It depends on the car but a 2000 Civic Si would work just fine using this method. I see a few other comments stating the exact opposite of this, but I’ve been driving 90's Japanese 4-bangers for a decade and they are all capable of taking off from a standstill in this manner. I’ve taught plenty of people using this…

I remember Ray making sure everyone understood that Tom’s ‘63 was definitely not a dart or a swinger.

“the University of Alabama academic told Reuters”

I remember peaking into the private office of my art teacher in high school, and she had a topless self-portrait hanging on her wall in there.

So no one else on this thread has ever been hit by the urgent need to take a dump during an hour-plus conference call? I will say, when this has occasionally happens (it is not uncommon for me to have days with 4-6 hours of back to back calls) I both cover my camera with a post-it note and point it at the wall after…

Ugh, cancer has not made this guy a better person. However, I still cannot stop myself from having a trauma response hearing someone is in end stage. After watching my mom die from advanced cancer earlier this year and my bff about 10 years ago, it’s just so hard not let it get me in the feels.

A merry time, before the Great War. Many a scandalous eve did I spend in a telegraph office, sending ribald missives to any maidens who dared transcribe them. How rosily they blushed, I imagine, when they learned it was not my finger pressing down upon the key...

Mrs. Slocombe, is that you?

Woohoo! Ours are from Bland Farms in Georgia. The name of the farm though...

This failed by 1 vote.  Every Democrat who voted against this needs to be held to account, but Bernie Sanders having failed to cast a vote is the most conspicuous to me.  He may have a good reason, but shit, right now it looks like an inexcusable abandonment of pretty basic principles not to have bothered to vote!

Shows the dust too much. Tan khakis don’t show the dust you roll around in. To be honest, where I work now I could wear shorts and flip flops but the last place strictly forbid denim whether in jeans or in shirts for all office employees. That was a trucking company. 

If scarcity increases the value of these shirts, imagine what John Oliver’s shirt drawer is worth now.

I don’t have a problem with him call horseshit on an gun-lubed nutter but if that was his response verbatim then I do think we got 2 semi-demented white old men running for POTUS.  WTF Joe, can you speak English? 

What exactly has this got to do with the unions or unionisation or somehow a gotcha that Biden hates unions (a pro-Bernie routine I’ve seen a couple times in the last few days now)? Some dickhead decided to go full NRA and refreshingly (even if politically motivated) a politician actually told the bloody truth on the…

If American Evangelicals can look at a thrice-married serial adulterer with a history of lying, cheating, and abusing others and decide he’s God’s Instrument, they can spin a rationalization for aliens in a hot minute.

1) Stop begging the question about racism-at-large or “does this problematic thing I enjoy make me problematic” because that ain’t what we’re talking about and you know it.

I’m told the free market will fix this.

Uh... Is it just me, or does “accounted for” not really say anything about the state of those employees’ health? Or current life status?

We don’t need no regulation, we don’t need no gov control.
