It doesn’t help that a certain model of compressor (maybe an LG brand?) commonly used among multiple manufacturers had a design defect causing failures of newer model fridges. I know 2 people personally who had the same failure and had a helluva time finding a replacement fridge.

I was just about to come in here with a retort about doing dishes and cooking. To be fair though, my wife can vacuum, clean the bathrooms and do common laundry in 1 day, i cook and do the dishes every night, so it feels equitable.

You bring up a good point, when can we stop washing our groceries? My wife insists we do it but we’re the only people i know who do. I’m all for washing produce, but do i really need to wash my frozen pizza?

I’ll argue that Americans love for SUVs is one or two class sizes larger than our European neighbors. Someone in Europe might buy an Escape because they need space for their family. The equivalent sized family in American buys an Explorer. 

We all know 9th generation Fords were the pinnacle of American truck design. 

thank GOD they irradiated Polo in Africa. Now for the rest of the world!

Spicy McChickens aren’t offered everywhere, a disappointing fact i discovered moving to the midwest. Regular McChicks are nowhere near as good.

2 green chile cheese burgers and a Hot n Spicy McChicken was my go-to 2 AM McDs order in college.

Not everyone has it, which was news to me when i moved from the Southwest to the Midwest.

I think a more appropriate competitor for the VW Taos would be the Hyundai Santa Fe?

Sounds like he googled “Taos” and got a hit for Taos Pueblo and went with that.

Everyone is already moving to Colorado, its too far gone except for a few of the smaller more remote towns. At this point we should sacrifice it to the Californians and merge forces to protect the rest of the western states.

I wonder if anyone from VW has ever been to Taos. Fun Fact, the local SCCA chapter used to host an Auto Cross in the Taos Ski Valley parking lot. A gorgeous location, if a bit sketchy. Its kind of peaceful hearing squealing tires and engine noise reverberate around the mountains.

I’m glad they can point out New Mexican cuisine is different than Mexican, or Tex Mex, but come on, come within 300 yards of a New Mexican and we will be talking your ear off about Chile. There are tons of pueblos with their own culinary history.

Usually Raph is more positive, its Erik that is the Eeyore of the site. 

mmmmm Nostalgia. I had a Trooper II in high school, slowest thing in the world, best car for a 16 year old to have. Looking at that interior brings back so many memories.

There was a sandwich place i loved that closed down a few years ago, they had an amazing turkey sandwich that had some spicy spread on it, i never knew what it was. Because i’m still obsessed with this sandwich 3 years after the place closed down, i used the internet to find the chef who used to work there and asked…

Your poor server offering you a refill, doesn’t know what they’re in for....

A dude named Schawarma is tellin us to marinate our meat in yogurt? Next up, Johnny B. Becue gonna tell us to cook meat on a grill?

Tacos are an amazingly flexible dish that can be healthy. Insides can be any variety of vegetables, cooked or raw. Top with the slaw with lime based dressing and salsa or hot sauce. kmdk81484 made a good point about Cotija cheese, just a tiny bit has big flavor!
