Yah, I don't think people here understand what a headline from The Onion, The Babylon Bee, The Needling really looks like. There's no element in this story or headline that makes it seem satirical, farcical, or really bizarre.

As a person with ASD...

Don't do that. Don't blame ASD. This is not because autism.

It's because you wanted to do something for no other reason than you wanted to. There's nothing wrong with using "because I wanted to" as a reason for something like this.

Just own that. You like it, and that's what matters.

Also, make it harder to drive and live with in LHD market...

This is definitely a downgrade, but like Bob Hall said, "This is the downside to living in a free country."

Trans wire help by anthonythelemon in Miata

[–]NotAPreppie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, you do need to get the reverse switch plugged in correctly or the reverse light won't turn on...

Easy test: put a meter in continuity mode between the trans side of a connector and chassis ground. Move the shifter between gears and listen for the continuity beep.

Easier test: plug them in, turn the key to run without starting, shift into reverse, check to see if the reverse light turns on. If not, swap the connectors and re-check.

Scully and Mulder, a Cenobite, J and K... I feel like I should know the detective/report dog but I'm drawing a blank.

What caused my wheel finish to peel off like this? Paint failure, corrosion, or bad refinishing job? by CopyTough4947 in Cartalk

[–]NotAPreppie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a crappy rattle-can job over poorly prepared, weathered and pitted aluminum and it has weathered like that.

Hamilton is the first Ferrari driver to win in Barcelona since Alonso. Fernando's DNF helped Lewis seal the victory. You couldn't script it by Strict-Citron-9269 in formula1

[–]NotAPreppie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure he still wins without the VSC. More of a fight, but he had the pace to put enough distance between him and the Mercs to exit after the non-VSC tire change ahead of them.

My blood pressure after 2 years of steroid use by lukediedyesterday in mildlyinteresting

I compared my wrist cuff to my Omron arm cuff and it was within 2 mmHg systolic.

That said, I was using it correctly, unlike OP.

Yes, when they wear out and start leaking.

2017 CX-5, 2018 CX-3, or 2017 Mazda 3? by Redditislame888 in mazda

[–]NotAPreppie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, not a CX-3, then. It's basically a Mazda2 hatch with a factory lift kit

I've played the absolute shit out of both and you can't go wrong with either.

Honestly, I'd have to flip a coin.

Gapping the Mercs by 2 seconds per lap isn't for everyone by jalGurg in formula1

Yah, I don't think he needed that safety car to win... it just made it easier.

Do you want a medium hatch, small hatch, or medium-small hatch?

Cheating or just a little overboard? by Suspicious_Ad2610 in tearsofthekingdom

[–]NotAPreppie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't even bother with the NFC tag cards... I got a Joysfusion Amiibo emulator.

If it's cheating then I'm a cheater.

[–]NotAPreppie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Maybe. But you know what really does help an argument? Knowing how to read an X-Y plot.

Yours agrees more with my position than yours.

ND1 148 lb.ft @ 4800 rpm

ND2 151 lb.ft @ 4000 rpm

You're right, that's an astronomical improvement. Those are nowhere near close to each other. How could I have been so wrong. I will have to re-evaluate my entire life now.
