I’ll point out that the example you used is of highly trained and skilled individuals.

There are a couple of differences between a firearm and your other methods identified:
1) Knives require training to find that ‘sweet spot’ - and its much easier on a still target than one struggling and fighting back. Imagine the additional damage able to be done if, say, that guy at work who was a Ranger before he…

A falacial argument. We are required to have a modicum of training before operating a vehicle; one can purchase a pistol merely by firing over cash.

There does seem to be an extreme extrapolation of the liveS of the wealthy (never limited to a wife - at least one mistress permissible) with “everyone” which is a steaming pile of crap.

With san marino there was a logical reason - there was already an Italian grand prix. And san marino is only 100km away. I mean, if you hop in a helicopter and go way up there, you can see it from the track. If you squint and it’s not cloudy.

That’s the best course in this instance, but what about those who encounter non binary individuals casually or in work? Is there an ‘accepted’ set of terms or is this something that society will look back and chuckle over in 10 years time?

It’s still cool! Just cool with a naturally aspirated 4 cylinder hatchback.

In australia you are required to spend a ridiculous number of hours training to get your license and then can’t drive higher powered cars.

You have hours that you neither eat nor masturbate!?

I’ll take 3 and a jar of oysters, please.

Except for auto.

Also there with you on the Mazda 6. I hate the fact that to get a high level of comfort along with a manual, I have to look at European cars - which is a level of spending that I don’t really want to stretch to.

I tend to agree when it comes to the sedan market. Sister in law just bought a Fiesta - laughed when I asked which she preferred out of the small cars.

A little known superfluous organ is your second eye. Just like a second kidney, your non-dominant eye is but a luxury. Who needs depth perception anyway?

Why aren’t you giving this sort of practical, real advice Tom?

SBC isn’t a bad engine, just designed to a set of older philosophies. The very fact that one of these will last to 1 million km indicates that they’re brilliant for endurance racing.

The push rod v8, relative to a German v8, lacks complexity. That doesn’t mean it’s not a brilliant engine, just that it’s robust.

Thus comparing to a bmw is kinda comparing a granny smith to a genetically modified super apple which grows in half the time, resists insects and glows in the dark because someone crossed it with a jellyfish and costs twice as much.

Except a corvette engine isn’t exactly the most modern piece of kit going around.

Well said.
