What’s a Green Day lyric you’ve misheard?

One of the first lyrics I misheard was from American Idiot, the title track.

Instead of “I’m not a part of the redneck agenda”,

I heard “I’m not a part of the red naked gender”.

😂😭

Which Green Day song according to you has the most ‘universal’ lyrics?

By ‘universal’, I don’t mean just ‘meaningful’ — I mean the kinda songs that can be interpreted through various emotions / in several ways. Basically fitting many types of feelings and occasions.

Let’s say you cannot mention Good Riddance, Pollyanna, 21 Guns and Waiting!

Will we ever have an Esports Monoposto Championship?

Hey everyone! I’ve been with Monoposto since the ground effect era and I truly commend how much Marco is pushing to make it as realistic as a single dev can. Of course, there are still things that can be bettered (without copyright implications), like three qualifying sessions, a formation lap, better tracks overall, etc.

But it got me thinking — if Monoposto soon becomes more realistic and more stable overall, will it ever be capable of hosting an F1 Esports kinda competitive series (like how there’s one for the actual F1 game)?

I think it sounds exciting! Would love to hear your thoughts!

How can older cars be adapted to survive higher ethanol blends in the long term?

To start off with, I am a 19 year old hardcore enthusiast from India, currently daily driving a 2009 Hyundai i10 Magna (1.2 litre NA 4 pot) that gives around 9.5-10 kmpl... and the ethanol blend situation concerns me. Saw this as an opportunity to discuss what we, as enthusiasts and owners, can realistically do to maintain our older cars in the short as well as long term.

I say long term because, let's be honest - not everyone, but a lot of the crazy-involved enthusiasts will NOT straight up sell their car and switch to a hybrid or an EV. This could be due to financial / sentimental reasons and not everyone can afford 100 octane premium petrol as well.

Regardless of the ethanol blend percentage options presented to us, our vehicles will eventually consume some quantity of it sooner rather than later.

So I'd like this post to be aimed at discussing about doable solutions to protect our vehicles as much as possible.

What I've heard till now include:

  • Ethanol-resistant fuel lines and seals
  • Upgrading fuel pumps
  • Cleaning fuel tank regularly / internal coatings
  • Storage of cars with a relatively full tank

Would like to hear all your thoughts on how you plan to take care of your cars (and to what extent you are willing to go!)

EDIT: Sorry, didn't mention the ethanol blend! We are talking E20 minimum, with push being for being higher blends - E22, E25, and so on.
