You are an admitted masochist/poor decision-maker. The Honda, Toyota, and Infinity excepted. :D


I've still never owned a mobile phone of my own. :homer:


I had a buddy with one of those in high school. Holy shit the shenanigans involved with that vehicle. :rofl:


Was it the turbo-coupe? My sister had one of those... blew it up.
No, mine was the base model with the 3.8 V6 that had a whopping 120 HP when brand new.
The 1.8 liter in my 1966 Volvo with 400,000 miles probably makes 130.

I like our RDX. It was "too interesting" for US soccer moms so you know it was good, and the fastest accelerating Acura.
I remember that car- it was indeed quite nice. I'd love to have something RWD biased, and I reeeeeally want to avoid an SUV/Crossover if at all possible. I'd buy another Infiniti FX, but they are overvalued for what they are, but once I downgrade to a FWD CUV, then I could get anything I want. So, I keep huntin'. Jeep GC checks those boxes, and so does the Dodge Charger, plus either can be had with a hitch...

Perhaps you enlightened gentlemen can help me navigate these stormy seas. As a very impressionable and easily influenced little lamb, I cannot help but be petrified by the thought that antifa will take my guns, burn my house down, and donate my children's body parts to planned parenthood for a socialist communist fascist baby part pizza eating night.
Fuck.

I read the comments.

Had a really good employee resign today. Got offered a good job. I had already clearly and several times made my boss aware of the big risk but company had other priorities then develop their ecommerce :-(

Did some work on Haley's desk which involved the table saw. Holy. Shit. That thing makes my Ryobi just feel unsafe. The surface is smoother. It's rock solid. The power button is fucking huge. The fence is stiff as hell and straight. Best $1000 I've spent on tools in a long time; possibly ever.

That is like looking at the moon and telling yourself "one step at a time and I can get there"
When I was a snot nosed 9 year old, some adult condescendingly told me and my brother “If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything!”
Apparently I replied “Oh yeah? Can we fly into the sun unaided by technology?”

I don’t think he liked me.
