The Newest Year

What a year. This has been quite an interesting adventure. Who knew there was a niche for car enthusiasts who like to laugh at the absurdities of car culture? It’s barely worked out so far, but it squeaked by. It’s been a nice experiment.

I know you’re thinking, “This isn’t funny,” and you’re right, for once.

I kind of wanted to write something different from the usual that sounds all newsy and shit. I know this is going to break the fourth wall a little bit, but whatever. I don’t know. It’s been a great year. I’ve received a ton of support, and I want to thank you all for helping me keep this stupid corner alive. You guys must all have half-finished project cars like I do. That’s pretty cool, because what else would we relate on other than cars? I’m simple. We’re simple. But very intelligent, I’m sure.

Man, this is hard. I feel like it’s much easier to write articles than to speak from the heart.

Anyway, I think I want to finish my cars this year. So, you know, we’re going to keep doing the ninetyoneoctane thing, but also work on car stuff on the side. Hopefully it works out. And if it doesn’t, then I’ll just repost this same article next New Year’s and pretend I meant that year.

Speaking of that, I can’t use any actual numbers. I don’t think I have up to this point, so that’s perfect.

So yes, Happy New Year. I wish you all the best. I hope all your car dreams come true. I hope your savings accounts stay healthy enough to order all the parts you want. And don’t forget to help out a homie when they need a wrench, or a beer, or just someone to stand there and talk to while they do all the work. That can be helpful too.

Later, homies.
