Another contender for the winner, Redwing Simulations released a free Citroën DS for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Jesus. I have so many mini-discs full of music. I still have a working

And I have absolutely no reason for it! I’m a hoarder. Maybe that’s it.

I will sell you the disc player and several other special things. Until midnight.

Wait. This was supposed to go in the I’m Drunk thread.

Or the other one. Shit. The new bag is amazing.

Sacré bleu! It’s the French Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!

But seriously, the Citroen DS was the coolest looking car. Minus the extra thing under the body to accommodate the wings, though.

Now that the options are back, you’re looking for “Purploid Rain.” All the lovely purple, but none of the comic sans.

77

Purploid Rain and Got the Blues are both pretty soothing.

78

Always use Got the Blues. But that purple without the Comic Sans is enticing.

I use Solarized Dark myself, but the purple is definitely also an attractive option.

If @stusser could add a teeny bit of custom css to it, it’d be perfect:
