    Laughter is infectious, therefore I must conclude it’s the original month python script containing the world’s funniest joke

        I asked German translate if it could help me out, and it politely responded:

        “Das wird nicht passieren.”

        Huh.

          It’s supposed to be the Germans version of the “funniest joke in the world” from the Monty Python sketch they were talking about in the previous comment. I’m pretty sure they made it nonsensical because they never actually say what the English version of the joke is lol almost all of them were fluent in German

            In hindsight, I suppose I should have input “I’m dreadfully sorry, but if I translate this for you, you’ll die.”

    Steps to becoming a car person: Step one - like cars. Step two - pick up a drug habit because it’s way cheaper than restoring cars.

      I love my Prelude. I paid $2,700 for it. I could sink another $10k into it and I’d have a perfectly good Prelude worth $6,000.

      One of these days when I can stand to be out 10 grand, I’ll fix it up. For now, I’m just enjoying it as it is. It looks like butt, but it runs good.

        Preludes are awesome! I’ve got an old Miata that I’ve had for years, similar situation. I’ve thrown a ton of money at it, full well knowing I’ll never see it back. But she’s mine, she runs great, and I have no intentions of selling.

          Hell yeah! I’ve had mine since last summer. I had a 4 speed auto in high school and college, and I always told myself that if I could do it again, I’d get it with a stick so that’s what I managed.

          What gen Miata? I’ve been wanting to drive an NB for a long time, but I can only realistically afford to have one 20+ year old car at a time lol

            Mine is an NA, '95. I really dig the popup headlights. 1995 was a good year IMO. First year with the bigger 1.8, and still had OBD1.

            My brother has an NB for years, so I’ve had plenty of seat time in one of those as well. They feel really similar to the NA, with better suspension travel. Great cars!

    People always freak out over this picture but it’s just a joke about motorcycles. Bumper stickers say “Yamaha” and “Look twice”, a common motorcycle-awareness safety slogan. “[MO]TORCYCLE” is written on the same sticker below, but you can’t really tell due to the low image quality

      Yeah, I’m sure it’s some sort of expensive hobby he’s addicted to, and perpetual project motorcycle would be my first guess.

          It is quite definitive though. Aside from one (alleged) occurrence of a person not being cured (and it is also alleged to have worked the second time, in that case), it has never been described to fail in all of humanity’s recorded history
