I noticed something while playing Metal Gear Solid V
Venom Snake’s one of us. One of his prosthetic hands has Gulf Livery.
The Open Internet
I feel like the main pages of all the Kinja blogs have some terrifying elements. I like Jezebel, like I do Jalopnik, but I’m thankful for the sub blogs/blogs that’ve become their own/independent for their sanity (Groupthink and some others are like Oppo/CL). A defense of Mary Kay Letourneau appeared from a bunch of…

Insane responses to the French "Charlie Hebdo" attack
I'm more liberal than a fair number of you but the people having "trouble finding sympathy for the victims because the cartoons making fun of Mohammed were racist" make me sick.
I'm a history teacher but people and times puzzle me.
I have a student who just got an iPad for Christmas. He was deeply frustrated and upset to hear that it did not have the same operating system as his Windows laptop (and no pen). He didn't know that Apple made a different operating system and had never heard of the Macintosh, though he had heard of the iPhone. Not…
After Thanksgiving Advice: 1998 Legacy L Wagon (Manual)
I always liked their car, but sometimes enough is enough. Any suggestions on how to help my Aunt talk my Uncle into not spending $2200 for suspension and wheel bearing work on their 1998 Legacy Wagon that they already spent another $2000 tuning up (and getting shocks, struts, and body work)?
Fun with helicopter parents
I catch a student cheating on an essay. He vehemently denies it. I wait some time before the mid term grading period and really do my research. I have every single word of his essay documented on a textbook website online. His mother calls to complain and defend her son. Why? Another teacher helped him fix his grammar…

Sometimes I just love slow chimes.
2012 Chevy Sonic Turbo Coolant Leak/Vibrations
Sharing this over from GT because a poster there needs help. She mentioned something about getting a letter from Chevy about this too so I'm curious if she was charged for what was basically a recall situation.
Jalop Music Videos - Les Sins "Bother"
This took me right back to those daydreaming at the used car dealership days.
"Driven" Images - For My Classroom/Hallway Wall Display
Some of you may know, some of you may not know, but I am a high school history teacher. Every year the school has a word that is our theme for the year. Normally I make some small personal effort to do a bulletin board or put some signs up. This year the word is "Driven." Like all of you that follow Jalopnik and/or…
