The original commercials for the Land Rider were hilariously awful. In true infomercial style, they would show people completely flummoxed by changing gears, as if they were trying to solve a Calculus 3 problem. The over-the-top mannerisms, the exasperated expressions, the ridiculous testimonials about how hard…

Right? Jalopnik has become just as insufferable and unapologetically progressive (in the worst way possible) as the rest of the former Gawker properties have been for a while. Shame, this was once such a top notch, car enthusiast-oriented blog.

No way in hell I’m letting someone put a device on my car that restricts its speed/acceleration. I don’t condone reckless speeding in traffic, but I do enjoy taking my car and motorcycle out on a empty country road and having some fun. This is still a car enthusiast blog, right? Seams like the last few years it’s been …

Apparently lost control? It wouldn’t stop per the article. “and evidence from surveillance videos indicate that Mr. Villani was alert, not impaired, and was pressing on the brakes.”

It’s 2023. Don’t you have a stinkin’ DVR by now??

“Is it strange to anyone else that the Texans carted out a minor internet celebrity to sing a song about how this country persevered through a war waged against the country that most of the teams on the F1 grid hail from? Welcome to our country, thanks for visiting and bringing billions of dollars in economic…

Agreed, and that’s where checking all your mirrors before lane-changing is really important. If this person had seen on their left-side rearview mirror (assuming they knew how to adjust it correctly) that a massive tow truck was about to occupy the same space as them, perhaps braking instead of turning the steering…

Woof. The differential speed of the white SUV and the truck wasn’t remarkable until the former realized he was about to rear-end someone. That was a combo brake-check lane change, which is very not good thing to do.

What the fuck is that dashboard supposed to be? An 80s bathroom vanity?

earth be damned. mcdonalds needs to go back to beef tallow

I heard this exact rhetoric when I worked in a union. But it was them telling us we need to vote for Obama.

Sounds like Popeye’s hired a Lean Six Sigma consultant that kaizened the shit out of them.

Anchovies and their bigger cousins, sardines, are great. Throw in pickled herring and it’s a party.

I’m convinced this culture war is just Chinese psychological warfare.  Gaslighting and straw mans abound to rip the citizenry apart.  

I’ve never had any of these items, but I just want all day breakfast back. Nothing was better than having a sausage egg McMuffin at lunch. 

Sausage mcmuffin and a hash brown from McDonald’s is the cure. Throw the hash brown on the mcmuffin.

How to choose eggs:

After years of doing new car handover tutorials for customers, I’ve noticed there’s not just a general cluelessness, but some people treat it like a genuine phobia when something has a function more common than a simple button or switch. Anything that could be called technology they’ll act all scared and refuse to…

Would prefer to have been rickrolled

agreed. they need to do 3 simple things.
