My dad was flipped upside on highway 401 in Ontario near Pickering in the late 80s. He was driving a Plymouth Horizon and a flatbed semi coming onto the highway shifted straight into the middle lane, clipping his front corner and flipping him. He slid for at least 100 metres on his roof, the car coming to a rest…

If the school board had any guts, they would change the name to the Gamecocks, and claim that you can’t get much more conservative than South Carolina.

I’m old enough to remember when you bought a game and got the entire game experience from the beginning. No DLC. No loot crates. I don’t recall having to unlock the Gotha flying wing in Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe in order to fly it in single mission mode, and if I did it didn’t take 40 hours of game play.

My ex and I were married in Oshawa, so of course we had our pictures taken at Parkwood.

The second video, the one showing what the HQ is really about, is the funniest damned thing I’ve seen all week. Maybe all year. I giggled like a middle school girl on nitrous.

At the upper speeds, things at the side of the road (like roads that intersected with the highway) flashed in my peripheral vision as though something was coming at the car. The driver must have been concentrating as hard on not flinching from the false warnings in his brain as anything else.

You’ve got to think that it’s a better pregame, team-building motivator than whatever that “speaking in tongues” thing Drew Brees does.

I starred it for being pro-“cool international history no one in the west ever takes in school, which is a crying shame”.

Joker cosplay for a local science fiction or game convention = nerd.

Papa Murphy’s is real, and pretty decent. But it’s a take-and-bake. The local one failed, though it was in a crappy location (ironically enough, it was within spitting distance of the Papa John’s that also went under, twice).

Cici’s chocolate dessert pizza was pretty good, though. It was almost (almost) enough to justify its existence, so of course they discontinued it in the one store near us that sold it.

How do you and Torsloke have so few stars when you both speak the objective truth?

I haven’t seen this one listed. When there is a blackout and the traffic lights are out, you treat the intersection as a four-way stop. You do not drive through it without stopping because you think you are traveling along the predominant route.

I’m a Saints fan, but while I *think* I see how they called it no catch, at best I think that the refs should have declared the review inconclusive and let the touchdown stand. The Bears and Miller were robbed.

The guy is yelling “Get it in!”

That, and running a fake on every punt, and defending 3rd-and-short with a goal line defense no matter where you were on the field.

I had to go to Montreal to get my U.S. K-1 Visa back in 2003. My wife was concerned about being understood there. I said, “You’ll do fine. You’re American with a Southern accent. I’m an anglophone from Ontario. It’s me they’ll despise.”

I wouldn’t be surprised. Most TV announcers are shills for the NFL. They never criticize the product, just individuals or team effort. Romo either didn’t get the memo, or is actively ignoring it.

I watched the replay and Hamilton didn’t force Vettel off the track. Regardless of whether or not first lap rules are different, there’s still the case of Sainz unable to stick to the track limits after passing Perez, and that was 30-odd laps into the race.

According to this site, there are C, D, and U (unclassified) roads, though they seem to be a throwback rather than an official designation.
