Next there’s the AWD traction... also providing a much earlier exit out of any corner.

It’s only there to be the quickest luxury sedan around

Is it worth the 6 figure price tag? Never thought I’d say this but when you can get more power and performance from Dodge or Chevy, something’s up.

What point will it have depreciated sufficiently to be attainable, but not be a maintenance nightmare?

AWD =“Not a true M Car”

BMW says that for $60k, I can get a 540 w/AWD and 335hp that does 0-60 in 4.7.  With the M5, what am I getting for the extra $40K?

(Full disclosure, I say that for $60k, BMW can go pound sand, but I’m still curious.)

So it was Subaru’s marketing department is the one that decided to do a GR Sport?

Toyota had a lot it could have done here.

Presumably, you’re addressing the would-be second owners, bringing us one step closer to the apocalypse.

If you didn’t like AC3, that’s because it was bad; don’t blame the rest of the pre-Origins games. But note that they will play much more like AC3 and the earlier games than they will like Origins — Origins was a big departure.

There are so many things I could add to this chart... Tower defense, crafting, ranged weapons, grapple, pick pocketing, customizable or changeable outfits, Desmond, zip lines, follower missions, companion mobile app, multiple protagonists, bombs, sleep darts....

Plus, at least these castle guys bothered to draw new pictures.

The Fallout Boy art style is so distinct, and it’s a really odd choice for West World. I can’t think of any reason to explain why West World looks like it does other than a copy/paste from Fallout.

...because Subarus go where the bears are.

That header image — is that... is that SNARF?!?!?

lol my sister makes like 200K in the FBI. you’re doing that well?

OY. I’ll try again so you can keep up.

Me smart. Many schools. Me rich.
Plumber smart. No school. Plumber richer.

There’s also an implication the correlation between post-secondary education, intelligence, and financial success, but I’m not optimistic about the odds of it landing, here. I’ll cut my losses and just leave…

Perhaps you missed the point of the anecdote. I do just fine: I guarantee the FBI would be a pay cut.

Two important points:
1. 80K for one individual is still well above the median household income in the U.S.
2. I suspect in this case, the plumber owns/runs his own business.

I don’t think that question is out of line on a first date, but his response certainly was. Good thing your alarm bells went off.
