The infiniti m that no one bought... and not the Yakuza-looking one that is a total neckbeard accessory.

I think these look sad and old even in good shape. The hood lines and cabin shape are dated and bland.

Cook thighs at high temp - like 425 for like 25 mins. OR alternatively throw them in your pressure cooker in a variety of dishes and reduce the sauce to delicious curry, chipotle, coq au vain, whatever at the end. The fat helps, you just have to cook it.

And if you’re doing sheet pan chicken with broccoli and red…

Just think, a mere 7 to 8 years from now some idiot will buy one of these after the 2nd owner’s CPO warranty runs out and we’ll be feeling sorry for them for how much time they’ll be in the shop as all the cost engineering falls apart around them.

We don’t have the recycling infrastructure to handle it. Other countries used to take it, but now they won’t because it’s badly sorted. I don’t know if the sorting reason is the real issue, but either way we can’t recycle it. It’s going to be a big problem at some point. Domestic industry can’t ramp up in time to meet…

The matte paint job makes this top 5 ugliest modern cars I’ve seen. I don’t understand why it looks so bad. Surely non-metallic but with gloss like Audi or Porsche would’ve looked better?

Can you do me a favor, answer what is “socialist” to you? It feels like you’re ready to either argue against something or dismiss ideas in part because of that. I don’t really have a horse in this exact race, I think we have a major technologically-induced economic crisis coming in less than a generation regardless of…

People who drift on the street are fucking idiots.

Personally? 0. Family, 1 and done. Friends, a ton but they’re junk and everyone’s sworn them off. My friend’s STi went through 2 motors - stock daily driver not driven hard. Other friend’s Outback had the 2.5 excessive oil consumption problem and had to get new rings. The others that have had subarus have had fit and…

They make mechanically bad cars with simple interiors and electronics. They dont have a lot of nagging issues like used Mercedes, but you’re constantly pushing your luck with their shit drivetrains. I don’t get it either, and they’ve somehow managed to get worse over the past 10 years with their fragile CVT and all…

Something in the water or air or altitude makes bread terrible in california.  They can’t make sandwiches or pizza there.  Admittedly, I was only there for about a week but everything I ate with bread was mediocre.

I have an Ap1 s2000. The only car I’d ever replace it with is a supercharged first generation NSX.

Until people figure out how much that CVT costs to replace and read stories of all the < 100k mile Subaru cars with CVT problems. They offered an extended warranty on the part but subaru people keep their cars forever and these CVTs are weaksauce.

It’s always sobering to see the effects of huffing solvents first hand.  Maybe some day they’ll find a way to restore you to the 2 brain cells you had before you killed them both off with your shitty habit. 

My experience trying to figure out shopping for my girlfriend who is a lot less into recognizable brand names - Vintage coach is great for basics. In fact, a lot of vintage purses in general. It’s a bit more annoying to shop for them and then get them cleaned/restored, but you can find stuff that’s interesting or…

I can buy a half canvas suit in in very fine wool or cashmere fully tailored for $800. Cost of a yard of italian or british wool is generally going to be > silk and the work that goes into tailoring a suit is way more than any silk dress shown up there. You’re paying for the name. Similarly, I can get a full canvas…

Outside of extremely high end products and scientific things, American manufacturers make steaming hot trash in most markets. We act like products sourced from China are the only junk out there. Do you remember American made blenders from the 70's? Holy shit were they bad, way worse than walmart Chineseum blenders now.

…

A family member had constant issues with steady power that eventually killed 2 different appliance boards. They had electricians out to get a whole house surge protector installed and were told by both that they’ll do basically nothing, and that surge protectors in general will do basically nothing. Surges above…

As Philadelphia goes, so goes America. There’s a lifeless veneer of gentrification along the waterfront and up towards the Northeast. It’s cheap + miserable and will decay in 10 years making future Philly into an outdated, corroded husk like Atlantic City became in the 2000's. There’s the ongoing corruption of South…

Turned on my adblocker here because of this recent stream of tired-ass shitposting by new jalop writers.

This is such an obvious terrible take. I guess author’s just trolling or something to stir up engagement, but it’s obnoxious. Don’t go touching people’s stuff if they don’t want it touched. Does the author walk up…
