Taiwan. Keeping It Klassy Since Never. (TM)

I once had a package marked as “delivered” for about a week during which I was freaking out and raising hell with every postal employee I could reach by phone. Eventually I physically tracked down my carrier, who spent 10 minutes describing how he recalled delivering it to the wrong address and going “Aw, shucks ...…

What people are trying to tell you is numbers given as figures are easier to read, yes, but not easier to understand as quantities. That’s why we take spreadsheets and make graphs out of them. When you’re doing a timed task like a standardized test or travel to an appointment - timed tasks being the gift of all…

If you’re willing to stretch your budget a little, look into Mondaine. You can find offerings on Amazon at a little above the $100 mark. Very timeless and handsome design, and you can look like a Swiss train station. Also, Lexon’s Nuno and Moon watches are pretty minimalist, and you can probably find them on eBay…

That Vanquish is going to be a handful. And Volante ... better just keep her away from all upright metal poles.

You shouldn’t use the ends of your chopsticks. You end up holding greasy chopsticks and the other person eats germs from your hands. There are times when people do that, but it’s not something to be recommended as proper etiquette. Sort of like there are times when it’s socially acceptable to stir your coffee with…

No, you shouldn’t use the ends of your chopsticks. You end up holding greasy chopsticks and the other person eats germs from your hands. There are times when people do that, but it’s not something to be recommended as proper etiquette. Just ask for another pair of communal chopsticks.

... and that place made its own flag wrong.

I have used these. They’re inexpensive. You get a U.S. address, all your mail gets digitized, and they toss all your junk mail too. They can forward your mail anywhere in the world, which allows you to buy necessities from sellers that won’t ship overseas. They’ll also deposit checks and receive faxes for you. The…

Really? The reason I skipped out of the architecture department in college was because every instructor was a wanna-be Roark. That was, in fact, nearly the entire reason. They were fond of telling us to go to business school if we weren’t up to suffer nobly to elevate Man into a higher plane. You just wanted to grab…

I will vouch for this. Please share to Lifehacker.

Old Chinese joke: Why do Chinese people smoke so many cigarettes? Because unlike the air, cigarette smoke is filtered.

Mine’s steering wheel chafed my hands, and the seats chafed other parts. I can only conclude this is a deliberate design feature I didn’t appreciate, because how do you make something so shitty these days? I also find it hard to describe the way it rode ... kind of like ...

The reason this one only has 306 miles is probably because it bites ungulates.

After dying your clothes with motor oil, this is now the second manliest thing ever done.

Hold it long enough and you won’t have to choose.

Is there any reason why I can’t give my ticket to a corporation in the Cayman Islands and pay no taxes at all? My understanding is you don’t have to be a citizen, resident, or natural person to play Powerball, so it sounds like you could just set up a foreign entity in a tax-free jurisdiction. Then you’d just pay no…
