I was always taught that you never go big-big or small-small; essentially, although those gears are physically present (and advertised), they are not actually designed to be used.

Also, friction shifting cures a lot of ills.

Also also, I’m using a 9-speed Deore XT rear derailer (sorry, I don’t type French) and rear…

I think he misspelled “Trump voters,” and:

Yup.

I like it, but I think the price is stupid. This thing was what, $26-27k new? And now it’s ten years old? No thanks.

Jaguar XJ40 estate.

The structure of this was beautiful. The Purple Holy Ghost part raised me up, the Joe Blow letter got me down (seriously, reading that shit was painful), and then Smurf’s story brought me back to the mountaintop.

Love your work, man.

(H)e frequently made violent, threatening posts on an unnamed social media platform.

Love this. It’s too damned expensive. CP.

Sounds stupid to me, but I am not the intended market for Formula Drift. Hope it works out better than all of NASCAR’s dumbass rule changes.

I like it, I just don’t $3500 like it.

Hitler didn’t make the trains run on time. IBM did. And made a shit-ton of money off of it, too.

As I said in another post on the site, the Democratic party needs to draft its own Potsdam Declaration regarding the Republican party. And it needs to hold to it. Refuse to deal with unrepentant Trumpists (looking at you, Lindsey; you too, Mitch). They have proven, time and again, that they cannot be trusted. Until…

Man, I hate it when you do those headlines. It worries me that you’ve lost your mind, or something.

And if they’re unrepentant Trumpists, fuck them. The Democratic party needs to make its own Potsdam Declaration and stick to it. Sadly, I doubt they will.

But, I’m not a Democrat.

I don’t think he could. I think he is a sociopath, and fundamentally incapable of making those choices.

Found the VW tech.

STFU Addison. I’m sure Senator Cooper would be ashamed of how his intern has warped the Senate into a tool to destroy democracy in the United States.

Thank-you for showing up. I wish more people who look like me had stayed home; honestly, I’m getting to the point where party affiliation should assign your voting rights. You Republican? Well, since you want to take the USA back to the 18th century, you get to vote under 18th century rules; you have to be a…

Stupid like a fox. 

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Depends on the grits, actually. There’s almost always salt added to the water, and some people use milk or cream in the cooking process. So if they don’t need it, they don’t need it. I will admit that chain restaurant grits always need something added.
