Not all Hyundais (or older cars) are the same. I get the spirit, but while my 17 year old Santa Fe has a lot of miles on it, I'd rather the assholes just stay away so I don't have to go through the experience of a wreck, insurance, and possible new car payments on a newer vehicle that I have to relearn all the quirks. So I let the idiots fight each other and watch from afar as much as possible, which includes being a "beta" driver. But that's what they taught us, right? Defensive driving?

They are the more progressive state. So imagine how other states are in regards to caring much.
There were a number of books back then like that (mysteries and such), with the idea that you only revealed the answers to things you couldn't figure out.
As for the game itself, the one part that I have a continued memory about is where you could press the button labeled "Do Not Press". Only doing it a few times gave you the same "nothing happens" message, but being persistent got a different one. Infocom games were so great and full of humor, even the non-Douglas Adams ones.
The greatest generation birthed the boomers, who did not live up to their parents' reputation or expectation.
They're all going to you. Do you have an unusual amount of single socks too?
I'm with him on the point, but that's a hell of a low bar to say they're "safer". I'd at least say "much safer", or state the risk factor to the kid goes up dramatically with those other groups compared to a stranger in drag.
I've heard one (of many) caveats in buying an English-made car is the sizes of nuts and bolts when working on it.
Fact: the most often lost socket is a 10mm.
Just an accidental brake malfunction. A Mac and Me moment.
It's possible we'd be in a better situation now. Lots of obvious things like not tossing out known facts about terrorism efforts and having a climate change awareness leadership. There's much that would still be the same, like the system of consumerism that is the core of much of our problems. One person in a limited power seat can't fix that, I'm not sure anything can outside of failure of the system itself. But I do think we would have at least avoided that one historic turning point that revved back up the military drive of the US. Even GWB's administration was looking into ways of reducing the military into smaller, more mobile parts until suddenly we went into revenge mode. Or useful crisis mode.
WinME was that OS I ripped off a brand new laptop and replaced with 98SE so it would function correctly. When it crashes and hangs right out of the box...
It's true that I haven't yet seen temperatures as low as some of the worst winters I've experienced in the Southeast. I remember as a kid a few bad ones that shut things down for a week or more, destroyed lots of trees and property with ice buildup, etc. What makes it far worse than just cold is the wind caused from the Arctic blasts (driving storm fronts), as well as the higher humidity from more moisture in the air in general. Add to that the regularity of these Arctic temperature shifts every year now since the jet stream is toast from the reduction of the difference between the latitude temperatures as the Arctic warms.
I am getting tired of some of these Youtube weather channels with their "this is a bad one" videos every week. They are bad, but don't act like it's not "normal" now. I guess "yet another wave of cold/hot" doesn't get clicks.
