This just in: Anime character designers are lazy. Film at eleven.

I walked into a Gamestop to browse. Before I could do anything, I was asked if I owned an XBox One, and told that they were offering preorders for a system without Kinect for $100 less. I declined and then left. True story.

Unfortunately, with all the environmental crack-downs of the time, gutless engines were all the rage in big American cars. Damn shame.

Bonus points for NOT including Cadillac's V-8-6-4 cars. Almost every internet-compiled list of "worst cars ever" includes GM's early attempt at variable displacement, which was actually a well-built, reliable vehicle, just with some poorly-implemented technology that could be easily deactivated.

The Cavalier at least knew its place in the world. Cheap and crappy from the factory. I had many friends (and one gf) with them in the 95-2002 era. However, the 97-03 Malibu came onto the scene during probably the most competitive era of midsize sedans, but was woefully behind the competition in every way. I feel bad

Eh, this isn't an issue for me. Other motorists drive like idiots in so many other ways that need to be addressed before something as simple as amber directionals can begin to make a difference. It doesn't matter what color your blinkers are if you don't friggin' use 'em, for instance. I've never had someone cut me

Pffff, that's nothing. I was done with that game after playing it for 20 minutes.

So I'm out of the loop on this one. What was the issue? Were heavily-weighted key rings turning off and/or falling out of the ignition of vehicles? That's... impressive. I would have liked to see a test done to see what sort of weight and conditions are required to actually have that happen. I know I see people who

Yeah. Really sad that the quote in the article glossed over Skyward Sword's contributions by simply saying "even motion controls aren't perfect", but they're a million times closer to the real sensation than pretty much any other example given. They didn't always work perfect for me, but it was damn close. How do you

I did this with the PS2. During that era, I was a Gamecube owner, but a few years back, a friend of mine gave me his old PS2 and a couple of games. I hit a gamestop and picked up DQ8, Burnout 3, Shadow of the Colossus, GTA and a bunch of other great hits. Probably the most fun I've ever had for such short change.

I started reading Wonder Woman because Cliff Chaing's covers were so awesome. Of course, I kept reading it because it the story was just as awesome.

As usual, I don't get most of these, and even the ones I do get aren't funny. That's webcomics, for ya.

Whenever I do something stupid behind the wheel of my car, I turn it into a triumph and bask in it. You see, I have a 60 mile commute to work every day, and I have witnessed, and been victim to the brazen ignorance and stupidity of so many drivers that on the rare occasion I do slip up, I take comfort in the fact that

Fender mounted mirrors were mandated in Japan because the mirrors had to be visible through the area that was cleaned by the windshield wipers. They look cool, but compared to current door mounted mirrors, visibility isn't great. Fender mirrors couldn't have been very aerodynamic either. Door mounted they're more aero

I was gonna vote "Crack Pipe" simply because there's been too many mods on this car, (I rarely trust mod work unless I know it was done by someone who knows what they're doing) and I think for the price, I'd rather hunt down a low-mileage Marauder, even if it does have 100 less horsies, and make my own mods. But then

No. He has a truck. Far easier to load and unload than a van. What kind of vehicle would I like to transport lumber, plywood, mulch, gravel, pvc pipe, and/or lawn furniture in? Not a van, I'll tell you that. I understand the whole internet wants to be down on America just because. I dig it, that's cool, whatever, but

I'm not even a fan of pickups, but I argue that there are worse things to commute in. In fact, I wager that most cars are worse to commute in. I could just as easily say "Geesh, you non-Americans and your not-pickup-trucks". They are amazingly useful vehicles for a blue-collar working man, or the guy who likes to do

Seriously. Why would anyone argue with that other than to say "Lol, big dumb "Murrikan truck!!" They're comfy as hell with plenty of space.

All this hassle to go see a really long wall? Sounds like China is more trouble than it's worth. I'll just look at it from Google Earth.

As usual, most of these don't make any sense to me. Awkward Zombie is a little more low-brow than usual, but at least I get it.
