Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for sale
You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further. The 1999 Toyota Corolla. Let's talk about features. Bluetooth: nope Sunroof: nope Fancy wheels: nope Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn. Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End. You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up. This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children. Things this car is old enough to do: Vote: yes
Consent to sex: yes Rent a car: it IS a car This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would. Interesting facts: This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey. In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional." When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey. Favorite food: spaghetti Favorite tv show: Alf Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the-
When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine." Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla. Google map of cars location
Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.
Gonna make a coffee table book out of all the terrible straight pubs with one rainbow balloon arch to celebrate Mardi Gras...HiGay!
Have they considered asking AI to make them one?
I tried to FOI this app, which the Department said it built to track job provider punishments. It turns out it doesn't exist, and they've lied to the Commonwealth Ombudsman www.crikey.com.au/2026/02/27/r...

From me: The architect of the Robodebt scheme, who was told it was unlawful even as he delivered it for the government, is still employed in the public service, now at the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions. And in a senior governance and risk role. www.crikey.com.au/2026/02/20/r...
Deposing the leader and losing her vacated seat he'd have to own but I don't think any reasonable person would blame him for the SA state election, Libs down 60-40 for yonks against wildly popular premier.
I think this is the most sensible policy to balance their base and the science though: lift the ban, let market decide (then it never happens).

Labor actually already created the female majority by appointing Jagot then overturned it by applying Beech-Jones

On track for 26 slams by age 31. Take it to the bank.
Chart of men's singles tennis grand slam titles by age. SHowing that Alcaraz has one 1 more than Nadal, 4 more than Feder and 6 more than Djokovic had at the same age
Alcaraz has a long way to go, but he's started bloody well
A lot of Novak people shouting at me he has 24 slams.
They make the same mistake as their hero: There is no number of slams that requires me to like you.
