ehh, wasnt a fan

which is a shame, because full price Jack Black is only worthwhile in moderation. I can’t say I’ve ever like him in a “lead” role. Opinions vary. Mine are often unpopular

your move, Florida

EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. The consistency is pretty remarkable, tbh

you know whats funny? Before that van in ‘85 we had an Econoline cargo van that my dad bolted a bench seat in the back of, and cut part of the side out to install an aftermarket window.

No love for George “The Animal” Steele? Your time away has made you soft and weak, Drew

at first I wondered why you posted a picture of Ed Harris, then I realized Im super fucking old. Shit

In August 1985 my parents bought a Ford Econoline conversion. This thing was pretty laid out for the time, except strangely did not come with AC. But it did have fancy curtains, 4 captains chairs, a couch in the back that turned into a bed, and every other bell and whistle. They got it for $12,500. According to the…

That thing is awesome, but for that kind of dough, no way. Least not for me. I suspect VW may be on to something not bringing it over. My guess is most people who have that kind of coin to drop on an RV are either retirees or “sportsmen” and both groups will likely want more space/amenities/plush for that amount of…

Lighten up, Francis

Or, one could argue they keep auto financing loose enough so that even people with bad credit can still get a car. Maybe they figure if people have shiny new cars to drive around they’ll be distracted from the fact that the country is being sold out from underneath them?

I’m no expert but that seems suspiciously close to the time (relatively speaking) to when Nixon took us off the gold standard. Now all of a sudden, the interest can pile up and up and up and peoples wealth (on paper can be gazillions of dollars) and that wealth doesnt need to be backed by an actual commodity (or…

Im all for solidarity. Im not into blaming the “right wingers” anymore. Its just counter productive. Doesnt matter whose fault it is anymore, we just need to fix it, pronto. Blame doesnt help any of us, we all need to get our collective heads out of our collective arses. Id love to help, I think the first step is…
