So, according to Wikipedia, they're like Scandinavian Greasers.

Honestly they sound like a blast to ride with. I also now want a fintail Mercedes because I love both of those things, so they're doing something right.

Wait. Are those the Scandinavian greasers? 'Cause they look like less fat ICP fans.

Ah. Googled it and found your image. Also found this one :nws:

And there were lots of pretty awesome cars in many of the google image results. Sorry, the one in the picture is beat-the-gently caress up. And I don't know cars, so have no clue if it is an impressive car or not.

Mmm. Sexy shorts.

There are quite a few attractive, more greaser-looking people in a lot of the pictures. I just posted the white-trashier looking.

Officially, no. It's called a "Wii Remote."

You gotta love these guys at these large corporations that are just so sure everyone will call their devices/accessories by their full name, and not shorten it to something easier/funnier/dirtier.

The X-Box One is a great example, too. Did they seriously think we'd all call it the X-Box One and NOT the X-BOne? Like...C'mon!

It's even better when they demand it's written in a certain way. It's not "Nintendo GameCube" or "Nintendo Gamecube" it's "NINTENDO GAMECUBE". Needless to say, no one actually followed that one.

I wish that fake "All I want for xmas is a PSP" site was still up, the people making the fake blog had strict rules about referring to the PSP by its official name and had to include the registered trademark symbol so it stuck out like crazy against the rest of their textspeak.

Breyer's.

quote:

In the Western U.S. and Texas,[11] Breyers ice cream is sometimes confused with Dreyer's ice cream. While Henry Breyer founded Breyers in 1908 on the east coast of the U.S. (in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), William Dreyer and Joseph Edy co-founded their ice cream company, "Edy's Grand Ice Cream", in 1928 on the west coast of the U.S. (in Oakland, California). However, the roots of this confusion date to 1953, when "Edy's Grand Ice Cream" changed its name to "Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream". (See Dreyer's article for details.) As the two brands mutually expanded across the U.S., a similarity-of-name issue was likely inevitable due to the only differences in their rhyming names being a single letter and an apostrophe. By 1981, Breyers had yet to establish itself in states west of the Rockies or in Texas. Dreyer's, on the other hand, had become a national brand. Seeking to eliminate confusion between the two, Dreyer's decided to change the brand name of their products sold in the home market of Breyers from "Dreyer's Grand" back to their original but then-defunct name "Edy's Grand" in 1981.[12] However, around that same time Breyers had begun an expansion towards the west coast - the home market of Dreyer's - and by the mid-1980s were distributing ice cream throughout the Western U.S. and Texas.[13] Unlike Dreyer's, Breyers decided to keep their brand name nationally, and as a result, both Breyers and Dreyer's can be found on store shelves in the Western U.S. and Texas

Nah, their cartons are different enough that you notice. Breyer's is in an oblong carton, Dreyer's is in the standard cylinder. The best stuff is Tillamook and Umpqua, though, so you never get confused.

Umpqua is pretty awesome. I wonder if it's only a Northwest thing, or if it's everywhere.
