Yeah, my brother recently bought a 37-foot travel trailer, and after one trip towing it with his F-150 immediately went out and bought a lightly used F-350 instead. 

It’s got more red flags than a May Day parade.

I don’t even think about getting gas until the light goes on. My tank has a max range of ~425 miles if I run it more or less to fumes; the light usually goes on around 380. 

I read them with my daughter, and other than the first one, The Horse and His Boy (which only barely has anything to do with Narnia) was her favorite. 

I would like to announce that I too have launched an electric truck startup company. Please send me money.

People want very specific details because they know, deep down, that they themselves have engaged in racist/sexist/generally shitty behavior, and they are dearly hoping that Whedon was worse. If it’s similar to stuff they themselves may have done, why then it must not be that bad, because after all, aren’t they a good…

Lipstick, pigs, etc.

There is a guy near me who has a “collection” of like 5 Olds Toronados from the roughly 1988-92 era (none of which are in particularly nice condition). I am completely baffled as to why this “collection” exists, or why anyone would want it to exist. 

My mom had one of these (non-convertible version). Complete boring-mobile. 

or people who use “woke” as a pejorative

I would buy this car today if it were near me and not white. NP

You can make good money if you’re smart about when and how you do it. It’s a lousy bet as a sole source of income, but as a supplement—as a side gig—it can be quite profitable, provided you are selective with it.

If I was a lady, I don’t think I would either. Or, if I did, it would not be at night (which is when I do 99 percent of my driving).

Our next door neighbor at the time owned a Chevy dealership, and the day he drove one of these home...wow. I was I think 9 at the time, and he was the coolest person on the planet as far as I was concerned.

In “E.T.” Elliott calls his brother “penis-breath”

I’m not sure you’re qualified to opine on “interesting and fun” as you have apparently had little experience with either

Agreed...after a series of questionable experiences with tire shops, I bought my last set from my regular mechanic. They cost a bit more because they can’t get the same kind of volume discounts, but I also knew he wasn’t going to try and sell me a bunch of unnecessary stuff.

I had a shop, after they did some major engine work (they had to remachine one of the cyclinders after persistent misfiring), put a fuel injector back on incorrectly, and tried to tell me that the rattling noise (after the FI broke) and the strong odor of fuel was just “normal” after a repair like that and that it…

Without even reading the article: No

A few years ago, I was coming home around 11 pm on the interstate in the middle lane. As I crested a short hill, I came upon an SUV up against the center median, pointed the wrong way. Briefly distracted by that sight, I almost failed to notice a large...something...in the middle of my lane. In the split second…
