Tesla never issued a recall in the US for this reason.

I like to think the bill they passed to create the law was entitled “Street Parking Illegitimate Trade Economy”. I urge all of my colleagues to ratify SPITE today!

God damning it was, in fact, very much the crux of the issue!

Do the traffic cones in your area of the world get run over, like, hourly? That is one seriously deformed, tipped-over cone!

Correction: Thanks to the original article that provided that chart, I now know that the Prowler was history’s second-most purple car, behind this abominable (and, mercifully) one-of-a-kind McLaren 720S.

What researchers didn’t know back in 2015 was what a six-, 12-, or 18-month-old barnacle in the subtropical Indian Ocean would look like. In the years following the flaperon’s discovery, researchers tried growing barnacles in the lab and on buoys at sea and found that Lepas grows at different rates and winds up at…

Isn’t Baskcamp that painter who was friends with Andy Warhol?

OK, that looks like a truck diaper. And not an empty one. Even Tesla’s abomination at least looks slightly better, IMHO, though it sounds like it’s functionally much worse.

Assuming that photo on the left of that Tweet is how Tesla marketed the tent, this is blatant false advertising. The reality does not even begin to approach what was promised in the product photos.

Yeah, not “inflatable” like the walls of a bouncy castle. In a traditional inflatable tent (which this Tesla thing does not quite sound like), instead of constructing a rigid frame and stretching a fabric shell over it, you inflate air tubes that serve as the tent poles. At full pressure, they’re nearly as rigid as…

The weird thing about that brief mid-1990s dalliance with purple is that the Plymouth Prowler (history’s most purple car) didn’t debut until 1997, when the trend was already waning. No wonder it failed! (“...Yeah, that’s why.”)

You kidding? Forest Green was, like, the color for your Taurus, Grand Am, Civic, or (especially) ANY SUV brand — notably including Range/Land Rovers and Jeeps — from about 1993 until the end of the 20th Century.

The case and the Maybach were then lifted and placed onto the main deck of the Queen Elizabeth 2 transatlantic liner

It was literally driven into the Regent Hotel and onto a turnstile for its official introduction

They want Rob Liefeld-illustrated, impossibly-proportioned anime characters, their 58DDDD breasts and artfully-shaved, bedazzled vajayjays draped in a thin layer of gauze, favoring them with saucer-eyed gazes of intensely submissive devotion.

“It’s important to keep calling things with fairly straightforward neoliberal politics ‘woke’ in order to ensure the word has absolutely no meaning.”

Now we just need to bring in Rooster Teeth’s German Willy Wonka, Villy Vonka. (Google it, and turn down the “Did You Mean?” — terrible habit! You won’t be disappointed.)

Sonata > Miata. Come @ me, internet.

I suspect it’s the other way around — since the AI-generated elements can be used to modify existing images, you have to promise you’re incorporating it into something you own (or nobody else owns). Like, if you have the AI turn the Mona Lisa into a biker chick, you’re in the clear. Do the same thing to Shepard…

Settle down, Grand Moff Snarkin’.
