Here’s how it works:
Here’s how it works:
The facepalm you make when you lose a battalion of tanks, a giant death mech, and a handful of mechanized infantry to a trimeme.
Those pictures look like screenshots from one of my Civilization V games.
I have an old Navy practice bomb in my house. I’ve been considering attaching a mailbox to the fins and burying it nose down in the front yard.
Totally harmless. It is not as though the guy can launch the missile from his passenger seat. That would tear the ailerons. If the guy was going to detonate it, using a van with ammonia and potassium nitrate would be easier and cheaper not to mention less suspicious.
That is a rental Volvo. He just picked it up at the airport after “testing” the TSA security checkpoint. Clearly they failed.
They were too busy dodging old people in Crown Vics and Town Cars who can’t figure out what a lane is or what side of the road to be on.
Well he’s white, so he can’t be a terrorist. Everyone knows that.
Tyler Rogoway is an internet mutant. I look forward to the day I can come up with something remotely interesting. I’d call it Foxtrot Bravo.
It’s the latest thing - take a semi-obsolete APC, add plastic ‘luxury’ trim, bluetooth, power windows and a backup camera and sell it for twice as much. Talk about a safe-feeling driving position! Plus you have the right of way wherever you go. Your neighbor’s H2, Exkursion or International CXT can take a fking…
No clue! But low hanging FA/Jalopnik fruit. I have a weirder one tomorrow
Always yield to armored vehicles. Just a basic rule of thumb.
It’s China. It’s probably a case of some insanely rich assclown cruising around in his PLL05 that paid cash for the damage to the Caymen- owned by a poorer countrymen.
As an owner of a 2005 Echo, I’ll respectfully disagree with you about it being terribad. My little car feels solid, and it’s taken every bit of abuse thrown at it with style. Cruising down logging roads going rock climbing, loaded up with 5 whitewater kayaks on the highway, hauling lumber on the roof rack and inside,…
The Yaris isn’t so bad. Sure, it’s almost insultingly cheap (for a Toyota), but there’s a lot of cleverness in the designs. I’d own a Yaris before a Spark, Sonic, or a first-gen Versa and Fit, but that would mean I’ve unfathomably passed over the Mazda2 and Ford Fiesta.
Dear British military: Tanks for teaching the driver an important lesson. It certainly armed them for the future, and perhaps gave them some emotional armor to better deal with problems in the future. They were probably blown away with surprise, but will tread more lightly moving forward. Their future learning will be…
If you can’t see a freakin’ 60-ton tank coming down the road, I doubt you’re going to notice a civilian cop car.
When, as that Yaris driver said was the cause, you “don’t see” a column of tanks approaching and you drive right in front of one, you might have to re-evaluate your driving.
