Exactly. It’s why I never let my kids watch this. It’s basically Wealth Doctrine for Kids. 

Came here to post this. BMW E9 is for my money the best-looking BMW ever made and among the best-looking cars ever made period, and while prices are climbing, $125K will easily put you in a nicely restored one with money left over.

The parking lot at Apple was full of R8s, so checks out.

I see them occasionally in the Bay Area. I don’t think anyone bought one at list— I think they wanted close to $100K — but they sold for next to nothing because they couldn’t get rid of them, so I think that helped.

I remember seeing. It should have titled “We’ve Been Crazy Rich in Hollywood for so Long We’ve Completely Lost Touch With Reality.”

Right. But again, in auctions and online sales, the term “restomod” is often broadly used to described these types of vehicles — they’re not that genre specific.

You don’t watch too many car auctions on TV, do you? :)

Restomod? But where’s the purple, orange, and lime green paint scene? Where are the 22" chrome wheels? Where’s the undrivable 800-hp crate motor? Where’s the interior from a ‘03 Escalade covered in tan (always tan) ostrich hide? Where are the seven subwoofers? Where are the airbags? Where. Are. The. Airbags?!

What I want to know is why a guy with “millions” in cash, houses and 30 collector cars is driving around with the weed? Jesus Christ, Einstein, you can’t find some neck tat low rent to do that for you?

If you use Gainesville as your hub, there are some nice (kinda) hilly drives in each direction, lots of oaks, moss and water, and plenty of springs to stop at for a dip. 

I don’t know about that so much, but in high school, I recall being relieved when I found a group of kids blasting Rush in a parking lot or at a party because a) they were usually nice, so you didn’t have to worry about any dudebro macho horseshit, and b) they were usually smart, so you’d have something to talk about…

I honestly think it’s a good deal.

Fair enough. I think it depends on which version of Rush you, prefer, too. I’m a fan of the more polished straight-ahead rock of that era than the super proggy stuff before or the more synth-driven AOR that immediately followed, so for me Signals musically is really engaging.

A medianoche is slightly different. Instead of the usual crumby white Cuban bread, it’s made with an egg bread similar to challah. I personally think it’s the much better option.

This is my biggest complaint with most restaurants’ take on Cuban dishes. They take something that is simple and unbelievably delicious and transform it into something upscale and absolutely awful.

They were dorks who performed dorky prog rock — the dorkiest of all rock subgenres — for dorks.

While I don’t think it’s their best album, Permanent Waves is definitely my favorite. “Freewill” just kicks complete and total ass, and while I’m usually not a fan of Neil Peart’s bloated junior-high notebook sci-fi odysseys and Randian horseshit, I have to admit that I find the opening verse of “Natural Science” to…

Signals? Really? Honestly, while at the time it was seen as a lesser album when compared with Moving Pictures, I think history has proved it to be essentially Moving Pictures II — I think it’s just as good and consistent, and easily their second-best album. It’s peak Rush.

...a sketch which would have been better without the emphasis on peeing in bottles.

Yeah, it’s awful. It sounds like a UPS delivery truck. Only not that good.
