I liked it.

Remember when Jalopnik said nobody wants to hear old millionaires talk about cars?

I think I might be stuck with a sort of Amero-centric view of comedy, as are many Americans, but I think that's changing, the more we find out about Jimmy Carr, Dylan Moran, Bill Bailey, etc.

Context, son.

Agreed. I could listen to Louis CK talk about anything. I know he says he used to work on cars, but I remember hearing him talking about how he drives an Infinity, which gave me a bit of a douchechill. A re-badged Nissan? Really? Say it ain't so!

I agree with popular not equaling "good", and your examples are sound, but Jerry Seinfeld is the best observational comedian alive. You see, "premise" is a comedy term. I would assume that when one uses that term in the context of talking about a stand-up comedian, it would be talking about the basis for one of his

No. You are not alone. Cars are cool and comedians are funny. Hardigree is just sipping on some Mountain Jealousy Blast flavored Haterade. Kelly Ripa and Marv Albert aren't comedians, and not every comic is an old and gray haired millionaire (although, one of Jalopnik's favorite people is, although JC isn't a comic.).

"if you no space to plant the bottle" missing a verb here? #corrections

What I did: Made fun of the kind of entry that usually ends up winning COTD. Even going so far as to say "I keed" at the end.

Well, we all know which group you fall into with that eloquent post of yours here. Way to be the exact thing that you're claiming to criticize.

@Mr.CardHolder and Mr.Doe Gee, if only there were a word to describe a person that lumps all members of a certain group together and makes stereotypes about them......In case you're missing the sarcasm, your post makes you a hypocrite. Nice try in attempting to showcase how progressive and liberal you are, but you're

Let's see...wall of text? Check. Typo/grammatical errors? Check. Fictitious anecdote? Check. Unfunny and barely on topic? Check and check! I would like to congratulate you in advance for your COTD win! /I keed

I don't know. The former is usually a lie, and the latter sounds hilarious.

No. No I don't.

Cooking with wine or any other alcohol isn't purely about the flavors of the booze, it's also (and usually more importantly) about the chemical reaction with the food, breaking down connective tissue in meats, reacting with cellulose in vegetables.... There's no reason you can't use a "wine you wouldn't drink" to cook

Have you had any experience with that 5 year coolant? I had a 2001 Cavalier, and I owned it from 2004 to 2010, never changing the factory coolant with no problems. I'm guessing my case isn't the norm, but it seems pretty crazy that it was even possible. I never even changed the plugs. I was a negligent asshole to that

People have this notion that they can "multi-task". It's a myth. Your brain can only focus 100% on one thing at a time. If you try to focus on two things, it's impossible to focus 100% on both. Do you really want to be paying only 50% attention to what you're doing with a speeding missile comprised of tons of metal

I live in a city, and I'm an impatient and clumsy person. The AT is not a deal breaker for me, as I would probably demolish a clutch on a manual trans just parallel parking the thing in Chicago's shitty parking spots. NP.
