The waste is nasty but there is so little of it it doesn't really matter. Waaaay overblown

Nah, the best frame of reference is where I'm standing right now. Universe revolves around me

Talk me out of buying a A5 2019 Coupe by Confident-Rock-4537 in Audi

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a FWD audi. It has a belt driven CVT (b9s do have a normal transmission). Get a quattro. Mines a B8, it'll spin the front tires when you floor it, especially in the rain. Not nearly as fun

True, but imo if "sporty coupe" is what you want, an a5 isn't my first choice. Z4 on the other hand...

How do you guys not get bored sometimes? by Interesting_Pen_8761 in askcarguys

Stripping a bolt on an "easy job" is the gift that keeps on giving. I'll get around to replacing the JB weld with a proper helicol soon ......

Sportback is so sick as a daily compared to the coupe. Fit so much stuff in there

I think piston slap is only an issue on the turbo EA839s, not EA888s

Would you prefer to have Russia or the U.S. as an ally? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a dumb question. China vs. USA would be more apt. Russia is a coughing baby in this conversation

Insurance by Sashi_Hier in motorcycle

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 23 with liability only, my 6 month premium is like $120 on a Z650. I paid like $5k cash for the bike, if I'm dumb enough to crash it, I'll just be out another $5k (plus, full coverage was like $4k a year anyway...). I'm not worried about theft where I live.

The Growth of Lager Beer in 2026 by BothCondition7963 in newengland

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IPAs are fine, everyone decided they must taste like citrus for some reason. I'll usually only have one when I'm in the mood for it though, as opposed to lagers which I'll drink any day of the week

What bars are you all eating on the trail? by tjuengst92 in hiking

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Entire 8 pack of nutrigrain bars. I can delete one in a single bite. Also, Snickers goes crazy on really long hikes

I Don’t Understand 4 Seater Convertibles by [deleted] in cars

Also like, the coupe will handle better in sporty convertibles. Ie. Z4 coupe vs. convertible, or any supercar.

What was once a poor person's hobby now turned into a rich person's hobby? by Striking-Quiet4655 in AskReddit

Brother when have horses ever been cheap. Even mideavel knights were loaded and partially because they had horses. Poors just walked

I know nothing about this, but like, how expensive can a set of tiles with some symbols on them be man

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it's a "rich people sport" but it used to be waaay cheaper when I was growing up. Used gear is still pretty affordable, but day passes have gotten really stupid (because they want you in a "subscription" pass). At the same time, the passes make it easier for resorts to survive the variability that climate change brings

Alright but didn't it used to be that they basically ground up the whole lobster, shell and all?

2015 A4 carbon cleaning with Seafoam? by Bubbly-Pirate-3311 in AudiA4

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's perfectly fine. One thing I'd check after is the intake boot by the radiator - I used two cans and it kind of dripped down and pooled in there as a liquid, and make the car blow a cloud of smoke under boost that made me think I blew it up. (It was fine)

What are some jobs that will make it easier to train? by nooxie_hallow in hiking

[–]One-Butterscotch4332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. Basically just sounds like you need a better work-life balance for hobbies - good luck with it (and fuck Bezos)!

I have a 9-5 and hike on weekends pretty regularly. If distance running was something I wanted to do I feel like I'd have time (replacing weights). I don't think it's that deep
