This summer we were alerted to a guy in our driveway trying to steal our car’s catalytic converter while we were home, and we scared him off.

Three years ago we were away from home and the camera system let us know that there was someone trying to break in through our dining room window, so we sounded the alarm and they…

I’m super stoked for you that you live in an area safe from property crime (and/or violent crime). I rely on our security cameras to identify trespassers an other legitimate dangers around our home, before they have the chance to enter our home.  And I’m fairly certain I’m not alone.

Everything behind the B-pillar reminds me of the first-generation Nissan Leaf.

Snarky comment ridiculing your ignorance.

“I am [changing the conditions] of the deal.  Pray I don’t [change the conditions] any further.”

Likely my favorite announcement of the day. Never played the originals, and often regretted that.

That was my problem with Wargroove too. I liked it a lot, and I played it sooooo much. (Seriously, I can still clearly remember several maps and strategies I used on them.)  But some of the later levels are so unforgiving, and then you have to start the whole thing over again because one move you made early on pretty…

I realize that the 10th-gen Civic has polarizing styling (I happen to like it, but I know many don’t), but one could hardly call it “unenthusiastic.”

As for this 11th-gen, I like the interior. I like any improvements they’re making to the driving dynamics. But good lordt that thing’s exterior looks dull and boring as…

I was in college when the original Pokemon Snap came out.  I played it a couple times at a Blockbuster kiosk, and while I thought it looked neat, I found it kinda boring to play.  I guess I just didn’t “get” it.

We discovered that gem on a camping trip last year.

I present to you: Kitchen-Dick Road

I mean, it’s kind of a generational thing, not “weird.” Back in the day, the Y-axis by default was setup in the way which is considered “inverted” today. It’s already baked into how many of us controlled the view/camera (and yoke in flight games) for a very long time.

Invert the Y-axis.

Here’s the lay of the land in Washington State — Following the rules of your ask, for $450, this 98 *Grand* Caravan Sport new tires, new brakes, a new cat, and only 170K miles on the clock! It also sports a non-functional engine and some not-pictured cosmetic damage. If manual windows are your thing, you can spend the…

But that generosity is creating a culture of waste, where an estimated 17 million pounds of food in China gets thrown out every year. That much food could feed an additional 30 million people each year at the very least—roughly the entire population of Texas

I don’t care what anyone says:  I friggin love this car.  Bummer news.  I’ve got my eye on a few used ones.

The “asshole” thing isn’t called for, though you do take several opportunities in your piece to dismiss the person who reported you as some sort of killjoy “Ebeneezer.” I have a hard time believing that you wouldn’t understand that having a dozen vehicles in various states of disrepair makes it look like there’s a…

For anyone living out west: Get your hands on San Juan Seltzer. It blows Truly (which I love) and Claw (which I’m okay with) out of the (carbonated) water.

If would be much easier to imagine if the conglomerate the blog belongs to wasn’t also constantly posting breathless social policing articles.
