After briefly holding the title of “The Loneliest Man on Earth” — the title was taken from him by Jim Bransford from Marietta, Georgia. Bransford is the only known person to have watched Mariah Carey’s 2001 film “Glitter” in theaters.

If there was ever a brand where going electric would make a ton of sense, it would be Rolls Royce. Back in the early 00s, my dad owned a Phantom — and it was without a doubt the quietest car I have ever been inside.

I miss the VW tuner scene, especially with the older ones like this. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like the Fast & Furious era leaned a bit more towards Japanese compacts, so plenty of enthusiasts landed in Honda/Toyota/Nissan world, but few went the VW direction.

I booked DMX at a show in Atlanta around... I want to say it was Halloween 2011. Anyway, I didn’t really know what to expect. At that point in his career, DMX was something of a novelty name to add to a bill. Our other acts that night were all pretty standard EARMILK fare, and our audience was probably just old enough

Subaru thinks you’re wrong. Also, any lug pattern can work. Chaos reigns.

I’d argue an e-sports player does about as much actual physical activity as a golfer or a professional baseball player lol

Yes, skis have improved from 1950 to today. Yes, basketball shoes today really do help you jump higher and run faster. Yes, it does help that track shoes have changed.

Okay, hear me out — I’m a gamer. My personal obsession is Hearts of Iron 4. I love Gran Turismo, and like many of you, I have loved it since the first version on Playstation. I think eSports are interesting, although they’re admittedly something I can’t truly follow, mostly because it’s just not interesting to me.

This seems like the car that fills a place for people who wanted the “big-whoosh” of the old WRX and Evo. There’s nothing wrong with these modern hot compacts, but the thing that made them fun is usually refined out.

Now I know what that Indian (Italian actor) guy felt like when he shed a single tear in that video from the 80s.

Maybe it was autopilot. Maybe it was just traveling at an insane speed. Either way, maybe it’s a good time to evaluate electric cars. Many of them are extremely fast — faster than many people can readily control.

Is this a Simpson’s reference?

You know my great-grandfather used to tell me an anecdote about America: We used to build things. We made stuff. We knew how to make money by actually creating things that people wanted — and selling those things.

I know this may sound strange, but he’s English, right? I thought the NHS would have provided for his care? Can’t he just fly home to England and get cancer and leg treatment?

Well, I was told that this was going to be great for American businesses. This just... I cannot believe Trump would lie to us like this. It just doesn’t make sense. Why would Honest Donald do something so thoughtless and short-sighted?

Someone is going to buy this, get it into running condition, and then try to sell it on Bring a Trailer for like $50,000 as a “museum” quality Vega.

This is... hilariously true for me. I really do enjoy the mechanical, stupid, small stuff. I love gardening. I love woodworking. I love wrenching. Those items are cathartic and genuine. Code, after almost two decades, is cold and detached.

I didn’t know that “vegetarian feed” was a thing. I just had a global function that would take the word “vegetarian” on any packaging, and automatically tag it as vegetarian. I understand the concept of vegetarian feed, but I wasn’t aware it was being printed on any packaging. (It’s an extremely limited set of

Funny you should ask: I couldn’t exclude “vegetarian bacon” or any derivative like “veggie bacon” because that’s a... thing. When people are searching for tempeh, seitan, or other meatless products, they often seat for “vegetarian + [insert meat name here]” because that’s how these products are marketed.

As someone who programs AI systems, I do find this funny. We’re getting extremely good with image processing, and it’s actually amazing how far we have come in the past five years. (I admittedly don’t work in image processing, but I know people who do, so I’ll say they’re very smart people and just leave it at that.)
