A friend of mine bought a Crosstrek, and he’s done some absolutely insane washes in that thing (not roads, dried up desert washes), I think even he’s impressed by how far it’s outperformed his expectations. Though I keep recommending he upgrade his suspension and opt for some Team Dynamics w/ knobby tires if he…

Guy is lucky af. He’s also an idiot. I’ll stick with my naked Bonnie, ride with traffic, and proper riding pants/boots.

I try to regulate myself to one ‘alt’ jersey a year. The Town snagged up my $ even faster than last year’s Chinese New Year edition from Adidas. I probably won’t wear it as much though, Nike’s wonky “fitted” arm holes mean the 48's are dead on, but look too tight, and the 52's have this strange flappy part under the…

He was definitely caught up in legs. If you can’t see that at least a bit, you’re blind. As for the delayed reaction, it was probably him holding up enough to warrant weather to try and tough through it (and risk injury to himself), or just go limp and try and avoid landing too hard. Sometimes, when there’s a choice,…

I get all the twig n’ berries comments, but tbh, I’d say the worst thing about that landing was the hyper-compression of his right leg on top of the ledge (I’ve done that twice and it’s an absolute brick wall of pain), followed by landing directly on his right arm about halfway down the slope. With that amount of…

Looks amazing, though I’ll have to wait a while to play it on Android it seems. Nevertheless, two things. One: It’s the story of a first love, which means I’ve got a feeling the ending is going to be bittersweet at best, absolutely gut wrenching at worst. Two: Why does Florence look so much like my first gf/love?…

He may be an Old Guardian of craft brewing, but this Inevitable Adventure could lead to their Ruination.

This turd... (not the actual one, but also an ‘88 Plymouth Voyager) Had to reschedule the test because the blinkers blew out during the pre-test inspection. The only real plus was the person giving the test asked me to pull over during it so we could watch the police raid a meth house. Oh, Hender-tucky. A couple years…

Wow, you’ve really got me feeling the “olds” when I recall coding snake and breakout into my TI-83 so I’d have something to play during 6th period IB Physics in 11th grade. I also recall having a tough time with that class. I was only taking Trig/Pre-Cal at the time and the instructor kept referencing Calc II…

Living in a city (that’s infamously terrible for driving in general, let alone on 2 wheels), I would genuinely love to see more bikes on the road. It would help with traffic, pollution, and as a by-chance maybe safety (since you wouldn’t be the lone cycle surrounded by SUV’s). However, Harley Davidson’s are not the…

Dear god, let the Eagles win. If only to see what Always Sunny can do with that plot device.

I remember that once a British pub style bar opened in Las Vegas that decided they weren’t going to include gaming. I think it lasted 6 months. Sports on TV and bars go hand-in-hand. If the game is important to the crowd, then you turn the volume up. If it’s not, you keep the volume off to promote conversation among…

Nail on the head when it comes to using color scheme to represent the overall atmosphere of the game. It’s sad to see you’ve never played the game, especially being an artist (BFA here, I’d go for the M if it was worth my $). This game was one of the first that I would seriously use to contend against Ebert’s “video…

Back on NYE ‘99-’00, a guy died doing that in Las Vegas. He grabbed a live wire, was zapped, then fell on his head.

Working a heavy cash-based type of employment. I find that I get tipped more frequently when dealing with cash. It may not be as much in one swathe as on a card, but people that do tip (not everyone and that’s just part of the business) tend to leave at least a couple 1's every round and that adds up.

I did this (solo)for 3 and a half months back in ‘08. 14,000 miles up/down/across the good ‘ol USofA. I did it in my ‘03 Subaru WRX Sportwagon and it was a damn fine, grand adventure. Internal space is really a modal figure though. Are you sleeping inside the vehicle? Camping or motel? Pre-planned destinations or as…

Part of refereeing is having the players yap about how they feel a play went down. Unwritten job contract is that you just ignore it. Call the game how you’re seeing it, review if necessary, and continue play. If the player wants to get in your face about it, making it personal, smack him with a foul. Remind him that…

A fugue state? Does that mean there’s an RV capable of manufacturing top quality blue meth hidden on the outskirts of town?

I wear Brooks. I started after H.S. (where I ran XC) when I finally snapped out of “fashion” and opted for shoes that actually helped offset my (at the time) pretty bad pronation. Went to a specialty store, did the whole footprint and gait analysis thing and was fitted for Brooks GT’s. Right about the time I started…

The edited video does not look good on their part (tbf the original was taken down before I could see the full thing). I can say that inappropriate responses are definitely a coping mechanism. Especially when something hits your emotional center extremely hard. While I found a few of the background people being…
