I had an evil racquet when I was in high school. I smashed it into a very odd shape, but I kept it and hung it in its regular spot on the wall in the garage ...

As a warning to my new racquet. (It worked. I’ve never had a cursed one since then.)

You think that the Jewish people would have destroyed Steven Spielberg* had he even tried to “jazz up” Schindler’s* List in any kind of way?

It’s not The Glen in Glenview, IL ...is it? (Because that’s an old Naval air station that got converted into an office park / retail thing - and I swear there’s shenanigans still to be found around there.)

Gotta account for the wind, too ...

This is the sort of crazy shit I would have loved to ask my grandfather about. He lived not too far from that location and actually worked at the Fisher Euclid plant (made body panels for various GM cars from 1950-1970, then converted to making interior parts and trim) back when these would have been brand new off the…

Better to be pissed off than pissed on.

That’s just about where I was headed.

The problem with designing something to be foolproof is that fool’s are occasionally ingenious.

Since you can’t bring this up to co-workers without immediately being fired—“Hey, Bob, excellent stream of piss you have there, but have you considered aiming a touch higher?”—try hanging a sign in the bathroom that will both shame and educate. A PG drawing of someone using the urinal properly like one of those…

Found this one at a car meet just a couple of weeks ago and I think it checks all of the boxes:

1991 Suzuki Cappucino (QUIRKY!)
Turbo (FUN!)
650-cc three-cylinder (EFFICIENT!)
RHD (Super quirky!)
Removeable hard top
Ten grand (AFFORDABLE!)

Hit it that far in baseball and the most you can ever hope for is 4. Seems like cricketers get the better deal.

How am I so out of touch? I was in college about 20 years ago. If we saw someone napping in the quad/commons/whatever, whoever was passing by would generally feel bad for the poor bastard because, as a fellow college student, we understood the need to sleep and eat whenever possible as the rest of our day was…

Who wins in a fight between Jason Bourne and John Wick?

WRT: di Vicenzo’s death ...

It was a faked suicide. She’s really Emma Peel and marrying Bond was just a cover. However, emotions got the best of her and she was falling for him. She had to get out of the situation, so she did.

It was a faked suicide. She’s really Olenna Tyrell and she’s had a vision of the future. She…

KBB used to be about the gold standard, but then everyone jumped onboard and it became NADA Black Book. Then people started finding out about that. As consumers become smarter and are able to find and share information faster, the dealers continue to look for ways to make money (or other sources of information that…

Don’t blame me. I just report what KBB and TC told me. I was simply curious how far from reality this dealership was.

I BS’ed the entry because 94 Prizm. I said “standard” equipment and a boatload of miles (like 200k - beyond that the model doesn’t care) and the lowest possible condition (because “shitbox” wasn’t a choice).

PHIL SWIFT HERE FOR FLEX SEAL!

Not that they are the bible, per se ...but KBB says that the trade value on that car is $126 and TrueCar told me to GTFO for even trying to find a Geo.
