I always imagined it was something like magnets with the same polarity pushing away from each other. 

Joke’s on us. It’s a crossover.

I’m a leggy 6'2" and once I was in it was okay, but I had a hard time getting my right knee under and past the steering wheel.

Subaru Brat. In not very long at all those seats in the back will be perfectly acceptable places for the kids to ride.

64 Lincoln Continental convertible with suicide doors. Can it be had for less than 80k? I’m too lazy to search for it.

Agreed, the Impala too. I probably wouldn’t care if they just kept calling the Monte Carlo and the Impala the Lumina or Corsica since that’s essentially what they are - then use the names on the Australian RWD GM products. 

Shirts hang so they’re facing me when I open the closet. We have one long closet with a narrow-ish door in the middle. My girlfriend’s stuff is on the right side so her shirts face left (facing you) when you open the door. My stuff is on the left so my shirts face right (facing you) when you open the door. Which way…

This is probably the best opening to an article I’ve read here in quite a long time. Well done sir!

These stalls, they have dividers between them? What’s the problem? If we’re talking about urinals, yes, keep your distance. With stalls, you have your own little poop room.

Treadmills are dangerous. Best to avoid them.

Well, now you’ve got me wondering... When I worked at a Suzuki dealer, we had the last model XL7, which was a GM product. It was basically whatever the Cadillac crossover/wagon/SUV thing was at the time. This used a transverse-mounted V6 that sometimes had a transfer case for AWD. Not that anyone has ever cared about…

Headphones: I really like my $20 earbuds with the ear-hook thingy that keeps them in place and a regular-old wire that I stick down the collar of my shirt and out the bottom so the phone can stay in my pocket while I jam out to podcasts at the gym (I have the hardest time with music because I can’t not match my…

Golf. I went on a trip with a bunch of friends to drive all over California, and after paying the 45 damn dollars to drive a car onto Pebble Beach I joked to my crew that I needed them to point out anyone about to tee off so I could blow the horn. The golf-playing guy on the trip got very mad.

Wow, I just learned a lot of things!

This is what the pointy beak grille covers look like to me.

It looks like the steering wheel has absolutely nothing to do with the direction the car is moving. Apart from the obvious slides, I was having a hard time figuring out what direction the front wheels were pointing.

Is it not because Toyota doesn’t want to warranty a Subaru engine with the added wear and tear of a turbo?

I don’t speak Italian, but does this car have four vulvas?

IT’S GARISH!

I went on a study abroad trip to Poland a few years ago and made an honest effort to learn at least a few phrases and things so I wouldn’t be that kind of American. I had the following three notable experiences:
