The United States Government Has Gone Too Far This Time
First they came for the communists,
Then they came for the socialists,
Then they came for the trade unionists,
Then they came for me,
In an act of almost incomprehensible stupidity, ignorance, and just plain mean-spiritedness, the Federal Government of the United States of America has apparently struck a blow against motoring enthusiasts across the country.
The notice doesn’t make it absolutely plain that the G stepped in, but why else would Continental stop distributing and forcibly recall a product that has, to my knowledge, never been used to mislead or cheat or otherwise injure a motorist? I mean, sure, I’m running Super Blue in Boxxy, my 986S Anniversary Edition, right now, and driving it around on the street, but that isn’t hurting anyone. Super Blue is made for and sold to people who know what to do with it. There’s no risk of any kind here. I feel sick to my stomach. Yeah, it was never as good as, say, Motul 600, but it was the everyman’s brake fluid.
I’m going to wrap this up because I start to channel Thomas Paine, but seriously… with all the problems facing the United States in the year 2013, is SUPER BLUE RACE FLUID the biggest priority? The hell with this. If you guys need me, I’ll be out in the woods building a cabin or something.

And yet they continue to allow these fruit flavored, I mean scented, cleaning products on any supermarket shelf. http://www.buzzfeed.com/copyranter/introducing-new-delicious-fabuloso-fruit-drinks
Hell, while everybody was arguing about who's the blame and political parties and such, I did the All-American thing. I went on amazon and bought a couple of cans. I'll keep them under my bed for a couple of years, bring 'em out, put 'em on ebay and double my money. I figure the German fanbois will start going through withdrawal in that time.
