I am a sucker for LEGO games, and once I heard that Hill Climb Adventure was getting a LEGO spin-off I was intrigued. I only played the first one and while it was fun, it didn't have a ton of depth. So I was pleased to find that this game actually has depth and a lot of content. One of the main midgame roadblocks is building new cars, so I thought I'd make a tier list talking about which ones players should prioritze. I have all but 2 cars, and so I feel comfortable breaking the ones I own down:

S Tier

Ace is far and away the best car in the game, in a game where the main hurdles are steep inclines and maining balance, a car that's great at both is a must build. Ace has amazing downforce that makes it easier to control than many other cars, and the speed helps it complete maps better than many other cars. It's only real weakness is that it's bad at getting air time, but that's solved with the other S tier.

Old School is really good for how early you can get it if you're smart. It was the 3rd car I unlocked, and it helped me unlock a bunch more cars that weren't as good. It is super lightweight, making it ideal for reaching high parts of a map. Once it picks up speed, it also goes extremely quick. This car also has the ability to go through roadblocks, but tbh that isn't a big deal and only makes the other car with this ability worthless. It does have one major weakness involving the fact it has poor grip and is thus bad at inclines if the car isn't already moving fast, but the Ace can do that.

A Tier

Hill Climber MK 2 is a fine car, and for being the starter one is pretty solid. As with any starter vehicle in a game like this, it does a bit of everything, and is a solid fallback if you don't have a lot of the specialist cars.

Race Car is a perfectly fine car, but it's actually harder to unlock than the Ace and is not quite as good in nearly every way. It is faster, but I find that isn't very useful.

B Tier

Bus is better than you might initially think, as it has good speed, control, and fuel. However the wheels being far from the sides of the car makes it a bit hard to control and I often find myself running over the passengers at the worst times.

C Tier

Cave Crawler is not a good car, it's slow and hard to control. However it has an exclusive gear item that is required for unlocking everything, so it can't be lower than C tier.

D Tier

Buggy has only one redeeming feature, it is unlocked early. Thus it has some use in the early game and is used in a decent number of side quests. However the car is really bad, with terrible controls and cannot stay grounded. The car is pretty much a new player trap, and should be dropped as soon as a better car is built.

F Tier

Hill Climber MK 1 is a funny concept, but it's worse than the Old School in every way, it's harder to control and has trouble staying grounded. I wish this car at least had some redeeming qualities, but it really doesn't. Even the ability to go through roadblocks is also given to Old School.

Monster is far and away the worst car in the game. It's slow, big, weak, and hard to control. It has literally no redeeming qualities. It is also one of the last cars you unlock, making it even worse. I can't think of a single good reason it's even in the game.

Law Rider and Hill Climber MK 3 are not included, as I haven't built those yet, my best guess is they are middle of the pack in terms of quality. !g*mers

For context, /r/sayulita is mostly about people talking about how they got horribly sick from contaminated water. I have no idea what Sayulita is but it seems like some sort of a third world country.

https://old.reddit.com/r/sayulita/comments/1c5xd0o/is_the_diarrhea_that_bad/

>Back home after a recent trip. One full week+ of nausea, stomach pain, vomiting and horrible diaherrea for the kids. Same without the vomiting for the adults, but still low energy. By far the worst experience I've had in 30 years of trips all over Mex, Asia, etc. No way in heck I would visit there again until there is some sort of real change, absolutely not worth it. Too bad as it's a great place for surfing, hiking, mountain biking, eating, but basic sanitation seems awful. I look forward to more Mex trips, just not to Sayulita, and I don't know if the kids will ever want to go anywhere again,it was really hard on them. Waiting for test results after visiting the doc back home. Sorry to be negative, but I wish we had believed the sickness reports and not just thought, "Standard Mex, it'll be ok."

>Went to Sayulita this weekend for a wedding. 16 out of 20 people in our friend group got sick, either travelers diarrhea or possibly norovirus: chills, fever, throwing up, nausea, stomach pains, incessant diarrhea. We ate street food, had drinks with ice, swam in ocean for a day, should've brushed teeth with bottled water; so didn't play it as safe as we prob should have.

etc etc

2016 Democrat: Wait, you're telling me that America's first racist white nationalist president is running again in 2024?

2024: Yes, but he's losing white support.

2024: Well, actually he's ahead in the polls because his black support has sextupled.

2016 Dem: You're kidding, right?

2024: No, I'm dead serious.

2016 Dem: OK, but the Latinx will never vote for him.

2024: His support among Latinx might even be higher than it is among blacks.

2016 Dem: This is crazy. I feel like moving to Canada.

2024: Don't despair. White people might save the day for Biden.

2016 Dem: Wait, Biden is still alive?

just a minor pissup

"Mask mandates are the same as accessibility features "

Always the Omnicause lmao

Honestly this is my favorite type of response because like, nobody is stopping immunocompromised people from buying high quality N95s or respirators and protecting themselves. Frankly, it's patronizing to those people to act like everyone else should take care of them.

Okay this is true
