So it will be the first time that a Max Brooks book has been adapted in to a movie. 

Part of Spam’s problem is how it looks when you take it out of the can. That gelatinous goo isn’t all that appealing. Other than that it’s fine. Like you said, it’s better cooked than raw but it’s edible either way. 

Hey Bradley, I know old American iron isn’t Jalopnik’s forte so just a quick note. A 383 Chevy is a stroker small block not a big block. 

“American Simpleton Likes Shitbox, Is Idiot.”

I don’t think it was the horsepower, it was the number of cylinders that offended the type of buyer who would be interested in that nostalgia trip. 

A Dagwood. Too big, too messy, mostly fictional. 

When companies refer to employees as “team members” you can be sure that they are screwing them over. 

In the military, the Navy in particular, the Kool-Aid type stuff they serve is called “bug juice” and the flavors are only referred to by color since those flavors do not exist in nature. Red was my favorite.

The Subaru swap in the VW redeems it. The idea of driving that from Canada to the American Southwest without the swap gives me hives. The idea of being stuck behind it in the mountains isn’t any better. Whatever he chooses I really hope it’s something that can maintain its speed in the mountains and not something…

YouTube videos are also a great resource, but be sure to read the comments and the rating to see if the person in the video is an idiot. My Camaro benefits from being old enough that the Chilton’s for it is fairly comprehensive but I still have the assembly manual, the Service Manual plus a couple of restoration…

I was really bummed the last time I went to KFC and they said they didn’t have wedges anymore. I thought they were great and of my favorite fast food potato products. 

I watched one of those videos where experts critique how their jobs are portrayed in movies. A chef was going through all of the movies that are supposed to show a restaurant kitchen and found most of them wanting but the kitchen in Ratatouille? That was, according to him, every chef’s dream. It was laid out perfectly…

Strangely enough a lot of what we think of as “fancy” food started out as poor people making due with what they had. That’s why coq au vin uses an old rooster and not a tender young chicken, for example. 

Yes, that’s great if that’s how you navigate to Gizmodo. If, however, you usually get here by clicking the links at the top of one of its sister sites, like io9 or Jalopnik, then you don’t have a choice.

Most of the time I’m going to Gizmodo it’s from one of your sister sites via the links at the top of the page. Those default to pushing the view that everyone hates. 

I remember the Kinja rollout. All of this because they couldn’t keep their big (stolen) iPhone 4 scoop at the top of the page.

Yes, I love having to click “Latest” every single time I go to your site.

The only other possibility that I could think of was a mechanical oil pressure gauge, the kind that has a tube that gets oil in it.  

You accidently replied to me instead of David. I too have a box of assorted O-rings that’s how I was able to try different sizes until I found the one that didn’t leave a big red pool on the garage floor. 

I think most of us with experience with mechanical speedometers could have guessed what was going on even if it’s a unique and thoroughly David Tracy failure, though I didn’t know it connected at the transfer case and not the transmission. When the O-ring for the speedometer gear housing on my Camaro failed it just…
