This stuff is just amazing.

On the New Mexico story I was once in a Verizon store as an exhausted customer asked over and over again if they could use their phone in Europe as some smiling jackass employee repeated endlessly “yes it works everywhere in America”.

My wife had a back brace that was like $500 from the orthopedist that was $50 online. Crutches are the same way.

Is a sling super expensive? He could buy a second one and wash the first as his leisure.

They’re grasping and tacky in the US, too, but a lot of people don’t care.

Turn your hot water heater up or you could get Legionnaire’s disease.

Also regardless of whether you’re right or wrong there aren’t a whole lot of people who respond positively to “fuck you idiot”.

There’s a lot of lane splitters at commute time in the Bay Area. As a car driver you learn pretty fast that they like to split between the left most lane and the lane next to it, and unless you’re a total dope you try and leave as much space as possible there so motorcyclists can get by.

By stealing fuel efficiency from every vehicle that rode over it.

How do you set the voice / game chat balance with this?

I made an appointment at the California DMV which is a nice feature in theory. I had just moved to CA so the first thing they do is have a DMV person look at your car outside to give it a quick once over, check the VIN, etc.

Magnetic suspension, carbon fiber wheels, different control arm connections, aero package, lightweight thanks to A/C delete, audio package delete, no resonators on the muffler.

It’s a regular car that has an available feature that starts braking if it detects it’s about to hit something. That feature wasn’t added to this car.

Only smog *but* it’s more than that. The car needs to pass CARB meaning it’s a lot more than just hooking up to the smog machine.

Can’t you just go ride there?

So we fixed it.

The gas tax generally isn’t the largest source of funding for roads and infrastructure.

I worked at Gamestop in college and a lot of these stories are bringing back terrible memories like:

First, don’t take glass bottles into the shower, duh. And also don’t take good beer in there, no matter how tempting it seems, because you’re going to get tap water and shampoo all up in it.

I like that he’s wearing a jersey.
