It’s cute, yes, but also somewhat strained, at least in the older episodes where she appeared. It reminds me of talking with a few Russian and German people I know who are ESL. Short quick comments and you don’t notice it, get into a conversation and it really starts sounding like they’re forcing the words out, which…

Unless she’s improved her English dramatically since when she appeared as a guest on Top Gear, I would in no way want to watch her as a host.

Got a car?

Old black Volvo station wagon... it was like the “next step up” for the VW fan(atic)s I used to know.

C7 Corvette. If you can go pre-owned spend the extra and get one with performance exhaust and mag-ride suspension (essentially a Z51). Best damn car on the road with just those options.

So the Porsche engineers aren’t the only ones getting fatter for “sitting around unchanged for half a century”.

Props for sourcing that building photo at the top of the article. I think I know which one that is, or at least where it is... amusingly using Fry’s Electronics as my mental-map starting point.

I think you’d find a good sized chunk of Democrats would want this setup as well.

So they’re cutting straight to Survivor mode to see who they can weed out as the new trio.

I was in Vegas just a couple of weeks ago, I think they were filming these scenes just then.

Nice! My sister’s got a ‘68 in baby blue with a white top. Neat old ride.

The Animated Series (and the Phantasm movie) are to this day what I consider “definitive Batman”... that trumpet set when he puts on the mask, chillingly to the point.

This is what mobile gaming is... a free to play / pay to win grind. It’s like a FTP MMO, without any of the actual fun.

There’s a ~35 mile TFR originating from the stadium for both small aircraft and drones. All my pilot friends are planning on being out of town for the weekend (the price-gouging at the small airports aside).

This is why Goose died in Top Gun. When the ejection handle was pulled, the canopy did not clear and the RIO—always first in the ejection sequence—did not have a clear path upwards.

Could’ve at least given him the BFG9000...

I’m amazed people would be actually spending money on that cheat-fest. I bought V for the 360, played the heck out of it, and then got it for the One, replayed the story, but soon got tired of how crappy the online experience was. I had zero interest in paying for it again when it finally came out on PC, regardless of…

Will there be mod support at launch, because the important question needs to be asked: How long til the Barney mod?

They had it right with the first xB, and then just pissed all over the customization community they’d built.

“Cold, gimmicky nightmare”.
