I read that article, but I guess I completely let it slip out of my brain when thinking about it in a Mazda. On a side note, I absolutely love how many times I've seen theAutopian used as a source lately. I've apparently stumbled upon the right crowd on the interwebs.

I'm really curious about how it drives with that in the nose, but then again LS3 swaps are a thing so it's probably fine. I'd love to know the story about the how and why for a j32

I haven't been to Wendy's since they tried to dynamically price a Baconator. Now McDonalds wants to give it a try right with [motions around] all this going on. I guess Taco Bell will end up winning the franchise wars after all.

As a lover of STI Wagons and EVO's, thank you all for starting my day right, but don't forget the EVO wagon! And that white EVO IV reminds me, if you haven't scene it before, Check out Jackie Chan's "Who Am I?". Silly movie, but fun EVO IV chase scene.

My personal favorite is when these types say all this crap in a room full of female family members, then look at their mom (or 4 daughters, or 3rd wife) and say "No offense."

I have been told I have an absolutely ridiculous music collection, and thought, after a few mentions from friends, that I'd start sharing what I'm listening to while I'm working. Feel free to give feedback and share some of your own as well!

As the world waits for AI to go full skynet, Aston Martin is like: Hey guys we made a moto-terminator. I like carbon fiber and billet titanium sure, but on paper this only weighs 28lbs less, and makes 3lb.ft/50hp less than my 11 year old Suzuki... But will cost as much as a house. I don't get it.

from personal experience, I can tell you that erotic mimery is perhaps the one field that really doesn’t work out here. So, you have pretty much two options: Become the host of a tourism promoting show, or become a fitness guru and make friends with Tom Petty. Either way, get that shingles vaccine.

I've passed the same school bus stop most weekday mornings for years now, and every time, I see a girl waiting for the school bus. Always alone, looking sad. Last week, 3 other kids appeared. Now when I pass, they're waiting together, and she's joking and smiling. more of this please, universe.

"Marty. Are you fixing this AI agent, or what? What do you mean you have no idea how it works? Is there like a check box to make it stop randomly saying moist? Okay... Marty says there is a check box for “Racist tirades”, and “Buy out PS5 stock or Pokemon cards”, but nothing about it saying moist."

It's easy to say "Haha! Fuck those Red states!" I live in Arkansas, and more of us voted against all this than you would think, and will continue to. But when state government systematically erodes your voice and vote at every turn, it ends up like this. Not everyone anywhere is anything.

I pass an elementary school on the way to my usual mountain twisties, usually around their recess or lunch. The utter explosion from the entire playground when you answer their requests for a quick rev set the vibes for the rest of the ride.

I used to think people that would write things like this were just trolling. Then my neighbor stopped me on my way to grab a ride in the mountains, and said equally bananas things while maintaining direct and unflinching eye contact.

Reminds me of an old article from Sport Compact Car when they were trying out the then new 350Z: "We're here to see the eclipse," yells the girl from the white Accord. "No," we yell back, "That's not an Eclipse, it's the new Z-car." she looks confused. "No we're here for the solar eclipse."
