I dare you to go back and watch the one from John Woo and then say it’s “thrilling.” That film is so terrible. John Yoo hates his audience, or at least thinks you’re a goddamn moron. And to make it worse, the thing is just boring. The other movies are pretty good.

But . . . the country west of the Mississippi does exist. It’s almost as if existence doesn’t require reasons because existence is prior to reasons.

He pretended to be a badass biker when he was a decrepit old man. It’s the dissonance between what he was trying to be and what he actually was that is the problem. I don’t have a problem with goth kids, mustaches, or Civics. Teenagers are going to try out identities, adults want to be fashionable, some people love…

I have driven this go-kart track. I grew up in the area and when I was a kid, we used to go to Branson regularly to drive go-karts. But things were different back then, or at least seem so in my mind. There used to be tracks with dual motor karts that you needed a driver’s license to drive. This spiral track is . . .…

Cars often kill people outside the vehicle.

Who cares? You’re not making a substantive point. The fact is that Republicans always supported Bush.

Truth.

Gallup polls are based on self-identification. /shrug. Look again at the CBS News article you linked to in order to substantiate the 22% approval rating. Key quote:

It’s ridiculous. The whole Bush-wasn’t-conservative-that’s-why-he-failed thing is just beyond stupid. They—conservatives—are the people who wanted the Iraq war. They even called this policy by its obvious name: neo-conservativism. Now they want us to believe that it just wasn’t conservative to start the Iraq war. Do…

“The only people that have had a change of heart about him are Democrats.”

Dude, did you look at the gallup link you put up? It says that in June 2016, Bush’s approval rating among Republicans was 75% It’s up to 82% as of June 2017. The fact that he didn’t campaign doesn’t really say much. People were tired of GWB in 2009 and staying out of the media is a good way to let your side recover.…

What would be the point? Lincoln talked about this when faced with the actual secession of nearly half the country. His point: Even if the country split up, none of these states are going anywhere. People are still going to travel from there to where ever you live. We’re still going to trade with each other. We’re…

Being old and pretending you’re a mean, hog-riding, sonuvagun out to stick it to the man, or whatever, is embarrassing.

*elderly men.

Every year in DC there is the “Rolling Thunder” rally when these assholes take over the entire National Mall. I left DC 5 years ago, but the image that has always stuck in my mind from that event is a man, dressed like a member of a biker gang—black leather club jacket, chaps, bandana, big beard, the whole outfit—but…

To clarify, though, there were not 50 states in 1942. Both Hawaii and Alaska became states in 1959.

Everyone seems to think these are basically the perfect car. So, I guess my question is, what’s wrong with ‘em?

Gotcha, thanks.

Ok, so what did you mean when you said that it would be “great for all the older cars still on the road requiring 87 octane”? You seemed to suggest that the older cars would either be a) harmed or b) made obsolete. But neither is true if you can just use a higher octane fuel with no problems. Potentially more…

Isn’t that a minimum required rating? Maybe I have just misunderstood all along, but I always thought you could put in higher octane if you wanted, but you didn’t have to.
