I’m no blue lives matter type who thinks cops can do no wrong, but this seems like a reasonable response in this situation. Seems like it could have ended much worse for all involved had they taken a different approach. 

“I’m never going to Monday morning quarterback my cops.” Ouch, that one doesn’t land well. Not saying that hitting the suspect with the cruiser was a bad move, but this police Commissioner needs some media training.

Nope. Musk is literally the one person on the planet that makes me like Mark Zuckerberg. And I hate Mark Zukerberg.

Agreed — this is something that’s non-consensual for people not attending. What gives them the right to endanger everyone like this? We can have air shows but they need to not be in densely populated areas.

I think its time we might need to have some more prohibitive laws surrounding air shows. How many accidents per year do we need to have?

“Between the increasing cost, environmental issues (i.e. cow farts and the chemicals used to tan the hides) and other issues like veganism, animal welfare, etc., leather is rapidly becoming to the 21st century what fur was to the late 20th century.”

Blaming one doesn’t exclude the blaming other?

But not all mods are worth spending your money on. A classic example is adding a massive wing to the back of a front-wheel drive economy car. If you like the look and understand what you’re getting yourself into, no one is going to stop you, but you’re unlikely to see an improvement in grip, and if you actually do go…

If I ever suffer a terrible life tragedy that plunges me into alcoholism and then one day I have an awakening and decide to drop the bottle and reset my life trajectory, my new reason for living will to be a vigilante for dangerous lighting.

Opening the trunk of my car and awarding two more Darwin t-shirts to the latest winners.

If you are in a rental car and don’t know the area, especially alone...please don’t go “exploring”. This, stupid people and animal encounters, and slip and falls are about 95% of all SAR efforts.

Yeah, 40 is way past the number where you can claim being a dumb kid. Which, I’d put at two, max.

The charge should have never went through in the first place, especially since it should have been suspicious that ANY Uber ride would be 30K$...In fact spending 30K in one sitting should have been a red flag before it even reached the account unless the couple normally spends that amount.

this is the bullshit we put up with. the bank and uber are both pointing fingers at each other instead of just fixing the fucking problem. who cares whos fault it was, change the currency. my moms two health insurance companies are both fighting over who is the primary and responsible for the larger share of her 270k…

Turns out marking up cars way above MSRP, with high payments might not have been a good long-term strategy.

We had to run out of people dumb enough to take on a 1k car payment at some point.

I’ve met people who did Everest, and they are masters in playing down that they basically were guided up the mountain and back by people who actually know what they are doing for the sake of a thing to talk about at parties and to have a photo and framed flag hanging in their office when they want to show they are...…

Simple physics. Inside the sub you have 1 bar (14 psi) of pressure. Outside, at Titanic depth, you have about 380 bar of pressure, or some 5300 psi, give or take.

I read that the internal temperature briefly reached 6000° F., so that fine paste would have quickly turned to fine ash.
