Am I missing something, because the chicken in that photo looks burned as hell...

No. This movie fucking sucks.

Also, Tabasco is the ideal hot sauce for a Bloody Mary. There can be no questioning this. 

I used to like Cholula, but now I think it’s one of the worst hot sauces. It’s got a weird ketchupy flavor that I just don’t care for.

In New York, something north of 90% of all BMWs sold are AWD. There you go. 

Lol nothing says practicality like having to tow anything bigger than a couple bags of groceries!

Oh come on man! I own one of these things! It is not designed for road trips! It is a fun as hell, useful little car, but it sucks for road trips.

The manual is geared for better acceleration, for what it’s worth. The top-end gearing though is punishing. At 80 the engine is screaming. 

I have one, and it’s an amazing car for everything it can do, but driving it on long road trips is pretty awful. I’ve driven it from NYC to Canada and to Virginia Beach and I would never buy another one.

This is true. It is a painful car for long trips. 

The Fit is a great car, but on long road trips, our 2009 Sport manual is miserable. The gear ratios are such that the car is designed to cruise in 5th gear at 55 mph. You going 75 on the highway? Have fun with 4000 rpm the whole time. The auto has taller gears and is not the same in that regard.

Yeah it’s fucking bullshit. A luxury car maker nickel and dimeing you for shit that is standard on downmarket cars. Good for you for finding a workaround.

The lumbar is kind of a big deal in those bimmers - the seats have never been great.

Yeah several years ago I was cross shopping CPO 328s against new 320s, and even though the 320 had the manual that I wanted, I couldn’t wrap my head around spending more than $30k for a car without power seats. Like I know it’s not a big deal, but having the nav, leather, power seats and whatever else came with the

Are watches the same as cars? You’re not going to pay a lower price for a watch at a manufacturer’s boutique because those watches are sold at tons of stores, and the manufacturer doesn’t want to compete with their own distribution channels. Same with jewelry and mattresses and whatever other examples you’re going to

I had a Chevy dealer once spill oil all over my engine during an oil change on my Aurora. They then steam cleaned the engine, which totally fried the internal circuitry. I had that car going in and out of that dealer for months, with them trying to tell me to just sell the car already because it was 7 years old.

What are you talking about man? I’m responding to your idea that you’re somehow going to get a better deal relative to the wholesale cost of the car by going to a dealer, who needs to make money on the transaction, too. That’s dumb, on its face.

Yeah, but like every affordable monitor is HDMI

What you don’t want piano black interior materials? At least 7% of people do, and this is our target consumer!

Underwhelmed by the exterior and overwhelmed by the interior. What crack are these people smoking?
