I can’t stress how important it is when taking pictures of your car to make sure your thumb is squarely over the license plate. If they can read ANY of the digits they’ll come murder you in your sleep.

Irrational’ definitely works both directions. I just find Jason’s bald spot to be ... calming. Reassuring.

Raph, I enjoy your prose but I’d rather stare at Torchinsky’s bald spot than your face, it’s the damndest thing. Don’t ask me to explain, it’s an irrational disdain like how my wife hates dolmas. Dolmas are objectively inoffensive, right? Yet here we are. 

Could Jason’s bald spot host one of these videos?

I probably need to go anger management classes as instead of being astonished or repulsed by this abomination to Fieros ... I want to *hurt* those people responsible.

That post-apocalyptic Torchinsky illustration at the lede which consists of repurposed Thomas Kinkade dreck is the best example I’ve yet seen of polishing a turd into something worthwhile. Bravo!

164hp from 3 liters? That’s nearly malaise era pow-ah! Our 1 liter Abarth with a minor ECM tune bumps against 200hp with 1/3 the displacement.

Aren’t cars ... portable? Why stop at slashing the tires on nearby parked cars when they could extend this bonkers policy to every car in the city?

Here’s our survivor, a ‘96 2 door Rav4. Aren’t they just huggable?

I spent most of an entire day disassembling/reassembling the 16-70mm kit lens that came with my Sony Alpha a6000, the SELP1650. I curse that string of letters/digits and the brilliant, incomprehensible engineering that went into its rotating barrels that do interdimensional MC Escher magic, all dependent upon tiny

I’m a car guy. In my driveway is a Corvette, Nissan Pao and an Abarth. When I’m headed across town or further guess which set of keys I instinctually grab?

“People are allowed to like different types of movies ...”

I’m not surprised that the guy willing to criticize Fury Road would get dunked on by Jalopnik’s commentariat. A dissenting opinion is never welcomed. Let’s be honest: most Jalop readers also think Fast & Furious films are “good”, so that’s a low cinematic bar to hurdle in this forum.

Logic underpinned with real world experience.
Count me in. Don’t let ‘perfect’ be the enemy of ‘good enough’.

Very reminiscent of the no-fμcks-given O.C. & Stiggs ‘gila monster’ - a vehicle and film I still can’t believe hasn’t been featured as a Jalop classic.

Any Penn & Teller fans of Desert Bus out there?

Once upon a time people knew how to bittorrent then seemingly overnight mass amnesia set in.

It’s guys like you with your flatulent comments that stink up the place. I’m *firmly* with Bradley: I’m a white dude with no tats or grommets in my ears and I’ve still been fucked with by the po-po more times than seems possible, at least until the grey came in and I sported a shorter hair style. Cops in America have

Take it from me as I’ve been down the making-it-faster path and regretted it: keep it stock. I own your bike’s arch nemesis, the Kawasaki AR80 and a friend talked me into making it “faster”. I really haven’t ridden it since. I got a big bore kit but it was cheaply made and the cylinder wasn’t bored perfectly round and

I’m sure he meant “shebang” and not schlemiel.

So Roger Moore was born in 1927 and Octopussy debuted in 1983 and Roger Moore is 70 years old ...
