I’m thinking at least one person here should be careful what they wish for unless they are just wanting to stay on troll island.

"likes", "disagrees", and "educated", etc reactions are all literally part of this site. If you have a problem with my (or anyone else's, for that matter) reactions, then I suggest that you take it up with the creator of this site. When you troll non-stop, as you have for the past month, and ignore actual facts then these are the "reactions" that you get. That doesn't make anyone "jacked". It means that perhaps they see through obvious trolling BS. Having said that, it seems like the only one "jacked" here is you and your need to interject and blindly defend Musk at every turn. See your endless and pointless trolling GIFs as evidence of these "jacked" moments.

And we just shake our heads at the fact that A.) He is not an "arch nemesis" and no one is "jacked" so save the exaggeration and B.) that you keep on ignoring that his "funding" was and continues to be a drop in a very large bucket of donors who have done FAR more than him in regards to helping out COVID research.

When you can't argue with facts and, instead, respond with trolling GIFs then you are not here for a discussion. You are here for trolling and nothing more.

I'd call it being "irony challenged" lol.

I believe the route (as I showed you in the graphic and link above) is that the research for that doctor could have come from ANY number of sources who donated more to the cause. IT IS that simple.

Not "anti-Musk". Most folks just aren't hurting their knees over his sensationalism. Sorry the facts above rain down on your bow down to Musk parade so much so that your only response is more trolling. Jack Dorsey and his $1 billion donation deserves FAR more credit for continuing and funding COVID research than Musk. Might want to watch blowing all that smoke up Elons posterior before he catches himself a case of recall cancer.

Notice the one name that is absent here but hey, that research would have never happened without Musk lol. Source:https://www.forbes.com/sites/hayleycuccinello/2020/04/15/jack-dorsey-bill-gates-and-at-least-75-other-billionaires-donating-to-pandemic-relief/?sh=706a671d21bd

MMMkay. Literally billions upon billions were donated worldwide in 2020 with the Musk Foundation contributing a whole $5 million towards it but okay, that research doesn't happen without musk lol.

And while we are at it, maybe we should just skip the part where Musk routinely spoke out against COVID prevention measures and shut down restrictions in 2020. Also skip where, despite the fact that Musk spoke out against COVID stimulus, his company still gladly took in $600 million for certain payroll benefits. F him and the hypocritical horse he rode in on.

With all this blind praising of Musk, one would think knee pads would be a good investment. Exactly. "Support" does not mean crap in this context. It's right up there with "thoughts and prayers" after a tragedy. Just words with no substance. All Covid research credit goes to the folks who ACTUALLY did the research and made strides towards controlling it via treatment and vaccine creation and implementation. Musk literally did none of that. Someone must be on a "pay by the word" retainer by Musk to constantly keep bringing him up in different discussion that aren't even about him.?

All of this plus a ton of room in the back with all the seats down and no sloping roof to cut off large items. I have hauled an entire loveseat in this, which simply could not have been done in any "car like" CUV with their sloping rooflines. My only regret is not getting a low mileage Eco-Boost model at the time, but that may change in the near future. I am waiting out this used car price hike craze currently consuming everything and then may hunt for a 2019-21 Eco-Boost Flex. What can I say? I like my wagons.

While I get the sentiment here, my Flex would disagree with your post 100%. Love owning it and love driving it, which can not be said for 95% of the CUV market out there. It also doesn't look like everything else out there, for good or bad. Just so we are clear though, I do TOTALLY get the sentiment here.

Please, oh please, elaborate the part in bold.

“See! I showed you where other companies have problems too. It’s not just Tesla “ Also Tesla (who is consistently ranked at or near the bottom of every dependability survey)… And, then was this just a couple of months ago. https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/04/15/the-fun-police-strikes-again-tesla-recalls-595-000-vehicles-after-safety-investigation Point being, DUH! Other companies like Ford have problems too. However, those problems don’t happen as often at Fore as they clearly do at Tesla. That is years of this nonsense with a large ego at the helm but sure, let’s just pretend that Teslas problems are equal to say, Ford, when they’re clearly not. That makes a lot of sense.

"But all car companies have issues with quality. It's not just Tesla." Not at the same frequency (Tesla is consistently at the bottom of just about every reliability ranking/score out there) and not issues like this... https://www.motortrend.com/news/nhtsa-tesla-autopilot-investigation-shutoff-crash/ But whatever we do, do not blame Elon.?

Right now, I am like… at the absurdity here (the obvious context deficiency on display here).

And I don’t know how anyone can say that criticism of Musk is just because of some tweets or a singular incident. It most certainly is not If those same folks have been paying attention to his actions over the last decade. Hell, the man now criticized government subsidies while somehow ignoring that his company exists as it is today solely because of those SAME SUBSIDIES over that same decade. That’s just for starters.

I would like to add the wide ranging quality and reliability issues with Tesla that far trumps the Bolts ONE issue. Elon gets easily distracted and this is a known fact (mostly due to being high spectrum) and it’s his end line product that suffers as a result. His interests and focus seem to change with the season and that is a huge problem.

Don’t know about Young but most locals there would probably say that bands like Mudhoney, early Soundgarden, and Mother Love Bone started the grunge scene there. Nirvana just got the first big break is all. And Seattle can keep that rain. That is way too much for my taste.

I agree 1000% about Nirvana. Vastly overrated. And it wasn’t taken as being serious Olds. Just pointing it out that Seattle was known for more than grunge at one point. Well of course because those are much larger population hubs with longer histories than Seattle. For a city it’s size though, it has supplied some pretty damn good music.

@oldshurst442-I should add that despite your hate for grunge, there are other big names from Seattle that long predate the grunge scene. Heart and Queensryche for starters.

Not entirely true. “Original Fire” by Audioslave is about Seattle and their music scene in the early 90s.

I think I’m already there lol. The last drive was two and half years ago and I don’t think I could drive that long without more breaks due to multiple health issues with my back and hips these days.

That is true lol. It's been 28 years since I have been through that stretch of GA and it was always a little hairy just because of the law enforcement presence back then. Sounds like traffic flow is the big issue now with the population blow up in that area. There are parts of I-40 like that (looking at you Memphis, TN and Little Rock, AR).
