I've seen this on so many cars that originate with a Japanese brand (and one E46 imported from Japan) that I always assumed it was because of the cultural significance of golf in Japan.

Yup, press offices don't care about this sort of thing at all. Uh-huh. Sure. 🦖

Like, I scour lots of sites for SpeedBites every day and it's just crazy how bad it is now. Today, a major UK auto site has the wrong "your" in its subhead. I've also just checked back into one I flagged with the brand several months ago and it *still* has "Maxda" in the headline.

He tries very hard to disguise his location by cutting away from village name signs, but it's pretty stupid to do so as that is quite clearly all shot around Ulley near Rotherham. Well, clearly if you grew up nearby 😁

Anyone got any SYP contacts? Also it's worth reporting his channel.

So, fun twist. Contacted an editorial board member for the above site through LinkedIn, and in less than 24hr the writer was terminated and all his articles were removed...

I forgot where exactly I saw it, but "How come big film studios keep being like 'Jared Leto may have allegations, but at least he looks weird, stars in box office bombs, and isn't a good actor'?" has stuck with me.

Is it weird I'm mentally singing "Rain Rain Barkels" to the tune of the old "Big Big Loader" ad?
