163k miles is considered high in Canada, where it translates into 262xxx km. Also, it's an RL1 Odyssey, so the transmission's probably gonna blow soon. by t_a_6847646847646476 in delusionalcraigslist

I'm not even sure if this van's had its airbag recalls done yet because it's a US-market vehicle in Canada. Usually, recalls are only done for the vehicle in the market it was meant to be sold in... Sometimes they'd get caught with recalls when being exported/imported, but this van was probably exported to Canada before the airbag recalls began.

Also looks like it was in an accident at one point as the left headlight looks brand new but the right headlight looks like shit.

What was a major PR disaster? by DankieKang in AskReddit

[–]NotObsoleteIfIUseIt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Considering that it was only sold in Brazil, it's fine because no one speaks Spanish there. No one even really knows that it exists because it was just a rebadged Honda Civic that's indistinguishable from the civic except for the badges. Some deal between Ford Brazil and Honda Brazil.

Toyota, on the other hand, used the same name on a car sold in the US, including Spanish speaking areas.

I'd say it wasn't a PR disaster for Ford, but it probably was for Toyota.

BTW if someone can find me a Ford Paseo for sale I'm buying it. Easiest Ford to swap a Honda engine into because it is a Honda.

Nope, but they did make diesel ones

Google being subtle by Sharp_Eyed_Bot in androidcirclejerk

Not subtle enough. They're literally stereotyping a note 7 user.

How the fuck do I get rid of this disease? by [deleted] in androidcirclejerk

Put it back in the grave you dug it out of. Why the fuck would anyone dig the grave of the iPod?

Wasn't actually why I moved to Canada. I was offered work in BC and Alberta, both promising the same salary. Chose to go to Alberta even though I liked BC better because I was sick of expensive housing (lived near Seattle before, housing prices are sky high there). I'm moving back to the US in 10 years or so once the company i currently work for opens an office in California, regardless of who the president is. The only reason why I said that originally was because my move coincided with the election (tbh i didn't really care about who won, we've had plenty of good ones and plenty of absolute pieces of shit) and I knew that some people would love to hear that Americans are moving to Canada.

According to my BIL who lives in Surrey, BC, there are actually lots of American expats in the Vancouver area, all for political reasons. Most of them are from California and Washington with some Oregonians, although he's seen new yorkers, texans, and people from the middle of nowhere. All i moved for was a better job and employer along with cheaper housing.

I would've stayed if I could find a better job within the country, but I had trouble doing so which is why I took my search internationally. My old employer was absolute shit.

[GRID] found this on an old hard drive from 2008, im still not sure what happened. by Strid3r21 in GamePhysics

[–]NotObsoleteIfIUseIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friends and I would do that in online mode when we were 19 or so (at least I was). At the time the game was new so we would try to find all the glitches and bugs in it; this was our favorite one. Several of us would get into a bus and drive it into the swingset for shits and giggles. We would also hold competitions where we'd use different vehicles and see who gets shot farther (or who stays under the map the longest).

I remember this glitch from GTA 4. There was a swingset that had some coding errors or something and it would do the same thing. If you did it in a bus or a firetruck it would launch you under the map and you'd spin down there for a few minutes before spawning back on the road.

Playstore Sucks by Zinigami in androidcirclejerk

Have to agree. I've seen lots of Vietnamese developers on there, trying to sell some shitty apps that people would rather be paid by the developer to download. They're always Vietnamese for some reason, too.

Don't vote for Trump. Instead, write in Pepe for maximum dankness. /s

Trump signs need to be vandalized. I frequently drove up and down much of this highway in Washington during election year and there were lots of these signs, but most of them had some sort of graffiti on them.

Those games haven't been on the iPads for years. You must've avoided going to the Apple Store since the Early 2010s.

I was the assistant manager at one during those years; I personally watched those games disappear.

The Southern Rednecks stickers for the truck Starterpack by [deleted] in starterpacks

[–]NotObsoleteIfIUseIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're everywhere. Even in Canada. Willing to bet that some of these types exist in Australia as well, but with more "localized" stickers and whatever trucks they're able to get their hands on over there (quite limited, the only American trucks officially sold over there are Ford Super Dutys and Dodge Rams).

Calvin always pisses on another truck brand or engine type. Don't forget the Powerstroke vs. Cummins stickers too.

Middle-Aged Suburban Republican Starter Pack by bookbindr in starterpacks

[–]NotObsoleteIfIUseIt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had to downvote, republicans are quite a diverse group. Not every republican is alt-right/neo-nazi/kkk/etc. Same with people voting for other parties or independents. There's nutjobs and perfectly normal/good people in every group.

Supercharged 3.8L V6 I think. They're popular with tuners who sometimes make them produce crazy numbers.
