"I love it!"

Finally, someone addresses the attack-by-giant-crab concerns I've always had.

Actually, pretty close to you - well, if you want a legit truck, then no. But, imagine this thing loaded with beach meetup gear and your friends. Adventure vehicle, and what not. Probably good at camping, too.

Here comes Mr. Angry Eyes!

Apple cores: tried this after reading a 'eat the apple from the poles, not the side first' life hack. Works okay; you pull the stem out of course, and need to watch for seeds. About half the time some of the core is just too hard or bitter, but I end up with much less waste.

Infinitely and always rising crash test standards.

Now it is MACHO! And TUFF!

Blame crash standards and expensive exotic materials. When you have steel to work with, you have to raise the belt line into the stratosphere.

Ewwww!

I'm not even a big fan of that, but hell at least it looks like *something*. This actual Mustang looks like... one of those knock-off cars they use in Grand Theft Auto that sort of look like the real thing, but more generic.

I have no beef with them. In fact, I give anybody that has a driving job (truck, bus, etc.) a decent berth and respect as they have to be on the road for many more hours than I do. I just let them do their thing and circulate around them.

It took me a while to get used to Cali traffic, where freeway lanes will come to a complete stop but others will keep flowing. Very strange, very dangerous.

Unfortunately all cars look like this now as the escalation of crash worthiness vs. weight continues.

I posted this elsewhere, but please, let us imagine a different world where ever stringent crash standards don't change year over year, and cars don't need to be 6 feet tall with flat fronts and backs:

That is the giugiaro mustang concept, which, because it does not have to stand up to insane crash standards, didn't need to be built like a brick.

Wait... that's an Arrowhead bottle, are we sure this is a still from the movie and not a pic snapped on set between takes?

I agree with your statement, and would like to add that I thought that it was a clunky bit of writing to introduce that concept and try to power her character through an arc that I'm not sure even needed to be there.

An Ohio chain called Donatos has fantastic thin crust pizza, for a chain. I miss it.

I noticed this as well; while the pictures aren't dated, I would have thought CRT tv production worldwide has dropped so low as to make them more expensive by virtue of no longer being mass produced (and LCDs are made by the ton in south Korea as well), you'd think you could get a 19" LCD tv there for very little.
