Me: Owner of a 2008 5 series, with a dead battery. Mr. AAA gives me a jump start. I asked him if he would sell me a battery. He said he’d like to, but BMW has to program it. I call the BMW shop. Cost? (Go ahead, guess.)

Word. Last time I spent this much coin on an MacBook Pro ($2,400 on early 2011 MacBook Pro 15), the logic board—THE LOGIC BOARD!—crapped out. Essentially unrepairable, as a replacement costs more than the laptop was worth, and was only warranted for 60 days. Despite legions of these failing, Apple only offered an…

But then Facebook’s trademarks team should have done a logo search on their own.

I would give you a 1,000 stars if I could. Too many people said, “The lesser of two evils is still evil” to justify voting for Stein instead of Clinton. One of the most boneheaded statements.

Mike Shanahan: “I’ve had some experience with that. Welcome to the club, Bill!”

He’s on a rookie contract. He ain’t making that much. And not being able to play his best position lowers the value of his next contract.

I think he meant “hoovering”.

I drove one of these once (in-law’s car) on a long highway trip. It was indeed awesome.

And Mingo was almost certainly going to be released by the Seahawks this year.

And Kaep’s phone will still remain silent.

What about Leia? (serious question)
