Even beyond the credit card spiraling, the kids ought to be taught about where their paychecks go. What is gross and net, and why is there withholding and deductions? What are all these employer retirement plans and why should anybody participate in one? What’s Social Security? What is an ARM versus a fixed-rate loan?…

100% agree with this. You know the first thing I did when I moved out of my parents house at 20? Ran up 7 grand in debt on a high-interest credit card that took 7 years to pay down.
People need to be taught personal finance in primary school. More than just a semester.
Business uses famous brand to make money, more news at eleven. People clearly buy these things, I don’t see any incentive as to why BMW wouldn’t M-ify more models. Besides, doesn’t this site champion absurd and powerful cars?
COUNTERPOINT: If these are the cars people are buying—and they are—they may as well have fun and fast options available. It’s better than being boring!
The Del Sol had one of these, too. Slightly down on hp to the Mac, though.
So you’re saying it is basically the 4Runner supercar Toyota should build?
Responding with a thumbs up style friendly response is the best way to make someone go nuclear. I happened to find myself in the left lane at a red light and when it turned green didn’t accelerate quite as quickly as the cars in front of me and definitely not as fast as the gentleman in the pickup behind me needed. We…
A few years back, I had something similar happen.
If you’re familiar with Atlanta, you’ll know the 75/85 split going north. Three lanes each.
Oh man were you around two weeks ago when Perkins was shocked that a black woman in the 1960s would tell dirty jokes?
Halsey has had a few hits but yes, I wonder why of all people she got a shot. She’s not exactly known for her personality. Actually she’s not exactly known. Most people wouldn’t be able to pick her our from a lineup
The Nancy Pelosi impression still makes me cringe a bit...the way that SNL uses their female cast generally makes me cringe these days. It feels so patronizing and hollow and means they don’t get genuine opportunities to show their talent. As sexist as the old show was, you had women like Gilda Radner who got to do…
Kenan deserves some kind of medal for putting up with this muck.
I can understand going their own direction after hard points are set but seems like a waste of money to change the wheelbase on what’s essentially the same platform in the same market segment. I guess we’ll see who is right based on sales.
Either than woman is quite tall or that car is a lot smaller than I expected. Her shoulders are above the roofline of what is ostensibly a crossover/SUV.
By the way, Justin, this is, seriously, the comment that got me pulled out of the greys:
Who brought you back out of the greys?
Is that Moss Landing Generating Station in the distance?
Go fuck yourself.
