each time I see tips on how to dispute and navigate medical bills, I laugh in socialized medicine

Gestüt ist stud farm, but Stute is mare. Stutte is not a (current) German word. Stuttgarts original name is Stuokarten, after Hugo de Stuokarten, so linking the name to the (real) royal stud farms looks like false etymology.

the benz looks like it’s melting.

Man.  Negative nancy over here.  What’s your deal against Volvo?

Preferences are personal of course, but hard disagree on that. The Volvo is much more refined looking, it’s understated but still moderately aggressive. The Benz is attractive to people who already like their design language but I just don’t see it.

You can have AWD on the V60, provided you spring for the $67,000 Polestar...

Hillary Clinton has been leaving a trail of bodies in her wake for decades, so running over something similar in size to a small child wouldn’t be exactly newsworthy

Yep, the guy thinks Blade Runner was a documentary for sure. 

Well done. I always try to coordinate everything with a gas stop, including the mostly-illegal act of going inside to pee while the pump is clicked onto the auto-detent (or if there isn’t one, just use a water/coke bottle or the gas cap). My game is to try to get back before it clicks off...because it MIGHT NOT CLICK…

If a single piece of food was acquired from outside the car or if anyone peed outside the vehicle, there’s room for improvement. Seems like the pinnacle would be having some of those support people waiting at the pumps to fill your tank asap. Those pit stops COMPLETELY DESTROY YOUR PACE PLEASE JUST GET BACK IN THE CAR…

I kinda like it. Ya’ll can complain about the big kidneys all you want, but it’s more “heritage” than the tiny ones.

This shift was much more dramatic in computers and electronic/industrial components. Ivory/beige/off-white is the color of engineering which doesn’t care about what it looks like and has to take a modicum of everyday office abuse without showing scuffs quite as easily as white; it is also an easier paint color to…

All I see is another “What color is this dress?” scenario—especially with a color as subtle as this ivory. Let’s go down the list of what affects the images we end up viewing:

What is this, 2009? Of course you can’t get a new Ferrari with a stick, because all the sticks have been used beating this dead horse.

As an early 80's baby and ‘growing up’ in the 90s, Ferrari could not do wrong for the first half of my life. They were all achingly beautiful, and aside from the (time appropriate) over-the-top Testarossa which I adored and the ‘ahem’ controversial F50 which I also loved in a way - Pininfiarina seemed incapable of…

Not really fair as the Monza twins are some of the prettiest cars out there...
