“VW PTSD”

1.8t? I don’t believe you.

The 4 cylinder is legendarily reliable, albeit extremely underpowered. Even so, you still get to deal with possible German electrical gremlins.

I got an ‘08 Accord after my VW. I really like the driving experience of the VW more, the weight of the steering, much less road noise than a Honda, etc. However, every time I shut the door on the Accord, whether I had to drive 1 mile or 1,000, I knew it would just fucking work. That was always a little up in the air…

I could damn near maintain a Porsche for what it would cost to run that damn Jetta at 110k miles, too!

Fuck no. I owned a 2001 VW Jetta 1.8t. I’ll never own another VW product (except a Porsche.)

Every Porsche of that body style is hideous. They should all be burned or dumped on the sea floor to create reefs.

Torchinsky, what the hell is wrong with you? You try so hard to be quirky. Who hurt you?

Captain Cook? A cook at a restaurant? A home cook? If you’re talking about a specific paper, cite the fucking title of the paper along with the full name of the author. Hell, I went to school with people the last name Cook, which one of their papers are you talking about? If you’re making an assertion, it’s your job…

Son, WTF are you talking about? What/who the fuck is Cook et al? Does Cook have a first name? Are your referencing a legal case, or a person with the last name Cook and a bunch of his buddies, hence the “et al.”

Given the fact that specific government agencies have been forbidden from using terms like “global warming” by the administration, anything that comes from a .gov address is suspect.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for more than the last decade, you’d know that there is a global scientific consensus that global…

Don’t be a fucking idiot (I suppose it’s too late for that.) Also, if you’re going to cite statistics or numbers, provide your sources.

But how else is the author going to show how intelligent he is and the depth of his understanding?!?!

But, seriously, I’m an attorney and I deal with some difficult to understand concepts pretty regularly. Some of them are difficult for people who are formally educated in law to understand, and many of them are…

Hey there, internet creepy person, how about you dial the creepy back a little?

When I was in art school there was a guy that went to law school, got a job in biglaw in NYC, and hated it so much he quit and went to grad school at SCAD for Computer Art 3-D animation. I’m about as rare as he is, though. There’s not a lot of cross-over between art and law.

Some ideas and opinions are stupid as to be not valid at all, such as thinking that the earth is flat or denying global warming.

Must be some good crack you have in your office if you think everyone’s opinion is valid.

“All opinions are valid.”

What the fuck do you design, electrical systems? “All opinions are valid” my ass. You sound like some PR flak because there’s no artist or designer that I know that thinks that all opinions are valid. 

Yep! I wouldn’t trade my art school education for anything as it has enriched my life immeasurably but, art isn’t exactly lucrative, I like nice things, and I spent plenty of years arguing for free. I finally decided to make some money arguing.

Computer art 3-D Animation with a minor in art history, and nearly enough photography classes to get a photo minor.

What’s fishy about it? All that’s required to get into law school is an undergrad degree. Once you’ve got your law degree, if you want to be admitted to the patent bar you’ve got to have an undergrad…
