    Not necessarily. If COVID is more contagious than the flu (and it seems likely it is), the mask mandates and social distancing measures are probably being followed enough to mitigate the latter, but not quite enough to stifle the former.

    The solution to the no-working problem was stimulus checks at first, but we haven't had those in months sadly.
    Shouldn't we have a mask mandate and social distancing mandate for COVID? I mean, that's gotta help, right?

    well your banks suck then. Putting an emphasize on avoiding an economy meltdown instead of peoples meltdown just makes thing worse, much worse. Im sure people with at least a quarter of a brain can figure out who's fault that is decimating (is that the right word ?) your country. Anyways im getting to political here so im going to end this conversation (i think) i started

    I'm not sure I agree with all of it, but I'll join you in ending the conversation.

    P.S. Grind86 and I were the ones who originally started it, but I appreciate the peacemaking regardless ;)

    If you take jobs away from millions of people the economy is going to tank. Going into lockdown is what ruined the economy, not one person. But it’s for the better of the people

    but anyways. Worst 60s car? I don’t know I don’t follow anything pre 1990 really

    So I'm prolly gonna get absolutely decimated for this but the 1961 DeSoto Adventurer is pretty ugly imo:



    red car in the background is pretty cool though ngl

    How many drugs has someone to take to think that frame is a good idea?
    It looks like the sides of the car will be bent into high hell after a crash

    What GM engineer thought that making the sides of the car super weak by not having the side of the frame there was a good idea?

    I have a few:

    -The shitposters

    -The people who waste their time telling the shitposters to stop shitposting

    -The people who don't mind shitposts every now and then

    -The new users who get unfairly bullied by the grumpier users when they screw up on their first post

    -People with senses of humor as well as sense (most of the people here fit this category, including the devs)

    -The hardcore meshslap defenders

    -The people who embrace the shittiness of bad meshslaps

    -The clowns that think any real life car mod is a meshslap

    -The people who clutter the forums trying to get someone to fix a mod that's almost as old as the game itself.

    There's more of course but I don't feel like typing them out :p

    I remember in around 2017 or so that a kid with a Minecraft pfp made a bad review on the Dansworth D2500 mod page (something like "THE ENGINE DOESN'T START!!!") and a bunch of users began to bully him off the site essentially by saying things like "go crying to your mommy because you're out of chicken nuggets" and crap like that (this was back when you could post things on people's profile pages). It really annoyed me to see these people mercilessly going after this person. I remember a few days later someone said something like "Who makes an account and instantly leaves???" on his profile and a bunch of people were agreeing, like come on, seriously?
