I've always been sort of vaguely curious what car company CEOs drive, if/when they aren't just being chauffeured around in the company limo. Like, what's in their garage, and if left to their own devices, what would they drive around in to run get groceries or go out to eat or whatever.

Moreso the "regular" car brands than the luxury ones. Like I assume the head of Porsche drives a high end Cayenne or 911 (or both), so that's less interesting.

But, like, does the CEO of Chevrolet drive a Chevrolet? Does he have a maxed out Suburban? Or does he step up to the Escalade, even if it's from a different division? Or does he eschew GM entirely and go for the Rolls/Bentley, or a pasta rocket?

In this case, it looks like Ford's CEO is driving the direct competition, which is interesting. Makes sense, I suppose, though it's not at all the answer I expected.

Nope, not really, it's another meme I've seen that this reminded me of. Same kind of premise, look at all these dates that overlap kind of thing. Fax machine invented, samurai still a thing, Lincoln still a thing, therefore samurai sent fax to Lincoln.

Since this one brought up the samurai too, I just thought it would be funny to merge them together and have the samurai in this party be that same one that supposedly sent the fax.

Hurry onward, pencil, or you'll soon be dead!

Wow, there were 7 levels in that game? That's 6 more than I ever saw!

Was that the samurai that sent a fax to Abraham Lincoln?

And it's not all either. He's only going to ~~kill~~ maim the Democrats. And black people. And brown people. And LGBT people. And women. And non-Christians. So, you know, as long as you're not in one of those groups, you'll be totally fine. For now. But maybe don't get too comfortable.

Yup, same. Upgraded from P6 to P7 for $20 a couple Black Fridays ago. The P7 is starting to get a little wonky, so I'm waiting to see what the sales look like this year, it'll almost certainly be either a Pixel 9 or Nothing Phone (2).

No idea. Yamaha was doing pianos long before they were doing motorcycles, so it can't be them. I can't think of a company that started with motorcycles and then moved into pianos.

If I had a nickel for every story I've read today about a clemency request in a decades-old shaken baby syndrome case, I'd have two nickels, which doesn't sound like a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
