Except for hauling stuff around my Fantasy Island estate, I have no idea why I’d want this box-on-wheels. Can’t get more basic. And 44 horsepower? I think some lawn tractors have more than that, so you ain’t getting on any freeways if you’re semi-sane.

As someone else mentioned, this isn’t displacing a Chevy Bolt purchase; this is displacing a gas guzzler.   This is a win by all accounts.

This vehicle is far from perfect, and the weight is a real issue, but I see this as a first step in a revolution. It’s not for me, but that that doesn’t mean I want it to fail. By their nature, EVs are expensive, but new technology always is. They have to start somewhere, and as a long range product switchover, using…

I really don’t understand why this is so much worse than so many of the cars we claim to love on here.

Jalopnik: We hate people with money, cars, trucks and EVs But we love brown stickshift wagons, reposting 7 year old posts and slideshows.

I really hate this thing, but I’d rather see a Hummer EV over a coal rolling F350 brodozer with a Carolina squat that has never hauled a thing in its life.

Scotty’s Brewhouse (RIP) had a burger called the Shewman Special that had peanut butter, bacon and (critically) jalapenos. The heat and acidity of the jalapenos cut through the richness of the burger and peanut butter and created this really lovely experience.

Leaving aside any actual merits of the tax suspension (not many!), do politicians really believe anyone in this polarized climate is changing their vote or deciding to come out and vote in November over a temporary 18 cent reduction in gas prices?

“ Now “led” by a madman more psychotic that Stalin.”

every day is a new “normal” these days. 

“We’ll have the meeting, in a public place, so he’s comfortable. The Oscars, for example. Then, he makes a joke about my wife. I get up, shoot him in the face.”

Cutting that was of itself a masterclass in filmmaking. Vito’s agreed to it, it’s going to happen, but the ugly street-level stuff always happens out of sight.

Land Rover must employ several full-time hypnotists to haunt the wealthy neighborhoods of North America. There is no better explanation for the perseverance of the brand because those cars suck, period, and there is no way for a person who knows one or more Land Rover owners to avoid hearing horror stories.

I think that it would be fun to pretend to be in the mafia for a couple of hours, but that was all. “Everybody wants to live like a gangster, but nobody wants to die like one.”

It’s not just Godfather superfans. I’ve read reviewers, even today, who miss the point. Points. The squeaky-clean war hero dragged into the family “business” against his father’s plans, a Greek (OK, Italian) tragedy in the making. Bad things done by good people, and vice versa. Sibling rivalry. The hypocrisy of…

I’m sure plenty of people miss the point, but most just probably see it and think “it’d probably be cool to be in the Mafia.”

The moment the Devonte-inspired Loquareeous turns and catches the viewer (or Earn?) creeping up on him is just such a fantastic moment. It felt like the tables were being turned on the viewer. 

I don’t know. I think you’re leaping to a wild conclusion that Glover is rejecting all criticism, vs rejecting criticism from people whose opinions don’t need to be catered to.

Episode one was stunning. Christopher Farrar was incredible, as was the woman who played the dark-haired lesbian mom, who I also recognized from Lovecraft Country playing a very similar type. As I was watching the episode unfold, I slowly started realizing the real life story it was pulling from. As dark as the…

I’m ashamed that the tragic story of Devonte Hart and his siblings wasn’t on my radar at the time. Tomorrow, March 26, marks four years to the day that the Hart family’s vehicle was found over a cliff. Devonte’s body still has never been found; how I want to believe he escaped like Loquareeous.
