Oh, this sounds like a ridiculously easy case to win. So where is that case where someone had a car that was being sold in an illegal manner and they won? Just one, anywhere in the world. And not the one about the VW emissions scandal. Most diesel vehicle drivers don't really care about emissions, and no one was paying less for a non-EPA qualifying option.

I find this irritating, and if this is the worst trolls were doing, life would be better.

It also means they can build fewer types of engine for the models they make, requiring less tooling, less spare parts, etc. I'm not sure if that is enough to balance the environmental cost of making slightly bigger motors, but a number of companies have come to the conclusion that it's cheaper than having more engine options.

My kids didn't see an ad connected to videos until the youngest was about 7 (outside of a movie theater, at least). When they first saw them, they were flabbergasted about what they were or why people would just sit there watching them, and absolutely refuse to put up with them. I'd say they are better off seeing how things could be, so when they see how things are now they recognize how utter shit it is.

Me too, when the meds haven't worn off.

Just kidding, I haven't been on meds for ^years^.

Assuming it's just a joke is a bit of a take.

The whole meta because he was in so many movies makes it required to be on the list, imo.

Crabs in a bucket.

Some people, and dogs, are more attractive than others. This is an objective fact. Some people, and dogs, make the world a worse place and therefore make it a better place when they die. This is more subjective, but most people would agree with that statement, if not who would qualify. As for my grandfather's dog, the qualities that caused it to make the world a worse place were not its physical features. I rarely comment on people's looks because I think that's generally the least important thing about people.

Having played it, it works pretty well. I would be happier if more games with 6 DoF used the same control scheme on the Deck, but that's my biggest concern.

And gets killed a few million times. (That number can be as high as you need it to be.)

Is there a movie where he (Wahlberg) doesn't play "Jersey boy who made good"? I feel like it's always the same character with a different job facing a different crisis.
