Red Bull is the Trump of energy drinks; they just go around slapping their name on all the great stuff other people are doing with RB’s money.

One minor point of difference, though, is that Red Bull is actually successful at what it does. And it honors contracts.

It’s worth noting the Mclaren also makes the control electronics for all the F1 teams. They’ve got more than a little experience putting together high-powered ignition control systems.

“HEY! Would you film me doing a burnout in my uber-expensive sports car?! BUT PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU DO IT IN PORTRAIT, AND TURN AWAY RIGHT WHEN SOMETHING CRAY-CRAY HAPPENS?!? Cha thanks brah. Watch this it’s gonna be epic!”

More than a decade after phones were equipped with cameras capable of recording, most in high…

Among the numerous typos and grammar errors is this gem of a passage - I can’t tell if this lawsuit was from 2016 or 2017 and I bet you can’t either:

Not the absolute coolest but I came across this group of GT-Rs and a trio of Lambos parked in Portland last summer...

Because the system or systems you have used are sub-par it does not equate to all bus systems being of the same caliber. I ride TriMet here in Portland and it’s mostly legit.

Paired with a decent bike (or I suppose even a scooter given the topic here) there isn’t much of greater Portland that isn’t within reach -…

This 100% right here. If you could find a way to grab a couple hundred thousand dollars, pad your resume and make a bunch of friends in the startup world, you’d push garbage like this into the street too. Don’t worry, you’d justify it to yourself by repeating, over and over, “they would have spent that money on…

yeah and maybe that one guy shouldn’t stand in front of where the car is going instead of standing there with his jack and stick.

Dude, watch NASCAR if you want ‘hide behind the wall’ bullshit. When an F1 pitstop doesn’t go perfectly, the cost of that failure is high for a reason...

*DRUMS FINGERS IMPATIENTLY*

While you were watching Bottas and Vettle scrap, Hamilton cut like 6 seconds off the lead in those last few laps. Something to be said about better communication from the pit wall on that, since Hammy spent like 8 laps trying to figure out what the team wanted him to do...

Because Stef Schrader hasn’t found enough to bitch about yet, is why...

While Scottsdale may have some areas built around them, Sedona is like Concentrated Silver Shaman because of the larger population and money in Arizona. Santa Fe is like one of those struggling beach towns compared to Sedona, all dusty and ramshackle, and it’s really not by anywhere else you want to go unless you’re…

New Mexico, and the people who live there, can be summed up with a visual memory I have from not terribly long ago, on the very northern edge of Rio Rancho, ABQ’s meth-lab addled northern neighbor:

Counterpoint: A simple soak (yes, even your short grain rice) will do wonders for the taste and texture of your rice, if you really want to get wild with it, soak your rice in chicken stock/broth for 1/2 hour before cooking, using the broth you soaked in. Don’t rinse.

aaaaand buy a rice cooker.

Don’t forget the brakes and brake lines. My 2000 T&C came with lines that were specially made to disintegrate if unused for more than 3 days.
Eventually, I just removed the rear lines, put a plug in the antilock distributor, and drove with only front brakes because I got sick of replacing the rear lines.
Seriously,…

I spent a lot of time crawling on train cars that were stopped near my house in the middle of nowhere when I was a kid, and I’ve worked unloading and shuttling cars here in Portland (Toyotas) right off the boat...
The ones in the train cars aren’t usually sitting around for long, not when it can be helped. In the…

Nope, most dealerships sub-contract their detailing services and those guys are generally busy cleaning. At all the dealerhips I’ve worked with - as a detailer - there was usually a younger intern or assistant or w/e tasked with taking photos, which they’d send to another company that handled the online sales and…

First thought: Having recently bounced off the side of a Kia that turned right across my bike lane as I sped down a hill ~20+mph, I can honestly say this dude is fucked in the head. If I hadn’t been wearing my helmet (which I almost never did except the day I got hit) I wouldn’t be writing this right now, if I was…

OH REALLY - the asshat in the left lane is drunk with an open container? This is my surprised face. It’s similar to the angry one I wear whenever I come up on one of these lazy fcks and ask myself why they think it’s okay.
I should just accept that they’re really stupid, and probably drunk.

Noooo, not really. I’ve been involved (at a distance thankfully) with several breweries that lasted less than 2 years before closing. Their beer was terrible and the owner/brewer refused to recognize that small-batch homebrew recipes need significant modifications when using larger industrial equipment.

For example…
