When I start my car for the first time of the day, I wait 20-30 seconds until the rpms drop down a bit, then I figure the car thinks it’s warmed-up. It does take longer in the winter, but never more than a minute. 

On both the Patriots and the Bucs, the receivers get away with or initiate a ton of pass interference. I thought this was a Belichik thing, but the Bucs were really good at it last year.

Yeah, someone explain to me how you can manually shift a CVT. That makes zero sense to me. 

right now vaccinated people are going around like life is back to normal

Other fun trivia. The directors wanted him to stay completely silent, but when he started his “You rang??” and “Uuuugh!” sound bites, they could not deny the charm of vocal Lurch! I think less was more for his character. Silence would have been wrong, especially with Thing being the voiceless character on the show.

No, people don’t die quickly from wounds to anywhere except the head. Even then, heads have been known to talk for a few seconds after decapitation. (Morbid, but true.)

It’s hard not to initially wonder that.

And if you sit in traffic too long, your seat will buzz to remind you to get out and walk awhile. 

Fun fact: Ted Cassidy (Lurch) was also the primary hand model for Thing. Only in Hollywood does someone say, “Hey! Let’s take the biggest guy in the room and conceal him under small furniture at awkward angles on a regular basis!”

Research shows the brain typically matures in a person’s mid twenties, with its best decision-making capability after that. (Up to a point, exceptions will apply.) Not sure how that should affect the drinking limit, THC use, or living on your own. 

Those super extended warranties rely on those inspections to pay for the eventual repairs and to discount enough people from collecting to make it financially feasible. Always read the fine print and try to think like the person selling you that “sweet deal”. 

Yea, I thought “Too bad all that work will be wasted when he crashes this plane like many RC pilots...Wait! He’s actually piloting from the COCKPIT!!!”

I just worry that this is just another way to boost the cost to purchase and own a car while coal plants and industry still pollute like heck. Regulations have been ignoring large vehicles to the detriment to sedans and coupes in the fuel regulations, and pushing right on to electric.

I see that visible lug nuts are for peasants. This made me first think those were hub caps. THAT would be plebian for sure!

Maybe I just want to park it and use it as my mobile office? 

There has to be a Viper available in this price range. I’d rather have that.

You can see my (pending) post, or I’ll copy my recipe here. (Warning: Your family might not go back to box mac n cheese)

I’m going to go one better. Stop using boxed macaroni and cheese. The flavor mostly comes from salt, butter, and milk.

Nice picture! Nice plane! 

it is a new Kinja bug
