You can fuck right off with that increase, boys. It goes aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllll the way back down or I'll cancel and rejoin as a new member. Yeah?

Dear AA, You're not putting my cover up by £150 for the same service. It stays where it is, or you can stick it up your arse. Sincerely, J D Burgess

Car similie: Subaru did the engineering, but got Peugeot to build it. In 1992.

Sharp is infuriating. It either makes psychotically fragile items that sing like angels given their specification and price point (MD-DR7, Optonica RP series turntables), or it makes brick shithouses with fatal technical flaws (701/702 series MD player/recorders).

Bless this thing, it's fucked. Cost so far: £8. Battery is the same as an Aiwa HX30, DR7 was at the bottom of a job lot presumed dead; dock was £1.30 from YA. Luckily Sharp are lazy buggers: the charger from my 722 supplies the right voltage, is the correct polarity, and the barrel plug fits.

Sharp DR7 is my beloved lame MD horse. Everything works, but you have to park it in its dock (else the battery falls out). Hitting the wrong button will eject the disc and turn it off involuntarily. It's knackered, but still has a job (and a really powerful headphone amp).

The renaissance-era French writer, Francois Rabelais recommended the neck of a goose: “I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose.”

Dear [business], Declare the courier you're using at point of purchase. If you don't, and I then find out you're using Evri, I will cancel the order. It's as simple as that. They're miserable to work for and miserable to be a customer of. I will pay extra to have a competent firm deliver.

I like that there are signs of where this is all over town, but none of what the venue looks like

I think I might need a new copy of Audition, the version I have is called Cool Edit.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Re-enacting 'In The Aeroplane OverThe Sea' so well that the then-vice president of Peugeot retweeted it.

Shit the bed: there are currently three Dome SW-1 steering wheels currently for sale on YA! One's green (as per the Zero concept car, the other two are new in box orange (as fitted to the P-2)! These are not the ones fitted to each car; they're period replicas sold by Hayashi!

goddamn the impreza is long overdue a revival

LOL, thanks to the joys of Facebook timeline I was having an ultrasound in Bruges hospital on this day 15 years ago. [pic unrelated]

“God damn them all.”

Key Guernésiais phrases:

Autodoc: Remembering that time I paid ~£150 for a Bosch high pressure fuel pump and they sent a £19 Chinese knockoff. When I complained they demanded I email a photograph of: - My credit card - My passport - The back of the card with the CVV # So a complete ID fraud kit. NEVER BUY FROM AUTODOC

Cheeky sods: price with a UK IP vs price with a .jp IP:

Are Autodoc still OK to use? They use EVRI, which doesn't fill me with confidence.

Cunts. Utter, utter cunts.

PETERBOROUGH DISPATCH: OUR RESPONSE Folks, we need to get Jesse Watters and Stephen Miller together.

You can't look away from the USA, currently. Appalling, appalling stuff.

Right. And if the Greenlanders and the Danes tell you to fuck off - which I would - what then? America was not a bully. At least, when it was founded. Why did they take our worst ideas? As ever, it's our fault.

for anyone seeking just a spark of joy today anywhere on planet earth, Rocket Bunny just debuted an Choro-Q R32 kit for a Suzuki Twin for TAS 2026 and, well, it’s sort of incredible and literally perfect www.instagram.com/p/DTO1z7rgXS...

Anybody who seriously thinks that what cities need is the same traffic but fifty feet up in the air needs to be exiled to a mud hut to subsist on turnips and to think about what a fucking idiot they are.

It's funny because AI data centres can burn and get demolished in the same way buildings always have been/done

This is not who we are. I became an ICE agent because I truly believed in the value of getting a $50,000 signing bonus to violently assault and terrorize anyone I wanted while never getting in trouble for anything. Being held accountable conflicts strongly with my deeply-held personal beliefs

Speedy service from J&R CV joints, hey.

OSF CV joint guffed on SVX. Easier to buy the driveshaft complete. Bought two on a blinding deal 8pm last night.

I'm never going to listen to or pay money for AI slop music. This fucking bubble needs to burst, and AI needs to fuck all the way off.

OneDrive here: you've told me to back up DOC files, but I've ignored that and am instead sending the CPU into meltdown copying a 1TB desktop directory to the 2gb cloud. Fuck you, you're out of space. I've lost your docs. No saving to desktop, because reasons. What do you mean, 'fuck off'?
