Ten bucks says this is for ballin’ landscapers.

Oh, holy crap. Found pics of a decent one.

Oh, fundamentally I agree with you on all counts. If this sort of program is offered, there is pretty much no strategic downside. Worse case scenario, say economy tanks and we’re out of work, we’d end up with X months of mortgage payments parked in the war chest. Best case, we get to throw a few percent worth of…

I get the moral quandry here. “What do I do with this free money that I don’t need?” Along those lines. . .

My wife and I are both able to work remote for healthcare companies, so we’re probably good. Well, as good as us plebes can hope. A few friends have been talking about the rumored/proposed/potential “mortgage…

You’re right. Two-door sedan does have some historical precedent but damned if I can think over anything past the 60's sold as such. Maybe some of the baroque land-barges from the 70's tried to class themselves up, but I think “Personal Luxury Coupe” was the marketing wankery at that stage.

Which used to be universally called a “coupe” until Mercedes decided to fuck that all up. Hell, the term’s accurately used one column over. It’s odd to see it used internally, and I suspect it’s just some weird artifact.

Hmm....

uhhhhhhhh. . .

One thing I appreciate about MineralBlu’s work: telling me who the cosplayer is portraying. That’s a whole shit load of sailor fuku, and I haven’t had the time to keep up with the recent series in a long, long time. I’m guesstimating a 25-33% recognition rate.

Exactly. This is one of those weird “three-answer” NPOCPs. It’s probably a win if you’ve an H2O-shaped hole in your heart, for the average car nut, there’s some debate but probably a loss, and the average schmoe would scoff from the get-go. Neat car, though, and you’ll probably not find a cleaner example.

As far as…

As well as the wonderful world of home-distilling.

I’m largely in the same boat. Well, except for being here in the glorious Commonwealth of PA, my supply of hard liquor has been largely turned off by Governor Wolf’s closing of both the state stores and the PLCB’s online shopping site. I’ve got a few small distilleries nearby that I can hit up; otherwise I’m sneaking…

I dunno. Mortgage crisis cratered our economy. The combined effect of 9-11 and the Tech Bubble bursting cratered our economy. I was a wee one at the time, but I kinda recall the post-Cold War, pre-Gulf War era as not being especially lovely either. Black Monday. Seems like the economy implodes on a rhythm these past…

Neat cars, and for the price, it’s more interesting than its Prius contemporary. I’d pony up for this as a commuter pod.

That said, I’d rather have the second-gen or the weirdo Caddy offshoot.

True but you can’t ride him.  SM64DS added him as a playable character, welcome, but not quite the same thing.

Never got the hate for the game. Always found it kinda funny that Nintendo essentially took the part of the game “everyone hated” and made one of the best team-based online shooters for a console.

Kinda goes without saying, but I’m all in on the nigh-guaranteed Mario64 remaster. Modern graphics and a few “quality of life” improvements is all a remaster would need. Maybe add Yoshi and Luigi, if they wanna do some special.  Hell, I’d almost forgive them for the “one island” Animal Crossing debacle.

Soooo. . . I hate being that guy, but you rewarded Nintendo for a shitty, shitty game design decision? I want this game and my wife is interested to the point of firing back up Pocket Camp. Shared island? Cool. I was eagerly awaiting the notion of surprising my wife with Lake Cokenbalz, dug next to her house in the…

I replaced my daily with an E90 335i. xDrive. I apparently am deeply okay with risky bidness.
