Much newer system. Also most of the city itself was rebuilt post-WWII, allowing for much more proactive civic planning. Not a like-for-like comparison.

In New York, the cost of being a civilized human being is in the hundreds of thousands a year.

• Commuters will probably be exposed to less human waste

Yo dawg...I heard you like shopping for car buyers who shop for cars.

I’m still stuck on why someone with a 620 credit score is buying a new car.

THAT is the travesty.

Boeing has offered this kind of option - called “Sky Loft” for beds in the above-cabin empty space on their 747-8 for a decade or more, but no airline has ever taken then up on it. These parts of the planes are harder to get to, and are windowless. They are also harder to evacuate from. Airlines have figured that…

Just checking: so are we now calling jalopnik reporters? I thought we called it blogging. B/c you know grammer n spelin and shtuff.

I love stories like this where you guys are asked or threatened by lawyers to not publish something, and not only do you go ahead and do it but publish another article about how they tried to stop you. These types of stories should be filed under the tag “Pity the fool”.

Why don’t we take this out back, Bibendum wants blood

Goodyear: “Your Honor, despite the fact that all the livestock have in fact left the barn, we would like to request that the barn door now be secured.”

I remember complaints about Apu from when he first showed up. It wasn’t that it was okay back then to make fun of people with accents - but the people who were hurt by it just weren’t considered important enough to matter. That’s pretty much the definition of racism.

Agree. It’s always been problematic. Also having Lisa say, “It’s hard to say. Something that started decades and was applauded and inoffensive is now politically incorrect. What can you do?” is extremely out of character for her and something she would never say. Seems intentional to add some sort of intellectual…

It’s amazing how a simple change makes the design so much more cohesive

So... You’re saying that we should have taken this up with the WTO instead of randomly throwing tariffs on products instead?

I think that’s because it’s a refresh, not a whole new car.

“This front end is proportioned all wrong. Let’s shrink the headlights, make the upper grill bigger and the lower grill smaller”, said the designer, forgetting he was working on the Camaro and not the Malibu

Disclaimer - I’m not a Vin Diesel fan boy - he’s made some trash films, but to say that the FF wasn’t making big cash until Fast 5 is a bit of a reach. They were successful enough to make 4 movies before he appeared in the franchise. That’s like saying, the Bond films didn’t start making big cash until Daniel Craig…

Just want to let you know I convinced Mom and Dad to start drug testing you before you’re sent off to military school. I told them you were smoking “The Pot”.

“He absolutely refuses to allow any of his movies to have sad or dark endings.”

Shut the fuck up, Martian Law! You always take Dwayne’s side, ever since we were kids! I am SICK of your SHIT! I get no respect around here!
