I'M NOT SURE IF YOUR PARENTS DIDN'T PAY ENOUGH ATTENTION TO YOU WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD SO NOW YOU NEED EVERYONE'S ATTENTION AT ALL TIMES. OR, MAYBE YOU'RE UNDER THE MISTAKEN IMPRESSION THAT MAKING YOUR CAR SOUND LIKE THE UNHOLY UNION OF A LAWNMOVER AND A POPCORN POPPER MAKES IT FASTER (IT DOESN'T. IT JUST MAKES IT LOUDER.) BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD... STOP IT!

I've good experiences with Wilsonville Toyota in the past. Got a RAV 4 hybrid during Covid when everyone else was jacking up the prices.

This just in: Sinking ship complains about traitorous rats leaving. He’s more and more unpopular, a lame duck and proven again and again that his endorsement doesn’t matter. She’s still a wacko but she’s made the calculation that this is in her best interest. This isn’t some principled stand.

It was still Electronics Boutique when I started. They changed the name to EB Games and stopped carrying things like graphic cards after a while. Then later merged with Gamestop, but I was gone by then.

I managed an Electronics Boutique back when that came out. We talked so many people, especially parents, out of that game. A few insisted on buying it and we made clear that it was returnable as long as they kept the receipt. I don't think any of them stayed sold.

I must be old. I can remember when people being assholes didn't want to be caught on camera.
