As a driver in Vancouver this is a real problem for me, being a person that doesn’t want my door fucked up any more than I want to serious hurt a person. Reading this article gave me a legitimate “hmm” as I realized how simple and effective this will be. Going to try to ingrain this into my driving / parking habits!

I kind of expected someone to put that fourth. Im not sure if you’re being serious in calling that team mascot “triggering” but I can see how some would. I feel like it’s not quite the same thing (the Irish were not pushed to near extinction as their land was stolen from them and written off as “manifest destiny”) but…

Yeah, in Canada we use “first nations”, or more colloquially, “natives”.

Truly embarrassing, as a Canadian. You like to think that we are above that kind of garbage.

What’s the point in calling this a world record? Only your dumb ass country would try this.

A bunch of people in my university dorm played the diaper piss game one night. They got hammered drunk and the more they pissed themselves the more they just doused themselves in baby powder to keep everything contained.

Yeah. That seems like just about the right amount of effort for this.

I’m with Burneko on both counts.

East York is absolutely one of the six municipalities that were a part of the 1998 amalgamation of Toronto, and Mississauga is still it’s own city with its own mayor, you twat. These aren’t matters of opinion. These are facts.

Fuckin google it. Or don't. Who cares!

“the 6" is a nickname referring to the 6 cities that make up Toronto proper (Toronto, Scarborough, North York, York, East York, and Etobicoke). Drake didn’t make it up. Learn yourself.

this is almost as hurtful as the time Wayne Gretzky visited the Team USA locker room in Mighty Ducks 2.

The biggest difference as far as I can tell between a Tesla and any ICE car is that Teslas don’t require as much maintenance, which is traditionally a huge cash cow for dealers. So, that being said, yes, a dealer that also deals in ICE cars has less incentive to sell you an electric car because they know damn well…

What if you aren’t the original owner? Is it possible to buy these cars on the used market and turn a profit on the buyback? (Assuming you can find examples with a low enough asking price and a high buyback)

You can be as dismissive as you want because “lol Canada!” but man would people be pissed if a Canadian did this during the American anthem.

Fan votes are stupid. Allstar games are stupid. This is hilarious.

I wonder if there’s some fine print in your buyers agreement that Aston can take the car back and refund your money.

well, yeah, and I agree with your point on the timeline. Elon is a master of drumming up hype, he’s literally never made good on one of these “2 years away” promises. He was years late on the Falcon 9 rocket, he’s years late on manned missions, he was years late on the model S and the model X and he’s already years…

You sound like the kind of person who would have said “why would I want a car, I have this horse that does the job perfectly fine.” Autonomous cars are coming. I don’t ever buy into Elon’s timelines, but it’s pretty undeniable at this point that within our lifetimes, the entire paradigm of how a consumer car is owned…

No doubt that autonomous cars are coming, but I don’t see why anyone would take Elon at his word when he makes these “we’re two years away” predictions. He doesn’t exactly have a great track record.
