The summer before my son turns 18, I want to take him on a road trip from Baja, CA to Patagonia (ideally in an offroad modded Subaru) as a right of passage into manhood.

LOL

CalFire needs to get in touch with the same people who put out tornado shelter in place orders in the Midwest... An F4 tornado was 15 minutes away from hitting the town of Washington, IL in 2013 and all the residents of the town were texted warning them to get to shelter immediately. Not sure if that was an opt in…

I can definitely attest to the power of this exercise. I’m in a community of men who have all done this and we’ve found a ton of value in it. I still can’t read my future one back without tearing up!

Ahhh.... my bad. Getting my vans mixed up. Thanks!

That’s genius... plus can’t you get the EcoBoost V6 in one of those??

Purdue University just opened the 1869 Tap Room, featuring a range of Indiana craft beer! Boiler up!

Hey Brian! I work for a National Science Foundation funded natural hazards research center, and our awesome scientist network has some really great data products for hazard events:

BOILER UP! (I work at Purdue University) :D

I still remember blasting the everloving bejeezus out of anthills with a CPS2000 as a kid. That was fun!

Whew! Yeah, that would definitely take up a lot of time!

It’s been a minute... what happened to $kay? Hope everything’s alright!!

You would have to pay ME $30k to drive that.

HA! No hidden irony from me this time, just a poorly explained definition. Here’s a better one:

Sorry Tesla PR Guy, but this IS how you build your cars... because you know... these two were built that way.

No worries! Meta is basically using something outside of the data presented to explain it. In this case, using another joke meme from Jalop to make a joke about this article.

Loving your hot takes here, as a member of the natural hazards research community. I salute you!

Ooo... that’s a meta COTD right there!

You definitely dodged one! I ran into an old co-worker of mine at the grocery store last night and he said they’re still working engineers as crazy as ever. Very glad I’m not there anymore! :)

Came for this, was not disappointed.
