For many years medallion prices were commensurate with the potential earnings. Then they skyrocketed like a meme stock due to speculation. And yes, the gullible were fleeced. People make bad investments every day. That’ll teach them to trust bankers, salesmen, and politicians.

My ‘76 non-OBD daily driver is looking better and better.

Paying $500,000 for a taxi medallion was just like placing your life savings in Tesla stock. Everyone knows it is an artificial bubble. Why such compassion for market speculators?

I asked my Uber driver to please route around the taxi protesters.

Extreme adventure poseur trucks for virtue signalers should sell very well in Brooklyn, the perfect vehicle to drive to the opening of the next Mead Brewery.

Because roads are subject to the tragedy of the commons. I can’t send more kids to school but I can get a bigger vehicle and drive more. A basically unlimited resource that belongs to everyone is subject to abuse.

As far as I’m concerned, Franken got hosed for a badly played joke by a woman who thought it was funny at the time. And yes, the Repubs apparently think that performing and bragging about sexual abuse is just fine.

The poor moon never saw it coming.

Honda designers got a thing for the overbite. 

Jezebel bitches be brutal.

Cuomo is a Democrat and the #MeToo movement generally leans that way. There is an implicit arrangement where the #MeToo people don’t immediately don their pussy hats if the Democrat establishment pushes them out the door. That is just politics and why #MeToo has been somewhat silent up to now. I was trying to address…

This is called order parking. I worked for a startup that booked subscription customers that basically had no real commitment to ever start paying. With that documented forecast they were able to sell themselves for millions to a large company that was looking for exciting acquisition stories to tell their investors.…

The Dems are pretty good at eating their own when it comes to light that their caring icons are dirtbags, witness Al Franken, John Conyers, and Harvey Weinstein. On the other hand (no pun intended) we have President Backrub.

The bubble back was kinda cool but the tupperware bumpers and 175hp V8 were decidedly uncool.

It’s not a first generation. And the only good C3 has chrome bumpers. Both are examples of poor decision-making like sending Covid patients to live with the most vulnerable of your constituents.

Second generation entitled New York politician adored by left for being the anti-Trump turns out to be Trump-in-training. Schadenfreude indeed.

It won’t make a bit of difference. This low-life will thrive on the edge of the law his entire life, grifting and abusing the weak. He will always play the down-on-his-luck family man card and get let off lightly. He doesn’t deserve to be locked up for life but he will never change either.

This human being somehow functions, will live out his life, vote, and procreate.

The only cars I ever made money on were insurance buy-backs. They totaled my freshly restored ‘76 BMW 2002 for bodywork damage and paid $14k. I bought it back for $1000 and bribed them another $1000 for a non-salvage title. After replacing body panels and a repaint its now worth well over $20k. My ‘74 Renault 12 was…
