I bid you good morrow my dear acquaintances, I have just acquired a stallion of great power and clarity. This steed goes from standing, to a full gallop in ample time. Tis a marvel to be recognized throughout the breeders of the world!
What takes do you have to share, my dear friend?
(Basically, explain shit in ways that would make sense back in the day. Horses = cars, for an example)

I actually remember that it was pretty awesome, if you think you can pull it off I say go for it. I can't think of a situation where writing would be a bad thing to do.
I'm not necessarily rewriting, just basically adding and refining, so it won't be too bad.

How so?
People are beginning to take the environment more seriously.

I'm digging through my computer and I can across the three books I wrote a few years ago. And Ive been sitting here thinking, maybe I should write them over. They are pretty good as is, but I feel like I could make them a lot darker and realistic now.
Those of you who may remember, I pulled members of the community and used them in the 2nd book. I used real members, their personalities and real names, all completely fleshed out. I had a huge thread back in b.old.
The premise of the books was simple. A civil war had broken out in the US and a tyrannical regime had taken over, in the first few years the nation propelled itself forward and progressed at an alarming rate. But as time went on, the government began to be very oppressive, eventually shutting down it's borders and secluding itself from the global world. A rebel army fought to bring back the United States as we knew it, but ultimately failed, miserably. Survivors of the war scattered and imbedded themselves, dropping and giving up on their cause. The war was wiped from history, it was never taught, never spoken of, completely forgotten.
The first one deals with a father, many years after the civil war, recounting and telling his son what happened. Every night they would sit down in the basement and talk in secret, knowing that if the father was discovered to be a Patriot, he would be executed. It also deals with the sons coming of age, and trusting in his father. Being that the son was raised with the new regime and supported their actions, he questions his father and ultimately decides what he is going to do with the information he is given.
The second and third follow the sons journey after that point. The second installment is a heavy handed dark tale. In almost every way it is written to be as desperate and discouraging as possible. It has it's moments. It is intended to make you laugh, make you angry, and make you cry. To bring for the harsh realities and decisions that can be life and death. And the weight of having to take care of those you love. If your a parent, you will cry. If you have a family, you will cry. If you have ever been depressed you will cry. If you have a brother or sister, you will cry. Have best friends? Same result.
It is made to be as gratifying and realistic as possible. There is no plot armor, characters come and go. No one is safe. Some justified, some not. It's meant to make you feel overwhelmed.
The third installment is focused on the resurgence of hope, whether or not it is false or true is explained. Half of it was written by an English friend of mine for narrative reasons. It is the wrap up, and answers all questions, and ties everything up.
I had always considered a prequel, sort of explaining how things were months before the initial war from another perspective, but the idea never gained steam. I'm not re-evaluating it, and am open to using the same method I did with the second book and drafting you guys.
So, what do you think?
(If my grammar and spelling is shit, blame mobile.)

What do you say when you see your TV moving around in the dark of night? Typically, we shoot first, ask questions later.

If you choose 3, why do you donut the success and advancement of society and humanity?
So it's donuts that will be the end of us.

The Earth is running out of resources and we are pressed with options.
- Do we look to the stars and try to find a new home planet?
- Do we search for more environmentally conservative ways of doing things and preserve what we have?
- Does shit hit the fan before we hit either option?
If you choose 1, are you afraid or in awe of the preposition of humanity exploring the stars? And the possibility of eventually having to move planets. The idea of leaving the only thing you know, the only thing humanity has ever known.
If you choose 2, what would be the first thing you would push for?
If you choose 3, why do you doubt the success and advancement of society and humanity?

Looks a little pricey... is that why they decided to put it under the Acura brand?
No idea
Well, I mean, a 130,000 base for a Honda would be a little much no? Especially compared to some performance domestic options.
Good point actually.

I pretty much only like German and British cars. (Only Italian manufacture I like is Lamborghini)
I'd rather have this tbh
I feel like this new Merc looks much more toned down when compared to it's successor, the SLS
It's meant to rival the 911. Although whilst I do like it I'm not too fond of the slanted bonnet, I much prefer the S class coupe.
I'd get either one of those or a Cayman.
Not a fan of the S class coupe, stick with the Cayman
It's the perfect 2 door car. I've been in a 4 door S class and it was extremely luxurious whilst still being able to move swiftly at high speeds. The 2 door version is even sportier but still has that luxury which is nice for when you just want to drive normally.
I dislike the new body style they dropped on it. I'm sure it's very comfortable but the exterior, to me, is sub par
It's flashy but it's not too extravagant like a Lambo or Ferrari. I prefer that tbh.
Extravagance is my forte

Not that big of a fan of the new NSX but I think it will grow on me.
I love it, sweet aesthetic and good specs for the price
I still like the '95 NSX more but this one is nice.
Oh don't get me wrong the '95 NSX is gorgeous, but this one, this one does so much right
