    Im dreading researching solar lights for the yard. Last time I did it I got frustrated. I need like 8-10. I want to be able to see in the back in case I let my dog out at night and coyotes or deer are back there. I bought 2 and they work for like a few hours on a full charge during the summer. Not very well during the winter. And they aren't cheap to begin with just for shits and giggles.

    So I get no context other than MLS telling me she is about to win a car.

    I don't know the make/model - if she is on some back alley game show - no idea.

    100% I think Ethan will at some point schedule a PT cruiser to pick me up for an important event of some kind.

    I literally have it in my head every time someone is coming to pick me up.

    Is this a real thing? Do people still scoff at others for driving “foreign” cars?

    I gathered it's less a foreign thing and more a Nissan being a lower-tiered brand. Which was also news to me. Their decently mid-tier cars here in England.

    The reality that Ethan and MLS inhabit has a much more ambitious "Random Event Generator" than the rest of us so it's not even a surprise really.

    The joke was that the Nissan Sentra is a $20k car. (That b0ne5 apparently drives in a suit).

    So apparently we don't own it, it's a one year paid for lease by the dealership - so this car undoubtedly will be in contention with our neighbor's daughter's car for the most towed car in the city.

    not really something you can do with cars. Dangerous Instrumentality doctrine opens him up to way too much liability.

    PSA never lend your car to ANYONE.

    Wouldn't a sublease shift the liability to the new signing party? I see lease assumptions on car forums all the time, but definitely never done it.

    You can assume someone's lease, but you can't waive your own liability when it comes to someone driving your car. It's why car dealerships have insurance minimums as a term of the lease.

    But seriously we'll definitely decline this unless there is some other strategy that I am currently not privy to.

    I don't have much of a need for a Sentra to sit on the street for a year.

    If you’re worried about liability from loaning out the car, just sublet out your house and live in the car.

    Not sure if he's saying never does or never has. If the former, I'm in the same boat. I've only used it a handful of times ever and none in the last couple years.
