Setting aside the ridiculousness of the whole thing, who the hell thinks that a $200,000 vehicle only depreciates at a rate of $1.000 per year?

Yes, because Sotheby’s, a company that makes commissions from billions of dollars of sold items per year, is going to risk that to pump up the value of some Porsche.
There’s no way Sotheby’s would risk its reputation to pull something like this. Anyone who thinks they might has no clue how much reputation and trust play into people allowing someone else to sell their multi-million dollar playthings.
VW’s response:
Your post is literally the first time that the word socialism appears. Not everything is about politics.
There is simply no way a company like Sotheby’s would do this on purpose. When you are one of the very few places that people trust to auction high-dollar items, you don’t do things like this on purpose, ever, for any reason.
Remember kids...God told everyone to put millions of dollars into making sure that our neighbors can’t get married. It’s right in the Bible...or...er...well, I’m sure that’s a rule, someplace.
Nope. You can’t come out and say “I realize that the company is terrible, and I shouldn’t give them my money, but I’m so lazy that I won’t drive me kid someplace else” and not expect to answer for it.
As much as I hate to admit it, it’s pretty smart to say this after getting throttled be the Indians. No one is talking about how terrible the team looked, they’re talking about this.
Just because there are appropriate uses for a word, doesn’t mean this use wasn’t trashy and homophobic. Let me guess, you’re one of thos epeople who want to play the “a fag is just a bundle of sticks or a british word for a cigarette...that’s what he meant” people?
It’s very possible he knew a raid was going to be starting at that gym, and drove there to take part in it. Gyms don’t move, so it’s absolutely possible he drove there and opened the game once he arrived.
It’s actually very possible that he drove to the raid spot, pulled over and then started playing. My daughter and I were playing quite a bit when the game first came out, and we would often stop at gyms or pokestops on the way home.
Too ugly for that much cash.
I get it, cars are getting more expensive, but damn...a $30k civic? The new one is nice, but that just seems like a ton.
There are plenty of hotels, including some very nice ones that will gladly accept you and your dog. We stayed at a great B&B last year that actually set out a dog bed with welcome treats for our beagle, and we’ve seen the same thing from everything from Hiltons to Comfort Inns over the years.
If you want to dress up in Victorian era dresses and have tea with your dolls, you do it at home, with the blinds closed. If you want to slather your body in bbq sauce and slide naked down a spiral slide on the playground, you do that stuff in your backyard, not at the public playground.
Is it weird that I’m this annoyed that not a single damn article gives us this information, after every story starts by including the dog in the passenger list?
Because only superstars hit walk-off grand slams, heck, look at the list of these amazing players that had the same catharsis.
Enough with this whole inability to separate artists from their art. If we’re going to stop looking at, listening to, etc anything from anyone that does anything we as a society don’t like, we’re going to have to empty every museum in the goddamn world, and cancel radio as a medium. TV, you’re on thin ice as well.
Calling people racists isn’t getting old. Assholes BEING racist is getting old.
