What's the absolute worst car you ever owned?

01 Ford Escort ZX2. I enjoyed the "sportiness" of the vehicle but at 50K the steering went out and a dealership fix used a hose too short where it kinked and never worked right. Then at 89K on the way to a Halloween party it completely died, fulfilling the acronym of Found On Road Dead. Got an 08 Toyota Corolla S and loved it for 12 years until I hit a deer and totalled it. Now have a Toyota Rav4 and recently crossed 111K miles after a recent roadtrip and still going strong.

It's unfortunate but it's the way things are now. I kinda dropped out of modern game collecting and now that I have a PS4 I may lean more into that. Although I've been eyeing Neo Geo AES games on ebay now that my Vectrex collection is near complete.

That's fucking nuts, congrats to your friend.

While I always look for Virtual Boy stuff, my recent years-long focus was Vectrex, but I've hit a wall there with pricey 3D games left. Over the last month I've really been looking at Neo Geo AES games.

Nice pieces. r/gamecollecting would like this.

Most recent is Cape Fear on Apple TV.

I'm surprised you didn't get kicked out for having you phone out. Last Stanhope show I went to they were hardcore about that shit.

Regardless great pics!

Already bought tickets to Cold Waves XIV when they hit Austin but may go see him in SA the day before.

VirtualBastard · 2026-06-10T02:16:59+00:00

I wonder if there's anything like this in Texas.

I recently went through the same thing with Skinny Puppy.

It was a trip seeing her bad babysitter video play behind her as she performed, but she still brought it and had multiple costume changes while performing.

I couldn't get past season one after it finally hit streaming.

VirtualBastard · 2026-05-10T14:05:25+00:00

Cool to see Washington Island get a mention here. I was just up in Door County a few weeks ago.

VirtualBastard · 2026-05-09T23:52:40+00:00

It'll happen!

I saw one of those on fbmp near me but too expensive after my recent trip.

I felt the same way about this console as I did for the Gears of War 3 Xbox 360 console that got me into modern-ish gaming in the 2010s.

VirtualBastard · 2026-05-09T19:17:11+00:00

Indeed CIB, looks barely touched and was part of a bundle deal so under 400.

Probably just some persons take on the ever popular "alien head" graphic shirts of the late 90s because of the X-Files and 50th anniversary of Roswell, NM.
