There’s a huge price differential between the Honda CR-V and the VeeDub Toooooooareg ... the VW is nearly twice the price of the Honda.

Some day perhaps the collective hive mind of the interwebs will stop conflating “raptor” with “dinosaur”. Believe it or not, the Ford Raptor is NOT NAMED AFTER THE FICTIONAL DINOSAUR.

I haven’t read Brave New World ... read Animal Farm, Watership Down, and 1984 all within the last year. Those 3 are horrible books. They are written using grade school grammar, syntax, and vocabulary, and beyond the lack of literary skill exhibited by the author(s), the stories were really just plain stupid.

Now now ... if you just listen and don’t watch the crappy vid, that’s a half decent latin pop dance tune. But based on your reference to death metal, I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume you are not a top fan of dance pop.

If I didn’t already have a daily driver or had nothing better to do with that amount of money, I’d buy it.

Regarding sizing: IF you have a bike shop within easy travel distance, go there to get sized for a bike, it’ll be much easier and much more accurate than trying to measure yourself at home. Also more likely to get good results if you buy / order the bike at a bike shop in person rather than online from home.

I don’t know how serious several of the other respondents were, and I’m not even gonna be like the guy who pulls a “let me google that for you” ... in a ‘fecal transplant’ the donor stuff goes up the butt. Nobody is ‘eating poop’.

It’s always okay to wear an automotive related t-shirt. It is never okay to wear a car-branded polo, jacket, tie, button-up shirt, pants, underpants, socks, and last but not least, shoes. Only pretentious poseurs wear any of that non-t-shirt crap, but “driving shoes” are the most douchey of all.

Many if not most Ford cars of the mid-to-late 70's had the irredeemably evil ‘horn on a stalk’ boondoggle. My public-school-provided free driver training had a handful of mid-70's Plymouth Valiants and a couple newer (I think ‘78) Ford Fairmonts and I had never driven a Ford before. Every other car I had ever been in…

The Microsoft Sculpt is by far the most comfortable keyboard I’ve ever used, and I’ve been typing / keyboarding for almost 40 years. I’ve used all kinds of ergonomic and standard keyboards, and the Sculpt is miles away superior in feel and comfort to any standard (let alone those horribly shitty hard-clicky gaming…

I understand wanting to make it clear to those who don’t know what “Sharia” is, but I suggest to you that you don’t do that by using grammatically incorrect redundancies.

Sharia law

Wind knocks over it’s fair share of cans in this neighborhood, but the truck drivers’ sloppy maneuvering probably accounts for a third of all knocked over cans (they start to pull forward before the grabarms fully retract, or they set the can down on a curb, shyte like that). Probably a safe bet to say that if your…

Every manufacturer offers a 360 camera option to alleviate this issue

Nice touch on the mods, looks like the bodywork was done with real attention to detail ... those new air vents look nicely finessed.

No, you are completely wrong on this. The crossover is the best thing. It has most of the carrying capacity of an SUV but without the mileage and handling penalties, and the handling and mileage of a family sedan without the cramped confines and storage penalties. Crossover is a perfect compromise, and look better…

a burner phone <snip> Take the photos then destroy it. I mean, I guess they could pinpoint who was around at the time the photo was taken, but if the cameraphone

I’ve never heard the myth that darker skinned people don’t get skin cancer, but I have heard the myth that “tan == skin damage” (see comment from HappyBerry) ... again, I understand that pale northerners (I’m of Mediterranean descent) have a harder time with UV damage than darker people, but the myth I am most…
