“Tim Pamplin, never leave us, you really class up Metro Detroit.”

I also worked in consumer lending and loan servicing for years. While some of these practices are indeed BS (like that double payment thing) and I hate them more than I can even type, we still have to put some of the responsibility on the borrower. If someone offers you financing at credit card-levels of interest…

When I saw “Santander,” I was not surprised. Why not choose the current champions of predatory lending for your obviously predatory financing program, Nissan? Hire only the best, amirite?

Certain elements of delusion can persist even without drug use. As a kind soul already mentioned, she's described as being coherent. And if she really has been stealing away on flights for two months as a result of a drug induced delusion, it would tell in her appearance in some ways. It sounds like she just needs a…

Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the car is angled into traffic and the wheel is turned waiting for the opportunity to make the left turn?

Wonderful, another reader prompt that will indubitably make it directly into a slideshow of screenshots.Pass

An Acura Legend? What, do you sell drugs?

Alas, as the mysteries are hidden in a “slideshow” they will remain mysteries.

Some loans…

This is pretty much how NYC operates. Subsidies go to the well-connected people who know how to take advantage of them. Same thing happens with rent controlled apartments that are somehow rented by high-net-worth individuals or inherited to their kids...

This is a pretty unhelpful guide to a fairly complicated issue. I am mostly in agreement with you about the weakness of the city plan, but to simplify it so much and present it as a no-strings attached bailout to hedge funds, complete with some demonstrably untrue statements about the city (city officials are not…

While I agree it’s a stupid plan, your take on the whole issue is worse.

I was about to comment until you reminded me of this. I refuse to be part of the problem.

I’m just here for these comments so I can specifically NOT click on the impending slideshow.

Can’t wait to see the slideshow of all the comments. 

Lawrence is already salivating over screenshotting these posts

Some girl let me play with her boobs every day in middle school and high school (until I started driving), so I guess the school bus was pretty rad. 

HAHAHAHAHAHA no. This car could be a perfect 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO SWB with celebrity provenance offered for free with lifetime maintenance included and someone would vote it down.
