I'm surprised people are tweeting about anything other than OMGWTFPS3MELTDOWN!!!

@joneez wants the clunkers he paid for: Absolutely. I've been meaning to read that for years but I keep forgetting when I'm at the library, which is almost never. That's the only one suggested so far that I've heard of other than the ones that ptolin said.

@snipermav: Sounds like only the phat systems are affected. Clock is back to 12/31/99, can't sign in to PSN, and for some reason Heavy Rain won't work if it can't sync your trophy info. Rubenstein wrote a comment on his blog saying PSN is down, and he would be back with updates when he has them.

@DannKnee: Same problem here. Didn't even notice the date thing until you mentioned it.

I may read this someday, but I feel like there are other car-related books I should get to first. I just don't know what those are yet. Any suggestions from the commentariat would be greatly appreciated.

@elwood: Oh don't get me wrong, I've loved a number of shit cars in my day. I think the common theme among commenters is that we love interesting cars. Most cars fit under that label in some way or another, I just don't think lowering a Miata so far that you ruin the handling and can't turn the steering wheel without…

@Sean Incantalupo: You will find very little sympathy here. Cars are meant to be driven, and any modification which borders on making them undrivable seems pretty pointless to me. And the man wrote his own opinion, on his own blog. If you don't agree with it you can always visit other websites. Seems pretty hilarious…

@Lemme_Know_Ho: Ah, I forgot that there are two states on either side that also begin with I. I would assume you're talking about Iowa then, I know plenty of kids from the suburbs who go there, no so many that go to Indiana.

@Lemme_Know_Ho: Northwestern or U of I?

@dry-roasted-peanuts: Did I ever tell you 'bout the time I boofed your dad?

@Matt Farah: Big dudes need overpriced-Ferrari lovin' too.

@ArtForge: Winner. I chuckled.

Everyone who voted Crack Pipe obviously didn't read the article. I'll never shop at K-Mart again.

"When asked why he would trade in a German hypercar on what is essentially a tarted-up Corvette, Mr. Beal responded by shouting USA! USA! USA! and beating a Canadian to death with a hockey stick."

WOAH, can we get a spoiler alert? Some of us have never seen Casablanca. Thanks for ruining the ending Matt.

@bacon117 - Escort Owner, Lover: There are only 3 significant digits in 14,200. So if you are multiplying or dividing that number your result should also have 3 significant digits. So 118 is absolutely correct.

That looks just like my old Neon, except mine had foglights. Or it had holes in the bumper where the foglights used to be, before a few love-taps knocked them loose and they were never seen again.

@Van Sarockin, rogue trebuchet: I think most races end up being a few hundred laps. Hurts their chances a little bit.

@narf: I have my doubts as to how well that contract would hold up in court if they refused. And I doubt Lamm would even take it that far. Sure, they would never be allowed back to LeMons, but that's a small price to pay if they are really attached to the car.

@Powerlurker: I still see RC Cola in grocery stores, don't know if anyone ever buys it. At the discount grocery store here (Aldi) they have a brand called GT Cola, it's as generic as it gets but if you just need some caffeine it's as cheap as they come.
