    That would be cool. When I was a kid my uncle brought me to a Mercury dealership when they were coming out with the new cougar. They had a real fucking cougar on the hood of one of the cars and my uncle put me with it for a picture. My mom was some kind of pissed the fuck off when she saw the picture.

    I can't figure out my favorite part. Stupid spacers, bald tires that don't fit the wheels, exhaust, ugly ass pumpkin..... The list goes on. Were you at a gay pride parade by chance? I'm not here to judge.

    If you put it on a rack you’ll see that it likely directs air to the diffuser panels under the car. They started doing this in the nineties with the 964s.

    I've had it on a rack and it's really cool how they divert air to everything but that scoop goes nowhere, trust me. The best I can think is that some race classes require stockish bodywork and it would be a functional part in that case. Maybe if it were turbo the intercooler would go there.

    Our family lived on one of the last roads in Texas to still have a party line phone system. Try to explain what a party line is to young people and they just go blank.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Move over Florida...Japan is in the house.

    https://www.foxnews.com/world/man-35-reportedly-marries-computer-hologram

    Surrounded by nearly 40 people, a 35-year-old man reportedly married a virtual hologram earlier this month.

    Akihiko Kondo, who works at a middle school in Japan, wed Hatsune Miku, a hologram that was created by a computer as singing software, on Nov. 4, Reuters reported Wednesday.

    The hologram, which takes the form of a teen performer, “is a singing voice synthesizer featured in over 100,000 songs,” according to an online description from Crypton Future Media, the company whose program the character is modeled on, Reuters reported.

    In a statement to Fox News, the company said they are "not involved in any way in this 'wedding' ceremony, and we have no knowledge of it outside of what has been reported."

    "Marriage with a character has no legal validity, and this event should be of no concern to Hatsune Miku's millions of fans," the company continued. "We see this as one individual's way of expressing his appreciation for Hatsune Miku, and we respect that."

    While acknowledging the traditional path to marriage, Kondo said he feels “the shape of happiness and love is different for each person.”

    “There definitely is a template for happiness, where a real man and woman get married, have a child and live all together. But I don’t believe such a template can necessarily make everyone happy,” Kondo told Reuters.

    Both Kondo, whose parents were not present at the wedding, and his new bride each have wedding rings, according to the outlet. A doll that resembles the bride reportedly wears the hologram’s ring.

    The groom requested a marriage registration form from Gatebox, a technology company that last year offered the documents for those who wanted to marry computer-generated personas, Reuters said. However, the weddings reportedly do not have any legal grounds.

    Since the ceremony, Kondo told Reuters that people have reached out to him, “saying they were encouraged,” he told the outlet. “I think it was nice to have this wedding for that reason.”

    The way the “Hate Crime” law is written, there can not be a “hate crime” against a white person, particularly a white male.
