Fucking *brutal*. I like it.

I like this. Go to honk the horn, jam it into reverse instead.

Come on don’t make me correct you about something so dumb... Mercury Topaz / Ford Tempo. These things were shit. So many cars we so boring back then... even the super cars we had sucked. Probably all slower than an Accord today, and worse to drive.

Bought mine at 13 years old, miles are... okay (lots of life left). I lose very little, and saved $24,000 over a new one. A new one is better, but to me, maybe only about $3k better. 

It’s a strange thing to comment on, isn’t it. I’m very obviously applying my own convictions to vehicle purchases, and you’re trying to dispute it. Why? It’s bizarre. Are you planning to win an argument?

Oh, I wouldn’t spend it on any car new or used. That’s ridiculous. Just commenting that the new Accord isn’t *worth* more than that, is all.

Why would I buy a new car when you’ll do it and take the hit? ;) Different priorities, I guess. Pissing away money on a car needlessly isn’t one of my passions, I guess.

“Gotham Steel” would make a fantastic porn name.

Just a little bit ago, myself, a Republican for most of my life, was called a “gas-lighting leftist” online because I called out the person trying to gaslight me. The U.S. is a lost cause, but all my stuff is here, and nobody will let us in their countries, so here we are. Grab some popcorn and enjoy this shit show.

Jesus I’d hope so. I can’t imagine dropping over 25k for a new Accord.

I decided to fly with low-level wind sheer as I departed Toledo Express... almost 30 kt gusting direct crosswind, and I accepted a midway runway takeoff (plenty of room, but it was a bad idea).

 Flew home to Purdue University in some awful turbulence. Made a straight in on 23, and blew my left tire (landing was fine;…

lol tell them it’s made in Wuhan for extra fun. ;)
I’m fine with things made in China... Hope this didn’t come off as some racist rant, but I’m not sure I’m at the point where I can buy a car from there. But to be fair, it wasn’t long ago that I felt this way about Korean cars; now they’re great.

Oh absolutely... I know China can make good stuff... I’m just not at the stage in life where I can buy a *car* made there. Man...

Had a ‘92 240sx hatch... loved the headlights. Always got half a hardon whenever I’d turn the lights on and watch them popup from the driver’s seat.

Never been to Berlin, so I can’t tell you the people in Munich smell worse, but I can tell you that train ride was cancer. Amazing city though; just think I could make a million dollars by selling deodorant there.

Agreed. Few people here would consider buying a car made there anyway. Cutting corners is fine for basic products, but I rely on a car to keep me alive.

But if you could call it a 747 Coupe then maybe?

I just fly my own tiny-ass 4 banger Beechcraft around, and even I can’t figure out how the hell *THAT* flies. I also can’t figure out why the hell they let me do it. Just all seems like a bad idea.

I haven’t ever been in a 747, but still amazed that such bigass planes can fly at all. I took a Lufthansa A340 to Munich…

Does the birka go on first, or the helmet?
