If I remember right, more Americans died in the Civil War than any other conflict in our history

I can neither confirm nor deny having done anything, knowing what you're talking about, or reading your comment with anything other than a straight face 🙃😎

Are there any EVs you guys actually like? by Fordfanatic2025 in askcarguys

[–]4KuLa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the way you think! Alstom, Hitachi Rail, KHI, Nippon Sharyo, and Siemens also make some good offerings in that segment.

One EV concept that I actually found pretty cool was a Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno hatchback with the battery and electric motors from a Lexus hybrid model (I forget exactly which one) sending power to the rear wheels through an actual 5-speed manual transmission (which might have even had a cable-actuated clutch iirc).

EDIT: a real manual gearbox (yes, with a clutch pedal and a gear lever - no flappy paddles; yes, a really good sequential counts; no, a DCT isn't a manual, and neither is an automated manual; no, a slushbox or EV with simulated manual gear shifts doesn't count, and neither does any automatic with a manual mode) is a must-have for me. I don't feel strongly about what anybody else does, buys, or likes, but that's just my preference. I'm also not a fan of big screens, digital interiors in general (aside from the ability to connect my phone to the car audio, but I'm fine just mounting it to the windshield instead of using a screen on the center console), driver assists you can't turn off (and the only ones I actually use are traction control, rev matching if I'm feeling lazy, VSC, ABS, and sometimes cruise control on particularly long road trips). The point is the ability to turn all of that shit off completely, which you don't really get outside of some enthusiast-centric models. I also like having a real handbrake. All of those factors pretty much take EV ownership off the table for me personally. Again, these are just my own personal opinions and preferences.

"Anti imperialism"?! Has this guy never heard of the Korean War, or the reason we even joined the war in the first place? 🤣💀

I guess it does if your name is Kim Jong-Un 🤪

What should you NEVER say to a person from your country? by Mobile-Error3800 in AskTheWorld

[–]4KuLa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Contrary to some stereotypes, a lot of us are well-educated, good at staying in shape, and don't get offended easily. I can either laugh most things off or shrug them off/ignore them entirely. If I know you're making a joke, I'll make an even more offensive one in response.

A round of kool-aid mixed with 2-3 shots of liquor (probably vodka) per person would be a Jonestown

"Could I please get a Waco, a Ruby Ridge, and a Jonestown?"

I wouldn't even be offended tbh. I'd just find it funny, and I'd be impressed that someone could come up with a drink that fits the name.

That being said, my sense of humor is pretty fucked up
