For what it is worth, there is nothing wrong with an electric chainsaw whatsoever. In my garage, at this moment, I have an ancient Power Mac 6, some shitty Poulan thing that works better than it ought to, a nice Stihl one, and a little red electric Fisher-Price looking Homelite. $50 at Home depot.

I've been on hiring committees in two different organizations, that have used this stupid question, and the hiring managers each wanted two completely different responses. One wanted the interviewer to be honest and do the "I've struggled with x but have improved it" thing and the other pilloried someone for doing… Read more

Plenty of parts availability. The Saab Parts part of the company is still healthy and in business, and parts are being made in many cases. If you have a new 9-5, ah, that's not a good situation, otherwise, you're OK. Third-party mfg or aftermarket parts abound. Maintenance is like any other car - a local indie car… Read more

Ah god. I'd let one of those back over my foot just to get close to it. Read more

As someone who is better than average at everything, I was wondering if there was anything here that I would find useful or compelling, and then I realized that just watching the rest of you down there would be entertainment enough. Great stuff. Read more

Oh my god. This is amazing. Read more

Just bought a 1992 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible for myself for Christmas- Scarab green, 24 spoke alloys. Good gearbox, good engine, good interior, good top, bad, bad frame. Perfect. Cannot wait to dismantle it and build a little stockpile for my summer beater that has bad top and bad interior and excels at carrying…

Who on earth does your work for you?! $2100 for a 900T engine and gearbox not installed? I've yet pay over $600 for an engine and gearbox together. The engines (always turbo) were usually thrown in for, like, $50, because the seller couldn't be bothered to separate it from the gearbox, and it's (almost) never the… Read more

I like where your head is at but alas, my squirrel-catching skills are, uh, a little squirrely these days. I think perhaps I'll bring in a Coleman cooler filled with nightcrawlers and a Vitamix, and say "Grind away, Ladies. Grind away." Read more

The old bats in my office have insisted on doing an "Office Family Thanksgiving" the past few years, because apparently we're all "family" here in the office, you see. I strenuously disagree and have zero interest in forced chumminess, awkward conversation and sparking apple juice in the conference room. Despite my… Read more

All Damn Day-Golf Channel, The Outdoors-Golf: Many of you may have missed it, what with it taking place on the other side of the globe and coverage concluding at 8 AM, but should you have DVR'd it, the Sime Darby Malaysia LPGA event was top-rung competition and worth viewing. Shanshan Feng shot a 63 to overtake… Read more

Colorado? More like Coloradon't. Read more

I am super, super stoked to see that AMG GT with the alternate trim package.

The authorities really need to get that old, fat, shitty, lazy, probably half-senile bear back where he belongs, the Sunday NFL Countdown desk. Read more

Somewhere, Andrea Bargnani sits down, defeated, and a tear runs down his cheek. For a long time he had relished his spot atop the list of biggest Italian frauds. Read more

You know he's a real dickhead because he used the correct pluralization of attorney general. Read more

This is so perfectly obnoxious. Read more

That sounds good. My local driveway has a special for Genny tallboys. I get a chilled Genny tallboy full of ice cold Genesee from the fridge and drink it while dicking around in the driveway. I'm not sure what the can costs individually, since I bought a sixer of them. Read more

I had one of these; bought with a cracked head, swapped a junkyard Audi 4k head onto it, and drove it for a few years. Man, was it a glorious beater. The sound of that engine alone was worth the price, and with that drivetrain it could climb a greased halfpipe. If it hadn't been T-boned by the prior owner, I'd have… Read more

So, you get laid or what? Read more
