This was 100% the boat captain’s fault. I grew up in Vancouver and in the harbour. I have navigated power boats and sailboats through the harbour many many times.

I think Jerry is still broken up over how Michael Richards has been basically ostracized from society, but what he did would have gotten him “cancelled” during Seinfeld’s run, so it makes no sense.

I’d take Selena in a second over a sequel to Trump.

Eagle is the correct comp

I’m close to being with you, but I’ve always thought of the Outback as a modern AMC Eagle wagon.

Ah, Jerry Seinfeld: the man who was barely relevant on the TV show that bore his name.

Came here to say the same. The Miata was inspired by the Elan, not so much the MG.

Hurts me to say this, but NA Miata. I don’t want to call it a Lotus Elan ripoff, but for all intents and purposes, it was. It was the late 80's best interpretation of Elan. They even tested like 96 exhaust systems to come up with the sound best reminds of Lotus twin cam.

The late Seventies Toyota Celica fastback ripoff of the Mustang:

Riding bicycles is not “incredibly fucking dangerous”. It can be if you encounter car or truck drivers who are incredible fucking assholes though.

Riding bicycles is incredibly fucking dangerous

Seriously. This was merely a drive-by scrape from one of those F-Some-Fifty behemoths. Hopefully totalled, because it’ll never be right again.

Absent from this safety assessment, how unsafe these massive vehicles with their square, 5-foot high hoods, are for nearly every single other vehicle on the road. Get T-boned or hit head-on by one of these monstrosities, and it’s game over for you.

They are using them to spy on Brown people, who just happen to be poor. See, that makes it all better. /s

Why are the only two options in your head a drone or full SWAT team? Sending a nearby patrol seems completely reasonable, and can take real action if there is a bad situation that could turn deadly very quickly.

“Early in the Covid-19 pandemic, the city even used drones to broadcast public service announcements to homeless encampments.”

“The drones, often dispatched for serious incidents like reports of armed individuals, are also routinely deployed for minor issues such as shoplifting, vandalism, and loud music.”

See, that’s a correct comment, and yet completely different from your first one.

wrong but keep posting misinformed bullshit
