“Juggalambo” is the second-best automotive word that Murilee Martin has coined, right after “The Malaise Era.”

I might get some of the “FULLY COOKED” labels and wear them on my shirt when I’m having a bad day.

A few years ago I got some labels that said “For Rectal Use Only” and stuck them to a bunch of large objects on April Fools’ Day. Maybe that’s how The Algorithm discovered my fascination with weird labels.

Somehow I’ve tricked instagram into giving me ads for the most irrelevant products, like this company that sells labels to grocery stores or something:

My new rule for myself is to stop scrolling on any social media when I see something incredibly stupid or cringe. On facebook sometimes it’s the first post I see.

I’m only on instagram because my co-hosts (and a few other leftist content creators we know) are on there. So most of my feed is leftist memes, anti-genocide memes (until those accounts get banned), car memes, and cat pics. But yeah as soon as the algorithm runs out of that, it starts showing me really dumb facebook level bullshit.

HELL YEAH CRANK THAT HAWG BRUTHER

I hope so, or else I might have to have some words with Joe

I’ve owned both a Miata and an MR2 before middle age, and they’re both fun little cars that are decently cheap, economical, and reliable. But neither are very fast, practical, or safe. Sort of a compromise between a motorcycle and a sedan.

We did an episode about leaded gasoline. It’s much worse than I realized before doing the research: https://rss.com/podcasts/carsandcomrades/352764/

The Dollop episode about Midgley is also worth a listen: https://youtu.be/dPATHBg5-zw
