Ugh - there’s always that ONE thing that ends up taking waaay longer than you thought it would. Glad you were able to pry the clipping off!

I’m shuddering just looking at that picture.

If it wasn’t for crappy video game movies, we would never have gotten the Mortal Kombat movie soundtrack or this gem:

In my area, it seems to be a suburban white dad thing. I’d say that roughly half of the 30-50 year old white guys in my neighborhood own a Wrangler or really want to get a Wrangler (or a Bronco) someday if their wife will agree to it. None of them have any interest in off-roading either.  It seems like a really…

A pristine, low mileage example is realistically going to sell in the $38-45K range. This one would probably be better priced at $25-30K given the miles, hail damage and super charger. I understand why some people super-charge these but I think the S54 engine is perfect as it is. Is it the fastest car on the straightaw…

I grew up with a super-judgemental, narcissistic, Asian mom. My wife and I are both Asian American. We always laugh at Simu’s “you can’t ever please your Asian parents” twitter jokes because they hit close to home. Is it an over-played stereotype? Yes but nearly all of my Asian friends have dealt with it to some…

Based on Shakira’s statement, it sounds like she moved to Florida to be closer to family and friends for support. I don’t think many young people actually WANT to voluntarily move to Florida these days. It’s probably also an FU move to Pique and his family.

He may not be banning them out-right, but he’s given power to a bunch of right-wing, religious people who are now deciding what books should and should not be allowed and he has left the topics so general that nearly anything could potentially be banned for any reason. For instance, any text book that violates their…

First they completely gutted Mondo and now this. Funko is the worst.

Paltrow has tons of money and is a bit out of touch with normal people. We get it. I’m trying to understand how that’s a bad thing in this situation. If I was obscenely wealthy and some idiot crashed into me on the slopes, putting me in pain and thus ruining my day of skiing then WTF is wrong with getting a massage to…

We have bike lanes painted into the street in random parts of my city. None of them actually work. The cars veer over the lines all the time and the bikers love to ride wherever the hell they want (middle of the road, on the sidewalk, through the red lights, etc...) even if they have their own lane. To be fair though,…

Yeah, both the studio version from Joshua Tree and the live version from Rattle and Hum are pretty amazing. At least one of them deserves to be on this list.

As the parent of a 9-year old who is obsessed with Monster Jam, this hits home. Can’t tell you how many Targets and Walmarts we have visited to find a monster truck he really wants only to see the aisle completely empty or picked clean.  We refuse to buy them on eBay.

I had a 2003 1.8T that was pretty awesome up until the 3rd year of ownership when random stuff would suddenly start to fall apart. The coil packs were a notorious issue with the 1.8T engine and once left my wife stranded in the city at night. The headlights and tail lights would often need replacing. The dipstick…

LOL - this totally didn’t happen. And if it did, she was probably yelling at herself, a-la Ed Norton in Fight Club.

I watched the Ferrari episode last night and the coverage on the team, Binotto in particular, was pretty brutal. They showed all the times that Ferrari had the lead and then gave it away with poor pit strategies during safety cars. They even showed the chain of events leading up to the screw-up in Monaco when…

It’s interesting how long-distance travel is perceived in different cultures. BMW, Mercedes, Porsche and Audi created high-powered, luxury sedans marketed towards people who wanted to travel far distances, quickly on the Autobahn. Meanwhile, people here in the US have this idea that they need trucks to travel long…

As someone who regularly hires engineering-focused college grads, I’m gonna have to call BS on this.  Can’t tell you how many times we lose a candidate to some random company that threw $130-160K to a kid who just graduated.  I graduated during the dot-com bust in the early 2000's and getting a decent paying job was…

It really depends on the accident. If it’s a minor fender bender resulting in cosmetic damage (which can be really expensive to fix), then that could warrant an insurance claim, which then gets reported as an accident on the record. It doesn’t really warrant a $10K hit on the valuation though.  

Thank you for explaining that. I’ve had the same gas in my snowblower for a year (we’ve barely gotten any snow this year) and I start it up and run it a bit every other month without issue so I couldn’t quite understand the 1-3 month rule. I learned the hard way to either leave the tank empty or completely full during…
