@VYCanisMajoris: Whatever, Lance has a distinct aerodynamic advantage.

@VYCanisMajoris: Are you somehow saying that this is not the epitome of human progress?

unspoken and unwritten understanding

I like how they carefully folded up 4 pink diapers in exactly the same shape. This demonstration was staged by unscrupulous train/vacuum marketers.

I don't believe them. I think there needs to be a long, expensive study on the long-term effects, at the taxpayer's expense of course. The Japanese taxpayers, that is.

I thought ejaculations were supposed to be satisfying.

Oh dear God! That kid must have been desperate!

Tinfoil hat? Check.

@CaptainJack: Yeah, I love the sound of gears and spring winders and ratchets and spring-loaded brakes.

Love Shack?

Now I can podcast on the go!

@Roddy: My friend's intestinal cancer is 100% organic, grain-fed, free-range, etc.

@DeeDawg: Someone with real talent and creativity literally copied the design from a stock designs website and literally pasted it into a CNC machine. Literally.

Wait, is this a real LV cell phone belt (and a dumb phone at that) or is it a typical Chinese knockoff? If it's real, it's somehow worse than that Ulysse Nardin non-touchscreen, no keyboard android phone, so basically run-of-the-mill of "ultra-luxe" phones.

@Shanfara: I know dozens of professional pilots and none of them have a setup like this. The kind of people that I find spend money on this kind of set up are "sim pilots", who brag about their "sim hours" and about how they could've landed the plane better when you sit next to them on a commercial flight.

@badasscat: Feel smug in the presence of nerds who spend all their time playing FSX and X-Plane 9. It's totally worth it.

@Zubieta: Where's the Jasper Johns smiley?

I don't like stationary simulators for anything other than making planes do things they shouldn't normally do. I guess I do that with the real, full-motion simulator as well.

Holy freaking Notams! There's random stuff in there, too, like their ATIS script and a bunch of cranes on or near the airfield. And most of them read "WIE (with immediate effect) UNTIL UFN(until further notice)", which is really annoying to read.

Been there. Done that. Would I do it again? No, but like basic training, survival school, and that shady Vietnamese restaurant in Guam, I'm glad I did it once.
