“...the lightweight wood shift knob has a piece of tungsten embedded in it, adding just enough weight for a satisfying throw.”

The person who originally posted this video complained on Twitter that the flight crew didn’t communicate anything about what was happening and called their handling of the in-flight situation “disgusting”. What exactly was the flight crew supposed to do? They were paying full attention to flying an aircraft with an…

And a tomato on my burger is still gross.

Yeah, it’s difficult to explain. Tomato as a component in salsa, pizza or any number of things, fine. Tomato on a sandwich or burger, nope. There’s something about a raw tomato that just gets in the way. To quote Peter Griffin, a tomato “insists upon itself”.

I’ve found the kiosks were sometimes moderately helpful when travelling in a country where I’m not particularly fluent in the language. Change the language setting on the kiosk and boom order done, no fumbling back and forth between me and the poor kid at the counter trying to help me muddle through the menu.

“Locke, who is the founding president of the Tesla Owners Clubs in Vancouver Island and Santa Clarita Valley, promptly apologized after Musk scolded him for critiquing the software.”

I wish them well but I’m not sure this is anything more than a reactionary response to a tragedy. Australia is worlds apart from me and I can’t say I’m familiar with this case so truthfully, far be it for me to comment, but I understand the anguish and the impulse to do something, anything to seem like you can take…

The difference basically comes down to the distinction between profit and profiteering. If you, as an individual, buy a Corvette and then resell it for a profit, you assumed a risk in your original purchase that maybe you’re wrong about the market and you end up break even or even losing. Even if we’re all in…

No. I already know what most food looks like. And for the things I don’t, I’d prefer to leave that tiny bit of adventure in my dining out experience.

Testing the waters? Yeah, came back positive for cholera. Absolute ND.

Make it blare Pantera’s Vulgar Display of Power out of the “exhaust pipes”. That’d be fun. 

I see custom potential in this. I know it’s sacrilege around these parts but repaint it something other than brown, maybe strip the vinyl, bigger and newer wheels, lower it slightly. It’s a little expensive as a starting point to get too deep into the interior and motor but I kind of unexpectedly like this land yacht.…

Not just Chicago. Traffic in my city, particularly during afternoon rush hour, is pure chaos and mayhem. Walking home from work on any given day I’m almost hit by a car at least once. Most times more. Your head has to be on a swivel at all times and if you think the sidewalks is safe, LOL. Two days ago it was actually…

“Designed in Auburn Hills” and “Assembled in Brampton.”

Selectable drive modes. Seems like they’re kind of taken for granted, no one really talks about the feature but damn if my whole car doesn’t change its driving characteristics, right down to the exhaust note, when I change from regular to sport mode. And then there’s track mode...seriously I despise any move to a…

Exactly. In 2008 it was reckless investment banks that had overleveraged themselves through pure greed to a magnitude that they would have collapsed the financial system, via the insolvency of their insurers, so they all got bailed out. Today’s crisis is a result of too many overextended households getting caught up…

I’m not exactly closed-minded to meat alternatives but the photos here make me think of canned tuna or maybe even a small piece of wood. They certainly don’t look like a filet. And honestly, not really appetizing.

“...the teacher makes “a big pot of something” like quinoa, oatmeal..”

The main problem is threefold, pay, pay and pay. Otherwise a good portion of the employee shortage comes down to terrible customers but they’ve been the bane of restaurants and servers since, well, since forever. It’s not just a pandemic thing. I mean in my own business, far removed from restaurants, I’ve often said…

Ostensibly a Nice Price but I’m more interested in the Maserati, even if it’s not a Bora.
