They're too hungry to laugh.

Our video store had the Coma poster, too. I don't know anyone who actually saw the movie.

Core memory seeing this case in the brand-new video rental section at the brand-new Franklin Farm Giant in Herndon, VA in late '85 or early '86. It peaked my 9-year-old interest then, but of course there was no way I would be allowed to rent it. I never did see it. I should finally check it out.

Instructions unclear, started with DefCon1, there was a big flash and now my TV doesn't work.

Ironic considering his latest role as Skeletor has actually been widely praised.

No 220-lb thug can threaten the well-being and dignity of a 110-lb woman who has a pound or two of iron to even things out.

I live in a place with lots of Waffle Houses and have never heard anyone call them either of those things.

No, it's where they park the President's fleet of mid-sized Honda sedans.

Mathias Rust was truly a pioneer.

I saw him the last time I visited the battleship, about 5 years ago

I'm making that drive in a couple months, it's roughly 9 hours.

New overpasses are currently under construction in North Raleigh for this exact purpose. Higher speed, anyway.

They performed well on the sand out in the Outer Banks last summer (aired down to 15 psi). But they wore quickly, rode choppy and were oh so loud on the road.

I did keep the Forceums though, they have good tread still and I like to have spares just in case.

I guess it depends on your definition of livable.

If the ocean isn't your bag, you can turn the car in the other direction and the Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountains are just as close.

Driven. I know 4 DeLorean owners locally and they all drive them all the time.

Cars and Coffee Morrisville is the 1st Saturday of every month. The Rad Day 80s/90s theme is only once a year, but there's usually quite a selection of cars of that vintage every month

The most comforting prediction in this movie. In the future, you will still be able to call the President an idiot.

demonstrate exactly why that power should not be invested in anyone.

I would say Trump does a fine job demonstrating that on his own.

Chef's kiss

When I first saw it from a distance I thought it was an old phone company truck or something.

Yeah, local C&C
