Nickelback isn’t anywhere near as bad as people say it is. Sure, I won’t buy their CDs or go to their concerts, but I don’t mind them on the radio. What are your bad takes?

The Vantage doesn’t look great, neither the new generation, nor the last. The DB11 is the best looking Aston since the DB6.

Being a huge fan of the FIAT 126p, I will argue that they weren’t bad cars...for cheap, easy to maintain, easy to park, etc city cars, they were fine.

...but they are small, Polish-built, Italian-designed cars built until 2000 based on a platform from 1957. Refinement, safety, performance, handling, build quality or reliability probably aren’t their strong points.

.........but I want one anyway. :D

Microwaves that require you to press a TIME COOK button before inputting a time are the work of the devil. If I want to microwave something for a minute and thirty seconds, I should be able to just type in ONE THREE ZERO START. but Noooooo. Instead as soon as I press ONE the microwave automatically starts with a one minute timer. If I want a custom microwave time, I have to first press TIME COOK and then enter the desired time to cook, AND THEN press START. why?!?

Was this a bad take, or just an oddly specific warm take?

But you can just hit 1 and then the start button adds 30sec. Idk why they didn’t just do it for all the numbers.

No this is a correct take. Meaning it’s not a bad take. Meaning you did bad at sharing a bad take. Adding extra steps to simple things is a crime against humanity.

There’s nothing wrong with a decent automatic transmission. They let you keep both hands on the wheel and focus on cornering instead of going faster/slower. There’s a reason all the high-end supercars have gone to paddle shifters.

I have mixed opinions on supercars that sit in garages and are never driven. I appreciate that there’s a few pristine specimens that are kept clean for posterity’s sake, but the other half of me loves to see them driven hard, and getting covered in dirt.

Someone else mentioned Aston Martin. I think so many of their cars look alike, it’s hard to tell them apart. It’s time that they move on and try something that looks a little different.

I’d gladly love to own a Tesla Model X, even if all the body panels are misaligned. I want something to haul my family and I around, that has decent room, and excellent fuel economy. The automatic doors are also nice to prevent door-dings on neighboring cars, although I think they are too complex for what they are. (Sliding doors would have done just fine, and been a better long-term option). After working in the oil and gas industry, I can see that it isn’t the way of the future, and I’d rather switch to something electric sooner than later. Besides, all that low-end torque! A Model X would do basically everything I’d ever need a family hauler to do, with the exception of maybe a roof rack. A Model S would also work.

Wow. Now that I’ve got all that off my chest...

This is a good bad take.

(Bbq chicken pizza is okay, but I’ll never choose it over meatlovers or pepperoni-bacon).

1) Agreed, but I like a good auto because I’m lazy in traffic and have other things on my mind when driving in snow.

2) I’ve said it before, a car can only truly be appreciated when it’s doing what it was engineered to do.

3) I disagree.

Solid takes!

The only reason some Americans hop on the Nickelback hate wagon is the same reason they hate Justin Bieber and Celine Dion.

They’re popular and apparently that incites jealousy of the fact that something non-American is dominating in the English-speaking world.

These are the same people who loathe non-American spelling and pronunciation.

There, my bad take response to your bad take.

Another one of my bad takes is that red turn signals are the devil, especially one that shares the same brake light AND tail light bulb. Way to be a gigantic single point failure. I can’t believe this is still legal in the US.
