I am very smart
Everyone knows it's the most intelligent person in the room who has to remind you he's intelligent. At least you won't bite your tongue as you eat every meal through a tube.

I'd never heard of CAFE fees before;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_average_fuel_economy?wprov=sfla1
I think this is the specific bit that you are referencing;
CAFE has separate standards for "passenger cars" and "light trucks" even if the majority of "light trucks" are being used as passenger vehicles. The market share of "light trucks" grew steadily from 9.7% in 1979 to 47% in 2001, remained in 50% numbers up to 2011.
Interesting also;
In addition, a Gas Guzzler Tax is levied on individual passenger car models (but not trucks, vans, minivans, or SUVs) that get less than 22.5 miles per US gallon (10.5 L/100 km).
Neat

These were the words I used when discussing an upcoming potential termination,
"But the person I'll be on the other side of [this crisis of maybe termination] will be no more absolutely or permanently diminished than the one I became after any other of the subjectively substantial life-changing crises."
I've lived through some pretty painful shit. I feel quite angry about the misery I consider my life to currently be, but I still choose to live. With these words I was explaining that this "disaster" couldn't be any more miserable than the sundry other miseries I've learned to live with. The consequences of this "crisis" may absolutely be something I will hate deeply and bitterly, but I doubt it's going to be the straw that gets me to break this camel's back.
Is that not just a picture of Heath Ledger? If that is a cosplay then goddamn...
It's funny how one can always pick the leftist out of a crowd by looking for the person willing to respect strangers
