The Herb
Coulda been a herb.
What else are you going to do? Work?
Ya know, after reading all these messages, I rescind my nice memo. Fuck you Aaron
Happy trails, Aaron!
also important to remember that his custom license plate was L TRAIN until someone stole it, maybe a week after he got it
fuck you aaron
Goodbye and best wishes, Aaron. I hope Ballaban is right.
Shocked no one mentioned that Aaron dropped $4000 on a motorcycle to offset the L train’s shutdown last year, just to learn the L train would not be shutting down. I have no idea why he still owns the bike.
Oh, God, I missed the memo that we had to write paragraphs!! Aaron, I know I’m going to see you pretty much constantly once you leave this building because you are the only person I want to sing Jojo’s Get Out at karaoke with, and you are always asking my brother for car parts or advice.
Best of luck, hope someone can hold down the facebook group
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce Aaron Brown, Jalopnik’s indomitable social media editor, beloved car…
I would expect nothing less. Survival instincts kick in hard and fast when a tire slips. Hopefully making you more relaxed and followed by a gradual reduction in throttle. :) Read more
Dude, glad yr home safe.
I’m with you. Keep the final drive topped off, keep the antics down and ride it home monitoring things. I’ve ridden bike with oil leaks (no not Harleys haha) and other problems and its just par for the course that something will go wrong on some trip and you have to deal with it somehow.
Meh, that wouldn’t bother me at all. I’ve ridden in far sketchier situations and just monitored like Aaron did. Just because something looks super duper scary to one person doesn’t mean it is a huge issue to another person.
