Damn right on this. I've only been reading consistently for about 4 years and the average price has gone up twice. By $1 each time. It has left me looking more for quality than quantity. Trying to pare down to one or two books from Marvel & DC and the rest from Indies.

I am fortunate enough to live near a great shop that has a staff who is well versed on comics and pulls double duty as a classic video game hub. There are even dozens of arcade games that can be played. I am an avid comic reader but my knowledge pails in comparison and these guys make it simple and keep me coming back.

Wow. From what type of bank?

If you can find a vehicle with an asking price that is 90-95% of its value, you can sometimes get a loan for the full purchase price.

Blue food dye. e.g. in a blue raspberry candy will turn poo bright green. It’s fascinating.

I feel like I'm getting old when I see a trunk full of audio/video stuff and immediately go "where am I going to put my golf clubs/groceries/other crap you transport in a trunk."

I wonder if 27mpg is valid for a 4x4? Or they just take that “best” number from a regular cab short bed 2wd and tout it as the number across the 4cyl range.

I get about 13.5 in my Grand Cherokee. Granted that's mostly city. But damn.

I have tried to sell a car three times in my life, and only successfully once. I had a ‘94 4Runner that was getting on in mileage, maybe near 200K, and put it on an eBay auction with a starting bid of $1,800. I was hoping to get $2,500-$3,000 for it, either way a great price at the time. I had people email me asking…

Do eeeeeeet.

This times ten.

Holy crap. It's FF1 come to life. Pop the hood. POP THE HOOD!!!!

Am I the only person that has ever had to convince people that Subaru is not an Australian car company? A car called the Outback and once upon a time use of Paul Hogan in commercials does not an Australian car company make.

In it's defense, the old Monte Carlo's were rather cool. But this shitbox here needs to be killed with fire.

We actually have a Forte wagon. The handling is better than I expected it to be. Minimal roll and very direct steering. But you really have to flog the motor to get anything out of it. And we have the larger displacement 2.4 (I think it's 2.4).

I never tried to justify anything. You have elected to be butthurt and see only what you want to see. I come to this site to discuss things, because other people probably know plenty of things I don’t. If you have something constructive to contribute to the dialogue, I would love to hear it. But go somewhere else if…

I conceded that the allies we doing gruesome things. Why are your panties in a wad?

Neutral: Definitely possible.

Chilling stuff. I just finished reading James Bradley’s Flyboys, and I could not believe how outright horrifying the pacific theater of WWII was. The Japanese were evil for no greater purpose than to be evil. They knew they couldn’t win the war long before the A bombs. The Imperial Army would gladly let its civilians…

2) Piss when it's convenient, not when you have to.
