Who the hell is Phil Robertson?

I had much the same experience with my 986. People often also had no idea at all what it was, which shocked me, since in my eyes they're pretty common. But it was often mistaken for a Ferrari or some other much more exotic car. I always had to resist the urge to over-explain... "You can get these cheap and I do all…

They knock this one out of the park as well

Other than the fact that I just don't like it? I mean, there's no real reason for me to hate green peppers either, but that ain't gonna stop me.

Video editor here... unfortunately that's a pretty common job description these days. I've hated the term since the first time I heard it.

Thanks! She's the best. Here's a great one from her puppyhood (and without the crazy third eye others have noticed!)

It's not a muzzle, though often mistaken for one; see another comment I made below. It's a gentle leader, which just helps direct their heads and keep them from pulling when on a walk. It has no effect on whether or not she can open her mouth.

Heh, she gets that a lot. People often think it's a muzzle. But yeah, Jooniflan is right... it's just to prevent pulling (and doesn't actually hold her mouth shut). Hers is a brand called Gentle Leader and I've used them since she was a pup... she puts her nose right into the loop whenever it's time for a walk. It…

Oh, totally. But mine's happy with regular frisbee ("happy" with regards to frisbee is understating it... one game of frisbee seems to bring her more joy than I've felt my entire life) and a couple long walks a day. But yes I do have a yard and the time to play with her, which I'm not sure Drew does. Still they are…

"But Drew, I will help you keep all the children in one place! And rewire the house if necessary!"

Maybe go back and take a more objective look at this thread later... are you sure Raysism's joke is more objectionable than your casual misogyny and somewhat pathetic attempts at talking yourself up to strangers on the internet?

There are still many, many cars that don't have oil change indicators (though I'm sure it's getting more and more rare in new cars not to have one). What pretty much all modern (like, 1960s-on) cars have at a minimum is a low oil pressure warning light. The problem is people often seem to confuse the two and think…

I guess I don't see where I did that in my original post. I spend a lot of time on a motorcycle so I'm well aware of the danger bad car drivers present, and believe me, they're plentiful in Portland too. It was just that this guy's attitude seemed representative to me of a lot (not all of course) of Portland…

So you disagree that if someone causes damage to another person's property —through their own gross disregard for their own safety or that of others — they should be responsible for the cost to repair it?

Whoa, where did I say anything about a car driver leaving the scene of an accident, let alone one in which a pedestrian was killed, or compare anything like that to my experience? I'm simply using a personal anecdote as an example of poor behavior by Portland cyclists. To me it seems representative of a majority…

Have you ever been to Portland? I support bicycling in general but the bike culture here is awful. I had a guy — in full Tour de Portland gear, of course — plow into my (stopped) car a few weeks back after he took a blind corner at high speed onto the wrong side of the road. He flipped up onto the hood and…

I said much the same thing in another comment before seeing yours. Cheers!

This is beside the point, but as a public service announcement: anyone can have a BMW. Just learn how to do your own work and then buy used. German cars depreciate like crazy and a 10 year old bimmer will be just as fun to drive as a new one, if not more so. You can drive something awesome and have fun working on…

Huh. I would think that being a baseball fan would actually be far more likely to make a person like Hawk less. Until today this had held true for 100% of the baseball fans I'd encountered in my entire life. So long, perfect record of interacting with rational fans — HE GONE!!!

Wait, there are actually people who like this guy? Seriously?!?
