What makes this even worse is that these are the kids of people who are “winners” in society while the rest of us work for peanuts. 

Still holding out hope that one day there will be an article about stupid, dangerous shit totally free of comments excusing and bragging about doing stupid, dangerous shit.

This story has no good guy.

From the citation of Thim:

Man, remember those lovely lovely days when all we really had to worry about were the latest wretched moves by the Tea Partiers and what the birthers would say about Obama next?

Despite the MARTA acronym (Metro Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority), Atlanta currently does NOT have an extensive rapid transit system. Plans for expansion are being made, but Atlanta is still largely a “driving” city.

The early one is classy but the later one makes me think “mullet”

I have the mechanically identical 2020 Soul EV. Cheap plastic, yes, but excellent range, and tons of equipment. As you say, a very unquirky driving experience.

That’s Lorem Ipsum.
