“QWERTY, I mean what is QWERTY, anyway? Sounds like a protected class trying to use KEYBOARDS to advance their agenda. I’ve been collaborating, maybe even colluding, with a guy named DVORAK to bring his amazing, groundbreaking keyboard layout to the market under the TRUMP brand so it finally gets the recognition it… Read more

For a very long time, they only had two flavors — Nacho Cheese and Cool Ranch....aka The Red Doritos and The Blue Doritos. Read more

LOL....but Jason already made the joke above. Hard to put anything past him. Read more

I don’t think I appreciate the way Cory Booker appears to be staring at those pics so, um..... contemplatively. Read more

Not at all. I was loosely comparing getting turned down for a loan (being ironically a GOOD thing) with the common slavery apologist trope that living in Africa today is worse than in the US; therefore, that slave traders were doing a good thing in the long run. Read more

The best camo for any new Hyundai is just a little Enterprise or Alamo sticker on the back. Read more

I’m more than a little tired of “Line” meaning “Stuff to make your car look like the nicer trim, but you only wanted to pay for about half of the upgrade.” Read more

Is “Congratulations, your car loan is declined!” the new version “You’re better off here than in Africa, anyway!”? Read more

The point about the stock — and this goes for any insider — is that any meaningful sale tends to hit the stock hard. Not just the supply/demand aspect, but the signal that it sends to the Street when a founder starts selling. Read more

Neutral: I think the general consensus is that 2004-2010 was the “sweet spot” for modern safety, good power, decent economy, and VERY LITTLE OF THAT INTRUSIVE BULLSHIT THAT WE’VE BEEN TOLD THAT WE WANT, BUT WOULDN’T REALLY MISS IF IT WAS GONE. Read more

I think it’s just diversifying, followed by marketing. Like if Diesel suddenly caught on and they had to convert half their pumps to meet demand (but this is probably easier, since they’re not taking up pump space on the hopes that the chargers get used). The marketing aspect is simply putting chargers in front of… Read more

The engineer concluded, “This is easily preventable by adding 12 additional layers of belting, in addition to a redundant, real-time RFID thermostatic TPMS system to alert the driver of changes in both pressure and heat to prevent this from occurring. If we can get the resources we need, we can have it on the market… Read more

The Gazis put up a good fight, but in their final decisive loss, they left themselves almost wide open on 6 sides. There’s no recovering from that. Read more
