Don’t put A**** R**** in the same sentence with the Queen of Indy ever again

@MatrixMysteries Yeah she’s full of shit at that family size and income they’d get free insurance, she just wants attention

An American family has five kids and lives on $2,600 a month after taxes. They’re told Obamacare is their lifeline. The cheapest plan? $1,700 a MONTH with a $17,000 DEDUCTIBLE. This isn’t healthcare — it’s garbage disguised as reform by Barack Obama.

@GeorgeJSaliba Without a doubt the douchiest thing I’ve seen on this app. Grow a pair.

Detailer was revving the engine in the back of the lot, so I called his boss…

@KobraSportsMed Used one of these for awhile… absolutely loved it. Worth every penny

Side sleepers with shoulder pain Getchu a Medcline pillow and report back (Not affiliated - pls.dont ban me Nikita)

If I see another tweet about the absolute clown that is Dan Orlovsky I’m going to vomit

I just can’t imagjne being this retarded

@isaac_saas Lmfao I rented out my first house…. (Sell the house dude) 😂😂😂

We listed our old house for rent 3 days ago. This morning I got my first ever call from a potential tenant. My very first one. I wish I was joking. "Hi, I have a couple questions about your listing." "Ok, fire away..." "I have an ongoing medical malpractice case and was wondering if it was okay if I pay the whole year up front because I'm not working." "Umm.. yeah, I think that would be ok? I don't see why not... I'm guessing that's why you're not working? If it's confidential, that's fine, just curious..." "Yeah, that's why... it has to do with my foot and I can't work." "Ok, what other questions do you have?" "Do you have any dog restrictions? We have a 10 year old pitbull... she's my childhood dog... she's so sweet... never had any issues with her." "Ummm... I think the HOA has restrictions on that breed." (Idk if they do, I just made that up) "Ok, just let me know. Next question. I do have a felony on my record for vehicular manslaughter. The person survived and ended up with only a broken collarbone... and umm... my dad would be living with me, he's my caregiver, he also has a felony on his record but he already did his time. It was his first felony and will be his last felonly." "Umm..." "Yeah... I know it's a lot going on but I don't have any evictions or anything... but I did break a lease when I was 18 because I'm a single mom and well, um... some things we're going on and I was just in mommy mode... but I'm about to pay all that off once I get this medical malpractice money." "Umm... we have a few other applications we're going to review and I'll get back to you." I think I'm going to sell the house.

@EricBalchunas I’m sorry Eric. Praying for you and your family.

Back today after being out of commission for a while. I lost my dad about 10 days ago. We were close. I knew the day would come, he was declining health-wise, but it didn't soften the blow. But he lived a full life and we spent good time together recently and that is comforting.

@KobraSportsMed What in the actual fuck did I just read

@devthompson11 Sorry man

It's time to flip the tables

Things you talk about with your best friend of 15 years that you played college ball with:

@ShermStu_2 This is the tweet they’ll reference when you’re on the news for being a serial killer…. “That day…. That blown AC…. That’s what started it all”

Mother-In-Law is in town.. GOOD. AC just went out.. GOOD. Can’t be fixed until Monday.. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD. Great even!! I’m so happy that I GET to go buy a portable AC unit at Home Depot!! (Photo of me suuuuuper happy attached below because that’s what I am.. HAPPY!)

@AntiDoc Just @ me next time

Skipping leg day is a lot more honest than doing leg curls, leg extensions, and leg press, then leaving.

Every dealer is using some AI tool like Podium and every dealer thinks they’re the only ones using it

@andywright675 Yeah I certainly don’t think it’s a net positive for the industry how many different companies and data points Cox Automotive owns

Frustrating news this week for my stores and for any dealer using VinCue. Effective March 31, Cox Automotive is terminating its data licensing agreements for Manheim Market Report (MMR) and Kelley Blue Book (KBB) data within the VinCue platform. VinCue shared this news directly with its dealer partners yesterday via a letter from their CEO and President. To be clear on what this means practically: dealers aren't losing access to MMR or KBB, but we are paying for those products and we are now losing our native ability within VinCue to see that data where decisions actually get made. Instead, we'll be clicking out to separate platforms mid-process. The added friction is unnecessary and creates inconsistency at exactly the moment where speed and accuracy are conducive to a great customer experience. I'll leave others to judge Cox's motivations. What I will say is this: Cox owns Manheim, Kelley Blue Book, Autotrader, and vAuto — the dominant inventory management platform that VinCue competes with directly. When the same company controls the data infrastructure and one of the primary competing software platforms, decisions about who gets to license that data natively carry real competitive weight. This is the kind of dynamic that has historically limited dealer choice and slowed innovation in the retail automotive industry. VinCue responded well. They're rolling out a new AI-driven Predictive Market Report on April 1st as a forward-looking alternative to MMR, along with several other new tools. I have confidence in their team and their roadmap. If you're a dealer evaluating your options in the inventory management space, I'd encourage you to take a hard look at VinCue, and consider joining the rapidly growing number of other dealers that have decided to make the switch. Real innovation — and real independence — matters more now than ever.

I'm so sick of this shit

I mute at least 10 accounts a day and this app and the "For You" just continue to become more and more garbage

@MikeCalcara Very well said Mike. Of course there are wildly varying conditions of used cars... but at the end of the day it's a used car. If you're wanting something with zero blemishes, that's the whole reason new cars exist.

I'm working with a client shopping for a pre-owned vehicle. He wants the tires to all match. He wants it inspected and then wants a price adjustment for anything the inspection turns up. I get it. You're spending your money and you want it to be right. But as a reminder: a pre-owned car is a used car. That's the point. The mismatched tire isn't a negotiating point. That's what happens when someone gets a flat, replaces one tire, and moves on with their life. It's normal. Saw a thread on Reddit yesterday that said it perfectly. A dealer responded to someone who brought a mechanic to inspect an 8-year-old car and then tried to renegotiate the price based on wear. The dealer's response: "Having your mechanic friend take a look at the car is totally fine. Having your mechanic friend come and point out the fact the 8-year-old car is in fact 8 years old and has the expected wear of an 8-year-old car but is pretending it should have the wear of a 2-year-old car and tells you to further negotiate from a price we already agreed to, then I am tuning you both out and looking for a new customer." That's the reality of it. That $12,000 you're saving compared to new is the price of the wear, the miles, the unknown history, and yes, the one mismatched tire from a flat two years ago. A pre-owned car is essentially as-is. The dealer is not going to do a 173-point inspection and bring every used car up to new-car condition before selling it. If they did, it wouldn't be priced like a used car. This is what I'm telling my client: If the inspection turns up something genuinely wrong—a mechanical issue, a safety concern, something that was misrepresented in the listing—that's absolutely worth negotiating. But if the inspection turns up normal wear on an 8-year-old car with 80,000 miles? That's the car you agreed to buy. The buyers who struggle most with used cars are the ones who want new-car expectations at used-car prices. It doesn't work that way. If you genuinely can't reconcile the idea of buying a car with some history, some wear, some unknowns—that's completely valid. Just buy new. The peace of mind is worth the premium for a lot of people. But if you're going used, go in with the right expectations. Know what you're buying. Get a legitimate inspection for real issues. And stop trying to negotiate the tires.

AI models are so advanced that Claude swore to me multiple times that the math on something added up to 153 when it was 24. tAkInG aLl OuR jObS
