I’ve also stated this before: the best thing the IOC can do is agree to allow cities to use existing infrastructure and sports facilities to support the Olympics. Many large Canadian and US cities already have perfectly good ice arenas (heck even the smallest Canadian cities have curling rinks). Subways and light…

It makes perfect sense that the winter Olympics have this problem. The Olympics as a whole have turned into a nightmare for any host city populace. They cost a lot of money, they clog your city with travelers, and the infrastructure improvements often don’t meet the everyday need of the residents, and after a few…

In short, their mowers are meant for the professional lawn care market. How do I know this? They tend to be a minor sponsor at NASCAR tracks and rent out space in the midway to display their mowers to all the self-made rednecks. And if there is one thing that a redneck can actually be “self-made” at, it’s running a…

You think just like Mahk

Some factory worker in Germany with at least 6 weeks of required vacation is griping about the US? HAHAHA! He should try living here.

Why is this on Deadspin anyway?

Still looks smoother than the NY Subway in its current state...

You’re forgetting what a 4 hour ambulance ride bill would look like, especially if they took the NJ Turnpike.

“It was a model made before catalytic convertors so it’ll run good on regular gas.”

The DeLorean failing to start at the climax of Back to the future.

Thor’s in a cage, how did this happen?” until “Earth it is” I had a smile on my face. It was the perfect response to Dark World, where a mostly flat emotionless…

Fuck Dan Snyder.

Those are temporary lights installed by the contractor, which means its whatever they have lying around the shop to use. My guess is in 10 years when those lights are too beaten up to reuse, the’ll replace them with some LED lights. Not because it’s more green, but because they don’t have to keep a stock of metal…

Look, Uncle Tom and Ben Carson said it was fine, so it’s fine!

Throw both of those men in prison.

You can just drop the last part of the headline to read,

The funny thing is my steering wheel is considerably more worn on the left side where I always hold my left hand while shifting with my right hand.

Yes, throwing people in jail for possession of drugs, unpaid fines, and other simple infractions is asinine and typically sees disproportionately more poor people in jail.

Makes a lot more sense than refusing to pay content creators because you tell them “exposure is your compensation”. And that would solve the problem in the first place.
