grounded to the ground

At least there wasn’t another train in the way, not like the incident a couple years ago on the Blue Line in Chicago.

Well, I for one don’t know how to dip off onto side streets to avoid construction without entering a world of hurt.

As a born and bred Chicagoan, you can do the same thing here if you are willing to risk that too. Given some neighborhoods you’d find yourself in around here, I’ll add the delay thankyouverymuch.

I came here to say exactly that. How that city wound up on this list is completely lost on me. As a Chicagoan who regularly drives through on the way up north... unbelievable.

I was driving up on 94 and they closed all lanes in both directions for over an hour for a car fire on the shoulder. In Chicago, they would have…

So Kerbal. Much Wow.

You mean Matchbox. When I was a kid, Matchbox and Hot Wheels were different companies so the perception was that Matchbox were better as they were made in England, and Hot Wheels were made in Taiwan. Even now Matchbox are more faithful to the actual car models, whereas Hot Wheels are garish and cartoonish…

Wait, so no “9-1”references? More grammarians troll Deadspin than actual trolls?

Well color me shocked.

It’s like Lenin said, man.

My car.

I see more stance-bro Miatas than track-bro Miatas. Usually there is no cage, and at least 2 body panels are primer. Blacked out taillights and crapcan muffler are also required. Any mods are pure aesthetics and performance increases are a side-effect easily negated by poor installation or other mods. Optional Monster…

I Dunc think I Kane come up with a better one than that.

I don’t normally laugh out loud at comments, but I LOL’d. Star for you.

According to the link, the amount fined was the MINIMUM for a uniform violation of a personal message. Not the maximum as stated in the article.

Given that, I don’t really see this being all that harsh.

With the context of the pink campaign and the DeAngelo Williams situation, perhaps the NFL should back down on using…

I’m for this. I know there are many who say that people should be paying attention, but they won’t. Plain and simple.

Driving is one of those tasks that will be replaced by robots because it has 2 of the 3 “D’s”

Dangerous
Dirty
Dull

Amen to this...I’ve been rear ended 3 times. Twice were the result of people in front panic stopping for a yellow (with red light cameras all over, people don’t even want to enter on a yellow and risk $100) I was able to stop, but the person behind me wasn’t.

Same here. I don’t know where I got the idea that they were amphibious, but I always thought they were. I’m actually a little bit sad now.

I cannot star this enough.

I know a guy, a rather large individual who had a lifted truck. He used the wheel to hoist himself up and broke the steering column.

Obviously an edge case, but it happened.

This young lady is what her dad is most proud of. He may have made it into the hall of fame, but she is truly his legacy. Well done!

I was going to post the same question. I vaguely remember that movie but I felt the same. Scared the shit out of me, but at the same time I recall it being pretty moving. I’ll have to rewatch.
