If Dumb and Angry has job that lets him live on his own and support himself, who cares if he went to college. I have a master’s and can barely afford to live on my own.

I don’t think it’s the gf’s friends’ fault 100% for thinking that way, though. Late Gen X/Millennial were kind of brainwashed into thinking that…

I’ve a solid engineering degree and a good paying job.

That’s asinine to believe. The engine has been updates several times over, even if it doesn’t look as impressive as some of the PS4 exclusives.

“Also, we’re committed to delivering Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Windows 10.” That’s all Phil Spencer had to say, but I guess the gun aimed directly at his foot isn’t out of bullets yet.

Microsoft doesn’t care if you buy an Xbox and play there or buy it on PC (running Win10). That’s kind of where they’re going with iterative hardware. Don’t want to deal with a PC? Okay, here’s a family of “consoles” that play the games. Want to play on PC? Great, we’ll sell you just the software.

I work in advertising for a major auto maker....

It is a volume knob.

I’m embarrassed for this guy. Like painfully embarrassed for him.

But 75 isnt a number, it’s a place. Just like fallout new Vegas. I get the joke, it just isnt funny.

I honestly thought those were plastic guards to be removed when the vehicle is given to its new owner.

I’m not calling you stupid, but stupid is still stupid even if stupider exists.

But a good way to get back on your feet is to miss two car payments.

Fuck you Sarah, and your boss too.

I think there’s a value to their guaranteed price for a trade in though. When I bought my current car, I worked through the numbers to come up with a purchase price then began negotiations on my trade in. They came to a firm value of about $8k and claimed they absolutely couldn’t go any higher. Carmax had offered me…

Carmax buys from big auction houses just like everyone else. They really don’t have access to a magical higher tier of used cars than any other dealer. Up here in the Northeast, I’ve driven a few Carmax vehicles (mostly Explorers, larger SUV’s) and they all seemed clean on initial inspection, but a harder look…

No, but the drop was far and abrupt enough that one moment I'm on the toilet, and the next minute, I was above the toilet, and then I landed on it again. It's a truly serendipitous moment to exclaim "Oh shit!" when on the toilet.

Business jet mfrs compete within the same size categories, so being able to say "Our midsize seats 8 vs theirs that only seats 7" has some marketing value. Also, a dedicated lav means extra weight and complexity (plumbing and water/chemical tank)

I was going to take this toilet's virginity with a fury and savagery that was an abomination to its delicate craftsmanship and quality.

Speaking as an aerospace engineer, the first thought that comes to mind:

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!
