I say have the Paladins God go mad and start whispering dark nothings into his ear.
I mean, if God COMMANDED you to bash somebodys face into meat jam while they slept, you’d have to do it.
Really, are you going to risk apostasy because you aren’t comfortable defecating in somebody’s gurgling larynx?

MIRACLEARROW:

As soon as he listed accords in his list of non ugly cars without listing cars like the GT-R I stopped caring.
If you don’t think Evo’s, STi’s, GTRs, Supras, Skylines dont look cool there is something wrong.

dont expect him to name every one but I drive an accord so dont hate :mad:

how did I not see this. Japan is nothing but left over ricer hype from fast and furious. All their “cool” cars where priced at absurd premium prices with weak performance. Its easy to “dominate” when everybody was making garbage cars. Even today their subpar “performance” cars are priced at such weird premuims, you can buy other cars that outperform for far less or outperform at the same cost. The 90’s accord still retained heavy elements of Japanese box styling which make it a Japanese classic, and the 04-08 Accord (Acura TSX in US) had good lines and tried getting at that sharpness while still having to comply with fuel standards, Even the 98-03 Accord Coupe tried that box styling with its rear. VS Subaru, Mistubishi, Toyota, and Nissan have been building ugly bubble cars with horrible sharp lines to try and make their cars look less bubbly than they really are, and they’be been doing that since the 90’s with everything they have had. The last pretty car toyota made was the late 80’s MR series of cars (a good car with all due respect and toyota’s true mvp)

Japan was all about box styling, they did it better than the Italians. Their cars where actually reliable and performed well compared to everything else. If you can’t see why the Accord’s I listed aren’t visually appealing then there’s something wrong. 90’s JDM isn’t great for the most part, and very very few cars where able to make the transition from box to shperical design well.

The FD did it best, all the car’s you listed didn’t and fell flat on their faces.

Also skyline’s are over rated garbage, and i’m wiling to put money that you prefer the mark 4 over the mark 3

Who in God’s name prefers the Mark 3 over the Mark 4 lol.

This basically sums up the Mark 3:

R32 over Mark 3 all day.

FD is a great car. Can’t deny that. But these cars you’re listing are far from fast and furious hype. In fact that doesnt even make sense. Tommi Mäkinen evos/sti, R32-R34, Mark 3 and Mark 4. FD. All came like 10 years before fast and furious even came out.

Please find me a car that outperforms the new GTR for the price point. I’m talking Nürburgring times.

And while we’re at it:

But I mean hey, what do I know…

Nuclear accident in New Mexico ranks among the costliest in U.S. history

Spoiler

When a drum containing radioactive waste blew up in an underground nuclear dump in New Mexico two years ago, the Energy Department rushed to quell concerns in the Carlsbad desert community and quickly reported progress on resuming operations.

The early federal statements gave no hint that the blast had caused massive long-term damage to the dump, a facility crucial to the nuclear weapons cleanup program that spans the nation, or that it would jeopardize the Energy Department’s credibility in dealing with the tricky problem of radioactive waste.

But the explosion ranks among the costliest nuclear accidents in U.S. history, according to a Times analysis. The long-term cost of the mishap could top $2 billion, an amount roughly in the range of the cleanup after the 1979 partial meltdown at the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania.

The Feb. 14, 2014, accident is also complicating cleanup programs at about a dozen current and former nuclear weapons sites across the U.S. Thousands of tons of radioactive waste that were headed for the dump are backed up in Idaho, Washington, New Mexico and elsewhere, state officials said in interviews.

Washington state officials were recently forced to accept delays in moving the equivalent of 24,000 drums of nuclear waste from Hanford site to the New Mexico dump. The deal has further antagonized the relationship between the state and federal regulators.

“The federal government has an obligation to clean up the nuclear waste at Hanford,” Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee said in a statement. “I will continue to press them to honor their commitments to protect Washingtonians’ public health and our natural resources.”

Other states are no less insistent. The Energy Department has agreed to move the equivalent of nearly 200,000 drums from Idaho National Laboratory by 2018.

“Our expectation is that they will continue to meet the settlement agreement,” said Susan Burke, an oversight coordinator at the state’s Department of Environmental Quality.

The dump, officially known as the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, was designed to place waste from nuclear weapons production since World War II into ancient salt beds, which engineers say will collapse around the waste and permanently seal it. The equivalent of 277,000 drums of radioactive waste is headed to the dump, according to federal documents.

The dump was dug much like a conventional mine, with vertical shafts and a maze of horizontal drifts. It had operated problem-free for 15 years and was touted by the Energy Department as a major success until the explosion, which involved a drum of of plutonium and americium waste that had been packaged at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

The problem was traced to material — actual kitty litter — used to blot up liquids in sealed drums. Lab officials had decided to substitute an organic material for a mineral one. But the new material caused a complex chemical reaction that blew the lid off a drum, sending mounds of white, radioactive foam into the air and contaminating 35% of the underground area.

“There is no question the Energy Department has downplayed the significance of the accident,” said Don Hancock, who monitors the dump for the watchdog group Southwest Research and Information Center.

Though the error at the Los Alamos lab caused the accident, a federal investigation found more than two dozen safety lapses at the dump. The dump’s filtration system was supposed to prevent any radioactive releases, but it malfunctioned.

Twenty-one workers on the surface received low doses of radiation that federal officials said were well within safety limits. No workers were in the mine when the drum blew.

Energy Department officials declined to be interviewed about the incident but agreed to respond to written questions. The dump is operated by Nuclear Waste Partnership, which is led by the Los Angeles-based engineering firm AECOM. The company declined to comment.

Federal officials have set an ambitious goal to reopen the site for at least limited waste processing by the end of this year, but full operations can not resume until a new ventilation system is completed in about 2021.

The direct cost of the cleanup is now $640 million, based on a contract modification made last month with Nuclear Waste Partnership that increased the cost from $1.3 billion to nearly $2 billion. The cost-plus contract leaves open the possibility of even higher costs as repairs continue. And it does not include the complete replacement of the contaminated ventilation system or any future costs of operating the mine longer than originally planned.

An Energy Department spokesperson declined to address the cost issue but acknowledged that the dump would either have to stay open longer or find a way to handle more waste each year to make up for the shutdown. She said the contract modification gave the government the option to cut short the agreement with Nuclear Waste Partnership.

It costs about $200 million a year to operate the dump, so keeping it open an additional seven years could cost $1.4 billion. A top scientific expert on the dump concurred with that assessment.

In addition, the federal government faces expenses — known as “hotel costs” — to temporarily store the waste before it is shipped to New Mexico, said Ellis Eberlein of Washington’s Department of Ecology.

The Hanford site stores the equivalent of 24,000 drums of waste that must be inspected every week. “You have to make sure nothing leaks,” he said.

The cleanup of the Three Mile Island plant took 12 years and was estimated to cost $1 billion by 1993, or $1.7 billion adjusted for inflation today. The estimate did not include the cost of replacing the power the shut-down plant was no longer generating.

Other radioactive contamination at nuclear weapons sites is costing tens of billions of dollars to clean up, but it is generally the result of deliberate practices such as dumping radioactive waste into the ground.

James Conca, a consultant who has advised the Energy Department on nuclear waste issues, described the accident as a comedy of errors and said that federal officials are being “overly cautious” about the cleanup. “It got contaminated, but a new exhaust shaft is kind of ridiculous,” he said.

For now, workers entering contaminated areas must wear protective gear, including respirators, the Energy Department spokesperson said. She noted that the size of the restricted area had been significantly reduced earlier this year.

Hancock suggested that the dump might never resume full operations.

“The facility was never designed to operate in a contaminated state,” he said. “It was supposed to open clean and stay clean, but now it will have to operate dirty. Nobody at the Energy Department wants to consider the potential that it isn’t fixable.”

Giving up on the New Mexico dump would have huge environmental, legal and political ramifications. This year the Energy Department decided to dilute 6 metric tons of surplus plutonium in South Carolina and send it to the dump, potentially setting a precedent for disposing of bomb-grade materials. The U.S. has agreements with Russia on mutual reductions of plutonium.

The decision means operations at the dump must resume, said Edwin Lyman, a physicist and nuclear expert at the Union of Concerned Scientists.

“They have no choice,” he said. “No matter what it costs.”

Dude you adressed me. You fucking quoted me. Its The Lounge, its an open conversation. Sit the fuck down.

I can comment because thays how forums work, and because my dad is a baker so i know what a good pastry is, not to mention fast food joints dont really have good food anyway. Its a givin that it will be low quality because fast food is defined by low quality. This sint rocket science dude.

And im not mad, youe the one gettong upset posting huge gifa tryin to tell me what to do because i think your taco bell pastries are shit tier.

Also skyline’s are over rated garbage, and i’m wiling to put money that you prefer the mark 4 over the mark 3

Who in God’s name prefers the Mark 3 over the Mark 4 lol.

This basically sums up the Mark 3:

The car did not win as many races as hoped as it was bumped up a class due to engine size. Being a 3.0-liter, it was forced to run with more weight whereas the equally powerful, higher revving but slightly smaller capacity R32 Skyline GTR did not have the same weight restriction. It was soon outperformed by the Skyline GT-R R32 when it made its debut in 1990. For the Japanese Touring Car Championship (JTCC), Toyota would in 1991 switch to racing the Corolla Levins instead in the lower category until the series final year in 1993. However, in the less ‘limited’ racing, like Group B Rally Championships, National Drag racing, Hill climbs, Sprint Events and Clubmans series, the Group-A cars did considerably better.

R32 over Mark 3 all day.

FD is a great car. Can’t deny that. But these cars you’re listing are far from fast and furious hype. In fact that doesnt even make sense. Tommi Mäkinen evos/sti, R32-R34, Mark 3 and Mark 4. FD. All came like 10 years before fast and furious even came out.

Please find me a car that outperforms the new GTR for the price point. I’m talking Nürburgring times.

But I mean hey, what do I know…

Gtr had non dot legal tires, rolling start, profesional driver, and was a one off spec up gtr that was not sold to the public.

Current prices for gtr are 160k+, even the 80k price tagged gtr in 2008 where bad performers and nissan has been changing the software for thr car every year making it a overly proxed vehicle.

viper acr last and current gen walks it, porsche 911 GT walks it for onlt 10-20k more, c6 zr1 and even z06 beat it, viper ta is far better for a lower price. Mercedes baby sls outperfoems it in gt racing to. Had chevy not fucked up qith their c7 z06 and made it soft car, plus addressed the issues with the lt4, it would be a continuation of rape from the c6 and c5 era. Nismo products are wack, a r spec genesis walks and outrurns a nismo 370 priced at almost double the genesis.

Inb4 corvette and viper arent as fancy amd seat two or too aggressive. Lol

The chevy cobalt had a time similar to the type R in 2008 for half the price (lol at a 45k fwd hatchback when the st amd rs exist or you can buy a mercedes gls amg for the same price), secondly honda is being sued for lying about their times and equipment set up. The lap record they claimed was done by a profesaional driver, with a roll cage, expensive summer tires not offered by honda, and arop tech non dot legal brake pads. Ie a spec car thats no longer factory stock

Thank you for pointing the akyline hype, only the r32 won anything of value. Mark 3 still looks better than the mark 4. The most succesful Japanese car in terms of legit racing domination was mazda’s experimental le mans car using 4 rotor set up.

New nsx isnt performing well at all neither and is really expensive.

You didn’t even answer the question I asked when I quoted you YESTERDAY. I was talking to @blueleon when I asked if HE tried them. You decided to answer a question that wasn’t directed toward you with a bunch of bullshit no one asked to hear.

I don’t care if your dad’s a baker. That shit has nothing to do with the conversation and it doesn’t give you free reign to pass judgement on something you haven’t experienced. Fuck outta here with that entitled bullshit . All you have are assumptions. Nothing more. I don’t care for those.

At the end of the day, we’re talking about some fuckin’ pastries from Taco Bell. If you wanna catch feelings because of my recommendation due to your dad being a baker, that’s YOUR business. It has nothing to do with me and I’m not gonna continue this senseless back and forth with you. They’re fucking snacks, my nigga. Calm down.
