As a driver of a 2012 Eos I could not upvote you harder.

Interesting. I don’t think I’ve ever had a complete power failure in that car, but I’ve certainly powered the windows all the way up and all the way down on several occasions. You’d think the VW dealership would have mentioned that if it was the issue...

Again, they don’t go halfway down, they go ALMOST all the way down with just a tiny sliver of glass (1/4" or less) showing above the sill. That’s not stopping any kid.

That would make sense except for the fact that only /4" of glass is exposed. That’s not going to stop a kid from climbing out or make any difference in paying a toll.

Ok, I don’t do ANY of my own work - I even go to the local Jiffy Lube for oil changes because I simply don’t have the time or inclination. I’m also a huge convertible fan and rarely drive anything else. And even I’M voting NP on this! $500 for a running manual vehicle? Buy it, slap some muffler tape over the exhaust…

2014 VW Eos: why do all the power windows stop going down with about 1/4" of glass showing above the sills? All four windows are auto down and there’s one big window button that triggers all four at once. BUT, once pressed the windows stop with a tiny sliver of glass showing. Another press drops them completely. This…

I’ve seen a few of the new Netflix episodes and I’ve somewhat enjoyed them, but I’m not sure the chemistry is the same. There’s also the whole bit about them traipsing around helping out (likely) Trump voters which inspires blinding rage, but I’m still bitter about the election and digging myself out of the “fuck them…

Let me tell you about how I developed my enmity for NY State Troopers.

Yeah, that’s my excuse. I also want a convertible Lotus; make it a drop top and it’s NP all day.

This is why the baby boomers are going to spend their last pennies on elder care and die alone, destitute and bitter. They’ve made it brutally clear to anyone under 20 that they are worthless and that feeling will be reciprocated.

This. Mandatory insurance on both guns and ammo would solve 90% of the problem. Want an arsenal? Sure hope you can afford to insure it. Are you a raving gun nut/doomsday prepper? Good luck finding affordablei nsurance. Want massive ammo stockpiles? Enjoy the 200% tax on all bullets after the first 10. That doesn’t…

I felt the book was a failure of theme over concept. The author wanted to write a romance but added an SF concept that completely overwhelmed the theme. The challenge of depicting a romance where a middle-aged man explains his relationship to his wife while she’s five is difficult enough, but beyond that the time…

Like most comedy sketch shows it had a tendency to be uneven. That said, there were some truly brilliant moments here or there and a lot of stuff that made me laugh. The 12 Angry Men episode was definitely the best one, however. I watched the whole damned thing with my jaw dropped unless I was laughing.

An ‘88? I would have KILLED to be able to have taken my test in an ‘88! I ended up with a 1979 Grand Marquis that was not only an ugly, shitty, rusting and wobbly brick but also one that - get this - had a driver’s side door that didn’t open. I literally filled in my paperwork and RAN back to the car to get in on the…

That’s just unacknowledged lust, Paul Giamatti. You know you’d be all over her if she made the first move!

Yeah, look at our cutting edge advancements in prosthetics! We got so good at those because so many of our soldiers kept getting limbs blown off. Seems all you need to develop cool new medical tech is a constant stream of mutilated kids destroyed by the meat grinder of constant, unending war! USA, USA, USA!

Citation needed. This bullshit argument keeps coming up from conservatives but I’ve never seen any facts accompanying it. I’ve also never heard anything at all even close to this from any Canadians. Just more lies from the right, I guess.

This. I have older relatives that never saw my daughter until we we’re able to bring her up to Canada when she was 3 because they allhad health conditions that would have made ANY medical treatment ment an instant bankruptcy. These are people who are healthy, active and relatively well-to-do but their minor heart…

Does it hold four people comfortably? Get 38mpg in mixed driving? Come with a 10yr/100k warranty?

First, let me make it completely clear that I agree completely this poor bastard fled because he was terrified - quite rightly, as it turned out. Either the people rear-ending him or the trigger-happy cops were a clear and credibly threat to his life and he was absolutely justified in trying to flee. As a POC he could…
