Whether or not Disney “deserved” Reedy Creek when the initial development started isn’t the question. The question is whether Disney’s initial misstep in not fighting the “Don’t say Gay” law is worth significantly penalizing taxpayers who will be forced to shoulder a burden they never incurred. By your reasoning,…

I’ve employed a lot of process servers in my day. It’s not intimidation, but exasperation or frustration that causes them to have to serve people in this manner. If Wilde continually rebuffed efforts to serve her, the best route for any server would be to show up at a time and place where she was sure to be.

The Sterling. An absolute, unquestionable piece of shit. 

I must admit, my Mazda experiences have all been positive. I could gripe about the placement of the climate controls on the CX-9, but not the function of the car, overall. Same with the CX-5 and even, way back, the Protege. I’ve had 3- and 6- loaners, dig’em. Love the Mx-5. In fact my personal first CX-9 purchase was…

That is good.

The SEC can only do what it is empowered to do by law and resource. There hasn’t been institutional will within Congress or the executive branch to make the SEC aggressive regulators.

I get that people loathe Musk. Of course, gizmodo yesterday called the guy “not very bright”, which is absurd on its face. The guy is very, very far from stupid, which is why he won’t kick automotive journalists off Twitter.

I never liked these. I’m not gonna start now. Whoever buys this is in for a cascade of age-related problems.

Unless LR quietly changed absolutely everything about how it builds cars for this model year, the data set on LR should still be reliable. If you’re gonna buy this thing, buy two.

If only someone could have predicted this...

The Talbot was and is a POS and no hp increase can help it. 

Sold! I love these things. The flaws aren’t deal-breakers - I’d install an aftermarket backup cam when considering the stereo, though. This car isn’t huge compared to an SUV, but the seating position doesn’t do a lot to ease the effort of parallel parking. 

Nope. Unless you count a lifelong dedication to paying bills on time and a (finally) bulletproof credit score.

In my 20's, an enterprising student at my alma mater stole the personal information of 125 alumni when said student was supposed to be archiving graduated student files. I found out when I received a hearing notice for an accident “I” got in while driving a rental van near the Philadelphia zoo.

She has time and money and the help of professionals. An unbelievably hot girl working (even with help) on a Bronco of this vintage in order to drive it regularly? That would have stopped my 25 year old heart. At this age, I’m just happy to see a woman her age learning how to fix shit. Wrenching really is fun once you…

One of the more troubling things about internet culture is the rise of fan groups who superimpose their own fantasies onto (famous) people’s lives.

It’s really a strategy to mobilize and retain the bigotry vote. If the majority of Americans voted according to ideological polling, none of this shit would be happening. This is what voter apathy get us: the tyranny of the minority.

We really do infantilize the older generations in the US.

1988 Subaru GL. 0-60 in 72 seconds.

The carwash in my neighborhood partners with the local Tesla dealer to wash and detail the new cars. According to the dudes, a blind man would know a Tesla from “the rattle”.
