It's sad, hatchbacks are still viable but no one makes them anymore

They're still pretty much standard in Europe, so someone's definitely making them!

You can definitely still get hatchbacks in the US. Buddy of mine just bought a 2016 Subaru WRX hatchy, and I know the Civic at least still comes in a hatchback version.

wtf there's tons of hatchback models sold in the US (not that I approve) but VW makes two separate hatchbacks, Fiats are now available in the US, MINI Cooper has multiple models, etc. pretty much every brand makes one

As far as I can see a hot hatch is just a hatchback with performance specs, in which case the Focus RS, Civic SI and WRX STI all fit that bill

Plus whatever that performance model of the Fiat 500 is called

e: also anything I didn't mention on this list:

Yeah, as both me and Gutbomb literally just concluded.

Doesn't change the fact that there are a bunch of other hot hatches currently being produced.

e: not to mention 2015/2016 were the first years they didn't do a hatchback WRX and there's been a lot of backlash so clearly the market still exists

to bring this back around to the internet relics, I remember a good blog/website circa 2002 or so that used to just post pictures of ricer cars (around when the first Fast & Furious was huge) that would just absolutely tear them up for how idiotic some of modifications were. I don't know if it was popular or not :/

Does this ring any bells? Is there any place I can go and laugh at tuners nowadays?

Coke Music was that game that was like Habbo Hotel wasn't it? I remember there were rooms where you would get in a line that went around the room. When you got to the front, you were allowed to play the song you made and then everyone would thumbs up it or whatever and you'd get in game money. It was pretty fun.

Yeah. It was also considerably less ugly than Habbo. I did go into Habbo and tried to rage kids from overseas about the Iraq War, oops.

My friend used to play with Habbo a lot. I had no clue what it was until all the 4chan griefing ten or so years ago.

Neopets never get deleted. They never die. They're still there, starving, waiting for you to come back online and feed them.

If something like Coke Music still existed, I'd probably play it to kill some time. Seems like it would be a good phone game.

I was in Patriotic Nigras from the start in 2006 to some time in 2009. Then I decided I should probably grow up because while griefkng broken people in Second Life is fun it's also really time consuming.

Checked in on Second Life happenings recently and this one crazy bitch still thinks Linden Labs freated PN to persecute her.

I spent hours playing Newgrounds games in the early 2000s. Probably because I was a young, and didn't have a job that would afford me real games on a consistent basis. Also there was the fact that they were usually trying to be edgy and I liked that. I think I first found mu way there to see the Teletubby assassin game, which seemed leaps and bounds above any of the various Kill Barney games.

I wonder what's going to happen to all that stuff with Flash dying out?

Anyone else do alien adoption agency? It was pretty fun until you wander into the PVP area and then your alien is essentially dead forever because someone will instantly kill you when your alien resets at the end of the day.
