I pat mine on the hood or (useless) spoiler sometimes. She’s part of the family (I’m the second owner, after my great uncle the car salesman sold it to my grandpa) and she deserves some respect.

I get irrationally upset at the sight of Porsche Cayennes. My brain can’t make sense of a fucking Porsche SUV, plus I’ve never seen one in any situation where having ground clearance AND a massive engine would do you any good. Go buy a Suburban for hauling your kids around and get a real sports car if you wanna go…

It’s like the pristine-looking 10 year old tires on my grandparents’ car. Yeah, they only had 27,000 miles put on them, but after 10 years, the rubber degrades and becomes unsafe. Plenty of tread on ‘em, but still had to get ‘em replaced before I took it up to highway speeds.

My birth mother could have aborted me. I think about it sometimes, what she went through to give me up for adoption vs aborting me. I don’t have any conscious memories before age 2, so it’s not like I would have noticed, therefore I don’t really have an issue with it. Maybe there’s souls, and maybe mine would have…

My favorite GIF is the one where someone ‘Shopped the Alien chestburster scene onto KStew. The alien bursts out with the flashing caption, “RENESMEEEEEE”

Haha, that Superfund town is where my OTHER grandparents are from.

Last time I was in SF for work, I noticed every store has an alarming number of security guards and CC cameras. All I wanted was a pair of headphones, and it took ages to figure out that they keep everything electronic behind a locked case behind the counter in most drug and general stores. Is shrink that bad in…

The Walgreens in my hometown treated me like a criminal, and I stopped shopping there. The store is near a high school, and I was shopping around the time early period students would have gotten out. I wasn’t dressed like a total ragamuffin — nice jeans, Sambas, probably a hoodie or track jacket, and the Army cap one…

That kick was nothing outside the norm (see also: every Cro Cop fight, including the one where Gonzaga used his own CEMETERY kick for a KO).

@Clark Andrews, are you from a town named after a lodging place for deer? My grandparents used to order pizza from the newish delivery place in town, and they adored their regular pizza delivery boy.

The problem with the “Rousey will be back” argument is that we already saw this happen once before. The seemingly unbeatable Gina Carano was riding a 7-0 win streak when she ran face-first into Cyborg’s fists. She immediately left to make movies and hasn’t been seen in a ring/cage since.

DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. If you decide later to stop putting up with discrimination or harassment, but you don’t have any documentation, you’re already doomed.

Right? And usually civilians are too intimidated to enter, so you have plenty of privacy.

I keep getting complimented on my weight loss at work. I’ve lost 60+ pounds since April and gone down several pants sizes, and I look really fit. It’s great...

I may be biased because I used to dance around my server room (which was also a filing closet) while singing Funkytown, and once had a company principal walk in on me shaking my ass as I stuffed RAM into a tower, serenading it with, “DOOT DOOT DOO, FUNKAAAAY TOWN”...but that coffee shop story was the best.

Was gonna say, that looks an awful lot like 10th Avenue South...because it is. Oh Great Falls, never change.

He learned English from Monty Python, allegedly. Explains a lot.

But no mention of the fact that you cribbed the article’s first line from a Roxette greatest hits album title?

I wish I could give this comment more stars.

Watching qualifying, one of the riders (I can’t remember who, and I haven’t had a chance to re-review the race yet) had a bit of a front end wash out, and to save it he had to take his upper foot off the peg for a moment to catch his balance. It might even have been Marquez. In any case, the maneuver, lean angle, and…
