Today I learned... you have to see people actually standing next to a Fiat 500 before you realize that is actually a go kart with doors.

There needs to be a correction. The phrase “the whole day” needs to be replaced with “all day, every day” in order to be correct.

Hmmmm.... IIRC, Didn’t that happen in Camden County somewhere between 30 and 40 years ago?

.... Seriously? They want money spent of faster golf carts? They should just requisition some of the surplused M1161 Growlers. Not much bigger than a golf cart since they were designed to fit inside the half-assed V-22 Osprey (which someone should have noticed was far too narrow well before it even got to testing, let…

I’m pretty sure that the deciding actor was some of the money offered by the Nats wouldn’t be in his pocket for nearly 50 more YEARS. Seriously, the team owners are now a living example of Popeye’s Wimpy asking if he can pay Saturday for a hamburger bought today.

Very few of us are actually nuts enough to have wanted to urinate over the side of the 700 level... But even then, it doesn’t compare to Eagles fans, who threw anything they could get their hands on at Santa Claus during a halftime show... Most Philadelphia area sports fans hear the stories and just wonder how all the…

Recasting would be easy if they’d get it into their head to treat it much in the same way as changing the creative team on a book. Writing and artwork change all the time, and serial movies at least change directors and writers fairly regularly. They just need to start treating the cast in much the same fashion and…

Wait... so you’re saying Doctor Strange didn’t look normal to you? It looked totally Ditko to me, which is the way Doctor Strange should always be, and this normal.

Wow. I read that as “There are 700k of us living here, many by mistake”...

At first glance, this may seem like a predatory tactic to take advantage of the “cashless”, but in reality, it isn’t. You think the retailers have immediate access to the funds from a credit card purchase? They don’t. And the smaller the business, the longer they tend to have to wait for that revenue to become usable.…

Amazon is mail order, so they have had no vested interest in protecting trade secrets that retail outlets have kept hidden for the last half century. I know retail outlets I worked for in high school in the 80's engaged in the practice.

Shouldn’t this be filed under “Stupid Things Elon Musk Did Under the Influence of Illicit Drugs”?

Dammit, there’s no link to buy your version of a Tesla mug yet!

Meh. You can get a surplused BTR-70 for less than half that price and get two extra powered wheels. AND you can use it as a slow boat.

There are people who have figured it out. You simply need a windshield of sufficient size and proper curvature. It can then be cut down to fit the windshield frame of the selected oddball, unsupported vehicle. You’d be surprised how many old muscle and sports cars have windshields that started out as product for…

Problem here is once again one track mindedness. You’re whining about climate change. But what I don’t see is you whining about how farmers simply are not using their chemicals properly or safely. You sit there and blame algae bloom on global warming without any consideration for the fact that there may be more to the…

Sadly, this is common practice for any major chain’s repair network. Staples, for example, has the TekDry scam, which leaves all sorts of fibrous crap contaminating your electronics. And GeekSquad... there is so much wrong there I don’t even know where to start, beyond the idiot that told me I couldn’t do something…

Sounds about right... kind of like the idiots who bring in 8-10 year old laptops to me to replace broken hardware and magically expect it will be free because “I just bought it and it is still under warranty.” But the supposed warranty was never registered for a computer the company stopped making years ago...

I know how you feel. I’m on the Do Not Call List and I get at least a dozen calls per day. I’d be nicely wealthy if I could hold all these violators accountable for their bad behavior. I mean, seriously, it would be income of like $18k per DAY for the number of calls I get.

Here in NJ, they use old trees as core structural material for some of the sand dunes. The trees will rot away eventually, but in the meantime they accelerate the natural growth of the dunes.
