It’s almost as if no one ever had a conversation prior to walking down the aisle about expectations. Couples, if they have gotten so far as to be considering marriage, should be able to be candid about each other’s domestic strengths, the relative time demands of each other’s occupations, the likelihood that there…

France surrenders.

There’s simply a ceiling on alternative vehicle use. I lived in huge biking cities - NYC, Phila, Portland, Seattle - everyone who is going to commute by bike already is. In Phila and NYC, you have weather, Seattle weather and hills, Portland, weather, hills, and other problems. Most offices don’t come with shower…

I forgot about these. I’m going to keep on forgetting about these.

That the “Rockford slide” is not only easy, but should absolutely be done in a high school parking lot.

Even though I don’t completely disagree with you, historical context matters. We can’t pretend that those laws weren’t normal, just as it was normal for people to get married at far younger ages than they do, today. We can dislike historical practice, but we also have to contemplate the reality of the times and the…

Contrary to popular belief, 4WD/AWD will not protect a moron.

Contrarianism is not limited to old white guys. 

Anybody remember that Marvin the Martian cartoon where he’s waiting for his bomb to go off? “Where’s the kaboom? There’s supposed to be a kaboom!”

That’s a ten minute movie.

I really think that it was less about 80's fears of encroaching “orientalism” than it was an acknowledgement that globalism is inevitable. A distinguishing feature of science fiction throughout the 20th century was the embrace by so many writers of a kind of pan-nationalism - many, like Gibson, used the world economy…

It really depends. You’ll find plenty of English facility in the Nordic countries and in Germany, because it’s an easy lingua franca (see what I did there?). Depending on where you are in Europe, that is, the remoteness of the town you visit, you’ll be able to find someone functional in most retail/food places. Asia…

Marriages end and people change. We have no way of knowing what precipitated the marriage breakup, since he left before his first rehab stint.

Left lane campers. Fuck those slow-moving, arrogant motherfuckers.

His ex had her own problems. That said, people change. What they want in life can change. I’d never want to be bound by some declaration I made about children before I ever had enough life experience and exposure to make a truly informed choice. If someone who wants a family with children is in a relationship with…

This is a good buy. This is a good, solid kid car. You would not feel bad giving this to your daughter entering her freshman year at “It Snows Here” University.

Get either patience or a Soul. The Soul is probably the most forgiving of unrealistic assessments of necessary capacity. You will not believe the amount of crap that a new kid generates - diapers, diaper bag, snacks, formula, a stroller, car-seat, extra clothes, toys...that’s just scratching the surface, so if you…

I don’t like it, but it’s a NP due to market forces. 

Any BMW old enough to drink is too old to drive.

Imagine his surprise when he finds out that lesbians do not buy Subarus exclusively. I’d bet the house that he believes that shit and that he’s on some weird crusade.
