A senior TSA official named Audrey W***** once pulled a power trip like this on me, it was extremely frustrating knowing that they can put you on a secret list as a whim just to ruin your life. It galls me that I have to kiss their asses when I encounter them while doing my job, but I’ve better things to do than fight…

If I knew who the HOA terrorist was that sent the tow truck onto my private property, I’d make them regret their own birth.

The day I consent to live under under the capricious and arbitrary rule of a HOA is the day you’ll know I’ve suffered brain damage.

Sowing chaos in the free world is Putin’s goal. Anything and everything that makes our lives harder, creates mass migration or pain is his M.O. FFS, Brexit was his doing and the EU’s sudden rise of Putin aligned candidates is his dark money’s results. Frederick Pohl had all this figured out decades ago when he wrote…

Sycophantic suck-ups suffering suffocation sounds sublime.

Wouldn’t it be far cheaper to just give Cybertruck owners a brown paperbag to wear over their head in shame than to wrap the truck in vinyl?

Asking for a friend.

Met the insane guy behind this contraption at the ‘24 Concours d’Lemons by the Amelia Concours, my kinda guy. Thinking outside the box ... with a 2% milk jug and amplification.

Here’s a closer look at the amp and speakers:

There’s just not enough songs praising the Pinto.

If anyone can find a higher quality version of this video - or even where I might buy the 7" I’ll put you on my Christmas card list.

The current U-Haul auto trailers are a hair too wide for my ‘49 Beetle and the one time I used one I *had* to make it work. Both of my 135mm width tires were half off the ramps which, in retrospect, I should never have attempted.

So I bought a single axle, aluminum tilt trailer that’s both perfect for my tiny car as…

Considering that Putin’s terrorists shot flight MH17 filled with nearly 300 vacationing Danes out of the sky over Ukraine and then denied it despite a mountain of blatant evidence proving they’re responsible, I expect zero decency from Russia. Considering they had rape and torture rooms in Bucha, they’re capable of…

Russian troll farm commenters and AI bots have scripts notifying them that new stories have dropped at Jalopnik which puts their insane BS at the top of the discussions, and I’m sick of it. Jalopnik’s moderators should promptly delete these 1st comments upon the publishing of stories.

That’s a great episode, Chicago really biffed that one.

Re. automated enforcement, I’m not a fan. It’s often abused. I got a 32 in a 20 automated speeding ticket for an empty stretch of street parallel to a levee in New Orleans on a quiet Sunday morning. I didn’t pay it out of principle and ignored the threatening…

I can’t stand them and feel like a chump when I do click through them and their wall of ads that update with each click.

And that’s why Musk is so keen on fellating Trump to gain access to being in his cabinet: the end of regulation and accountability.

This election is killing me, I can’t believe that my country is speeding towards a cliff and that every low-IQ person is headed to the polls to pull the lever for their own downfall. Is…

Something / anything must be done. Hopefully the punitive damages awarded will be hundreds of millions $$$ to set an example what Musk’s psycho hubris has cost him.

That was the first thought that occurred to me:

Mazel tov! Glad to hear others chime in on the reliability of the Fiat 500 and its derivatives. I did have an expensive axle replacement on the passenger side, but stuff like that I consider consumables. There’s literally nothing like it on today’s market and that makes it a unicorn.

Our 2013 Fiat Abarth thumbs its nose at Stellantis criticisms: it’s been rock solid and more fun per dollar than it has any right to be. I’ll take it over the equivalent VW or Mini any day, any time.

In addition to your spot-on analysis of Colin’s lazy criticism of a movie prop car trope, he also failed at the basic math of the oldest of Gen-X: the oldest are 59, not 65 and the youngest are just a bit over 40.

If Colin wants to insult Boomers, he needs to get the age right. 

We live in the worst of all timelines. That anyone thinks this bag of milk is cool completely blows my mind.

These were my exact sentiments before the Fiat Abarth finally and tragically ended production.
