"Elle avait pris ce pli dans son âge enfantin
De venir dans ma chambre un peu chaque matin..."

Learned it in 7th grade in France; can still recite it.
Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?

Loved this article extolling the virtues of the S3 E-Type. I will say it managed to kind of rehabilitate it in my mind; I had always dismissed it ("new wine shoved in an old bottle" as the article aptly put it).

Still wouldn't drive a FHC 2+2, though. 😅 OTS is the way.

Phallic and phoggy. 😅

Show me a car you love with a styling house badge applied to the exterior somewhere.

I think my favorite thing about the French language may just be the way "Reims" is pronounced. 🤩🇫🇷

From a couple of days ago, one for @salguod.bsky.social. Always nice to see a survivor. 👍

It doesn't feel like Christmas season until the first playing of the Christmas tree light up game. 🎄 #traditions

This is quite good.

First time reading. Yes, I know. 🤦‍♂️

Found youuu... 🔎

Looks like someone's ordering new injector seals and intake manifold gaskets.

I swear smoke testers are worth their weight in gold. 👍

Well, whatever "honeymoon" I experienced with this game is definitely over. I haven't played it in a couple of weeks, and don't really want to.

It's like they *really* overcompensated for Legends: Arceus (a game I now want to replay): There's FAR too much battling; it's not relaxing or fun. 👎
So I finished the main story of Z-A late last week. A few thoughts:

- Really enjoy the battle mechanics, but the inability to pause at key points is annoying.
- Story is kind of a disaster. 5 mins and I can improve all plot points.
- Lack of menace from "antagonists" neuters all tension.

This one made me sad. Manuals AND a spare key inside!

How’s your Black Friday going? 😁

My mid-afternoon Thanksgiving nap had to be relocated on account of the dulcet strains of Starship's "We Built This City" being sung by my son as part of a karaoke session with his Discord friends. 🎶

Well, I had hoped to break 25, but for a 46-year-old dad of two who didn't do any race-specific training (just "maintenance runs"), I'll take it. 👍

Reread this for the first time since middle school. It absolutely holds up.

Side note: I love that the only copy I was able to find at 2nd & Charles was this beat-up paperback for $2. Guarantee it would have been chucked in any other context.

Hmm one of the better ones.

I miss this activity.

Also I miss that sweater, and those glasses.

Still have the David Clarks though. 👍 #avgeek

A movie that takes place where you’re from.

Hmm; that depends...

Aside from 1) the bonkers price and 2) the lack of a 3-pedal option, this may be what bothers me most about the new Prelude. 🤦‍♂️
