Well hold on - I think one of the reasons Adventure Time is so successful is because it’s targeted towards kids. Cartoons which take pride in their wacky or dark sides, but which aren’t bound by family friendly standards tend to over-reach and lose any and all actual depth.

I just spent, no joke, 3 hours watching these videos. I cringed a little bit during one where they stuck a sticker on a gorgeous red 240 station wagon, though.

Doug, I’m tired of seeing the same Elise image tagged on every one of your articles. Couldn’t you just write a new book?

yup

I guess this was inevitable...

Came here all ready to be indignant, full of scoff, and drop a Skip Rogers video.

Actually there is a third type - those who’ve never even heard of the plastic-tubbed off-roaders - but I’ve yet to meet one of those.

Yup, it’s an old LA game called Full Throttle. My favorite of the bunch.

At least they get a railing...

This is, like, the third time this has come up in this comment thread. Looking out of a window and looking at a TV are not the same thing. Not only can a TV not reproduce the same light spectrum as the sun faithfully, but you lack parallax. Even if it could track your position around the cabin and change it’s image…

Can knock over wind mills, still can’t derail train...

Question from a starry-eyed motorcycle wannabe with zero experience:

Every time I finally feel sort of quasi-car-savvy, an article on some rarely reported motor-sport gets posted to Jalop and I have to Google a whole new set of words just to understand the comments.

Think that’s bad? I’m still holding out for a new Extreme-G.

So what you’re saying is that you keep a bunch of red herrings around?

Overlord was Pikmin that I could actually play. It’s not that Pikmin is a bad series (no, it’s actually great) but I get stressed out in an amazingly visceral way when my Pikmin die; Overlord let’s me feel a little bit better about it.
