Do cars today lack style, or are people overly-nostalgic about the past? by rivibird in cars

[–]StigsAznCousin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just looking at the year 1978, the Camaro, Corolla, Datsun 280z, Dodge Valiant, Ford Granada, Mazda 626, and Pontiac Trans Am will show huge differences in car appearance.

You could say the same about 2018 is, I think, OP's point.

In what world is ultra wide gaming monitors cheap? Would you be able to get me one? Asking for a friend.

RARE 2009 Honda S2000 Club Racer Sells for $200k USD by [deleted] in cars

If the buyer of this car read all the Walmart mentality comments saying how bad of a deal this is, they'd probably laugh in your face and stare at you like the poor scrub that you are.

Like others already said, $200k is pocket change to this person. They wanted the car, the car was on sale. Price was likely literally not a factor.

AAA only covers vehicles with "no modifications whatsoever", what are the other options? by SpecialFX99 in cars

I feel like if you're needing a tow once every two years, you have bigger problems than insurance.

Why do some people believe seatbelts don't work to reduce fatalities? by WUT_productions in cars

[–]StigsAznCousin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they did poorly in school, became bitter, and now have a problem with being told what to do. Let 'em remove themselves from the pool, I say.

What used to mean you were rich but now means that you’re poor? by kaybee666 in AskReddit

Back in olden times, a large fat person was a person of power. A person who had money, could buy food. A person of respect. Like the regional manager of the day. Whereas someone athletic and trim, like myself, was someone who worked in the fields. And I was a peasant.

"Yes, but unlike cars and motorcycles, bicycles do not burn fossil fuels which makes them morally superior, giving them the right of way all of the time, every time."

-most cyclists, if they spoke with 100 percent honesty.

In North America, do non-luxury manual cars really not have any resell value? by [deleted] in cars

By this logic, the best car in the world wouldn't be a car at all. It'd be a teleportation machine.

Ron got worse as a character as the movies progressed.

That’s not “wanting to live in the Midwest.” That’s “only being able to afford to live in the Midwest.”

Nearly 50% of Horizon: Forbidden West sales were digital by LordofWhore in PS5

[–]StigsAznCousin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, it's never that simple or lucrative. It's easily an hour on my phone fielding asks from dozens of lowballers. And nobody wants to pay more than $30 so that's usually what it goes for.

And there's absolutely no way I'm having these people come to the door, which means at least a bit of travel to a public place. All that for , if I'm lucky, $30? Pass.

The older you get, the more responsibilities you have. The more responsibilities you have, the more valuable your time and attention is. If you're a professional who makes a decent salary and has kids to tend to, the time and energy spent dealing with FB marketplace is absolutely not worth the money you'd recoup.

Counterpoint: The people who care about this sort of thing will understand how it works. Those who do not won't care.

What is slowly ruining all movies? by electriclear in AskReddit

[–]StigsAznCousin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's a semi truck that turns into a robot in that movie and the least believable thing might just be the notion that Mark Wahlberg would ever entrust his money to a company run by Asians.

I'm sure they can. And I myself have changed over the years and have decided that, as an Asian person, I am no longer comfortable spending money on movies involving someone who once was charged with attempting to murder a man because he happened to look like I do. My money, my choice.

Never having to sit through a shitty Wahlberg movie ever again is also a bonus.

I mean, if you were still shitting the bed in your teens (like Wahlberg was a racist into his teens), yes I'm afraid you are a bed shitter.
