Ah, what the heck, I’ll take a swing at it. Ignoring the fact that I was just saying dislike for autonomous cars on a car-guy website just might have more to do with many people here having car-related jobs, yeah. It will be like a switch insofar as the big picture is concerned. Ever career hopped into a radically new…

I have no idea what your point is here.

Or, a scenario FAR more likely, they make their living in an industry that will be gutted when autonomous cars kill 10million+ jobs.

My mom was great when I was younger, but then it all fell apart when I hit my teenage years, and didn’t really get better. Well, she wasn’t ‘cool’ per se, but wasn’t abusive, just extremely difficult, angry, and stress-prone. That stress and anger got worse and worse until I got fed up sometime in my early 30’s. I…

Or, to put it in jalopnik terms - You mean a professional race car driver in an actual race car drives faster than normal people in their everyday beaters?!? Those normal people clearly should not be driving at all.

Unfortunately, with self-driving cars becoming an eventuality, this is going to happen.

Those prices really aren’t unreasonable, wow.

I’ve been murdered five times buying cars the internet.

Wow, so armed civilians weren’t able to take out highly trained professional armed with rifles and tactical gear using their pistols? It’s entirely newsworthy to stack the deck like that. Totally. And, of course that scenario is so common that concealed carry is obviously silly and pointless.

(That said, kudos to TTAG…

Just gotta say that, “noxious comets of shittiness” is a beautifully evocative descriptor.

I hate the shit outta those rims. Ruins the whole thing. Yeah, I know they can be swapped out, but someone with taste questionable enough to bolt those rolling shitpiles onto that waggoneer will likely have made many other questionable decisions as well.

Dealership body shop: Customer brings in her at-the-time three year old DTS for a repair to the left rear door. Repair happens, no sweat, car gets delivered. She comes back two days later losing her mind about how the body shop had RUINED her car and how she could not SEE out of her car now. Inquired as to what she…

This is my thought as well, especially as a write for a carrier that insures probably a third of the dealerships around here and regularly see cars annihilated on test drives.

Oh, very good news.

Carolla’s voice annoys me so badly, but I still enjoyed the interview. Like Leno, I want nothing to do with Carolla’s work as an entertainer, but I dig his passion for racing and cars.

An old friend of mine is in family law, and he makes a living from divorce, but would not claim to “win”.

Not a lawyer, but have been brought in multiple times as an expert witness in my field. I use a very similar line of thought. I’ve been paid my time for any file I’m likely to be called on, so my attitude is that I’ll talk on the phone about it for free. I’ll even do basic email stuff for free. But the moment I have…

As someone who lives in Virginia, I love how “going to jail in Virginia” has become a descriptor for a certain level of speed.

They look kinda fake-ish in person. Clean, smooth, very few panel openings. It looks like a giant toy. A giant, beautiful, deadly toy.

Certainly. Without question. But that also happens extremely rarely. Most motorcyclists hit by cars are in their lane and obeying traffic laws, including the speed limit.

Is it warm in there? Because you sure are talking outta your ass, son.
