Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for sale

You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further. The 1999 Toyota Corolla. Let's talk about features. Bluetooth: nope Sunroof: nope Fancy wheels: nope Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn. Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End. You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up. This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children. Things this car is old enough to do: Vote: yes

Consent to sex: yes Rent a car: it IS a car This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would. Interesting facts: This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey. In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional." When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey. Favorite food: spaghetti Favorite tv show: Alf Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the-

When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine." Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla. Google map of cars location

Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.

Yo why is the worm so jacked

Echoes of Aincrad Preview: Already an Anime-Styled Single-Player Action-RPG Delight - IGN If the single-player action-RPG Echoes of Aincrad can nail what it’s aiming for, it should, based on what we've played so far, be a chance for seasoned vets and newcomers alike to get into the Sword A...

Since it’s finally been announced: I got to play Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad a couple weeks ago, and I wrote about the experience for @ign.com. It's very pretty, and also has the meanest wasps to ever appear in a video game, and I mean that as a compliment.

Big thanks to @dmc-ryan.bsky.social for asking if I wanted this. Turned into a pretty grand experience, and I am very happy with the result.

Echoes of Aincrad Preview: Already an Anime-Styled Single-Player Action-RPG Delight YouTube video by IGN

There's a bit in the video for this one that’s truly diabolical, and I'm glad we were able to make it work. IGN's production team is the best in the business. You'll know it when you see it.

It really isn't

As far as I know it’s just the ask.

It is. But "please wait several weeks to write your reviews, during which time we will make money on the game" is never going to look good.

That's fine, but "please wait a few weeks to review this while we make money on it the entire time" is definitely going to read a certain way.

I don't think they're trying to pull a fast one (it just seems like poor planning to me), but I would also not begrudge anyone who came to that conclusion either.

If you wanted that content to be part of the review, it should be in the build. Can you imagine if we held MMO reviews until the first patch adding raids came out?

I understand this take but I think the *instant* the thing becomes available for purchase, it is open to criticism.

You can spend real money on Marathon. There should be reviews you can read right now.

The Prestigious Ryan Easby 2025 End-Of-Year Awards – Subversion, Greek Gods, Grinding & Muppet Copulation Ryan Easby joins our GOTY 2025 week with a contributor guest list! It gets weird, let's say.

We've got a contributor GOTY list on deck today, with whatever this nonsense is by @easbygames.bsky.social

Check it out, so we don't regret publishing it:

In that case, they get to use a metal bat

I feel like if if you pretend concurrent player counts is a reasonable, be-all, end-all method for judging a game's popularity, every game developer who worked on the game you’re using it to critique should get one (1) free shot at one of your knees with a baseball bat

"Why isn't Xbox issuing a takedown notice??"

They don't want to! They profit off of this!!

When you buy Xbox games, when you promote them uncritically, this is what you are helping fund.

A large orange cat (Jake) lies on top of a red blanket covering me. He is staring past the camera, into the distance, probably thinking about breakfast.

Jake's trying not think about the horrors

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

can we talk about the fetishization of military power in these games and how they function as propaganda yet or...?

The logical conclusion of the military shooter is using them for real-world propaganda, because that's what they've always been.

The question Spec Ops asked, which people largely ignored because they didn't like how it made them feel, was "Why are you doing war crimes for fun? Why do you want to play soldier and shoot people for fun? What about this appeals to you?"

I hate to be that guy but Spec Ops: The Line really destroyed my desire to ever play a military shooter again.

The white phosphorus scene is just the AC-130 sequence from Call of Duty 4. You just have to walk through what you did afterwards. And then imagine that taken to its logical conclusion.

Truly he has blessed us with curse knowledge

Damn, enough time has passed that the "they had WMDs" playlist is back in style again?
