Bitch, Please.


[ via AutoBlog ]

For the new 2013 Mustang, Ford has fitted a tiny projector lamp into the side mirror that casts the shape of the galloping horse logo onto the ground beside the vehicle when the driver unlocks the doors...

3 Cars I Will Always Hate :


The Car:

The Hate:
> the name
> its price [ $58k - $62k ]
> the design that only accentuates its offensive size
> its ridiculous side vents


The Car:

The Hate:
> the 'Aztek'?
> by far the ugliest car on the road
> its massive plastic bumpers
> 3...spoke...rims.


The Car:
Mercedes-Benz C-Class [ every generation ]

The Hate:
> 'you're telling me you had the option of getting a BMW 3 Series and got this instead?!'
> men [ all shapes and sizes ] look ridiculous in these

WTF Is A Beamer?!

via WiKi:

The English slang terms Beemer, Bimmer and Bee-em are variously used for BMWs of all kinds, cars, and motorcycles.


In the US, specialists have been at pains to prescribe that a distinction must be made between using Beemer exclusively to describe BMW motorcycles, and using Bimmer only to refer to BMW cars, in the manner of a "true aficionado" and avoid appearing to be "uninitiated." The Canadian Globe and Mailprefers Bimmer and calls Beemer a "yuppie abomination," while the Tacoma News Tribune says it is a distinction made by "auto snobs." Using the wrong slang risks offending BMW enthusiasts.


An editor of Business Week is satisfied that the question is resolved in favor of Bimmer by noting that a Google search yields 10 times as many hits compared to "Beemer."


tsk tsk, Mr. Lloyd Banks.

tsk tsk.


Beemer,

Bullshit Rain



Ok.

Weather is weather - but NYC has been fucking around these past couple of days. Im completely over mounting my bike to then reluctantly admit defeat and carry it onto the train because of the ice cold rain.

Egh.

I'm looping 'Black Mags' from
The Cool Kids [ the baseline is just too, too fine ] to make me feel a lil better about it all this morning.

a bit bitter,

C H O K E

Yes!

So, i found this video and sunk into the genius
[note: term used lightly] in its crassness.

The editing was masterfully done to seem careless -but, in my opinion, well thought out and executed.

The bonus is that the sound wasnt fucked with. The original score exits and re-enters as abruptly as
its visual counterpart; making each cut even more
intense gradually.


The other bonus: this comment left by a monsieur
'gomro'. ha.

Please read below:
YES.

Now, either 'gomro' here is

a) a closet fan of - based on the stellar performance by this Spiegel catalogue model/actress - this obviously shitty film that now has somewhat of a chance of having a legacy through youtube.

b) the writer/producer/director of said shitty film that now has somewhat of a chance of having a legacy through youtube.

c) a moron who's too impressed with himself for knowing the movie's original premise to notice that this scene has intentionally been plucked and edited out of context for webtertainment [ duh ]

Yeah, I'd go with Option B.

...but, then he tries to throw us off by signing off with, "...but i haven't seen it in years, and it wasn't very good in any event..." & "...ran across this by accident..."

Hmmm...he thinks he's slick. Why the fuck did he comment in the first place?! ha.

anyway,
