Someone’s been working out!!

When I was in high school back in 1992, a group of us went out and switched the signs. We traded Clinton for Bush and vice versa. The next morning my dad asked what I had done the night before. I told him. He laughed saying it was some clever teenage fun. It was talked about in that neighborhood as good natured fun…

I turned 35 last year, and realised I was as far from my birth as my birth was from the end of WWII.

and this is why i unload my 8ft trailer on the street and walk it up the drive way lol...

Alex Jones circa the early GWB era (ie the Waking Life era) was very different than he is now. He was still raging about conspiracy theories such as the New World Order etc, but he was from more of a libertarian, anti-corporatist, anti-statist perspective. He’s since morphed into a far-right authoritarian populist who…

Okay so this is what bugged me a little in the video, on more than one occasion he mentions coasting downhill. This is the exact opposite of what you need to do. Getting good fuel economy is all about minimising your average throttle opening for the duration of the journey. By coasting downhill that then means you…

It is the ads for the autonomous braking cars that get to me. They are like, “Whoa, I wasn’t paying any attention at all to my driving, but it’s ok because my car is smarter and more aware than I am”. There has to be a better way to sell this tech to people. 

I actually like that one. It’s when it’s stuck to the windshields, especially the rear, that it grinds my gears.

ayyyy, i’m from Utah! (and my car also has five badges)

I have a 1998 Toyota Camry “America Edition”. It has fake woodgrain (that has long since stopped looking like wood) and gold trim. Whoever thought this up would be the first against the wall in the revolution!

Then there’s the fourth generation Ford Taurus wagon, which has a nice, prominent “24V DOHC” badge on the left front fender. What?

Sorry. I have to disagree somewhat on the Taurus badge. That generation of Taurus came with one of two different engines, both 3.0l. The vulcan was an old pushrod good for about 155hp. The DOHC engine was good for almost 200hp. Where it kind of mattered was that with Ford’s arcane model designations I could purchase a…

I like the folks who put on their own badges in an effort to, embarrass themselves?

For the ones asking the story behind this, really inspirational:

Did not know this! Deadspin, give me a hawt article on this guy please!

I had to pause the video and take a moment when Newt fucking Gingrich accused Fox fucking News of liberal bias.

Please let this election end already. It just feels so weird rooting for Megyn Kelly for something.
