I honestly can’t answer this question. While my dad had a few “cool” cars well before he was a husband with three kids (e.g., MG MkII convertible, early 70's Camaro, Datsun 240Z), he is by no means a “car nut.” Neither of my brothers are interested in cars (I honestly don’t think either of them can drive a manual). No…

I was going to say something along the lines of:

My suggestion would be to go the complete opposite route: something utterly cheap and “econo” oriented, like a VW Polo (3 cylinder), a SmartTwo or something else ridiculous like that (Chevy Aveo). I think having to watch Doug live with (and fit his 6’ + frame into) something like this for a few months would be great.

Usually I look at these types of lists and just kind of laugh because the stuff is so absurdly ugly/ridiculous/impractical. But what they did to the Porsche legitimately angers me. I think classic cars should be like historical homes; you only get to make modifications if they are first approved by a board of…

There has always been something about the Isuzu VehiCross that I love.

I think it’s funny that the (former) Target customers believe that the change is because of some nebulous, yet nefarious, liberal/socialist plot or “PC culture”. Target is a multi-billion dollar retailer. My assumption is that this is purely a business decision. Target thinks they can secure more customers and make…

“In the original ‘60s comics, Reed and Doom went to college together, Doom was making some kind of machine that would let him talk to his dead mom, Reed looked over at it and saw it was messed up and told Doom. Doom, being an arrogant ass told Richards he was an arrogant ass, turned on his machine, and blew up part of…

The “Center for Medical Progress,” not the “Center for Media Progress.”

Welcome to the EPA’s next SuperFund clean-up site. There’s 80 years of lead paint, lead batteries, various heavy metals, gas, oil, paint varnish, and what not in them thar hills.

You know, I really, really liked this scene for two reasons:

Suit Hanger because businessman.

“But they’re also pretty shitty beer-storage devices.”

We initiated contact. They conquered Earth.

Yeah, that’s pretty cool. My dad was UDT Frogmen, so he did a couple lock-outs from Subs. But I know he was not a big fan and I’ve heard him say he doesn’t know how sailors did it for months on end.

My father spent about two years on the USS Essex carrier between ‘61 and ‘64. I sent this article to him with the question of how many of these terms were familiar and how many were more recent additions. This was his response:

I used to live in Washington DC, which requires annual emissions tests. My 1997 Volvo V90 wagon (because Jalop) repeatedly failed the computer diagnostic test, which I guess they run to determine smog emissions or something (not really sure). I was told during four different visits that it was not passing emissions…

I will start:
