Sabrina, why donāt you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything Iāve heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collinsā solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, donāt just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

The story is told in the first-person by Patrick Bateman, a wealthy, narcissistic, vain Manhattan investment banker who supposedly lives a double life as a serial killer. Alison Kelly of The Observer notes that while "some countries \[deem it\] so potentially disturbing that it can only be sold shrink-wrapped", "critics rave about it" and "academics revel in its transgressive and postmodern qualities".

i like both, to an extent. i guess i technically have 2 domestics, but my SS has given me alittle more respect for the FI sport-compact cars. i still think v8s are way more badass, but something is to be said for the small cars with boost. its fun and they can be very impressive. i think you get idiots on both sides, obviouslyā¦but you are always gonna get more on the import/compact side because the shit is cheaper and the cars are usually more āeverydayā

Like smokey said, thats generally because kids can typically only afford imports and cheaper fwd domestics. Most younger kids cant afford a v8 powered car, let alone the insurance on it.

Thats why i used the terms āgenerallyā, and āmostā. And also being 18, youāre not really considered a kid anymore. But congrats for working to get what you truly want and keeping the streets clear of rice.

Wowā¦ after reading through this entire thread, this is the only sensible thing I found in the entire thing.
Who cares if itās a domestic or an import? Who cares if itās a V8 or a little I4? If itās fast, itās fast. Nuff said.
