That restaurant is gloriously tacky! I want to go to there!.

Exactly.  When I wait in line at Costco, I’m maybe in line for 10 minutes maximum.  And then I can fill up the car in less than a minute.

Yes in the grand scheme of things it is. Plus with our housing problems here, rent isn’t really a good indicator of low income. $1500/month for a place is cheap for LA county. 

I’m so sick of the “my time is worth X” argument always thrown out. That would make sense if people were paid hourly for every second of every hour worked in a perfectly flexible manner but that’s literally not possible so it’s a stupid argument.

Well the tax credit is down for Tesla at the end of of the year. As far as no gas tax, that is just another in the long line of reasons to change to an ezpass type usage toll. Especially for heavy vehicles like 18 wheelers that do a huge amount of water and tare on roads

GUUUUUUH I’m so tired of answering this question. The sources are not hard to find if you look.

LOL, okay, cam down.

St. George Terroir is a favorite of mine. 

Unlike vodka, different gins taste SERIOUSLY different. Gin can be so highly flavoured that some bartenders consider certain gin brands “gin liqueurs” rather than true gins, because they’ve just got that much flavour. Even a piker should be able to tell a Hendrick’s from, say, a Beefeater, even in a G&T.

I would have thought gin is by the easiest liquor to differentiate brands, seeing as they are all a clean slate of grain alcohol with different (by brand) botanicals added. 

Absolutely! Gin in particular is a very unique liquor in that recipes vary widely and are closely guarded secrets, unlike say, bourbon, which by law is distillate aged in oak, which leaves less room and experimentation. When it comes to gin, I know my brand like my wife’s perfume!

Definitely. There’s a whole different way to filter alcohols period that alone change the taste. Not to mention there’s different recipes. 

You bet. Tanqueray: Straight up pine needles. Hendrick’s: Mellow and rose watery. Anchor Old Tom: Sweet and soft. Magellan: The iris makes it perfect for an aviation. Etc.

Very much. Moreso than any other liquor for me.

Nail. Head. Exactly so. Thanks for sayin’ it.

I see all things.

The numbers I’m looking at say the BMW is 60 lbs heavier, and I can tell you from riding them that they feel 100 pounds different.

I fucking love that bike. Just not for dirt.

I love riding off road, I’m just not excited to do it on anything bigger than the Africa Twin. Read the whole article, and then we’ll talk.

Spent a week on a KTM 1190 in the Rockies, and I never got used to the bike. I was actually relieved when the week was over and I didn’t completely destroy an expensive bike which didn’t belong to me. That said, I did have loads of fun, but I have to say I am with you. I simply don’t understand why the bike had to be…
