    In 1986, they got me addicted to love.
    In 1988, they were simply irresistible to me.
    Now, after a post Robert Palmer, late-life career reboot as overly intrusive electronic nannys which let the idle rich buy their way out of paying proper attention to actually driving while they are behind the wheel, my reaction to them today is quite the opposite.
    Sorry ABS, EBD, ESC, ESP, ESF, PCS, RSC, TCS and all of the other silver-suited safety systems in the braking bag, err backing band, but I didn't mean to turn you on.

    @1000songs: lol! I was trying pretty hard to sound funny but not rascist. And promptly, bravely, courageously, gave up.

    Unable to decide between a slushbox, a manual, or a DSG, the engineers at Mercedes Benz decided to just give the new models 3 trannys.

    We tried all ze techy systems ve cood think of, zay ver all too prone to failure. Our new system ees entirely mechanical, ven it appears ze easily distracted, imprecise, non-German driver does not notice ze impending crash Jan here vill hurl herself in front of ze car. Ze impact of her precise German body impacting ze grill vill alert ze driver so zat they may avoid ze accident.

    @madcows: non compos mentis methane machine: there are free synths and samples all over the internet. why do you think there's so much shitty electronic music these days? anyone with a computer thinks they're a "producer".


    douchebag: "hey baby, i'm a techno producer."
    me: "really? i've been playing detroit and german techno for 11 years. what do you use?"
    douchebag: "fruity loops and reason."

    When car reviewers all agree that car models have gotten fat in recent years due to safety regulations, German engineers were keen to demonstrate that safety and lightweight models weren't mutually exclusive.


    Of course, as usual, German and English don't translate very well.
