Tell you what we will split it down the middle. You can have the northern hemisphere and I will take the southern!

Only if you think of north and south as up and down which of course they really aren't as there is no perspective in space to say which is which.
Cool! This is what you get (my laneway almost exactly one year ago):

Ahh... Wrong across the middle. I was thinking cutting through the equator. You still get north, me south. Not an east/west division.

No high-fives just yet. You still have to figure out who gets which half.

I'm ok with the leftovers.

I agree equator but if you read my original proposal I said I get the south!
I am sick of the north and would like to be warm for more then 5 months a year.
You already agreed without reading the fine print so the deal stands.
I think we can at least give Ultra Zanzibar or something.

Will need some minor intake conversions of course.

Well if you hit escape velocity and head back to earth make sure you come down on my half because I am pretty sure Aussies don't know how to drink beer!

Oh Ya sad about that car in Texas isn't it!

Would this be a good or bad example of thread derailment?
Ahhh, the semantic and philosophical ramifications makes me speechless. Which is irrelevant given that I am posting in a forum.

"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears*
I come to bury a car wreck in Texas, not to recondition same;
The turboing that men do to them them,
The good is oft interred with their $700 dampers"

Apologies to Shakespeare.




*Speak up!! I can't hear you!!

Yeah it sucks that one of the few in existence has been crashed, but what's the difference between getting totaled and sitting under a car cover for the next 50 years? Neither will be getting any use anyway. And this is Mclaren we're talking about. They repaired Rowan Atkinson's F1 after he practically tore it in half. They'll probably rebuild this one too.

The real news story here is "Man Drives P1". When was the last time you saw a LaFerrari, Veneno, or any other hypercar being actually driven?
I'm not jealous in the slightest. Im just upset that car was driven poorly and won't be driven again because of his careless mistakes. Idgaf about the guy, I care about the car
