Especially once you factor in the legit rules plus a healthy dose of cheating.

To elaborate on smalley’s comment: I assume Gambler works the same way, but in Lemons virtually everything “safety” related was exempted from your build total, plus “scavenger sales” of components counted towards reducing the initial cost.…

Shoulda scrolled further.  It wasn’t just me!

Hmm, Eda’s character design seems oddly familiar. . .

Today, here in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I had rain, sun, more rain, overcast, sun, flurries because-why-the-hell-not? and a temperature that went for high 40's-low 50's into the 30's in the space of an afternoon. I don’t know what fucking season it wants to be. Welcome to the mid-Atlantic.

Hmm. . . . I feel a little like I’m moving the goalposts but this example is so close: the amateur economist in me really wants to pull out the “market forces” weasel card and claim it was a response to slow sales, not active cries of being overpriced. Granted, I might’ve missed the media/social context of the…

Honest question, though. . . Has Nintendo ever changed a major aspect of a game/product due to consumer annoyance/outrage? I can’t think of one. Just to give an idea of what I mean: a classic example would be Microsoft announcing the online requirement for the XBone. Look at how irate the consumers and press got…

It’s meh design choice, though, here in 2020. And I say this as someone who probably won’t be affected by this in the least.

You want multiple people, presumably in the same household, to share an island? Cool. I actually dig this idea. And provide cloudsave? Easy, you get one shared island, linked to your Nintendo…

And this is pretty much what the ‘Murrican body-on-frame sedans excelled at: long distance cruising, wafting along in what may as well be your living room. We lost something when they were finally phased out.

Sidenote - I really need to include the panther sisters as well, so a Marquis or Towncar is also golden. As…

Noooooooope.

Fifteen years with one of these taught me that they’re fun dailies and acceptable weekenders. You can’t roadtrip in one of these unless you’ve got every Motel6 and laundromat on your path preloaded into your phone: the trunk is nowhere near large enough and the 2+2 seating makes sleeping in the backseat…

Crackpipe.

You can find a pre-refresh Renegade with the (what’s essentially) 500 Abarth engine, six-speed manual and AWD with faaaar less mileage for a little more scratch. Functionally the same thing, and I’ll trust a factory hairdryer long before one from a jackwagon who can’t route their piping correctly.

They probably already do. Mainly because they’re build on a glorified bus chassis. These fuckers also come equipped with solid oak cabinetry, slate floors and three or four slide-outs. My wife and I went to the RV show in a convention near our house: it’s mind-numbing what these things come equipped.

I get the feeling…

Fucked if I know.  Mass stupidity or simply being too lazy for critical thought are my best guesses.

Maybe the engine out of a ‘Wing, or some ancient all-iron Harley lump weights over a hundred pounds, but I’ve manhandled complete standard and sportbike engine/trans assemblies in an out of my trunk. Those things are pretty light for what they are.

That said, I almost wonder if he just postfailed: 100 pounds added to…

<sigh> That’s what I thought. I’m not a fan of the Gladiator as is*, but at stupid money off and a bed cap that’d “fix” it visually, suddenly that argument becomes super compelling.

Just cross fingers that they retain the stick after the eventual refresh. The Wrangler has traditionally been holding on but after it got…

Shut. Up.

With the inevitable land grab on the R34, I’m hoping the fuckers overlook the Silvia for a good long time.  Don’t remind them.

Goddamnit, that one in the upper right reminds me that my credit score is solid, these bitches can tow and can had with a stick.

Are these real, and if so, where? If not, my wallet thanks you.

I think that episode was a couple weeks back, if I recall? But yeah, the irony here is amazing in that regard. I agree with the central conceit, that Pokemon would work better as a subscription-based service, a la an MMORPG, but as you’ve noted, that’s not what’s happening here ‘cause Nintendo gonna Nintendo.

It’ll be…

Jim Sterling’ll have a field day with this.

“Loiiiiive SeearVessssezzzzz....”

I get where you’re heading, and I generally agree. . .

But seriously, I will bet you a bottle of your favorite hooch that Clinton’s impeachment and affair will damn sure be the second sentence of all but the most kind news piece after he croaks.  And in that one, it’ll be third.

I’d be curious if that behavior crosses the line into the legal definition of harassment. If so, get a few fellow homeowners fed up with this busybody to file formal (re: legal) complaints against her, the HOA and the developer and you could at least break the HOA’s back, if not neuter it completely.
