Helpful in showing people that the vast sea of red in the 2016 county-level electoral map doesn't mean it was in any way a blowout

I signed up for the beta back in June but nothing ever came of it. Do I just need to keep waiting?

[edit] never mind, I figured things out

While I've heard variations, like "breet" and "gggweh", they are basically the same

Honestly, I don't even care if that's the case. Cars are becoming more like living rooms on wheels and less engaging overall (less about driving and more about being driven), so I don't even care what I drive when the time comes, so long as it isn't a piece of garbage with a shoddily-built interior. Hell, I'd rather just not have a car at all at that point, but we don't have the infrastructure here (in the US) for that.

How does any of this not violate the first amendment?

It's bad enough dealing with crippling depression in a small town, where everyone's going to tell you that A: your condition is a moral failure rather than an illness with physiological underpinnings, B: religion is the answer to your condition, C: (for males, anyway) your condition makes you weak and effeminate, or D: a combination of the above or more likely all of them. Adding those things on top of it is a recipe for suicide.

This could still be an Ohio meme

God, how many "special" editions did Bugatti make of the Veyron? When everything is special, nothing is special.

Nor can there be any remakes until after he’s dead. We need to keep him safe.

That’s Ohio Valley style for you. We’ve got a place here in Akron called DiCarlo’s, which originated in Steubenville and has other locations in Pittsburgh and in Wheeling, WV, and was where the style was invented. The crust and sauce are baked first, then the rest of the toppings go on so the cheese is only beginning to melt when it’s served. It’s fine I guess, whatever, but definitely not my first choice (go go Detroit style)
