Yes, I had this happen to me at a Nissan dealership. They were going to evaluate my car while I test drove a new car. When negotiations broke down, suddenly they couldn’t “find” my keys. They kept trying refocus my attention on the new car. When I kept demanding my keys back, the salesman got pissed and started…

As someone who doesn’t like overzealous policing or entitled rich people, I found the cognitive dissonance I experienced while reading this to be uncomfortable.

In my hometown there was also a cop who was known as the traffic nazi, people said he would write his own mother a ticket for going 26 in a 25mph zone. That level of overzealous policing is just not necessary.

The residents are probably right about this actually. Nice towns, with good police departments, don’t have their officers going around writing numerous tickets (esp to locals!). I live in one now, commuting distance to nyc, and that’s definitely the case. Rookies aren’t usually a thing either, every single dept near…

In my rich suburban hometown the local PD has long been referred to as “The Gestapo”. And you can bet your sweet ass you WILL get pulled over and ticketed for speeding or flipping an illegal U-turn whether you are a maid or Leon Gorhman. I got pulled over for speeding on my *bicycle* in high school. But as I didn’t…

Suspect that in most cities and towns if the police consistently enforced the letter of the law for traffic offenses most folks would be astounded and pissed.

Perhaps before they're hung from the gallows they can tell everyone they buried a server full of the stolen media in one piece. 

Kendrick had Kodak Black all over his last album, I mean, I don’t support Dre’s involvement but can people really pretend to be surprised?  He’s the greatest rapper alive not the greatest person alive.

Your type are just as insufferable as them.

When you become the butt of your own joke.

“He doesn’t need US to play the games he wants to play.”

Let’s say he did everything he’s accused of. He emotionally abused someone and raped someone else. These are bad things! But are they so bad the person has to be thrown away forever with no chance of rehabilitation?

I don’t know. The press about it at the time was legit ARMIE HAMMER IS A CANNIBAL. I had to actually look to find that they were just talking about some sex talk, and the way all the articles were written were definitely done in a way to obfuscate that it was just talk and not action. Combine that with vague talk of…

I work in finance, and our firm sells companies to PE groups all the time. A PE-backed company is actually less likely to go under than a privately-owned one, because if it’s struggling then the investors can put more money in to support it (and have more resources for troubleshooting). Granted some of these groups…

Look at it this way. If you are being pandered to in Corporate America, even if only for a month, that means you’ve been mostly accepted.

Id rather live in a ninety minute drive town than any city. I've done my city girl stint thirty years ago, and I don't want to go back.

For fuck’s sake, proofread your headline.

Just a reminder that Ford did this with both the second and third generation GT, and Porsche does it with almost every new model. This is a pretty standard tactic to control prices and generate exclusivity. It’s shitty, sure, but it’s not exclusive to Tesla.

I feel like there are a lot of people who see Yang and project on him all their feelings and political beliefs.

Very big stretch between “dancer in a cult is in a Toyota ad” to “Toyota may have gotten involved with a cult.”
