Ehhh. As hard as we try, we'll never ever ever top PEPPERMINT ROLLLLLLL.

You say that the car is so 80s, when it's actually very 70s. The Jalpa is actually a refreshed Silhouette, which Lambo premiered in '76 and sold until '79. Aesthetically speaking, it's the exact same body with engine intake scoops (the Silhouette lacked them), bigger fender flares, and different tail lights.

Textbook rugby tackles FTW. All tackling in football should be like this.

WHY CAN'T I RECOMMEND THIS MORE THAN ONCE?!

8 already takes SO MUCH CRAP for not being 7, and now you've gotta dump on it, too?

This is precisely how I'd spec mine. Maybe a different colour.

DO THE LAWS OF PHYSICS CEASE TO EXIST ON YOUR STOVE?!?!?!

I AM DIAPHINA!

Were you reading SCC at the time when Project Miata got stolen? I was so sad about that.

I realize that this is going to out me as a Jem fan (it was serialized action and drama for kids in the 80s, okay?!), but even in 1986, I recognized this for the abomination that it was.

Moreover, it's in contention for the longest continually-used nameplate in the entire car world. The name was first used by Toyota in '55.

Actually, what this video proved for me is what many people have been saying for years: there's really nothing country about her singing. Her music is only "country" because she throws a banjo or a fiddle in with the regular mix. Swift isn't a country artist, she's a pop artist. At least Kenney Chesney still sounds…

SNL Nerds unite!

"Eleventy-billion...that's not even a number."

Basically, this:

Maybe it's just the angle of this photo, but...I'm just...eh...

I learned to drive in a four-cylinder XT with the pistol grip stickshift. Even the flat-four had more torque than the car needed (it was uber-light), so I learned clutch-finesse right from the start. As a novice, you had two choices in first gear: stall it (and get whiplash), or do a FWD burnout. I spent several…

"It's fun telling people you go to McDonald's; they always give that look like, 'Oh, I didn't know I was better than you!' No admits to going to McDonald's! They sell six billion hamburgers a day, there's only three hundred million people in this country. I'm not a calculus teacher, but I think everyone's lying!"

So, now every marketing company is stealing Improv Everywhere's Best Gig Ever? Not that giving a small town performer a great experience is a bad thing...but it's a stunt they pulled ten years ago, and with their own pocket money, not marketing dollars. Credit where credit is due.

The '02 has an obnoxious clutch shudder in 1st and 2nd that comes and goes at random. It's cursed all of us '02 owners, and it's nigh inexplicable.
