With you. Love beer, cocktails, whisk(e)y, amaro, etc. And I really don't like getting drunk (I do sometimes, but always regret it).
2-3/night is my usual. Usually a beer after work then another 1 or two throughout the evening. Add an afternoon beer or cocktail on the weekends. Well-spaced. Almost never more than 5 drinks in an entire day.
They just fell apart. The plastic body meant no rust (I think the roof was steel though)!
Seriously, everything inside just started falling apart after 10 years. Dash, seat belt winders, door panels fell off, radio buttons just caved in, etc. and ours lived a fairly pampered life.
I spent a good deal of my childhood in one. The 3.1L V6 was a dog and the 3 speed transmission meant kicking down was an event and the mileage was terrible. Dad always wished he held out for the 3.8L and 4 speed in '92.
I see a sidewinder in the background too. That was always my favorite of their concepts in that era.
I think the Lamborghini LM002 might be the bad looking darling of my childhood.
Or the Bizzarini BZ-2001 concept. I had a poster on my wall.
Lots of variations of anti-theft hangers have that kind of fixed loop feature.
I could squint a little and make a case that this represents a CEO who is about to spend a shitload of company money on AI (or any anti-human venture) rather than employees.
Not if you're lactose intolerant! But then it's also a shit post. A violent and painful one.
In the late 90s (or maybe 2000) in the US Midwest, I remember paying $0.79 a gallon, or $0.21/L. With the exchange rate then, it works out to £0.13/L. So yeah, it was cheap. I filled my 15 gallon tank for the cost of 2 hours at my just above minimum wage job.

Got the uppers painted and installed.
Time to find some MDF for the face frame, drawer fronts, and shelves. Which reminds me, I need a router bit for the integrated drawer pulls she wants.
My first project is really coming together!
Built a set of drawers cabinets to my wife's specs for the closet. Still have uppers, face frame and overlay fronts to do, but the garage was too full to keep going.
4ft (122cm) tall bank of drawers with full extension soft close undermount slides. 88in.(222cm) wide.
Feel free to make fun of the 2x4 toe kick! Rest assured I've learned my lesson.
All cuts made with my portable DeWalt table saw after breaking down sheets with my Ryobi circular saw and a harbor freight clamp as an edge guide.
It has been a minute since I've seen Southland Tales. What a trip! Time for another rewatch.
Stellar list overall too!
