speaking of which




it's a pretty fascinating evolution from the hakosuka to the godzilla R34 to the modern R35 GTR. she really has let herself go hasn't she? from a svelte compact to an athletic racer to a chunky supercar. Of course the performance stats become progressively more ridiculous, but there is a qualitative change in attitude. My humble opinion prefers the R34, which somehow epitomizes for me the JDM / Gundam / Macross spirit. By the way the R34 here belongs to JDMEgo who has his own blog that illustrates the maniacal attention to detail he's invested in his R34. Cold unbelievable.

classic muscle: hakosuka skyline GTR


there are 2 types of cars i waste my time looking at: ones that i actually might find and buy, and ones that are just dope but utterly fantastical. the hakosuka skyline GTR is in the latter category.



totally impractical unless you can find one, pony up to import it, and find someone with the knowledge and passion to provide maintenance assistance and advice regularly. future tense...maybe.

Osaka people are awesome. I dare you to try this in NYC.

"Do you think these girls like me? NO, they like my money!"


How do you think I got into the RE game to begin with ? My guy TV put me down and helped me ditch these losers!

that's right i'm bored

EXCERPT: I return to the restroom about four minutes and ten seconds later, and the rear stall is now open. PAYDIRT!!! The middle stall is still occupied by the same dude as before (I can tell by seeing the same shoes and pants on the floor underneath the door). I actually think to myself, “that sucks, poor guy.” After wiping the toilet seat, I sit down and take a refreshing and cleansing poo. Things are looking up in life again.

I go to flush the toilet and sneer at how ugly it looks in there. It’s bad. Really bad. It is actually too gross for me to follow-through on taking a picture of it and texting it to my friend Steve.
