    1. Slayer is great. My favorite album from them is Reign in Blood.
    2. Tumblr or Reddit.
    3. I don't really like it.
    4. I don't care too much for that one either.
    5. I have a few favorite cars, mostly from GM. For a daily that is both quick and fun at normal speeds, my Buick Regal is my favorite. My favorite off roader is a squarebody Suburban, but my GMT400 Suburban is good enough for me because it was cheap, 4x4, and two-tone. As for rare cars, my Buick Reatta is my favorite because of how weird it is and the fact that it has so much history in my family.

    It's strange that the Suburban was made by Chevy and GMC. I know a lot of people use the same look with a different name, but as far as I know, these were exactly the same. Why was this?

    I think they're better then The Beatles. Disorder (Judgment Night Movie Soundtrack) and Bitter Piece (Diabolus In Musica) are really good songs.
    Tumblr, I've heard bad things about. Reddit, "tRades cauSE pAin gO tO uNi iNstEaD boo hoo hoo". Give me a break, have you guys even been in trades?
    I know right, absolute garbage.
    That's fine. I like it, though. Eyes Wide Open is a really good song from this band.
    You like GM cars? Cool.

    I have 5 more questions for you.

    1. Have you ever gotten hurt on your job?
    2. What do you think of Psych2Go?
    3. Do you like System Of A Down?
    4. Do you like this Slayer song?



    And 5. Do you like Fords too?

    I've never driven a Ford. It would be interesting to drive one someday, though.

    I think they just called them the same thing back in the 1930s in their first generation. Knowing GM, it was probably also due to the fact that it was cheaper to produce one badge.

    I'm not surprised, Instead of making the actual GMC body different. They just put a different badge and maybe a different grille, I'm not sure. Anyways, do you feel like answering 5 more questions from me? If you don't, I don't blame you.

    1. I'm assuming that you mean when working on cars in general. A few times, but not that bad and only from me being stupid. For example, I was installing a lower control arm in a Crown Victoria and pinched one of my fingers because I wrapped my hands around the control arm as I pushed it, which crushed my finger between the control arm and frame rail. I was fine the next day.
    2. I don't watch self help videos, so I am not familiar with them.
    3. I have heard System Of A Down before. They seem to be decent, but I normally listen to music from other bands.
    4. Yes, although it is not my favorite song from them.

    I always thought as GMC as GM's "cost-effective" brand, considering a majority of their cars in the old days were mostly just rebadged Chevrolets from the beginning. Even now they technically have the Savana (Express), and in another case it is still similar to some of its brothers (in this case, I'm talking about the GMTK2 gen that looks somewhat similar to the Escalade).

    1. Oh boy, so that just makes Reddit bs again just like the upward mobility thing, doesn't it?
    2. Huh, okay then. You seem like somebody who considers mental health very important.
    3. I love them. Serj Tankian is a great vocalist. I like ATWA, Toxicity, Chop Suey, Aerials, etc. Really good band in my opinion.
    4. You like Disorder and Fords?

    How would you feel about listening to Disorder while driving a Ford?

    GMC has been a slightly more upscale version of Chevrolet since at least the early 1970s. They basically are the same as Chevrolet with slightly different styling and a few more standard features.

    Huh, I didn't know that. I thought the badge and the grille were the only different things between GMC and Chevy. I have a question for you and @appesh1. Have you two ever watched the news? If you haven't, I don't blame you. It's fear mongering garbage. I won't even go into the political aspect of it because of the forum rules, plus Harkin Labs Gaming. You don't seem to care that much about TV anyways.

    1. You can get hurt really fast when working with heavy machinery, but it if you take the right precautions and are comfortable with the equipment the risk isn't that bad.
    2. I take mental health seriously, but I know myself, not some video made by some company to make money. If I have a rough day I work on my cars, work on my bike, go on a drive, play video games, ride my bike, or watch TV.
    3. Ok
    4. Disorder is decent. I like other songs more though. I do not like Fords though. Some of their cars are ok, but they try to be innovative and change things a lot. GM will build the same thing for as long as they can to save money on R/D. This makes it easy to find parts for their cars at cheap prices. Ford on the other hand, changes their designs and often overcomplicates them fairly often. When they do build something for a long time, like the 300 CUI i6, it tends to be of good quality but that is an anomaly for Ford.

    I watch the news every once in a while. Mostly for local events and the weather though.

    There's a news station (that's local in my area I think) my grandma watches and I really dislike it. It's fear mongering bs. My grandma likes it and I can totally see why. When I figure how to make YouTube videos. Maybe I could make a video of me reacting to it, but that's gonna be a good several months (at least) in to the future, I think.
    Good point, if Reddit seriously thinks you'll automatically get hurt when working in trades, they're most likely wrong.
    Yeah, Psych2Go don't know you, nor should they. I don't know if Psych2Go are solely after money, but I mean. You gotta pay your bills, somehow. Keep in mind that this is coming from a person that thinks money is really important.
    Yep, that's what I say sometimes.
    This may be not good with cars, but I think changing and evolving is really good with entertainment, I think.
    Yeah, the news is a great way to get either irritated or anxious. Tbh, I don't even trust the news that much when it comes to weather.

    I have a question, do you watch Hulu or Netflix any or no?
