Truth in advertising!

How I just wish this atrocity wasn’t made in the Austin area, or closer to Bastrop. Either way, it’s the ugliest and most impractical piece of crap since the El Camino or DeLorean and with less horsepower. You can find clips … Continue reading

Ferrari: Must See

Several years ago, there was the hit movie Ford v. Ferrari, I liked it but I was still cheering for Ferrari because Ford has always (and still does) made shit cars with the horrible DNA of its founder in them. Henry … Continue reading

The weird part is that it didn’t come with any batteries

And if you must know, I didn’t receive any LEGO sets for Christmas from Jennifer or any member of her family. They think I have too many. NEVER!

It doesn’t matter if it’s fake…

I can see Jay Leno adding this hilariously awful vehicle to his collection. I just can’t see how Tesla claims this crudely TRON-like monstrosity is a truck. Even the car Homer made that destroyed his brother’s car company is a … Continue reading

Dang! The El Camino of Pacers?

It’s designs like these which makes me miss American Motors Corporation! My parents used to have an AMC Hornet Sportabout (station wagon). In addition to its rather weird colors, it was an easy to spot car alongside their legacy from … Continue reading

Cars have “extra money” sensors!

The remainder of my RSU money pulled through this morning allowing me to buy a new portable! Oh this MacBook Air 2020 that took over as my primary for posting to Picayune and running my finances has been great, especially after … Continue reading

Busy day with my car

Scheduled this whole day which is probably why Mr. Cook said, oh, I’ll do my annual Fall announcements then! No, I had no clue when he chooses those dates, nor the products, it’s life in a call center, you’re the … Continue reading

Spotted in Austin, around Parmer Lane

Odd to see this on a Mitsubishi. I’d say it’s more appropriate for the underwhelming Chevy Aveo or Kia, as Blaine Capatch’s joke ad campaign goes, “This rules look-up break is brought to you by Kia! Kia…beats walking.” In all … Continue reading

More on last weekend’s drift racing incident

Last Saturday, allegedly a bunch of street racers took over the intersection around South Lamar and Barton Creek Road. Some people thought it was advanced plug for SXSW and/or what will hopefully the last Fast & Furious movie; never seen, don’t … Continue reading

Not a good comparison today

Let’s get all the easy jokes out of the way! That burning sensation? It’s the batteries igniting not gonorrhea, so it’s worse! If you activate auto-pee, you’ll stop midstream for no reason or worse, lose control and whiz all over … Continue reading

Jennifer’s car was stolen again…but rescued in five hours!

Yes, again. Now before you just sit there in disbelief, read on, there’s a happy ending as per the headline regarding yesterday’s “fun.” Firstly, the circumstances were very different. It wasn’t professionals yanking her Nissan Rogue from our driveway to … Continue reading

Looking for ‘Lot Sharks?

I’m guessing this is Round Rock’s solution to parking-lot crime at the outlet mall, having a cop sitting up there like he’s Sheriff Brody watching for sharks looking for thugs going after shoppers’ discounted Crocs.

Jennifer’s new car arrived!

What a thrill too, the Carvana deliver guy was early so I didn’t miss out on any serious amount of work. I’m always impressed by the power of hydraulics lifting and lowering something so heavy. I got to give the … Continue reading

Jennifer will have a new car via Carvana soon

Like most American households, we need two vehicles which is shitty for the planet yet represents how crappy life is here. If you don’t have a car at all, you’re a third-class citizen unless you live in NYC, maybe Boston … Continue reading

Jennifer’s car has been stolen

The reason why my Nichelle Nichols obit precedes this is that I scheduled it via WordPress and our recent adventure was realized this morning. I decided to drive Jennifer to work because she injured her foot yesterday (a nasty cut, it’s … Continue reading
