“Luckily” for me I never need to wonder about the unexplained bruises on my body, because I’m clumsy enough that I constantly run into things. People like me are why battered women can plausibly use the excuse that they “walked into a door” because I actually do walk into doors on a somewhat regular basis.

Remember that credit reporting is a purely private enterprise

They probably finished killing that car that day, and if the driver is still alive, I’d bet that he’s in prison. Not from anything that was done in this video, but someone who would do this would probably also make other less-than-good decisions and probably get caught in the act.

I sure do hope so! I’d love to pick up a base model (with no tech package) in a couple of years.

The phrase “better than sex” is overused so much that it’s meaningless, but nitrous really is better than sex.

It’s not high-quality enough to be gold paint. That’s the good stuff. A Caliber would be whatever paint isn’t as good as gold (I’m not familiar with huffing culture, but I know that gold is the best).

I’ve never seen this meme. Please post more.

I’m not a vegetarian or anything, but there’s something about the skin of animals that just seems gross to me. It doesn’t matter whether it’s pigs, chicken, fish, or whatever—eating animal skin always grosses me out.

So comments will go from 200 “people” screaming about X is better than Y to a normal, civilized conversation between a dozen people about the virtues of each.

saying stuff that would get you in trouble at work or poeople you know on the internet probably is never a great idea

I had always been told that the dirt/water/gunk which can accumulate at the bottom of your gas tank (especially if your car is older as mine are) could be sucked up and clog your fuel filter if you run your tank down too low, but recently I’ve read that many consider this an old wives’ tale.

He’s hilarious, and the funny thing is that his act is 100% clean.

just when it starts to get golden, carefully pour beaten eggs over the top.

I’m not naive enough to think that my taxes do anything, but you sounded like one of those anti-tax nuts who thinks that we don’t need any taxes or government services. I agree with you that we need to eliminate most if not all of the military industrial complex and that there’s a lot of fraud and abuse with tax…

I was gonna make a joke about you being stuck in the 90's, but I couldn’t think of anything good.

That’s a good-looking dashboard and those gauges are gorgeous. It’s too bad that airbag regulations ruined dashboards.

I thought the main purpose of phones were to text and call people.

No, we did not have services or infrastructure in the years prior to 1913. There were less than 150 miles of paved roads in the United States and less than 20% of Americans had a bathtub in their house. Most people also lived on farms or in small towns, so there was no need for most services or infrastructure, but now…

Taxation is the agreement that civilized societies enter into in order to pay for services and infrastructure for the common good. Some tax dollars do get wasted, but if you think that taxation is theft you’re a lunatic.

Yeah, it’s people who get the EITC and the Additional Child Tax Credit, so I doubt that it’s anyone who reads this blog and very few people in the U.S.
