Age question....
I often ask that question about many of the people on this board. And I'm 20.

2007 GMC Acadia - Images
Exterior complaints: 1: I am really sick of irregularly shaped headlights whose odd designs do nothing for aesthetics other than to differentiate products. Seriously designers, if you can't be creative enough to make multiple distinct designs, you should probably find yourself a new career. 2: Interior Complaints: :crickets:

Best places to live 2006
I worked in Cary yesterday. It's a pretty basic suburb, lots of urban sprawl and strip malls, nothing spectacular about the place. But it does have a high percentage of transplanted northerners, so I guess it's good for those people who want to live in the south without actually ever having to deal with southerners.

World Cup Soccer
That doesn't surprise me. European soccer is pretty notorious for having players taunted for their race/ethnicity. Thierry Henry's actually done a lot of work to speak out against all of the racist chants that go on at games.

I Totally Got Owned...
Actually, monkeys throwing crap at each other is a pretty apt metaphor for BV and Croc's relationship.

ABC News: Are Men Getting Smaller Where It Counts?
I always just assumed that these studies under-reported so that guys wouldn't end up killing themselves out of shame.

buickman has a proven sales track record
Again, for Buickman, I evoke the Peter Principle. A rule of organizations that states, “In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.” Formulated by Laurence J. Peter, this rule is supposed to explain occupational incompetence. Buickman's skills are excellent for selling Buicks, but for him to try to use those skills to save all of GM would be for him to make a huge leap into a level which he clearly knows nothing about. Luckily, GM isn't allowing that to happen this time.

Okay, I'm Weird. And Here's Another Reason For Why
This reminds me of one night in chat from a while back. I know yemodwa was in there, but I can't remember who else took part in our backwards, upside-down fun.

Pictures!
Sometimes, Satty, I think you're one of the wittiest members of this site. And then you post goatse.

Canada: No sex please until we're 16
Actually, most liberals I know are for taking every realistic preventative measure possible to ensure that an abortion isn't necessary, whereas conservatives bitch about abortions while embracing a policy that actually ends up causing more of them. And by the way, I was raised Catholic, and if there is one thing that stuck with me, it's the belief that the fetus is a real human life and that killing it is wrong. But I can't possibly bring myself to side with such a fanatical group that completely fails to acknowledge reality.

Pants are stupid sometimes!
I was thinking the other day that the mesh liner of swimming trunks should be put into more widespread use. I mean, it really is a perfect idea, some nice support without being confining and providing plenty of ventilation. Why should such comfort be confined solely to beachwear?

Ever Feel Like Your Life Could Be a Movie's Plot?
I don't know if "like to hear" is the right term, since I'd rather such stories didn't exist at all, but wow. It's amazing what people can do to cope with their lives.

GM DUSTBUSTERS
I'll agree with Fly and Sly, but still, all that means is that they were the best of a bad bunch.

Hate it when people sit on your car(s)?!
It's probably best not to ask yourself that question. Just accept that they are and learn to defend yourself against their idiocy.

Paranormal
They tried, but trying to visually represent a tongue in cheek just creates way too many other insinuations. :AH-HA_wink: I wouldn't rule stuff like that out entirely, but I think most of them are just people trying to explain things they don't have the knowledge to understand fully. A great example is the way that people tend to say that the crazy dreams caused by sleep paralysis are actually an alien abduction or a visit from some demonic being. Sleep Paralysis Abductions So yeah, label me a skeptic. Sure would be fun if they were real, though.

Napoleon Dynamite and C&G analogy..
Holy Rat Pack, Sly, you do look kinda like a young Sinatra.

FWD cars that would have the biggest sales
But the reasons that the Toro was FWD are pretty much moot now, with traction control and superior tires and suspensions. If a new Toro were to be made (never gonna happen, but this site is half fantasyland anyway, so let's just pretend) then I can't see why a RWD version would be wrong at all. Tradition is just as dumb a reason to make a FWD car as it is for making a RWD car.

Philosophically speaking, are you happy?
I'm not sure what your full deal is with him (or if you're even sure yourself) but not being his co-worker could be a great opportunity for you.

Super 88 trouble... CRACKED BLOCK
This explains so much.

....
Even if they're just cheap-looking chrome-coated plastic? Besides, the pissed-off truck look is really just a creation of the past 15 years. Come on now, the roofline is probably the least of the Titan's problems! And this new Silverado earns a heartfelt "meh." Instead of taking the Tahoe front end and putting it on the Silverado, it looks like they took the Tahoe front end, dipped it in chrome, and THEN put it on the Silverado. As for the sides, well, not as bad as a Durango or Titan, but still somewhat disjointed.

A day in the life... June 11th 2006
Nice. You gonna fix it up anymore, or just use it for cruising while you save up for the '59?

You may be insane, but you are definitely a master of metaphor, lol.

Satan Day.
Ehh, those extra bolts just mean fewer extra parts to slow the engine down. And the ticking is obviously the car expressing its joy at being able to run again.

So I am now officially a professional hippie.
. . . At least through the summer. Today was my first official day at work for Environment North Carolina. So for the next few months, I get to go through local neighborhoods canvassing to raise money for a campaign preserve a million acres of North carolina's natural areas from our rapid development. And for that, I feel like a banana dance. (Dance is made with 100% organically-grown bananas, of course.)
