CAT INTERCEPTOR: Nov 9, 2004; Basically a male Margaret Thatcher

Another chat thread posted in the right month? What the hell is going on you guys

For those that are late;

This is a chat thread for anyone who reads AI. We talk about computers, life, how much alcohol we drink(There was a distinct decrease in alcoholism last month),you loving nerds go on about and and the latest graphic doohickey oh god I'm going to fall asleep, where it's finally getting loving cold in Australia and hot in the asscrack of Satan aka Arizona and Wrar buys the Gorester, Mad Max fan fiction and shipping Furiosa and one of the Wives, COMMIEGIR occasionally slam truth bombs while NM infects our minds and sends us all to the cycle asylum - leading an army of AI cyclists to slaughter hipsters on fixies, WE DONT TALK ABOUT DOGS, cry over the Trumpocopypse, wonder how the gently caress *insert idiot here* hasnt been reprogrammed with a baseball bat, we post cat pics, whatever! Just imagine this as one large garage and we are all pretending to work on some broken rear end Buick Centruy while talking poo poo about anything that comes up. Anyone who is just wandering by, stop and say hello! We don't bite and we're a pretty chilled out bunch of normal people. Except apparently when [list of topics you already know to avoid] comes up. anyway.

Cats are assholes but kittens are goddamn cute and we all need to watch them

IT IS DANGEROUS TO POST ALONE. HERE, TAKE THIS!

POST ALL THE KITTENS YOU GOT

Or post whatever your favorite pet is, lets cute the gently caress out of this chat because we all need cute and cuddly in this dark hosed up world

Edit - Well gently caress. Forgot to call it a chat thread. Moderator?

Okay, I need some help calling bullshit.

I went to a Mazda meet the other night and there was this dude with a MP3 Protege. And it was turboed. And he claimed he had "chassis swapped it for AWD" and it really looked like there was a rear diff under there. What the hell did I see? And no, I got no good pics of it.

Possible, depending on year model. There's often an AWD option that is JDM only that he could have imported the parts for. If you are thinking about the 98-2001one then yes, there was indeed a AWD option

Nah its all good. Most people just dont get outback driving. When your on a road like this

Its no big deal at all doing 100-110kph, even towing (Usually sit on 100 when towing cos otherwise the big girl drinks like an alcoholic at a brewery). the issue is that if your towing an offroad camper trailer and the wheel comes off, shes going to dig in and drag to the side, pull you off the edge of the road and THATS when your in deep poo poo cos once your in that soft sand at speed its game over.

Thats basically the setup, except thats a 200 series not a 100 series like I drive.

Last time I was out vaguely in that direction I found a road like that and just opened the Commodore up. Man that was fun and scary

Conversation that happened today with my 4y/o (his words in italics):
"and this is my crane"
"crane!" yelled in disbelief because he knows cranes are supposed to be big.
"engine crane, to pull out and fix engines"
"can you fix my subaru, the engine is broken and out on the lawn"
"I probably can't but I know someone who can, do you like cats?"
"yes I like cats, does he live on our street"
"no, he's on the internet"
*kid goes on hand and knees and wails "who will fix my subaru?"

Then we played cops and robbers.
No photos because he's too young to give informed consent.

Not gonna lie Ive been having a very rough time lately.... but that homestly is one of the best things Ive read in a long time.

Yeah okay Ill fix his Subaru

Liquid Communism posted:

Our current AG has a hateboner six miles high for drug offenses, and loves mandatory minimums in sentencing. One of his first policy memos was to instruct federal prosecutors to pursue charges that carry a mandatory minimum sentence preferentially. As a Congressman he worked to oppose sentencing reform for non-violent drug crimes for just that reason.

All it takes to make the state laws not matter when pot's still illegal federally is the DOJ putting enough pressure on, say by refusing to distribute funds to state and local police agencies unless they agree to turn over info to the feds so that they can try and prosecute legal pot sellers on such things as violating anti-terrorism banking laws by not keeping their profits in banks where the feds can seize them.

There will be such an enormous pushback if Sessions tries anything like that that he'll be a smoking hole in the far wall. Legal pot is out of the bag and it aint going back in, esp with even federal Republicans getting on the legal pot train.

Speaking of cats, some low-energy troll is trying to get PI rattled up with a thread about keeping cats off his "expensive car." I've already engaged, maybe we could get some sort of game going in there. A game involving cats on cars, perhaps sharing one or two attributes with the previously posted image, if you see my meaning.

Hmmm, well I think I see what you are getting at and responded accordingly.

When I first encountered and had an issue with this person they were very clearly a man. Now they have bright blue hair, pigtails, and wears skirts but has nothing female about them. I know, I work in a comic shop, weird should be common. But few of my customers say poo poo like "You could love me if you just gave me a chance."

Annnnd this is suddenly one of the few times I'm glad I come off as a cold blunt rear end in a top hat on first meetings with strangers.

318is cars (at least in the US) are all of the IS options (LSD, sport suspension, etc) but with a twin cam 4 cylinder, not the old M10. They're a less front heavy 325is minus some torque.

I'm aware of the 318is, it's still slow, not particulary fun and still one of the shittiest BMW's to have existed. The only reason they got fellatioed by the press is RWD. That's it. The fact anyone can desire those heaps of poo poo blows my mind

Are you off your pills again? The E30 318iS is one of only about three four-cylinder 3-series you should ever buy, the others being the 320iS and M3.

It's got the same power as the contemporary M20-engined 320i, but with less weight, that weight saving coming front right near the nose.

And since when aren't they fun?

I'd be on drugs if I said the 318is was good - They are loving snoozefest shitboxes, a bit of lipstick on a pig without the whole go really fast bit.
