Fair point ;)

I think you’re putting way too much to heart that the 2-digit number on the side of the road is infallible and the only safe speed anyone could ever possibly drive.

More unicorn and faerie thinking. They SHOULD do that, sure. But there’s lots and lots of “shoulds” in the world that never happen. People “should” work as hard as they can 100% of the time. People “should” eat properly and get sufficient exercise. People “should” pay all their bills on time. A particular person might

I think you need to go back and review basic physics. Force increases as speed increases. If you assume there are zero crashes, then MAYBE speeding isn’t an issue. But since in the entire history of motor vehicles there has not been a single year in which there were zero crashes, that assumption is all unicorns and

Personally, I think it’s a “too many people drive” issue.

Man, I WISH I lived in a world where “stupid” and “selfish” could be trained out of people! Glad you live there, but that has never, ever, ever, ever matched my experience.

This isn’t a training issue. Everyone knows speeding is bad. Some people are just stupid to realize when they’re doing it and others just too selfish to give a shit. Like we all should have learned in elementary school, it ain’t the 20 kids doing what they’re supposed to, it’s the 2 that aren’t that fuck it up for

Yeah but.... Sox fans have always been a little off ;)  

Supporting the Yankees is the default. It’s the low hanging fruit. Any idiot can support the Yankees because it takes zero effort. Even people who don’t know what baseball is and why they should care support the Yankees. It’s literally the sports stance that takes the least amount of conviction to hold. It’s the

K, BYE!

Then they get really dirty with Pay up or your Kid dies.  That’s when shit gets real.  

I’m saying that if sellers could dictate prices and buyers just had to pay it no questions asked, then they’d make it as high as they wanted - aka a ridiculous example like $150,000 in 1980, or over half a million in today’s dollars.  Buyers get to say, “Hey, I don’t have that much.  I ain’t buying.” which means

The Bronco is also a perfect example of how this is hurting manufacturers. I know most of my friends tend to favor imports in one form or the other (usually Japanese, but not always). They all agree that if they were going to buy domestic, they’d buy Ford. What can I say? We don’t tend to skew GM around these parts.

No, that’s patently false. If that were true, the price of a new car in 1980 would have been $150,000. The price of a car is the intersection of what someone is willing to sell AND what someone is willing to buy. Sellers don’t dictate price and buyers have to accept that price. In a sellers market, sellers have more

It’s not like I was ever going to buy one anyway because I live in a different tax bracket than the F150 no matter the drivetrain. But this still a bit disappointing and hopefully isn’t a trend that makes it down market.  

Or why they refuse to list certain models, like MG. You can search for the phrase “MG” but it’s a crapshoot if you’ll find cars or something else (like welders, in this case). Apparently you can’t list “MG” as the model because a lot of people are putting, like, Fiat as the model then saying in the text “yeah, I know

This is the true Republican agenda - companies should never be taxed for any reason and should never, EVER be regulated for any reason. Everything else is just a smokescreen to get butts to the election booth so they can chase their true agenda.

And what about the 3 Presidents who oversaw the two decades of abuse?  Two are dead, but there’s a friggin’ building on campus named after him.  One of the three is alive and well and in charge of another University.  

We don’t have to wait. The cops were trying to find a kidnapped girl. Then they shot her and she died. The end.

Personally, my toilets were equally clean either way, so I stopped sitting down to pee because it was more work for me. But again, do whatever moves you personally behind closed doors.
