Ah yes, 1998. Back when life was simple. Presidential scandals involved blue dresses and google wasn’t really a verb yet. It was a time of Game Boys and MTV’s Celebrity Deathmatch.

Well, she would if you consider Audi’s mid-size A5 hatch lineup as the beds, chairs, and porridge that little Goldie tries out during her ill-conceived breaking and entering.
