[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

My car wouldn't start this morning. Gah, not this again. I changed the fuel pump last year! It can't be that! Everything else is not supposed to be failing already! I got it to start after a few tries, but I hate living on edge like this, wondering if it's going to start each time I try now.

I've been considering buying a new (well, new used, probably) car. My parents want me to anyway, and I wouldn't mind having something better. Any suggestions?

Have you got a Carmax out there? They were really easy to deal with when I got my (nearly new but used) car a few years back. There are some very reasonable new car options these days. Friends of mine have gotten Nissan Versas, Honda Fits, and Toyota Yaris in the last couple of months and they are all happy with their choices.

I looked into Carmax immediately, and the closest one is in Sacramento, apparently. Boo.

Nissan Versa! Like Hiro!

Hah! I'd forgotten that! Perfect! My friend who just got one LOVES it. It's compact but surprisingly roomy inside. She's over 6' and does not feel cramped in it at all.

The status is NOT quo.

I strongly recommend CarMax. They were a dream compared to the normal used car buying experience.

Mostly lurking...

Nissan Versa!

When I was doing Zipcar, the Versa was my favorite car to take out in my neighborhood. Really fabulous little car.

Jeez, people are making me hate them today. I pulled a couple of articles for a professor's RA on Friday. She just interrupted my lunch (opening my closed door and saying, "Hi, So-n-so said you might be in here!") to tell me I pulled the wrong article because the author's name was wrong -- and she points to a similar name printed on the last page of the article.

I just had to explain to a law student that she was looking at a footnote.

Nissan Versa!

We just bought one in August- it's a really nice car, I lurves it. We liked the Honda Fit as well; they were more or less the same price, we liked them both equally, but we got super low financing on the Versa, case closed!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I sat in a Fit a few days ago and really liked it.

But if you're looking for used, it's hard to go wrong with Honda or Toyota, I think.
