Oh come on.  Mercedes is undoubtedly going to go with some hybrid camper/convertible thing of which only 17 were made in 1977.

That is the greatest thing I’ve ever read.

Oh for fuck’s sake.  You anti-vaxxers are loons.

Same, Toyota or Lexus. My folks owned them (my dad drove a first-model-year ‘99 RX-300, and it was still going strong when he passed away last year), and I have for decades.

Particularly so many of them are about the drivers of specific models, forgetting that correlation does not equal causation.  I’d guess the real answer is most drivers aren’t very good.

Streaming will never have a higher bitrate than physical media. They’ll just use increasingly efficient compression codecs.

“Who is Lisa Catera?”

This is crazy. If I don’t clean my ears, the wax builds up until it plugs the canal and my hearing goes to shit.

This.  Went through some health issues a couple of years ago and my back yard got overgrown.  The local municipality issued me a ticket, with dire warnings about what would happen if I didn’t address it.

Had a ‘96 back in the day. Great family hauler. Only caveats are (A) don’t try to go up California hills with 6 or 7 adults, and (B) have fun working on it.

I went to a private high school (early 80's) that didn’t offer driver’s ed, so I had to go to a private driving school. My parents chose it; I have no idea how.

Nothing substantive to add, other than you have awesome taste in cars.

The Qashqai

I honestly had no idea that Raimi did For Love of the Game.

Make sure you have plenty of coffee on hand when you watch For Love of the Game.  Even John C. Reilly can’t make it interesting.

“Do you ever feel evil?”

You get a star just for referencing The Three Doctors.

“They were promoted because they were good at their old job, not because they can manage.”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I would rock a Cygnet.  I would be the absolute worst.  Aston-Martin apparel, keychain; basically any branded accessories I could get my hands on.  And I would valet park that fucker at every opportunity, just so that when I leave, I could hand my ticket to the valet and say,…

Immersion.
