Every once in a while, I'm reminded in unexpected ways of how my social circle is kinda unusual. "I'm not sure we can go, it might clash with Mille Miglia" is one of those moments.
Really depends on whos fishnets I'm getting tangled in...
90% off is hard to argue against
Yhat was exactly my justification. Like how dare I turn down such a gift from the goth gods?!
Did I *need* another pair of goth boots? Absolutely fucking not. Were they $12 marked down from $120? You best believe it!
The World's Mintiest Tiburon lives around the block from me
By 1984 Lancia had done a few rust prevention updates, so it wasn't a terrible proposition to buy one new. I *think* they'd fixed the cam belt problem too by then, but I'd need to consult my books to be sure
Just a good ol taxi spec 124

I love Argento movies
Go watch the Argento original version of Suspiria, this will soon make complete sense
And no, I'm not going to go out and buy a sports car. In fact I'm planning to sell my racecar. Idk what the hell to do about myself rn
Ngl, I'm really starting to feel mid-life crisis-y. The combination of an imminent birthday, stressful dead-end job, zero local friends, and desperately wanting to make something of myself is getting very difficult.
I once bought a Sex Pistol (Glen Matlock) a beer
I am achingly jealous!
On my mom's side he ran parking lots for the City of Long Beach, including City Auditorium and the Queen Mary.
On my dad's side, my blood grandpa was a Presbyterian minister and my step-grandpa was a banker and some sort of diplomat apparently. Both died before I was born.
Please reference previous answer about getting sideways on the way to a good bottle of wine and being willing to throw a punch whilst wearing Armani
You are tasteful and classy, but fun. Not completely bonkers, but a solidly enjoyable dinner guest
Tough to give a call on the character of the person buying a brand new Lancia these days, more data needed😅
Same here. Obviously, we are people of class and impeccable taste, but prone to get sideways on our way to a good bottle of nebbiolo. Here for a good time, maybe not a long time, will throw a punch if needed while wearing Armani
43 is on the young side you should be at least 48, probably mid-50s
Regular Thesis: These days, you're a charming young weirdo/goofball, bless your heart (positive)
Thesis Protecta: I do not ask questions about you or your business. In fact, the less I know, the less likely I will be called to testify for the prosecution OR the defense
OG Zeta: You're a time traveler or pulled something out of a barn that no longer exists and are a very wealthy concours guy.
Zeta MPV: you are the wife of a devoutly Catholic, mid-tier Italian businessman. Both of you have side pieces.
Older gentleman, can tell a dirty joke in a rakishly charming way.
Today's realization: I will judge a man's character based upon the Lancia he intends to buy.
Italian automotive fun in easy mode or hard mode...
True, with enough alcohol and good company, it's survivable for about 72 hours.
So far as I can tell, wanting to go on vacation to Dubai is like "yes, I'd like to go to Las Vegas, but I need a place with well known slavery"
Good news, nerds, apparently there's no tarrif on "books for personal use!" I expected to pay some bullshit amount on a recently imported book and got a letter from FedEx stating I owe zero dollars!
Definitely the correct way to do it. I bought my house on the strength of the three car garage, which I can fit four cars into
I have a 12-15 minute commute, but I can also ride my bike on a greenbelt for most of that distance if I want to. Public transport is mostly nonexistent here though, which is stupid af.
