I miss that guy’s videos. I wonder what happened to him in the end?

I can’t even be mad at non-tender-headed people. Like, if your life is that blessed, then you go on staying blessed.

You got a lot of baggage you’re projecting, bud.

I’m currently reading “Homegoing” by Yaa Gyasi and it is beautiful and lyrical—it writes about suffering without fetishizing it. If she prefers non-fiction, I’d recommend literally anything by Bee Wilson, a food writer for the Guardian.

Genuinely curious what you dislike about it. I figured most Jalopnik posters dabble in RCR, that’s clearly wrong.

“The car for people who want to be James Bond, but are really just James May.”

I’ll admit, I live in a small town with a porch that is mostly unseen to the road, so package theft has not been an issue for me.

ODOT and PDOT are a huge part of the problem. That stupid tweet is most of what they do, tell people to stay off of the roads. Which isn’t an option for people like you trying to get back home.

FYI - road salt is not used in Oregon because of stream water quality. The only exception is the top of Siskiyou Pass, which drains into California, which salts anyways.

this afternoon, i drove like all the hounds of hell were after me to get back to hood river before 205 became an inevitable parking lot. made it. just.

People suck, and tend to think AWD means Invincible.

Much sympathy Liquid, My kids were on their schoolbus from SE from 2:15 till 6, my wife commutes from Tigard to St. Johns.

Is that a first gen Prius or some kind of early 2000s Mercedes? I’m trying to figure what the hell has that so-2003-screen-it-hurts.

That 211 probably never looked so good to you right now.

At least you have a box of tissues for your tears.

Did you guys get it worse than we did here in central Oregon, or do people there just suck more at driving?

It’s simple. Especially for an enthusiast buying enthusiast cars a buy can become an asset, but a lease is always a liability. On a balance sheet assets > liabilities. Done.

In the spirit of equality... WHEN WILL THE CULTURE APPROPRIATION END!1
