Came here looking for the guns bit as I had never heard of any of the “flying Jeep” prototypes being armed, and.... learned it was just a troll via clickbait title. The “flying Jeep with Guns” was the “Sally Rand”, the YH-32A, which was a flying testbed which mounted everything from aerial rockets to machine guns,…

Why is this even news? Tesla has been pulling this particular cruddy shenanigan for at least four years now.

Lies! Those are not the world’s biggest trucks they are building in that facility!

Nah, wrong level of corruption. The politicians just approve a broad budget. It is high ranking Pentagon desk jockies who actually decide the nuances of how the money will be spent on equipment. Those are the ones who get the gifts, pay offs, and cushy post-military-retirement jobs.

Just when you thought there were no more bright ideas for the overpopulation of the planet...

You do realize that once the child pestering phase ends, a new phase begins - being pestered by an even wider group of people about grandchildren.

It also displays a lack of knowledge in other ways. For example 8,000 people have caught the virus. That makes it less than 1/3 the population of my town. Hell, makes it less than 1/10 of 1% of the population of NYC. Most people have no clue what the population of their town is.

Amuse yourself by imagining they are following through with the party legacy Bill Clinton started. Just imagine they are voting for the one they would prefer to have sex with in the oval office.

My grandmother had one of those Mercury Monarchs. She bought it new. The silver paint was self-stripping and gone within a year.

I’ma give you a star for the Spongebob quote. ;3

To modernize that commercial, all they would need is people to key the car after the ‘loud exhaust’ was engaged.

So you have no problem with the freedom of speech supporters filing complaints far and wide with site administrators and law enforcement for you threatening them with death then, seeing as that is what your last paragraph does?

The problem with Facebook is not that it is “a corporate bureaucracy that refuses to acknowledge that your butthole is not a business location.”

Ehhhhh... Be patient for a year or three. Ghibli’s films have been bounced all over the US industry. People even forget they were licensed to Disney for a time.

More like society changed and people started to feel whining and complaining would accomplish something. decades ago, everyone just snickered at the botch and continued on, while anime that looked better than the usual fare was a source for discussion.

That photo and “you’re still coming in to work, right?” are why man invented snowmobiles. Which I’ve used to get to work in that kind of weather in the past.
