Beat me to it. Cheers!

Because weight doesn’t have a ton to do with Vmax, and the Bugatti has 1500bhp, and 25 years of aerodynamic advancements.

Actually, that’s basically exactly wrong, if you look at the people (most of them) who’ve bought the Veyron and now Chiron.

Yes, the car mags focus on the numbers, and they are utterly insane, but the buyers are buying it because those numbers come with the same kind of luxury their yacht has. As nice as a P1 or…

Don’t pay for other people’s mods.

Against who?

I’m not dismissive of City at all. As I said, I’m a City fan. Though that might explain why I was down on them, too, hmm?

Apparently you misunderstood. I was being sarcastic.

So, Pep, who dominated in Spain, will somehow perform worse in England, where the quality of play isn’t as good?

Do EPL teams have PSLs, though? The game-cost is only part of it, here in the States. Obviously, the longer you hold your season tickets, the less the real cost, but $10k up front is pretty normal from what I’ve seen. That’s a hell of a barrier to entry that I don’t think you see in the UK.

I’m using Kenji Lopez-Alt’s technique from seriouseats.com

10 pounds of confited, then deep fried wings
2 smoked pork shoulders
2 gallons of chili

I take your Aaron Hernandez, and I raise you one Rae Carruth.

Thank you! I’ve been trying to find words for why I disagree with calling these fools “terrorists”. They’re not actually trying to use force to intimidate people into action. They’re trying to use the threat of force, when they’re not actually capable of doing it.

Stop by one between 7 and 9am, or around noon. Lots and lots of people eat food from there. Day-laborers, or on-the-go folks, primarily, but the quality, particularly at newer locations, is much better than you think. Not good, per se, but certainly on par with generic fast food.

Now THAT’S what the F-35 money should’ve been spent on.

Is the monkey wearing the top hat, or the inverted bartender?

Because they’re still, essentially, using the same shit that the G.I. Joe toys were modeled after in the 1980’s.

Well said! There’s also the issue of the car’s background. A clean 20 year old 911 is worth something. A repossessed 20 year-old 911 is something a collector won’t touch.

Story time from a friend of mine:

So, should I be proud or mortified that I hit the trifecta, for the top three on the list.
