I learned about this the hard way after consuming raw red onions in a potato salad over the weekend and becoming violently ill. Seriously, the first articles popped up on my newsfeed while I was in great pain.

For a second there I thought it was the actress who played Honey Bunny in Pulp Fiction.

So it’s basically Radiolab?

I take accuracy very seriously: I was disappointed when Ron Howard didn’t actually kill racing drivers in period-correct accidents in Rush. I kid, but I’ll let some inaccuracies & anachronisms slide if they aren’t plot-relevant or don’t necessarily break immersion. Using Rush as an example again, it captured the…

My first job out of college required me to commute 60 miles each way from San Francisco to the North Bay. Of course, this being the land of the rich NIMBYs meant no public transportation at the time, so I got in my car every morning at around 6 and got to my office at around 730. At least it was contra-flow and I got…

The internet told me the Mazda3 was literally a Ferrari designed by Jesus because Lamborghinis were inadequate and that it would shame all the major European brands in literally every category. The air would smell a little sweeter, bird songs would sound a bit sweeter. and time would move a little slower after I…

The second game of the season (first?) happened on my birthday.

I spy a GM Performance Parts sticker! I bet we’ll see this at SEMA this year...

Related: Kubica was jockeying for points finishes in his Williams during Hamilton’s first season. Twelve years later his Williams is getting lapped by the man himself. The march of time is ruthless, relentless, and probably faster than the 2019 Williams.

I put an anime fang on it.

$800 into a $1900 Volvo 240 turbo

Initial D

Yikes. I paid <2k for mine and it already had the turbo engine. Even with all the parts & work done and still-to-come I don’t think I’ll hit $7500.

The guy selling my Volvo told me he had all the service records. I figured it was BS until he handed me a stack of records from around 1989/1990 to about 2005 that he had on hand. 

I’ve got a rusty Volvo 240 Turbo wagon with high miles, shitty paint, and fluid leaks.

This only works if the other car is practical or could be made practical. My Miata’s swallowed up a welder, floor jack, jack stands, and countless tools to rescue my Volvo.

I saw a guy of the same build & height getting into a near-identical Miata. As I was wondering if he also had to do the Fosbury Flop getting in, I failed to notice the concrete pole just behind me to my right.

But does this mean Trump enjoys the music of Showaddywaddy?

Agreed, being “colorblind” only works if you’re a white male. It’s basically a socially acceptable way of putting your hands over your ears and screaming “LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR YOU!”.
