When that damned robot closes his eyes and says “Superman”. It’s fucking Vin Diesel voicing a cartoon robot, for crying out loud (which I openly do), why am I in tears?

Also ...The Good Dinosaur. I was with my kids in the theater and I died. My wife was sobbing and holding my son who was a wreck. That got me going (so…

Aren’t you a little strong for a lady? I’m calling wang.

Does no one remember Ali/Inoki? Mixing disciplines doesn’t always work out well.

This, for some reason, didn’t quite resonate with me ...but it was closer than the friction circle explanation. Seriously, I had to read all the way through to understand where he was going.

What I was taught - and what clicked in my brain - was simply that acceleration + turning = 100%. So if you’re at 75% turn-in,…

Non-existent, much to my chagrin. Little League baseball and softball, little dude’s birthday, and working to put the basement back together following a May 1 flood. To top it all off, I need brake work I can barely afford, I’ve got a CEL I can’t fix myself, and my front bumper cover and grille both need to be…

I’ll admit I didn’t click all the way through, so maybe this has been done. However ...

You kiss your mother with that mouth?

Good buddy has one and it’s a monster. And a stick. And it’s converted to run E85. And it dyno’d at like 790 last I heard.

It’s ridiculously awesome. Just be careful - the heated seat controls are right about where your knees (can) touch the center console if you’re on the tall side. So, for example, if you’re on a…

I’m lucky enough to get to pilot one of these on a semi-regular basis. My FIL has owned one since maybe 1998 (?) and still has it. His is a 1991 Z32 (VG30DETT with a choose-your-own-adventure gearset) and with close to 200k on the clock it still runs like a champ. It’s reasonably well-serviced, but everything made of…

I’m embarrassed to admit how much I used to love that song.

Now I’m totally not going to go listen to it while I eat lunch at my desk ...

Gotta be X-Files era Mitch Pileggi.

How do none of you supposed Jalops recognize the iconic dash of a Gallo 24?

I put in something like $11. It weeds out the $1 and $5 stuff, but you still get dealers showing $100 and $200 ... Per month. But yeah, I was pretty excited to find that car, regardless.

Technically, this 1935 Olds comes up as $29 ... But that’s because the owner goofed.

...you are impatient because you are so important, your matters must be tended to immediately.

You are 100% correct. There’s no possible way I had a clear path in front of me and was attempting to pass a semi who was - to his credit - traveling well below the posted speed limit. There’s no possible way that in that moment he lost traction for whatever reason. I certainly didn’t have an important matter to…

Why were you following the semi close enough in a snow storm to put yourself in that position?

I worry less about the speed than I do about the number of consecutive hours the guy has behind the wheel. I’ll take an alert driver at 80 mph over a tired one at 50 mph.

Snowstorm across I-80 (traveling from IL to IA) and the semi in front of me jack-knifed. I was in the other lane, but the cab was coming into my lane (and facing towards traffic). If I hadn’t bailed into the ditch, I likely would have ended up under the side of the trailer.

The only way to run a tab in high style now is if you belong to a country club. Putting everything on the Underhills’ tab is the way to go.
