I really don't see the big effing deal. Not a party I'd go to, but whatever. The way you begin to move past bad things is to make light of them over time. Un-bunch your panties, I say.

Final observation ... what self-respecting homicidal semi carrying flammable materials doesn't have the common decency to BLOW UP at the end when it crashes to the bottom of a ravine?

Ok, now he's pushing 80. Come on what's he got in that rig?

Were Valiants really only capable of a 60mph top speed?

Fascinating read. Thanks for sharing.

Texting while driving, I'll put a 20 on it.

Thinking about this solely in business terms...

"Now, I realize that Buick is trying hard to appeal to young Americans with stuff like the Encore and Regal, but short of an Audi-style renaissance like the one Cadillac is experiencing, I'm not sure I see that happening. I think too many young buyers will always think of Buick as the car their grandparents drive."

That would be a pretty cool easter egg, random big foot sightings.

Call me crazy, but that looks so much like Leonardo as to have me believe it might not be unintentional. Weirder things have happened than having a video game company pay abstract homage to a childhood cartoon hero.

I think you're all friggin nuts. that car's beautiful. There, I said it.

Really is an amazing commercial.

Yep, those were movies that were designed to hook kids, because to any adult who knows how to do their own oil change the writing is... pretty bad. I remember seeing the first trailer in the theater... the collective sighing was audible. But hey, they made money.

Yup. Pretty much why i don't like to go to live games. The assholish-ness is rampant. Cousin taping this? Everyone else smiling because this cute little guy is being a good fan? I want no part.

I'm not a bed-maker at all, but I'll admit I do like getting into a made, clean bed better. If I could pay someone to do it, I would.

Macklemore is about as far from "gangster rapper" as you get, FYI. His whole style is the exact opposite of gangster rappers. He sings about positive messages, has respect for women, and likes the gays.

I fail to see how this is any better.

Coming from MA, with a city whose name forms the basis for the yummy sauce, I feel like our pronunciation can serve as a guide...

I'm just some guy who can't afford the price of entry for either the R8 or the Gallardo, so can really only fantasize about owning either. That said, all this back and forth about the relative lameness of the R8 sounds like a whole lot of splitting hairs to me. R8 = incredible machine by just about any normal…
