I’d push back on this one being a bad car! AWD manual turbo coupe with attractive styling?? Nothing to be embarrassed about!

Man, I haven’t seen a first or second gen Eclipse, Talon, or Laser out in the wild in years.

A little bit less embarrassed about this one, but I want the Eagle version, if you don’t mind.

It’s not exactly normal to idolize a Mazda but...

My dad had an 82 Trans Am and it was the coolest car in the world to me. The t-tops blew me away. 

Valid callout since I didn’t explicitly explain this. Having had a TJ, a 2-door Jeep is just especially impractical on the road. I do have kids, and getting them in and out of the back was a nightmare. More problematic, however, was that I could barely carry anything in it. Maybe it’s just me, but the only redeeming…

Well it’s the only defense they could muster. Effectively Elon is so full of shit, and his comments and claims so obviously absurd that no reasonable person could actually believe what he’s saying.

Even Musk’s lawyers think he’s completely full of shit.

Plus 1.

Not sure who you were reading before, but it wasn’t me. 

Fancy steakhouse. No lunches, no Sundays. It was the perfect college job since I had all morning open.

I have a similar story about a crazy driver at the ATM. I worked as a waiter for a long time, and often made large deposits on Sundays, as that was always a guaranteed off day as we were closed.

That was a great read Peter, I’m laughing at the situation but with knowing empathy hidden inside.

I have, unfortunately, been there.

I don’t normally answer these since they’re not really for staff, but hopefully, you this one hits enough key Jalop points to be worth it.

It would have been better if the Cold War solution to spying solution was used without Law Enforcement being involved. Imagine if the Rahal-Letteman-Lanigan Racing had their transmission shift from top gear to second during a race due to copying intentionally flawed tech...
