We do not have any credible news outlets anymore.

5th or 6th grade id sneak my moms 81 dodge charger 2.2 out in the middle of the night... i'd push it down the street a little ways and start it up and go cruising the dirt roads outside town. and then jr high and high school happened... me and my friends were total degenerates. drinking cough syrup ...
