Made by a convicted prolific child sex offender.

Backfired big time too.

Most of the big older guys realised that walking around all day is actually a pretty low pressure and laid back gig even if you are on your feet all day and dont want to go back on the machines once they are getting like 20,000 steps a day and lose the weight.

Its here somewhere.

"In our defence he was way better at brown people things than a lot of brown people"

Some companies spend a lot of money on market research and trying to get ahead of trends (Mercedes Benz, Honda, Toyota) some companies disregard common sense and do what they want (Alfa, The French in general) and cheaper brands dont waste the money on price point cars. Its not an Iron clad rule but people buy a german to project wealth, you buy other euros to project style, you buy Honda and Toyota for reliability. You buy a Nissan Altima because they will finance you, you buy a Chinese car because you arent keeping it past warranty expiry anyway.

As to what sets them apart. Little things like painted brake calipers, the quality of the badging, the texture on the plastic interior, little trim pieces that stop you seeing any of the interior workings, the windscreen wipers looking "chunky". Wheels and stance also play a large part of the image. Wide wheels simply look more expensive, as do lower profile tyres.

Then things get a little more tactile, the dull thump when you shut the door over the higher pitched clank, the thickness of the interior plastics and number of fasteners making the interior feel sturdier even though you cant see the difference, the sensation of the indicators being put on, the UI on the touchscreen...

Prestige brands also dont do trim level names/badges very often. They like letters and numbers like 330i M-Sport or c65 AMG. Lexus followed suit with the LS400. They WANT you to say "Yeah, I got the Touring package" or "I bought the AMG sports pack" and they know their owners want to do it too.

You dont need to spend big... it only needs to make a 1 way trip.

I got told by a friend that if you want to encounter polite french people learn one phrase "Hello. I'm sorry, I dont speak french. Do you speak english?"

Dont assume they speak english and dont butcher their language.

Now I dont work in the law enforcement industry but I do work in an industry that has supposed fitness requirements although they arent enforced.

For us, the union told them "If they have to maintain a weight of X to remain employed. You have to pay them to hit the gym on company time or pay their gym fees and an allowance." So the company filed that away under "fuck that". Now if you get too fat for the equipment they just move you to a different duty, often one with a shitload of walking around.

Bugs Bunny.

I figured out why that movie is so good because it bothered me for a while.

The casting is absolutely perfect. Its not terribly special in any other way, but they nailed the cast. Even dumb lines like "cox n dix" work.

I was a doorman at a popular niteclub, she was out partying damn near every weekend for a while, I saw it happen twice in person.

Drunk people arent all that witty and they are very predictable.
