How do you manage to come up with all these ridiculous videos? You're an endless source of wonder with the randomness of them.

How come some folks with a MT want a "shorter shifter" and some folks with an AT, with paddle shifters, want a "longer shifter" ......??





Yep, another slow day in Puyallup .....

Because clearly, those with an MT have less to compensate for. As we all know, MT>AT

Really though, I find the paddle shifters to be a bit small for me, and shifting in turns/when the wheel isn't centered, it's a bit of an awkward reach. This alleviates it enough that I don't need to worry about placing my hands "just so"

I figured it was along those lines ........

Also, maybe, if you're driving while drunk, ...... it's easier to hit the shifter ......??

Well, AT drivers clearly have small hands, therefore need the paddle extensions to reach easily...

Back in elementary school the comic shop wouldn't let us rent JDM pr0n so we could only get our hands on either anime or car tapes like Best Motoring or Shuto Kousoku Trial on VHS.

Maybe you missed the post where I said that I was coding myself out of a job. What else am I going to do when I'm sitting in front of the servers with a shotgun waiting for the inevitable day that roboSpuds gets out of line.

While the CW (network) usually has too much unnecessary drama and cheese, it was actually quite good for what it was. It wasn't all great and some parts I still hated. But as a comic book based show, with at least 15 different comic book based characters, it was quite a good team-up. They also produced it like a mini-movie, so none of the episodes felt centric to one of the usual shows out of the four.

From what I've heard of Justice League, and know from watching the horrible BvS, I'd say this was better (if you try to ignore the shitty parts of it).
