Where’s mine?

I had a friend whose dad was going to build him up a 1977 Lincoln Continental with a detuned Geo Metro engine. Sounds like about the same level of performance.

You forgot guns and a recent copy of “To Serve Man”. Common omissions...

No, that would create too much risk of your target developing superpowers and immediately flaming/oozing/force fielding/teleporting the attacker into a bloody mist/volcano/alternate dimension.

Oh, come on, the friend is awesome too! It’s secondary, tangential awesome, but it’s all awesome. Allsome!

It’s the new thing. Men should be seen and not heard.

Agreed. Absolutely nothing about that definition is unique to men talking to women. By that definition, a former HR rep, a woman, is by far the biggest mansplainer I have ever worked with. It’s a pretty absurdly contrived definition.

Dear Officer...

Wait, which one am I?

I starred just for that.

Wait, Michelle Obama is a transmission? So confused...

Indeed. Makes my pants fit funny.

So how does one find a local pro to do this sort of inspection? I suppose any mechanic could help, but the results shown in the article suggest a lot more depth than some would do.

Fantastic!

“Stick to stealing Camrys, dummies. They’re natural defense is just being Camrys.”

Discreetly? No...

I largely agree, although there is a difference between “not catering”/“not made for” and “actively excluding”. One of these is not like the others...

Thanks for the reply. I’d never heard of prismatic cells. The structural advantage of cylinders is interesting... particularly in a car that inherent advantage must help the engineers a lot.

I find it’s similar with wines. The bouquet of the wine seems improved as it goes from the box and onto the cubes.Also, the fruit notes seem improved, a little sharper, as the wine goes from straw to tongue.

Ok, I have a (possibly) dumb question. Is there something about batteries that makes it necessary that they be cylindrical? I see pictures with what appears to be a lot of space in the Lamé-curved sections between the batteries. It seems the pack could be made more compact, although cooling would have to be managed.
