I saw a video recently, maybe from Germany? where the police were pulling people aside that were rubbernecking (and taking photos) of a fatal accident. The cop was like, “You want to come see him? He’s right over there. Come on, let’s go. You want some pictures?” Of course suddenly they didn’t want to look and were

Why not? He was.  Or I guess he was more Man-splaining than anything.

I took a pretty short flight (75 minutes) and got stuck in the seat right next to the bathroom. I counted 11 people that went in there and absolutely blew it up within a 30 minute window. I could not believe it. And only 1 out of 11 actually closed the door behind them as they left. I had to keep reaching over and

I always shake my head at the people that leap up the second the plane comes to a stop and stand in the aisle, or better yet, window seat people that stand crouched over under the overhead storage.  You’ve got a least 5 minutes before they even get the plane door open, then you have to wait for all the rows in front

And Mix is a car guy.

What about the shirts, etc. they sell on Blipshift? A lot of the time the images are exact recreations of specific vehicles. I think they are fan art that’s submitted, but I could see manufacturers getting pissy about selling products with their design without them getting a cut.

My car has quad air conditioning. I can roll down all four windows!

I was pissed that my $34,000 Tacoma came with a standard key/ignition set up. Keyless entry and push button start forever. Did people pine for engine cranks back in the day when ignition start became available?

Seriously, why can’t I get remote start on a manual? I always park in neutral with the parking brake set. Why can’t I get a jump start on warming or cooling the car as I walk towards it?

I think with cars like the Corvette or 911, owners only care about performance numbers, not fun-to-drive factor. If they can tell people at the country club their car accelerates two tenths of a second faster to 60 with an auto/DSG over a manual, they will choose that every time.

You failed to mention the 1981 Toyota Starlet in Virginia is for sale for $1,111,111. Not the “for a song” price point you were touting.

Whenever my wife and I see an overtly aggressive BMW driver we debate whether the car makes people drive that way or are people that are normally that way naturally attracted to BMW’s?

The pun thread is at the top. Please post in the proper category.

I’m oh for two on that front, but mine at least likes cars/motorsports and doesn’t want kids, so I deal with it.

Wait. You like money too? We should hang out.

I can’t complain about my wife’s messiness. She showed me who she was from the start. The first time I was in her apartment and there was clutter EVERYWHERE. And she had multiple days to tidy up/hide things in closets/cupboards, but didn’t. She literally just doesn’t see it.

I just assume it’s a daddy complex.

I have a woman coworker who bought a V8 six-speed Camaro because in her own words it’s a “cock magnet.”

Isn’t funny when you’re only known for one thing? I haven’t watched NASCAR consistently for at least six years and even when I did, I hardly ever talked about it at work. Yet, I’m known as the NASCAR guy at work and nothing else.

I’m 38 and had a salesman ask if I was “going to school.” Granted, it could have been a lame attempt at flattery, he being a salesman and all.
