You mean like this?

Biggest subway failure since Jared.

“...and on top of being labeled a girl’s car...”

This happened to my only nephew, my eldest sister’s kid.

Why do I love my car?

What would you define as a risk you would take in a safe car versus an unsafe car? At least, in a situation that would increase the possibility of death?

I’m so glad you brought this up. I’m going through this right now! Last year I bought a low miles (8000) one year old Audi TTS with all the toys. I did my research. According to the Audi website the TTS has metal side mirror covers, an extra 55ish HP and the S badging on front and rear. One issue is the torque on the…

I guess where I kind of get confused is that if a guy were to say “hey, I’m uncomfortable about sharing a space with gay men because I don’t want to be changing near someone who is sexually attracted to me”, we’d unconditionally be like “ok, dial the homophobia back, no one cares about your body.” I struggle to see…

Well the shocking part wasn’t realizing that using gender-neutral bathrooms would make me uncomfortable, it was in realizing that it is a social construct no more powerful than ones that I regularly looked down on as silly, worthless, or morally reprehensible. The fact that someone in Jim Crow America probably felt…

One of the more shocking realizations in my life is that I am probably as uncomfortable using a non-gender-specific restroom as my great-grandparents were at using a non-race-specific restroom. (Note: I am not saying that race and sexuality are the same or that their civil rights movements are completely parallel).

You’re preaching to the choir; I got charged with DUI at 19 and a local news patch website posted an article on it that turns up on the first page when you google my name. No mention of the fact that it was eventually dropped and my actual record is clean. And which is an employer more likely to check, google or my…

Pretty much. Crazy thing about most minivans is you can put more in them than a Ridgeline. Sienna, Odyssey, and Grand Caravan (not sure about the ‘Pacifica’) can eat an 8' X 4' sheet of plywood laid flat. There’s a lot of pickups sold today that can’t do that.

What do you do when your Aston breaks down and you don’t get a loaner from the dealership?

THANK YOU. I came here just to comment on that. It’s Uber’s fault when the guy was informed both via email AND the driver that there would be a NYE surge price?

He wasn’t too drunk to MANUALLY ENTER THE MULTIPLIER in the app to confirm his ride. Fuck that guy. Uber is guilty of some horrible anti-labor shit but I have no sympathy for these idiots who can’t do math.

1) The universe built a fusion reactor billions of years ago. But again, without a transistor or lithium ion battery, comparing an electric car made 130 years ago to one of today is ridiculous.

My son is in the army and I could have told you that the decision to allow women to just be soldiers wouldn’t go over with male soldiers at all. I want to smack him every time he refers to the women in his group as “females” because I can just hear in his voice how that word (and how he and the rest of his “buddies”…

The only gravity stronger than a black hole is a pink hole.

Interesting bit of trivia: when the SEALs trained at the fake Bin Laden complex, they used a chain-link fence instead of the mud wall that actually existed around the compound. That's why one of their blackhawks went down during the raid. Chain link allows rotor wash to dissipate whereas the real mud wall channeled it…
