I’m surprised that the ridiculously-CGI Nissan commercials (the ones that basically say “this isn’t even close to real, so don’t mistake it for reality”) didn’t make it.

I grew up just a few miles from the Johnson Space Center and saw the Guppy come in and out of Ellington Field more than a few times. An amazing sight. It’s so big and flies so slow, it doesn’t seem like it should be able to stay aloft. It truly looks like a flying whale.

This is such a strawman. Show me a Democratic presidential candidate who is anywhere near as batshit insane as Carson or Trump.

Do you ever think in terms beyond tribal political party affiliation? That maybe all politicians regardless of ideology need to be called on their fucking bullshit because if they got into power they could actually really fuck things up? Or are you just a fucking whiny conservative with a persecution complex just like…

You know, I can live with his lying, total lack of policy knowledge, crackpot theories, homo-/trans-/Islamophobia, transparent pandering to the religious right, and coopting the primaries to sell books, but damn, his writing is awful. You’d think a successful pediatric neurosurgeon would hire a ghostwriter.

And I do not mean the “my son plays lacrosse” upper class. I mean the “I could kill a poor person and get away with it” upper class.

When I was shopping to replace my old MINI Cooper S which was doing it’s best impression of that flame on top of an oil refinery, I briefly considered a VW GTI with the dual-clutch automanualmagical transmission they had, if only so my girlfriend could split up the driving in long trips. But then I looked down at that…

It’s Friday, it’s been a long week. Let’s just take a knee and run out the clock. No need to be a hero and go for extra points. Lumberg doesn’t care that much about you anyway.

The Beetle is the only car out there that actually has a history in rallycross.

It’s likely just a big companies being safe. Part of it has to do with avoiding naming snafus in a global market. A name that works in Asia might translate to one who fucks goats in another part of the world. Or something..

I really want to see the market research that’s serving as the driver behind all these alphanumeric naming conventions.

“Don’t worry, Kaep. It’ll be fine.”

“What do the 2-6 49ers have to lose?”

My question is how did they get inside the stadium with all of that rappelling equipment. It looks like they came over the railing in the upper deck. There are going to be some folks in Security without a job after the NFL reviews this incident.

I was really hoping it’d read “NFC South Participant.”

St Louis politicians have already shown a willingness to drop trou, so they’re available as a threat. San Antonio, Las Vegas, Cleveland, all would love a professional football team. There are still plenty of places teams could threaten to move even if the LA specter is off the table.

Too bad AL Davis isn’t still alive. He’d let the Chargers take LA and then swoop in and get a great deal to relocate to beautiful downtown San Deigo.

Sounds like there will be lawyers...

It’s increasingly apparent that the NFL will have at least one NFL team (and probably three)
