I used to do commercials for a car company that made pickups. I won’t say which one. After shooting the obligatory drive it theough the mud, drive it around the farm roads in the golden hour, show it pulling something heavy, show some handsome actors tossing a saddle in the back or something and so on, we’d have all…

"Strengthened for breaking through ice" generally means resting the tower up against ice of a certain maximum thickness and using the boats buoyancy to to push the tower up through. This isn't the same as hitting solid ice at speed, which is likely what happened here

Even if the runway was half as long as the “calculation” it’s still pretty ridiculous. From either the scientific side or even just the movie entertainment side. It’s bad when you’re sitting in the theater and think to yourself “holy shit, they still haven’t taken off”.

The plane scene, how long was that runway again?!

yeah, it's not always up to date, but it's a good (free and easy) basic outline. But then, damn, that gansett thing is kinda old news, so not a great sign, thanks for pointing it out. I might have to run a couple dozen trial searches just to gather some data about reliability, because I push this on people pretty…

Suck it, Bentley. You only wish your cars were this amazing inside. You take your soulless, pillowed leather seats and go sit in the corner to sourly reflect on how much of a try-hard you are.

The other night, I was watching The Thee Burials of Melquiades Estrada for the first time and I had to laugh that it has both January Jones and Mel Rodriguez in it, 9 years ago.

Those poor, poor, genetic abominations.

Eww what is wrong with that person?!?! I have had legit arguments with my friends over Davos, because they are stupid and can't see how amazing he is.

Tokyo Drift is just so stupid and different and faux Japanese, but at the same time almost perfect. Watch the first one, then Tokyo Drift and then 5, 6 and 7.

When they meet up again, I think they at first would try to kill each other, but very quickly they'll see they need one another to achieve their aims. If they can do that, I think they'll be able to call a truce.

That sounds like a chocolate bagel, but better. I don't think you understand this holiday.

my response to that misguided person at your work:

So has the Hound been confirmed as dead? I know the new season is going ahead of the books but IIRC last time we saw the Hound in the books he was thought to be dead but might be with some monks and the Hound personality has died, while he lived as a novice with the monks. It's really more of a fan theroy but i hope…

I dislike Melisandre only because she is mean to Davos, who we all know is the true king of Westoros because he is the best.

It’s like $3500 in parts alone, and you have to drop the motor. Apparently if you catch it in time it can be ‘only’ $6k but some guys haven’t and they’ve had to do full engine replacements for $12k+.

Velosteraptor!

I bet it tastes like ass.

The title isn't something like "Vettel Wins His First Race With Ferrari" with the pic of him with his finger up, it's "A Mercedes Didn't Win The Malaysian Grand Prix". That's already less direct than Deadspin's
