“It’s not that four-cylinder engines can’t sound good”

yes. That or Akira. They’re all going to end up road sausage eventually. 

“was inadequate, and he believed he was overcharged”

I bike mostly, but only if I can secure my bike inside where I’m going. Locking it outside is no longer an option. I’ve had something like 20 bikes stolen. The scourge of bike thieves here is incredible. They will steal anything - any piece of junk with any kind of lock on it. I don’t understand. The bikes disappear…

You are in the Goldilocks zone of biking to work.  I’ve ridden home from work a few times. If you can keep the pace up, it’s a good ride. Keeping the pace up is dangerous because the trail is full of all kinds of traffic. people walking, strollers, people with headphones on, skate boards, roller blades, scooters, etc.…

The welding gas supplier I use will not sell any kind of gas to anyone in a car. If you don’t have a real truck with the bed not sharing air with the cab, you ain’t gettin no gas. Even an inert gas can fill up your car REAL quick and suffocate you before you know what’s going on.

The best thing for workers would be to give employees a real stake in the company, not just a paycheck. Every board needs an employee rep. We don’t run companies that way here for the most part.

This guy needs to stay away from car dealerships, period. It sounds like he gets tunnel vision when it comes to bad cars. 

He’s a full 2" shorter than she is. I guess there are more important things. But still, she’s not that tall. He’s even less taller. Maybe she was swept off her feet by this minor boy band member nobody wants to see/hear again. 

Americans are too dumb/careless to have trains at grade. The Metra/Amtrak system around here is mixed - some lines are above grade and not shared with freight trains and have no street crossings. Others are on freight lines at street level with swing gates at street crossings. The lines with street crossings have more…

The lack of people on the road during the pandemic opened up the streets to racing and burnout flashmobs. Things are weird in the US, and everybody here knows it. Most other high-income countries have been seeing fewer traffic deaths since the pandemic. During the pandemic, safer drivers were mostly staying home.…

I like these. I have done years of rust repairs, I don’t really need any more instruction on how to do it. It’s neat to just see it happen without all the yapping. Creating these videos must take a LONG time. 

I sail under the flag of New Brunswick, CA, or Seychelles Islands. Because they’re neat flags, is why.

It’s a great looking car with really cool styling inside and out. That interior is fantastic. However working on Italian stuff is worse than working on bad German stuff, so no. ND. 

What you want is a pickup truck from the 1970's. 

And there were only 11 answers good enough to make the grade? Most of the answers are the same thing said with different words: none. 

“Kentucky, Tennessee, and Alabama” - also known as the Axis of Yokel.

“Suddenly someone walks up to you, demanding that you let them help you pump your gas”

The lifts have a safety stop in case the hydraulics spring a leak or something. It’s not like you get a lot of training on how to use the lifts. People just assume you know what you’re doing because you’re ASE certified or whatever. In the corporate world we are forced to do all kinds of training. When I was a…

He wants something new and shiny, not a hand-me-down Audi from his mummy and daddy. The A4 is soooo passé. Modifying your car? So passé. Just buy a new one and give the old one to the help.
