9 times out of 10 the thing I want/need from Amazon can be found on eBay for the same price. It’s a really great Amazon substitute.

It’s been tough, but we’ve been working on trying to avoid buying stuff from Amazon whenever possible. Vitacost, Costco, Newegg, and Target are our go-tos. Sometimes we need some obscure thing and Amazon’s the only real option, but we feel a lot better about spreading our money around rather than just defaulting to…

hey bryan-

... and then blatantly ripping off Pontiac instead.

Nostalgia for a not-particularly-great era of the past is completely on brand.

Maybe it’s because I’m an old but...I forgot what I was going to say...oh yeah, Milli Vanilli did the same thing but better. At least they could dance.

Somebody has been re-reading their Pratchett/Discworld on the matter of The Luggage.

All the best designs are from the 1980s. We should reïntroduce these graphs. Here’s a mockup of a depreciation graph for a Chevrolet:

Just by chance, that’s the name of my jazz fusion bagpipe band.

Citation needed. 

We need to get there now, before the Martians steal all of their water away from The Belters.

Well, Pontiac wasn’t using it any more and the Toyota logo was trademarked...not that something that trivial would stop this administration.

So, two things about the first letter. First:

Ooooh! Now I want a Libidinous Anarchist Rabid Garage Elephant. And a garage as big as yours!

So we talkin duck bills or platypus bills here?

I’m sure Jezebel would be flattered to learn they are capable of “tanking” any candidate.

I have a feeling if this happened in this capacity under a different president, the shit-talking and disdain would be much lower.

My aunt was a programmer back in the 80s and wound up re-entering the workforce in the late 90s doing Y2K compliance.
