I think they get some models that are manufactured in the US and Mexico, but some are imported from Europe.

I don’t like supercars. Lamborghini’s, Ferrari’s, Bugatti’s - don’t like them. Everything about them is too much.

This I don’t get. It must be somewhat exaggerated, but I do get the impression that German reliability is more of a real thing over here in Europe.

Sounds good but doesn’t that make the afternoon too long?

And don’t fill gaps you need to find your words. Just leave a pause. Don’t go err, um, or other sounds.

Oh yes, I hate the argle-bargles not being repeated!

Good points. But most of your points only apply when there is an actual audio engineer. At most conferences etc. I’ve been to, that was not the case.

The only source of information I ever read online about car salespeople is about the US. I’m from Europe, myself, and I have yet to hear one such horror story about buying a new car. I get the impression it’s a lot less painless over here and sometimes even pleasant. Is that my fellow Europeans’ impression, too?

Belgian, actually, but I do try to follow British spelling rules...

She did write this gem, though:

Indeed, I was most surprised to read this article. I don’t think I’ve ever hear anyone say engine breaking is bad. I think it was even taught during my driving lessons. (Might it have something to do with me being from Europe and manual cars still being the majority over here?)

Thanks. Yes, that would be a big difference. Where I’m from, there’s always a chuch at walking distance, although an increasing number of churches are no longer being used because the number of people that actually go to church is pretty limited and getting smaller every year. Also, churches around here generally…

Serious question: why do churches need vans? I’m from Europe - I don’t think I’ve ever seen a church van over here.

I get the danger and the need to secure dressers, but I don’t get the product recalls. Those dressers aren’t exactly faulty, are they? They’re just not being used for their intended purpose. All the manufacturer needs to do, is inform people of the possible risks.

Good job assigning higher or lower values to certain chores! And this is exactly where most who-should-you-vote-for-websites go wrong. They typically give you a number of questions but they don’t let you prioritise between them. Maybe that’s something you should address, too, come next elections...

I sometimes wonder if mansplaining isn’t a bit like racism in some people. Some people may not be mansplainers of racists, they’re just jerks and they don’t care who they aim their jerkness at.

The Hercule Poirot in me wanted to correct you and say that she was actually Belgian, not French. Turns out not to be the case - she was born in Brussels but she did have the French nationality. So nothing to see here, carry on!

Nowhere does it say this is the No. 1 concern.

This car is truely attrocious. The grills, the L-shapes around the doors and the hatch...

How about using immature language? Why write “shit” as if it were a perfectly acceptable synonym for “things”?
