And that’s how Ferrari named its next car 

Everybody experiments with a hatchback in college 

Volvo just wants to finish school and then take some time to figure itself out. Maybe backpack in south america. Or get a europass and just see where the train takes it--life’s like, short, man. Volvo’s got to make time for Volvo.

In Winston-Salem, NC? It’s....look, he’s gonna get sacked at Sonoco, but it’s not going to ruin him. I’ll never live in either Carolina by choice again, and I’m a frickin’ white guy. 

I’ve literally already watched jobs vanish over this. Company I do business with was going to bring a product line (with an irreplaceable Chinese-made electrical component) to a US plant; once tariff talk started getting thrown around they decided to stage the assembly overseas instead (europe, I think).

“no, but [*I* won’t get fucked, sooo]”

I’ve been throwing this at everybody who makes those goddamn arguments in my earshot lately

The Los Angeles Angels?

Unhinged? I’m mildly exasperated at your weak-ass argument based purely on projecting your personal experience onto everyone else—although I’m a bit tickled, as I was betting you’d whip out the “you’re clearly unsuitable!” nugget on anyone who challenged it. Clearly you’ve got all the answers, though. Enjoy coasting…

Fancy Kristen doesn’t sweat, and she does not permit you to do so in her presence.

Good for you. Not that I owe you a resume, but: I’ve had a crazy person try to strangle me (Virginia), have come home to find crack-heads trying to jimmy my bedroom window, and been standing at a crosswalk when a guy at the intersection decided to vent his road rage by shooting at the car in front of him (both in Seatt…

That was my guess too. Never seen a manager of minimum-wage sandwich technicians who wouldn’t fire one for taking a piss too often, let alone dragging them into a PR shitshow. Although I guess it could be code for “corporate is taking over because you idiots made us look bad, don’t do shit until we decide how much…

for the record that was supposed to be “confoundingly” and I got autocorrected. 

Well, we’ve problematically failed as a species to reduce car goodrificness to a single, standardized, quantifiable variable, so we might have to accept the possibility that there may be “great” cars that are also, confidingly, not “for” you.

Spooky throws boom at others. YMC-130H throws boom at itself.

Why? How have you been parking yours?

Not sure I get the reference (Toyota?), but yeah—the only reason that a car company (or anyone else) does business is because they make a buck.

Yes, those companies sell cars there, cars that are made there in the 50% joint ownership factories.
