To correct this error, Porsche will need to keep your car for a week. They will need to pull the motor and dash out, then special-order tiny plastic parts from Germany that costs $300. When owners pick their cars up, they will notice a rattle from the dash and a new leak in the driver’s floor.

I do that all the time with lien and line at my job.  And fun fact one program we use has the WORST and I mean WORST spell check on the face of the Earth.  Like you can have a word typed correctly, use spell check and it will be like did you mean this, and then give you prompts for things that are NOT even freaking…

“break” is one of the misspellings I see the most, to the point where I had to ask my Canadian friends, “Yo, is that the accepted spelling up there? Because ALL of you do it.” I felt like I was being gaslit about language by an entire country (and it’s not the first time).

Well now I’m just getting curious about how the various Porsches would actually perform in this test. Someone send me *all the Porsches* and I’ll do all the testing on my end. Because I’m just a stand-up guy like that.

Me: “Hello, Porsche marketing department? You need to see this comment from Give Me Tacos or Give Me Death on Jalopnik.”

Porsche needs to do an equivalent stunt where they race a Cybertruck against one of their cars, only... there’s snow on the ground.

Exactly, so why’d they feel like they needed to lie about it when they already have a great claim they can create a strategy and content around? That’s the part I find bizarre. Just make something great that’s not easily disprovable.

What’s dumb is that it needlessly takes away from something that is still ridiculously impressive. I’m not an Elon stan, the guy’s an idiot. And other than forcing it to happen, likely had nothing to do with the engineering of this thing. But it’s still an electric truck towing a Porsche and beating another Porsche (su…

This is legitimately one of the absolute lamest attempts at a joke that I have ever seen.

George of the Youngle?

Maybe the move would be to do a Raj show but with the Lou Grant twist. Lou Grant went from being a supporting character on a sitcom to a lead character on a drama. Let’s see Raj as an astrophysicist called upon to investigate UFOs and call it ... I dunno ... The Raj Files.

Nolan sold it as a standard procedural and the hook was The Machine. Like Elementary or N3mbers or any number of other shows, they thought the hook would be mostly just a meaningless gimmick that didn’t affect the plot in any significant way (hell, they now have the US Navy investigating crimes in Australia somehow) an…

CBS, the most risk-averse network ever. How Person of Interest ever got approved, I'll never know. 

I want to see Finn hunting down the First Order war criminals who were kidnapping children to brainwash into being Stormtroopers, dammit! Why is this so hard?

This is for all you old farts: I read in an article in Vanity Fair that Jennifer Jason Leigh said that one of her main inspirations in creating Lorraine was William F. Buckley. Now that I’ve read that, I can’t unsee it! She sits sprawling on a chair like him, and has that same upper-class drawl as him. I never saw it…

At this point I’m really in the mood for a drama that explores some interesting corner of Star Trek or an outright comedy that celebrates those bits of Trek that are both preposterous and iconic. Like a movie where the Federation steps in to prevent an interstellar war between a gangster planet and a cowboy world.

🤔 Hm, I suppose you’re right; if Trek on TV (its native habitat) has been lacking for a while, then a movie could possibly be a catalyst for reinvigorating interest in it.

I’d say there’s no big need for Trek movies as long as we have Trek shows. Trek movies have twice given the franchise a boost when there were no Trek shows.

Potentially unpopular opinion: There should not be Star Trek movies. As much fondness as I have for a few of the ST films (2, 4, 6...), the essence of Trek is about things that cinema isn’t really the right medium for.

I thought Munch was going for a Werner Herzog thing.
