I can’t believe we’re two years in and STILL have to explain the difference between spreading disease and catching disease.

Is it in bad taste? Yes, very bad. However, you can see he’s covering his nose and mouth fully. That’s the whole point of the mandate, cover nose and mouth. There’s no mandate saying what material must be used. 

Subaru will gladly sell you a WRX if you need AWD and a car that can go round corners for generally the same money. 

Elizabeth, you are awesome. You are one of the best things about Jalopnik. We’ve met at Watkins Glen. I respect you a lot. Respectfully, you are dead wrong on this.

He didn’t have a problem with her being there until she and her entourage decided to make themselves larger than the event in which they were participating as guests.

Martin Brundle is right and Elizabeth Blackstock is wrong.

Shows up on a grid with about $100m in equipment sitting around. Thinks she needs bodyguards.

I disagree, Elizabeth. I don’t know how exactly it works, but aren’t these celebrities the guests of F1? They haven’t paid to get in the gate, they aren’t paying for food or suites or the grid access that NO mortal can get (not even at COTA). It seems the least they can do is make themselves available for interviews…

A celebrity on the grid with a dozen(?) people in their entourage, just for the social media... fuck ‘em. The one thing I agree with Brundle on, is that there are die-hard F1 fans that can’t get on the grid.

FWIW, entering the track and pits and being in F1 is being part of a very large TV show. If you aren’t interested in it, grab a seat with the rest of the plebes.

Piloting the Ever Given?

The suspect has not left the Suez Canal for three weeks.

I imagine the first cop was like, “OK, I’ll just stroll by, slap this fucker on, and move along without her noticing.” But eventually word got around the precinct and everybody decided they wanted to play The Wire, too...

Glued to a log and tossed into the Mississippi is exactly how my parents found me.

Tape it to a drone and spell ACAB in the sky.

They probably wanted their beauty sleep.

I’m surprised no one has suggested driving in phallic shaped routes. 

How dumb do you have to be to send multiple officers to affix a tracking device presumably in broad daylight or under parking lot lights? Do it at 3 in the morning idiots. 

Exactly. If you made it part of MY car, that shit is mine, and I’ll do with it as I please.

I would consider it a gift. I would also consider mailing it to Abu Dhabi too. Or gluing it to a log and tossing it in the Mississippi.
