wow. just.
wow.
We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War is a spiritual war. Our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television and to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.

Where did it come from? Does anyone know what car its supposed to be for?It is quite the most amazingly bad piece of fabrication I have ever seen. My cat has made better welds than that by standing on the torch!
