Also, My girlfriend is in Montreal right now and a friend somehow managed to lock their 2 year old in the car at minus 30° after the NYE party.
A hectic drive home for the spare keys and some explaining to the cops later, the kid was fine.

and why is a two year old awake after a New Years Eve Party, like after midnight, when then poor thing should have been in bed hours ago, finds itself locked in a car, in -30 while friends and family gently caress off to find spare keys and make excuses for cops . loving hell my mind is boggled right now.

Alright, it feels like twitter with all the drama.
Although I agree, I don't know what the gently caress their friends did to make that happen.

But to clarify, as far as I understood, they immediately went for spare keys, called the cops themselves, who showed up and proposed... to get the spare keys.
The kid was sleeping upstairs inside the house before of course, don't worry, no nap time was missed. They were just going home.
My gf had gently caress all to do with it. She can't hold her liquor and fell asleep inside after 3 glasses of wine.

As we all know by now, Dietrich Mateschitz is a loving hella-nazi who is trying to create his own version of Breitbart in Austria. As we also know, the god drat literal Nazi party which is called the Freedom Party in Austria is in a coalition with the ruling party.

And now it has come to my attention that BWT which is Force India's title sponsor is an Austrian company which focuses on water purification. Clearly they're exerting their own Nazi ideologies and industry expertise by buying into an Indian team and purifying the sport of any undesirable ethnic associations.

F1 already has one Nazi team we definitely don't need another. What's next? More Russian drivers???

We are now introduced to the Rostovs who are hosting a party or something. The Rostovs are poor as poo poo, like loving Nicholas Cage has to sell his mansion floor. They've also got a ton of kids, it's like a real loving Mormon church scenario. There's the older chick who I seriously don't know the name of still but marries some German dude later one, Natasha who is in love with doubitski or Dolokov or one of the other million characters starting with a D (This is a serious loving problem and I don't remember who any of these loving characters are), Nicholas who is enlisted in the army or something and in love with Sonya who I think is a cousin or something that lives with them. This party takes place in some special type of room that I don't remember but loving 90% of these parties takes place in these types of rooms, I think their called drawing rooms or something which is absolutely retarded because nobody loving draws in them they just sing and talk about trite poo poo in them. Nicholas and Sonya have some falling out cause shockingly incest between close relatives is not tolerated in societ and Natasha and the one of the Ds has a falling out because he wants to go to war. Then Pierre dances with Sonya or maybe Natasha.

I don't exactly what remember what happens after that tbh. There is some scene or something, I think it introduces Andrew's sister who is a nun, and then after the plot transitions to the Battle of Austerlitz in 1805.

Have they even set a date yet for the 1805 car reveal?

"we feel this custom does not resonate with our brand values and clearly is at odds with modern day societal norms.”


They should change the word brand, because it doesn't resonate with their brand values.
(Etymology: The word, brand, derives from the ancient North Scandinavian term “brandr” meaning "to burn."
It is a reference to the practice of using branding irons to burn a mark into the hides of livestock)


In all seriousness, I kinda get that they wanted to change the grid girl thing.
But there would be a lot more hilarious ways to do it.

Now it just feels like they want to save on employee money so the fat cats upstairs can buy more sex-slaves to work on their Cayman island yachts.

Finally got to see the mclaren doc.
The high-tech, devoid of any form of humanity headquarters in the middle of the British countryside made it feel like a black mirror episode.
It even had technology going horribly wrong.

I loved stoffel's dad. And the fact that stoffel speaks with a very thick west-flemish accent.
Something he manages to hide very well when he speaks english/french. Maybe he shouldn't, anything to give him some personality.
