That is a gorgeous boat. Definitely odd for it to have a centerboard. Most of S&S’s similar offerings are fixed keel - even among the yawls of similar size (some of which were based off the old America’s Cup boats). Having a centerboard or lifting keel would really help getting into all sorts of places, with something…

What 50' sailboat has a centerboard? I’ve been around boats all my life, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a mono-hull sailboat over 30' without a fixed keel. Was it a catamaran?

Regarding the Fiero - I was at the dinner table when an engineering exec for GM told my dad that the hot model outperforming the Corvette was the primary reason they killed it, so...Unless their upper management was prone to wild flights of fancy, I’ll take that over GM refusing to re-engineer a simple firewall...

At parties where I’m allowed to have my own opinion on things, and express it briefly? Absolutely! More fun than your cranky ass is...

No it doesn’t. The shoddy build quality does that. The union jack details that even Mini owners overlook 99% of the time, even when looking right at them, are just pointlessly shoving pseudo-branding in everyone’s faces. Think about how tacky it looks when you see someone driving around with american flags all over…

The taillights aren’t. They’re standard kit on the current gen, and end up having your right turn signal lighting up an error pointing left, and vice versa...

The back end looks nice. They need to go back to the drawing board for the rest of it.

They always reek of a designer saying, “Oh...I mean it was just a sketch. Oh you’re actually making it? Uh...an interior? Yeah uh...Can you give me like fifteen minutes? ohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuck....”

Installed NOS, but never used. Bullshit. Pull the other one.

I don’t disagree on principle, but for this car, this old, with this many miles, this is something like 6 times the bluebook value.

I looked at the post and said “What did you do to it, to make it worth that kinda money?”

This is the first time in my life I’m not entirely sure. I want something electric, but holy shit are the prices stupid. If I don’t go electric, I want something with a good AWD system, so unless the GR Corolla is genuinely available and not stupidly priced, probably another Subaru.

This video goes into great detail about just how many more ways he fucked up...

This video was a great watch, in processing just how badly he fucked up...

If you haven’t read up on his “proof” that 1 x 1 = 2 yet, you should. It makes this look sane, and grounded, by comparison.

This only works if you’ve got really good insulation

Stephen, for real here... You should read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It covers a lot of these things in a very light hearted way, which can change that anxiety into amazement.

Doesn’t even need to be towed. Any ship this large has its own engines.

Kindly provide a list of countries where the n-word isn’t understood as a hateful term. Cite sources. Go ahead, we’ll wait.

When I saw Netflix was bringing this series to a modern audience, I’ll admit I was pretty surprised. Granted, they have plenty of pervy anime (Food Wars, Is it wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon, etc.), but Bastard was pretty over the top back when it first came out - it was almost in that same level of overt fan…
