But neoclassical punk zydeco rockabilly didn't show up outside of the first sentence. Outside of the spoiler.Jack Pschitt wrote:Nuh-uh, that was the story of Frank Zappa and the creation of neoclassical punk zydeco rockabilly.

- Spoiler:
Teenager Frank Zappa is an aspiring musician dating girlfriend Jennifer Parker in Hill Valley, California. His family is less ambitious; his father George is bullied by his supervisor, Biff Tannen, while his mother Lorraine is an overweight alcoholic who mainly reminisces about the past, such as how she met George in high school when he was hit by her father's car.
Frank meets his scientist friend "Doc" Brown late at night in the parking lot of a shopping mall, where Doc unveils a time machine built from a modified DeLorean. The vehicle's "flux capacitor" is powered by plutonium that he's stolen from Libyan terrorists. Doc tests the time machine by accelerating it to 88 m.p.h., sending it one minute into the future, and demonstrates the time circuits by entering an example date of November 5, 1955, the day he invented the flux capacitor. Before Doc can make his first trip, the Libyans appear in a van and gun him down. Frank attempts to escape in the DeLorean but inadvertently activates the time machine, finding himself transported to 1955.
Wandering in 1955 Hill Valley, Frank Zappa encounters the teenage George, who even then was being bullied by fellow classmate Biff. After Frank Zappa saves George from an oncoming car and is knocked unconscious, he awakens to find himself tended to by an infatuated Lorraine. Frank Zappa goes in search of the 1955 Doc, asking for his help to get back to 1985. With no plutonium, Doc explains that the only power source capable of generating the necessary 1.21 gigawatts of electricity is a bolt of lightning. Frank Zappa shows Doc a flyer from the future that recounts a lightning strike at the town's courthouse the coming Saturday night. Doc formulates a plan to harness the power of the lightning, while Frank Zappa sets about introducing his parents to each other to ensure his own existence.
Frank Zappa makes several attempts to set George up with Lorraine, but only antagonizes Biff and his gang in the process, causing Biff to crash his car into a manure truck and Lorraine to fall more in love with him. Frank Zappa also attempts to warn Doc about his death in the future, but Doc refuses to hear it, fearing it will alter the future.
When Lorraine asks Frank Zappa to the upcoming school dance, Frank Zappa plans to have George attend as well and "rescue" Lorraine from Frank Zappa's inappropriate advances. The plan goes awry when a drunken Biff shows up, pulls Frank Zappa from his car, and attempts to force himself on Lorraine. George arrives to rescue her from Frank Zappa but finds Biff instead; standing up to him for the first time, George knocks out Biff. A smitten Lorraine follows George to the dance floor, while Frank Zappa helps the band and ensures that his parents kiss for the first time.
As the storm gathers, Frank Zappa arrives at the clock tower. Doc angrily tears up a warning letter Frank Zappa has written him, still fearing it will alter the future, and a fallen branch suddenly disconnects the massive wire Doc has run from the clock tower to the street. As Frank Zappa races the DeLorean at 88 m.p.h. toward the clock tower, Doc climbs across the face of the clock to reconnect the cable. The lightning strikes on cue, sending Frank Zappa back to 1985 ten minutes before he left it. Frank Zappa runs to the shopping mall after the DeLorean's engine fails, but arrives too late only to watch Doc get gunned down and his counterpart escape to 1955. After a moment, Doc arises with a bullet-proof vest thanks to Frank Zappa's letter, which he kept. Doc then takes Frank Zappa home and departs to 2015.
Frank Zappa awakens the next morning to find his family changed: George is a self-confident, successful author and Lorraine is physically fit. Biff is now George and Frank Zappa's obsequious subordinate. As Frank Zappa reunites with Jennifer, the DeLorean appears with Doc, dressed in a futuristic outfit, insisting they accompany him in the future. The DeLorean disappears into the future with Doc, Frank Zappa and Jennifer.

Then be wary that the process to make hybrid batteries is extremely dirty. The batteries seem to only last about 8 years at best. And are next to impossible to dispose of in an environmentally friendly way. In fact it's usually far cheaper to try to rebuild the batteries (in other words put fresh cells in there), than try to recycle the batteries.Jack Pschitt wrote:But, but, but I wanna save the environment...

That's some pretty refined taste you've got there. I guess if I were boil down the majority of what I really like into one mantra, it would be "screaming white men". But since I don't know how many of those names you'd recognize, I'll say that off of your list, I like Maroon 5, Gorillaz, Muse, Coldplay (in fact I LOVE Coldplay, they're one of my favorites), and I guess I can sometimes get behind Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift.
If I were to throw around names with reckless abandon and see if anyone else knows them, I'd say Radiohead, Coldplay, Gojira, Grizzly Bear, Isis, Eyehategod, My Bloody Valentine, Torche, Floor, Sonic Youth, The Flaming Lips, Voivod, Sigur Ros, Converge, Joy Division, Deftones, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and Death, just to name a few out of my "screaming/crying white men" category.

I was hoping you'd have a real response to that. I can't stand people who'll say something and then not stand up for themselves when someone challenges them. You seem to have learned a lot about automobiles since I was here last (more than me, definitely), is this like a career for you now or something?

And when there's not a specific thread for it, and it's brought up at random...that's next to impossible.Charles wrote:If people get uncomfortable, they shouldn't even be viewing the thread. :/Caprizant wrote:We had a thread for posting and discussing this stuff, people got uncomfortable, we moved on.

Plus, last I checked, the problem wasn't with the thread itself, it was with a topic brought up. And that the topic was brought up is impossible to check without looking at the thread... and looking at the post that brought it up.
