For all the Texans who will be chiming in:
Buc-ee’s.
It’s a like a mega-truck stop sexed up the Sheetz/Wawa twins in a Super-Target store. They have pretty decent food (prepared on-site all day) including brisket and bbq sammiches, tacos, and kolaches, plus several steer’s worth of jerkies and literal walls of packaged…

It’s like a truck stop merged with a department store merged with a restaurant merged with grocery store merged with, well everything else. But friendly to car going folks.

The core issue isn’t competition, but rather the fact that his allocation is going to be reduced. So even if customers choose the plaintiff’s dealership over the new guy, Nissan isn’t going to let him buy enough inventory to sell to them.

You read a bit of Ayn Rand and now think you see the world clearer than a man that has decades of experience running a car dealership? What next, Catcher in the Rye?

No matter where you are in Seattle, you’re probably never more than a block or two away from a teriyaki restaurant. Every one has basically the same menu, and you’re probably going to order chicken teriyaki over white rice and a tiny salad on the side.

Yeah, I too would be confused if someone I called names on Twitter didn’t want to publicly support me.

He’s straight up Ben Shapiro level, not merely Republican. He’s mentally ill if he thinks he gets any seat at the adult table.

Musk has to be a Republican. If there’s one thing the Repubs love, it’s “false equivalence”. So Musk is ignored (omigosh!), so he feels he has to go on the warpath—a page right out of (failed) Dictator Donald’s playbook.

Narcissist manchild. Overwhelming success isn’t enough, he needs praise on demand too.

Or, a Bond villain HQ like the Liparus.

“The man’s relative is a welder and left his welding equipment in the trunk of the car, which lead to the explosion.”

Am I willing to take apart an historic landmark - that people explicitly don’t want disassembled - to move my boat? Fuck yeah.

Shadow vessel? Call this what it is - the man is creating his own fleet.

Whenever my dad grilled, he’d snack on pieces of raw beef. It horrified me, but he got me to try it once...and it was delicious! Granted, this was Korean kalbi (short ribs), so it was marinated and didn’t taste like raw meat so much as beef-flavored mochi. My dad never got sick from it, and I wonder if it’s because…

This. People expect society to function a certain way, and are a bit tolerant/flexible for a short time (esp. in a big city). But when it goes on and on and there’s no intention of stopping or even pulling back, some people will snap. 

Someone is going to get hurt if the police don’t start doing their fucking job in Ottawa.  

People want affordable cars, the Ford Maverick proves it. Tiny city cars though, nobody wants. For the same price on the used market you could get a regular ol sedan or a perfectly normal crossover, instead of a tiny, look at how poor I am, compact city car. Me personally, I love the tiny, look at how poor I am ,…

Do the Ascent and Outback have the same transmission and gearing as the WRX?

A coworker and former Marine put it succinctly: “at least I’m not being shot at”.
