Duh.

I want to know what your worst winter driving story is. Maybe you got stuck in a snowbank after some goober cut you off in a snowstorm. Perhaps your battery died in freezing cold temperatures.

Holy shit, seriously? Large eggs where I live are $4.55 a dozen - and that’s Canadian dollars. I thought that President guy was gonna get on that; is he not the sort of person to keep his promises?

Saw some MAGA fucker on a news show bitching about how he “can’t make ends meet” and he’s gonna starve or lose his house or whatever because of Biden/Kamala/socialists/whatever. The reporter talked to him while he was in the local Trump store spending hundreds of dollars on ugly Trump merch. You can’t make these…

I have to admit, when my wife told me that a helicopter crashed into a plane in DC, my first question was “Any chance it was Marine 1?”

I bought an Audi largely because it wasn’t built by Americans. No offence, eh.

No good? It’s perfectly legal to drive a LHD in the UK, isn’t it? So you buy this, and with all the money you saved due to all that depreciation, you have it shipped right to your door. I’m sure that wouldn’t cost very much at all; very economical. Also, think of how much fun it will be to learn how to pilot it in…

2005 Acura TSX 6-speed manual, bought new, still being driven daily by my wife. That car is the best I’ve ever owned. New enough to have good comfort and safety features, but old enough to not be up in my business all the time. And no goddamn touchscreen. Like, it was a great car to start with (I mean, of course it…

Years ago, I was at a police training academy watching two cadets do their practical test (a scenario where they are responding to a suspicious vehicle call). I’m in a car with an instructor who’s grading them. As the two approach the subject vehicle, the instructor says to me “did you see him touch the edge of the…

other than a general lack of ground clearance, they will get anywhere

In a press release, the UK government says the rollout of digital driver’s licenses...will help streamline processes and give people easier access to their identification.

I just visited the web site, and it’s on sale right now for the ridiculously low price of $13,200! Now you have absolutely no reason not to buy it.

Right? All I could think while reading this was “how utterly fucking stupid have people become?” How addled are some people’s brains that we have to tell them “if you wouldn’t put a food in your freezer, don’t leave it in any other below-freezing-point environment - because it will, you know, freeze”? In what kind of…

In general, it’s good that those poky, easily bent or broken things are no longer sticking out of our cars, but I have fond memories of one of mine. I locked my keys in my car at the airport years ago, in the middle of a giant parking lot with no tools or coat hangers in sight. Harnessing my inner MacGyver, I noticed…

Prince Edward Island, a small Canadian island northeast of Maine

I have made some really, really bad videos and Powerpoint presentations to show my students what not to do, and to illustrate how gratuitous effects and attempts at “humour” can nullify the usefulness of any actual content. That TSA video checks every “don’t” box, and then takes it to another level altogether. I have…

Enough with the anticar koolaid please Amber.

Gotta love it when these idiots fight, but there’s no one to root for. Reminded me of something I saw in the NYT this morning. I read that someone said of Musk: “He’s a truly evil person.” OK, sure. Then I saw that the quote came from Steve Bannon. My brain is now vapour locked.

Holy fuck, you waited a year to post this failed attempt to sound superior? Of course that’s the reason, genius.

Exactly! That’s the kind of gambling that could actually make the flight more fun. Prop bets on all kinds of shit like whether the flight attendant will smack you with the bar cart, how many idiots will smoke/vape in the lav, how many feet of duct tape will be needed to tie down the guy who goes batshit halfway to…
