Some people do make that distinction, they say “shepherd’s pie” is made with minced lamb whereas the same thing except with minced beef is called “cottage pie.” Either name, however, is vastly preferable to “Potato Turbate,” which, though quite tasty, none of my squeamish classmates would put in their mouths on

As an actual white American, I do not feel “bad” or “guilty” knowing that lots of white Americans, both in the past and today, were or are racists, because I am not a racist.

You’re using the old textbook definition of “CRT.” Nowadays, thanks to heavy lobbying by right-wing cranks, “CRT” has a second definition as “teaching history regarding race relations.”

I disagree.  There isn’t such a thing as a kiddie driving license, and if there were it certainly wouldn’t entitle its holder to drive a two-an-a-half ton, 640 horsepower car.  When you get an adult driver’s license, you take on adult responsibility.

I don’t care how many right-wingers sign on to the campaign, and I don’t care how many times they shout their moronic slogans and post their moronic “memes,” I will never, never, never take the incredibly idiotic proposition that “vaccines = tyranny!!!1!” seriously. It’s the perfect textbook example of bullshit.

Yeah, Dave Chappelle used to be a very funny guy, but Dave Chappelle channeling Jordan Peterson is in no way going to be the least bit funny.

So we have a regulator for an industry whom a CEO in that industry dislikes, right? That’s a great recommendation itself, same as a professional shoplifter saying “Boy oh boy, I sure dislike that particular mall cop over there.”

I have even managed to get the rear end of a Miata loose (in a huge empty parking lot), but you’ve got to work pretty hard to get a low-horsepower car to let go of the road. In contrast, it’s super-easy to lose control of a high-horsepower car, a lot of people do it while hardly even trying (goggle “Mustang

I like the new Bronco (especially the two-door model) but I’ve been in the Everglades, it’s going to take more than a truck to get through the Everglades. It’s like, we’ve all seen the innumerable SUV ads where they drive it up to the top of a mountain, but if you call your SUV the “Mount Everest edition” the fact

Sure hope the airline pilots don’t go on strike. “What do you mean, I’m not qualified to fly a 737? I’ve got an MBA!”

Why do you need a new car? There’s a switch in a Miata to turn off the passenger-side airbag.  For those occasions when you want Mom, Dad and the baby to go for a ride, you’ve got the GTI.

I don’t know, I was too young to know what was up. I was an elementary school student in 1962 when the Sarasota County School Board said, “OK kid, looks like you’re an official CWP™! Congratulations! That means you get to go to the local neighborhood school, unlike those other kids we send across town to go to the colo

With an AR-15 in his hand.

Dateline: October 12, 1959. Location: Huntsville, Alabama. In an interview with popular local comedian Bobby Lee Chapel, he says he is “happy to be cancelled.” Says Chapel: I know there’s some agitators who think my routines about them colored folks are tasteless and terrible, but the fact is, the audiences down here

My father, who was French, referred to French people as “frogs” - “see? we Frogs do [a thing] much better, because we are smart” (proudly) or “...aggh, these fucking Frogs!” (disparagingly). Maybe being French myself, or at least half-French by birth, I can get away with it.

Five kids, all in the same car at the same time. That’s absolutely terrifying. When my kids were young, having just my two youngest (2 out of 3) in the car at the same time was an enduro.

As a Certified White PersonI’m naturally curious as to what “discrimination against whites” would consist of. Deed restrictions forbidding selling or leasing real property to us crackers? White job applicants being turned away from all-non-white companies? Inferior segregated public schools? Massive, systematic

In defense of Suburbans, they are ridiculously oversized for their commonest use (as a passenger car) but they are great vehicles for land surveying field crews.

It’s actually quite comfortable!... Because it’s a front-wheel drive car, there’s no tunnel, so there’s a ton of leg room...

  • But, Detective Smith, don’t you understand that by fabricating a case against an innocent man, you’re not only annihilating his life, but also letting the actual murderer off the hook? So he can kill again, and again?
