Now if she set it up so the RGB crap only gets active when the prosecutor is talking and the judge doesn’t figure it out, that might be smart. Way back in the day when everyone smoked all the time, there was a lawyer who would stick a length of wire into his cigar. The wire would support the ash so it didn't fall off,…

In fairness, it was gonna fail even without 9/11. No one goes to the airport to shop and eat. No one wants to overpay for shitty chain food when they can pay normal prices for shitty chain food anywhere but the airport.

Not to mention that a Falcon full of fertilizer will fuck up a building pretty good and guess what? No TSA stopping you from getting on one of those.

Good point. In truth, I’ve never really mentally readjusted to the idea that cars are heavier now than they were when I got my first 2nd-gen CRX. :D

He’s attacking cars. You know, 2,000 pound death machines. You could run him over long before you could even get a handgun out and aimed. Not to mention you’d have to shoot through the windshield f you didn’t want to get out of the car.

Yep, it was a normal controlled descent that wasn’t even particularly fast. Well within normal descent rates for normal operations.

Well yeah, how are you supposed to breathe with a mask over your nose!? ;)

Mazda Furai:

Except that it’s dumber than that. They think this is their country, but they think that thanks to an imaginary contract taken out on their behalf by the government when they were born which creates a corporate fiction with the same name as theirs, that corporate fiction is responsible for dealing with the…

It should be pointed out that doing this doesn’t always work. Philando Castile did it, and got murdered anyway.

Usually I’m right there with you because cops are entirely too trigger-happy in this country. But in this case, I think yes absolutely there was justification to shoot him. Sovereign Citizens believe they are not subject to any laws, and have in the past shown themselves willing to kill for that belief. A man and his…

Yeah. Honestly a good rule of thumb is that any system which requires people to not be stupid in order to work needs to be redesigned.

I want to know what kind of funny math they’re using that says trains derailing all the time is cheaper than just maintaining the damn tracks.

I dunno if you’ve ever lived in DC, but I did back in the day and lemme tell ya, you couldn’t pay me to drive there regularly. I got places much faster just hopping the Metro, my car didn’t get the shit beaten out of it (something about the people in that town makes them genetically incapable of parallel parking…

Acela isn’t primarily meant for one-off tourist runs. Commuting via Acela, saving half an hour each run means you save 50 hours a year. And you don’t have to drive, which means you aren’t being stressed out by idiot traffic and can just relax or, if you must, work on the way in and out. You also don’t have to figure…

Nope. And that’s not a bad thing, really. Genesis is coming out with some truly great looking designs these days.

I can’t believe no one’s mentioned the Bricklin SV-1:

We used to call the 5.0 Mustangs “Five-Slows” back then.

I think that body style’s aged OK: ;)

Neither was the Impala, but it’s been mentioned several times in here already. And someone also posted a Jeep, of all things. I don’t think anyone knows what a sports car is anymore. ;)
