I’ve used this tool before for reports and such where a driving radius is needed:

Could work if you encapsulated the whole vehicle in Nerf foam. Otherwise the crash-happy ramp rats would put these out of commission within minutes.

Sometimes things don’t feel like they are choices but they really are. I had a hard time with that for a long time too, and am slowly getting better. Things like snacking, driving on the weekend, taking toll roads, paying for television service, cooking dinner, working out. It’s easy to let yourself believe you “don’t…

Hot coffee: Cream first. Iced coffee: Coffee first.

Standing, into a sink (NOTE: I puked into a sink once when I stayed with a friend and everyone got mad at me, probably because I chose the kitchen sink. I had no time for alternatives.)

Lol, axiom.

Yeah, agree. ‘You get what you pay for’ is not an Apple-exclusive axom.

This is America; we like our beer cold, our TV loud and our headlights blinding.

The classic 900 turbo has some definite issues in general, but god what a fun car to own when everything is working right. Setup from the factory to be very tail-happy. Pretty much built to do Scandy flicks.

The non-turbos have a different exhaust header that loses a lot of that sound, too. You can always tell the difference just by hearing it in person.

The real time savings is reducing the “weakest link” phenomenon where the entire line moves as slowly as the slowest pax. Each line needs multiple divestiture stations, like the self-checkout at the grocery store. The quicker people can get their stuff through before the slower people without making anyone feel like…

Same here, USSR breakup was my first world news story I understood/paid attention to.

I remember the 1988 election, but the first real world news I can recall was the Soviet Union breaking up. I was 8 at the time.

It’s the same at the city level. But the benefits are quite good and the work (to me) is very rewarding.

Used to be that way here, too. Last year they changed it so the color was access level instead. Not knowing who is contract and who is staff is sort of nice...

the cost of all the parts combined are some ten to twelve times the worth of the car as a whole

I do hope they offer some kind of incentives. If if they could offer something to get the Golf R under MSRP coupled with a decent financing offer (and actually find one to sell me) it would do a lot to keep me a VAG customer.

Good tip! Unfortunately Instacart isn’t in our area yet.

I signed up for Blue Apron last week, which I think counts. For the $300 or so we spend eating out (usually 2-3 times per week), Blue apron is not that much cheaper but hopefully my wife and I will be inspired to try new recipes to keep us on the healthier side of the spectrum.

Well, there most likely will be now that the issue has become so public.
