Your kid totalled a car by hitting it with a bicycle?! Am I reading that wrong? I simply have to know more.

Having grown up in one of those schools in the 80s and 90s, I shudder to think of what that would mean for our children.

There’s probably one or two of those pages that’s basically a blank placeholder.

Seriously. Vote like you’d like the opportunity to vote again, at all, ever.

Thanks for the info!

Cool, thanks!

I mean, of course it went for crazy money. It’s got to be the only Camry left with an un-dented bumper. That’s basically unobtanium.

Point of order:  Is there a distinction between a “flying boat” and a “seaplane?” Or are they interchangeable?

People do really dumb shit when they’re miserably hot, sleep-deprived (because it’s hot as hell), and surviving on “whatever hasn’t spoiled yet.” Put entirely too many guns in easy reach of those angry people and this is the natural result.

The lowest common denominator strikes again.

Cheating on his wives. Plural. Let’s maintain our journalistic integrity and tell the actual truth. He cheated on all three of his wives.  Hell, he probably cheated on his mistrisses too.

Agent Orange might actually be possessed by the angry gost of Doge. It would explain so much.

I’ve got the XKCD book haha! But that chapter is literally what got me started on this tangent (and thinking of weird fuels one might cause disasters with).

I know, it’s a question of “for what, exactly? And at what cost?” The ISS needs regular velocity boosts to maintain its orbit as it stands. When it’s empty and not used, that’ll still need to happen, only it’ll be farther away, moving faster, and not in use.

What fuel are you working with? I’ve fallen down the proverbial Kerbal rabbit hole and want to find out how many model rocket engines you’d need to gather up to make an honest attempt at moving the ISS that way (ignoring the pesky O2 problem, and the ignition sequencing, and like a million other glaring problems, but…
