[QUOTE=Lijitsu;44365162]I'm literally the only person who is going to drink this soda, there isn't anyone else in my house who even drinks this flavor. Constantly getting up and refilling a glass that then has to be added to the other dishes when I go to bed creates extra work that could be completely avoided by just drinking from the bottle. Furthermore, if I go somewhere that I think I'll need a drink I can take a full 2-liter and know I'll have enough to last me the entire time I'm gone. Drinking straight from the bottle also helps regulate how much I drink, because I know exactly how fast I'm going through the bottle just by looking over my shoulder.
But yeah by all means, call me a "slob" for trying to reduce the amount of dirty dishes I create on a day to day basis, that makes perfect sense.[/QUOTE]
im still trying to work out how a thread on a car turned out with this

Mmmmm, smells like Rush and a coke addiction.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;44364473]Why does the UK use miles[/QUOTE]
Because it's the only way the UK and US will be friends
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44369695]???[/QUOTE]
Its unit of mass
As a Brit I only really understand miles truly as a imperial measurement. I only have a brief understanding of inches as well. School really got metric ground into me.
[QUOTE=WhyNott;44369770]Its unit of mass[/QUOTE]
Dumb semantics. Even tho it's not official, it's still normal to talk about weight of things and you can use both metric and imperial units for that.

My old car (Mercedes 200D) had that instead of a rev counter. Who needs to view the revs when you can count how many minutes it takes to get to 100Km/h.

lmao I don't even want to get into how manbabyish and lazy this sounds, but just take into account how your nasty stank breath is already slobbering on that bottle fresh out the fridge, then you continue to slurp on it for a prolonged period of time with turbo nasty breath from all that prior nastiness combined with soda dry water deprived breath and probably cheetos
I am unsettled just thinking about what kind of forsaken scent would be received if a nose was within inches of that bottle lid

[QUOTE=ZenZill;44364416]I always thought how cool would it be to able to buy a vintage car 'brand-new' in modern times. Kind of like an action figure never opened
That 30 year old Volvo will probably outlast most modern cars :v:[/QUOTE]
You can buy a more or less brand new circa 1980's DMC 12 DeLorean from DMC. These guys pretty much acquired the massive stock pile of DMC 12 parts and sell cars built to order from original never before used parts. IIRC too they have a few updated aspects to the car too i think chassis or transmission wise.

Weight and mass are different things. But yes in daily use weights are often given in kilograms (even though it is incorrect).
At concerts I bring a 2-liter bottle of water V:
[QUOTE=DowntownTiger;44365072]drinking from a 2 liter bottle is kinda slobbish bro[/QUOTE]
As much as I hate to disagree with out (in reality I agree with you), I am one of those guys you see at the plaza holding a 2L coke bottle and chugging from it. People laugh sometimes when they see it, I don't mind :PP

eh, delorean just carries the name. And apparently the stainless steel is impossible to keep clean. But shit I'd kill for that.
Also I like how this thread about a car becomes a debate on soda.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;44364473]Why does the UK use miles[/QUOTE]
To confuse the French.
Try driving in London now, you froggy bastards.

It'd do that anyway. Modern cars are all built to warranty and would barely last 10-15 years. That volvo has about 40 in it if it's maintained properly.

there's an ae86 in belgium like this, except with all the plastic wrappings on the seat and shit still on.

Some car manufacturers keep them, such as the first one off the production line or the 1,000th. Opel have a museum full of them all never used.
