        You don’t know that. The people of Kepler-452b might well be suffering under a truly awful automobile industry.

    It’s become very popular. Jaguar, Lexus, Audi, they’ll use glues at some point. So I’m very surprised. It’s not as if it’s an unknown science. I’ve not heard [of problems] anywhere else.”

    Yeah, none of those brands are trying to be cheap as shit death traps though.

    I also find it fun how i heard this morning that it hasn’t even been fixed in production yet.
