Yes, so I guess “Christ in a cracker” would be more accurate. Also, I think he was diabetic if the hideously sweet taste of his blood is anything to go by.

I’ll bet a lot of people think the salad options at McD’s are “healthier.” Otherwise, why would they be eating them? It can’t be the taste.

Fine, but I don’t think it’s necessarily reasonable to expect people to be fully aware of the tax code in whatever state/city/municipality/wide spot in the road they happen to be passing through. Also, some tax jurisdictions charge different rates for different categories of goods (food vs clothing, for example).

I don’t know what you have against McDonald’s. They are leading the fight to make fast food better for you than so-called “healthy” foods. Let me illustrate:

When I first became interested in sushi many years ago, I new nothing about it and the internet didn’t exist (also, cars rode on tree-trunk suspension with stone wheels). To learn, I went to a local sushi bar, threw myself on the mercy of the hostess, and was given a masterclass in the cuisine and its attendant…

I’m going with “both.” And cheap. Very very cheap.

I always considered those “western” items to be useful for occasions when I’d be ordering for a group that included finicky children or unadventurous adults. It’s bad enough ordering takeaway Chinese or Indian for a large group, without a couple of people piping up with the perennial whine, “weeee don’t liiiiiike it.”…

After reading on, I notice ten other people made the same point. Removing to reduce the spam.

Marie Antoinette said it better, “let them eat cake.”

Yes I do, but it’s evidently insufficient, given that 50 million Americans live in poverty and another 100 million are just barely treading water. Half the country, in other words, is poor. Seems we shouldn’t be spending so much on luxury items like war toys when we haven’t figured out how to feed and clothe ourselves…

I had an S3 and a Griffith back in the day, and I can think of no other plausible explanation for the interior layout. I was actually pleasantly surprised to find a conventional pedal arrangement; I half expected the clutch pedal to be in the glovebox.

TVR just loved to mess with owners. Every single design meeting must have started off with a variation on, “OK, this is the heater control. Where would you least expect to find it?”

This efficiency at soaking up tax dollars also means there’s apparently little left for education, health, welfare, and domestic infrastructure. By starving these areas of the economy of resources, those in power can ensure the perpetuation of a stupid, scared, sick populace who can be easily manipulated, intimidated…

I initially thought it might be in backwards code, but it doesn’t make any sense read that way, either. Interestingly, it doesn’t make any less sense, so there’s that.

Depending on the kit, it could be even worse. Some of them only let you open the doors to the first detent, so you have to squeeze out of the car if you don’t want to swing the doors upward.

Ahh. Very similar architectural style.

Looks like Toledo.

Very lucky he didn’t have a passenger. They wouldn’t have survived.

That makes sense. Another commenter thought that the bus stayed out in the traffic lane to ensure cars wouldn’t overtake. I guess they never thought someone would be reckless enough to try to pass in the parking lane, because that’s nuts.

Yes, I know this. I also know that school buses don’t magically deploy Star Trek-style shields when they turn on their flashing lights and stop sign. People run lights and signs all the time.
