Get the Iago mug.A sub-compact car made by Subaru, from 1987-1994. Like the Geo Metro and Chevy Sprint, it used a 3-cylinder engine. The Justy engine had a larger displacement volume, though -- 1189cc vs. 993cc.
The only drawback is that it wasn't designed to to be driven FAST on the highway. But if it's not pushed to its limits, it'll certainly hold out longer than most of that American crap on the road today.

With the ever-rising gas prices, we may have to drive Justy's from now on. But will America's growing waistlines be able to fit into a mini-car like that?

Get the Justy mug.The "Capacitance Electronic Disc" system, invented by RCA; also known as 'SelectaVision' and 'video records.'
RCA was trying to edge out the pre-existing VHS and LaserDisc formats, but ultimately failed in the long run. The format lasted from 1981 until 1986, and about 1700 titles were released on CED.
Movies came in large plastic caddies, which you inserted, as a whole, into a CED player, which disengaged the disc from the caddy when you pulled it back out (so you wouldn't touch the disc with your bare hands, which could cause disc damage.) A stylus picked up the audio/video data from the disc, which spun at 450 RPM.
To remove the videodisc, you simply push the caddy back into the player, and the disc re-engages itself in the caddy.
Like a CLV laserdisc, CEDs have one hour of content on each side... but you must remove and re-insert the disc upside-down, to continue playing (like with the early laserdisc players.)
If a film ran over two hours by a significant amount of time, it was released on a set of two CEDs. Otherwise, time compression was used to fit the movie onto one disc.
The estimated life of a CED videodisc is 500 playings. Not too bad.

Get the CED mug.A "Recreational Vehicle". Chiefly used in reference to a motorhome, but can also apply to travel trailers, airplanes, ATVs, etc.
You've probably heard of people going RV'ing, which is the act of traveling in a motorhome or trailer.

Get the RV mug."Popo" and "Nana", from the early NES game "Ice Climber." Until they appeared in the Gamecube game "Super Smash Bros. Melee", no one knew who they were.
The NESkimos got their asses kicked off the mountain again... Dammit! *takes out the cartridge and chucks it across the room*

Get the NESkimos mug.Fucking While Intoxicated.
Getting drunk off your ass leads to lowered inhibitions... and sometimes, waking up next to an ugly beast in the morning.

John couldn't get a date, so he hung out in the bar and drank... and drank... and drank, and then left with the first person who said yes. When he went back to school on Monday morning, he was the laughing stock, and his classmates charged him with FWI.

Get the FWI mug.One of the best video games EVER made. Based on the comic book of the same name, "The Punisher" was a Capcom CPS-1 game that hit arcades in 1993, and would be released on Sega Genesis the following year.
Oddly enough, the game also features Nick Fury, who starred in an entirely different comic book.
