Why not just spring for a heated garage instead?

Here in Canada, tons of people used interior warmers when I was growing up. There was the odd fire from improperly installed units, or people who let garbage pile up next to the heater, but they were quite safe overall. I don’t hear much about people using these nowadays, probably due to remote start being so much

Well, holy shit. I haven’t thought about the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers in one hell of a long time.

The vanity plate on that truck was perfect - RUSIRIS. (I’m assuming he was going for “are you serious?” - which would be awesome. If it was something boring like buddy’s name was Russ and his wife is Iris, it’s not funny at all, so I’m going with my interpretation.)

Mine was a recall that I feel like I would have been better off ignoring. The “fix” was more dangerous than the original situation.

here i am, giving Jalopnik another try. FIRST article i read, it says “this convoy of dipshits” reffering to a group of people protesting against this gender indentity nonsense

Yep. Not all cops are geniuses, but I doubt there’s many dumb enough to think ramming a tractor with an SUV is going to accomplish much.

Been a while since I have seen a $kay comment.

there’s no denying that children were stigmatized for being born into that situation. Still are, in many cases.

especially not your usage of it... you’re not helping.

So get a rear rack & a pair of folding baskets like these

you’re a holier than thou doushenozzle who no matter what the situation is going to pretend to be on some moral high ground to put down those around you. Even if you were surrounded by environmentalists you’d be seeking some weakness in other to put them down and make them feel inferior as you virtue signal.

Well, some would say it’s not weird at all. This isn’t just any random stage name. “Lana Del Rey” itself is an appropriation of Cuban culture - she said it reminded her of “the glamor of the seaside,” the beach and Miami. Her early album (Lizzy Grant) under her real name (Elizabeth Woolridge Grant) flopped hard. She’s

I have no way to know whether she’s fun or not, but she’s absolutely right. These ads are glamourising [sic not sic] the exact behaviours [sic not sic] and attitudes that are destroying our climate and environment and will be killing us at an accelerating rate. So I guess I don’t give a fuck about her personality.

Yeah, I was wondering whether those were from the sources cited, or added by the author of this piece. I can’t imagine anyone is going to be terribly confused by British spellings.

For me, and I suspect for many people of a certain age, it’s Cadillac. Growing up, every Caddy was a ridiculously-oversized dinosaur that sickened us kids who liked cars. Every Caddy driver also seemed to be oversized, acted like a total douche, and was always dressed in ridiculously-patterned and -coloured clothing.

Yep, full marks for whoever wrote that. Just excellent.

Anyone remember Stanford student Brock Turner? The guy who raped the unconscious woman? The guy whose dad then wrote a letter asking for a lenient sentence because Brock will never be his happy go lucky self with that easy going personality and welcoming smile again. This is a steep price to pay for 20 minutes of
