They need to ask white potential jurors if they’ve ever called a police officer “sir” or “ma’am” or ever displayed an American flag anywhere at any time.

The decedent assumed the supine position, motionless, with both hands visible and empty. It was possible the decedent possessed super powers. I was in fear for my life, so I discharged my duty weapon.

I used to care about what color my cars were. I guess I still do, here in Texas, if they’re black. Once I had kids, though ... meh. A car is an appliance, to get you and your stuff from point a to point b. Adulting makes you realize a car is not, in fact, an extension of your true self. Or maybe it is, and my true…

If you take anonymous comments online so very seriously, you’re doing “common sense” wrong.

I have a handmade leather tray for my EDC and no way would I put a peasant G2 in it. 

Listen, if you’re not EDCing a $100 pen, you’re doing something wrong.

If you can buy dozens of pens for $29, you’re doing “pens” wrong.  

Motor upgrades are ‘spensive! Here, try this magic motor spray, maybe that 540 can motor will last another weekend before you have to buy a new one.

I had a Tamiya Frog that held up respectably against the RC-10s at our club track. Never beat ‘em, but I could hold my budget-racer head up at the end of the B main.

But I’m continually dismayed by just the sheer amount of Depraved Indifference.

in 2016, Dallas police used a bomb-equipped walking bot to kill a man suspected of killing five cops on the force.

Time to work up a plausible reason for it to catch fire and sink where it is so the crew can abandon ship and go home. Let the insurance companies take their sweet time arguing about who owes who how much, but let the crew GTFO.

Don’t ships in canals require local pilots in command? Why isn’t this the SCA’s pilot’s fault?

My kid’s band required three 26-foot box trucks to haul their gear. Well, 2-and-a-half. The truck they crammed all the marimbas and xylophones and stuff like that into was only about half full because you can’t stack stuff on top of a $10,000 marimba, apparently.  

Without some indication that a particular installation and/or analysis was compromised

They could be living next to you every minute. how bout’ dat?

you don’t have to posses a single qualification outside a driver’s license to rent a 26' box truck.

Do scam startups count? If so, I nominate 20th Century Motors and the Dale.

Where I live it’s not uncommon for it to rain somewhat frequently (and maybe even hail occasionally) in the spring. The local news still acts like it’s a big deal, for some reason. I can’t quite figure out why they make a big deal out of relatively common events.
