Car that floats in water is a bad idea all the way around. Park the car and get a boat

To be fair, we did not have the internet 37 years ago. There would be problems on my cars that I would rage over if I could not Google the problem and find the unconventional solution a few clicks away.

Sports teams are worse than the auto makers. At least Ford builds shit. The Oakland Raiders still have outstanding bonds on their current Oakland Colosseum stadium and Mark Davis wants to move the team to Las Vegas in 2019 or 2020. The Oakland taxpayers will be left to pay the stadium bonds.

2bad so sad, honey.

I need a vomit gif handy for occasions like this.

Do you guys just not edit anymore?

And married people pay less!  If anything, being married made me way more likely to drive my car off a cliff. 

Can we talk about the 30% of people who think that their driving record affects their credit score? It’s astounding the financial illiteracy that’s out there.

Right or wrong the insurance companies system must be based on hard statistics and that’s why the continue to use it to set insurance rates.
