Bonus question: how many of them would think the A stands for Arena?

I have a documentary you should watch!

This thing screams weird, LeMons-style joke-build more than anything.

“Witnesses described how they saw the boar coming and were wondering why it wasn’t turning or changing course.”

Even if I knew everything I needed to know about *how* to care for such a machine, I don’t know how to do the things I’d need to do in order to care for it. You need to know how to fabricate parts that haven’t been made in decades, if not a full century. You need to know how to weld. How to do electrical work. I just c…

I wonder what the technical challenges of that would be. I would imagine getting up there with enough fuel left would be the biggest one.

My point was that there’s virtually no support, of any kind, short of people who already know everything. There’s no Hayes manual for these things. And no part numbers. And I don’t where to find someone who could help me. So the moment something goes wrong, I’m deeply hosed.

YOLO indeed. I’m currently reading a bio of Enzo Ferrari, and the number of people who died driving wacky, experimental, Wile E. Coyote machines is staggering.

I think a big reason young folks aren’t interested is because no one can imagine owning one, working on one, sourcing parts for one, or even knowing how to operate the thing. There are so many unknowns that I’d never chance it.

I mean, he’s no Nick Cannon, but he is decidedly... fertile.

It’s unsafe! They need to just post the warning, rather than force us to exist in this willow won’t they situation.

An excellent point!

It’s a well-established scientific fact that when the density of puns reaches a certain point, the laws of physics (and good taste) begin to break down in unusual ways. And as you can see, the the OP’s pun density was quite high, dare I say, many-fold higher than generally accepted safe limits limits.

Seriously. If you’re on a mic, you should always be mindful of what someone might think of what you’ve said at some point later on.

It has a much more pedantic ring to it.

Oxy Vinyls would be a great name for a record store/label.

I think we should just start calling by the “wrong” label until scientists get their shit together. 

My car has been in the shop at a big dealer network for weeks after getting creamed by a tow truck. Two weeks ago, they told me (paraphrasing) that there were a handful of things left and it would be ready in a few days. Then, the next week (this Monday) they told me the exact same thing. When I asked if they’d been…

All fair questions. I’m sure BMWs answer would be full of all kinds of technological hand-waving, but if you distill everything irrelevant away, you’ll be left with, “It’s an M5. It’s for people who always buy the new M5s because there are people who always buy the new M5s.”
