The Japanese are really good at doing the retro-modern styling that American car designers seem to stumble over.

If you think about it, a wagon/van/hatchback makes far more sense in an urban environment. You can haul more cargo (whether it be people or items) in the exact same footprint as a sedan of the same size, which is basically an instant buy if you’re going to need to move 5 people and groceries, or move bulky items…

When it dies, will the MFD show “ARGHHH” or will the car just make the noise?

It’s designed to be as annoying as possible to ensure you perform whatever action is making it ding at you.

Seems like the driver gets out to start Lenin a hand.

Destiny has a very low barrier of entry. If you never touch the Crucible, you will have an enjoyable gameplay experience. Crucible requires split-second reaction times, and even then, it feels gimmicky. I’d personally avoid the Crucible unless you need to farm up a weekly reward, as Crucible matches reward you with…

My family has had two Jimmies, a ‘95 and a ‘98. Both of them had howling fans. Both of them failed in the middle of the winter. Both of them caused instantaneous panic.

Can we just say that howling HVAC fans are the worst? You have to tear apart the dashboard to get at them, they’re not exactly cheap, and more importantly, it means that if you need heating/cooling you’ll have to suffer through a veritable banshee for as long as you need the fans running. Half the time they sound like…

Most of them went for the xB anyways because it’s a toaster on wheels and nobody can really get away with that design anymore.

It’s like it’s trying to convey the power of a long-lost Alphard’s majesty.

At least the xA was a precursor to the iQ in a sort of “Honey, I shrunk the car” fashion. And the xA is kind of likeable because even in its normalcy it’s still different.

Insurance adjusters are weird. For whatever reason a repair that’s really only $100 for you is now $1200 and your car is totaled because of it, so it’s a salvage title and what amounts to nearly a free payout (minus the time and money you spend on a cheap and effective repair.)

Arena shooters are so fun, but so frustrating. Cube Sauerbrauten satiated me for a while, but it just isn’t the same.

Early access, to me, only makes sense with smaller indie developers that may not have as many resources to make forward progress with any sort of speed. Two of my favorite games right now - GRIP and From The Depths - are early access games. GRIP is finally releasing next month, and I’ve been around the community long…

Give me a two-tone version of one of these with a black roof and bright yellow paint.

Oppo/Jalop stickers.

I still remember the days when it was incredible to be able to talk to anyone in the world as long as they had an internet connection. I grew up with XP, and I still view those days through a rose tinted lens.

You’re not wrong. In the days of MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger, they were called emoticons, or just simply emotes.

I’ll just put an “oil slicks” sticker on one and joke about engine failures.

I did say near unkillable. Nothing is ever truly unkillable.
