was certain this was a pimp’s car. NP!

There’s yet another plus on learning Spanish: Many romance languages are very similar, and even mutually inteligible. From Spanish to Portuguese or to Italian isn’t such a big leap.

For the price this pen probably costs, I’m baffled to know it isn’t a fountain pen, just a pleb ball head pen.

No probs!! They were made for the South American market, in Brazil (and designed here too). The Mk.1 VW Gol spawned a family of derived cars: The Voyage was the sedan, the Parati the wagon and the Saveiro the ute. The Mk.1 Voyage and Parati were actually exported to the US as the VW Fox and VW Fox wagon in late 80's…

It’s a VW Parati, a wagon based on the VW Gol, Mk. 2. Plus, it is a 1997 model, the last year with the sexy two-door style, and a Club series, a very limited run of just 4000 cars. I still have to check, but I’m almost certain this car colour is the legendary (at least in Brazil) Monaco Blue, which Volkswagen only…

That’s not technically incorrect, lol

If we can define shooting brake as any three-door wagon without relation to actual shooting, my DD is a shooting brake :D

“But a school bus does more than just imply via details: the whole existence of this vehicle design requires the existence of human children, full stop.”

They sell like hotcakes in Brazil. But this thing looks like a behemoth! Look at the size of its hips, and the amount of sheet metal between the rear wheel and the rear window!

My personal comparisons are Chery QQ small (13") and JAC J5 small (16", but they look tiny)
