point isnt that the car alarm will go off and your neighbors come running to help you fight off the bad guy, the idea/hope is that the bad guy will hear the car alarm and run off.

Couldn’t you have posted this BEFORE I went all Sharpie on my mac book ;-)

Good thing Samir wasn’t driving, he doesn’t pay attention to the calls.

Amen, mine are 2-4 and that would be amazing. Guilt free time “off”. The great debate in my opinion, especially with littles in the house, is what a father’s day gift’s intent is. Is it what the dad wants to do, or is it what the kids want to do for dad. Not a right or wrong answer, I just see a lot of frustration,…

Nothing.

Nothing.

If it were in Houston, it would already be gone.   

So it would have been a better car with two vestigial seats that in turn required that they lengthen the wheelbase and therefore make it less responsive? Interesting.

In an MPV or a sedan, this thinking makes sense. This is neither of those.

some kind of unspoken stereotype of black women that they have to be strong 24/7 and carry everyone on their shoulders. Fuck that. It’s OK to be afraid.

I’m so glad she told that cop she was scared of him. I feel like there’s some kind of unspoken stereotype of black folk not feeling emotions like “fear” or “sadness” or “ennui” or “existential terror”. We only get “animalistic anger” or “child-like jolliness”. And we all know what the cops zero in on and expect to…

Launches into a lecture about “you black men” and how if we’re so afraid of cops we shouldn’t be committing crimes. I should mention she pulled me over because I drove over crosswalk while a…

The creator, Jackie Carter, does not have her race identified in the article, from what I read, but: “I’m more fearful [for my son] in a car here than [when he’s serving] in Afghanistan,” makes it sound as though she is black?

They’ll still shoot us.

I see white people wearing safety pins found a new hustle.

Is the rear visibility on the hatchback as bad as it looked from your photos during the unveiling? I am really interested in this, but if my partner can’t see out of it she won’t enjoy driving it at all.

Hey, that’s the bathroom window of my old apartment in Red Hook!

Cars keep getting more expensive, the amount of money/loan payments are going to keep getting more expensive. The problem is wage growth not matching or exceeding consumer goods.

I guess what I find a bit absurd is how the critique of [Not A Manual] never really amounts to anything illuminating or interesting. When people like George deploy these tired statements, they always come off as rather empty applause lines, head nods to the community entirely designed to express a shared credibility.…
