Do you want money, or do you want to get where you are going? If accidental monetary windfall is more important to you then yes, volunteering to be bumped is probably a better bet. My goal is to get where I am going. I rarely fly (as in, not in last several years) and when I do, $400 voucher absolutely would not be

It’s all moot, because there is no way that those hose clamps are capable of imparting loads that will yield that wrench in either direction.

Dammit, I collected 50,000 Fruity Pebbles box tops already for that freebie Tesla.

Oh my god, you guys, Tesla is actually a multilevel marketing pyramid scheme!

From the other article,

Can you imagine breaking the law and the judge saying “you spray painted a wall and caused 300 dollars in damage BUT a lot of walls get vandalized and no one is punished so you now owe 984,00 dollars because we want to send a message” that’s not justice, it’s public lynching to make people feel “good” I guess.

No of course not— that’s absurd for a single plaintiff case. It’s monopoly money to juries. I mean, why stop there. Why not $185 billion? Why not eleventy trillion squillion? Because $5M, $10M wouldn’t have “sent a message”? That’s why this stuff gets stuck in appeals forever. But I’m telling you, this stuff is

Like This Old House but with cars? One vehicle a season type thing?

Thing approved!

He may not be speaking of the POTUS, but the decisions that bailed out our financial systems and car makers. There is absolutely no doubt that American soldiers have fought for, and died for, the ideal of a democratic free-market society, but the truth came out when we bailed out the top dogs with the excuses about

“ pre-show”. “Fans, we’ve got a slight race delay as we remove a bus with no axles from the track, and repave the track.”

Speed buggy! Strong, independent Buggy that don’t need no driver.

A) Michael Knight was not a superhero.

Some “authorities” should be personally and professionally destroyed to the point where they literally have nothing, but unfortunately, it won’t happen. Probably some nice pensions to be guzzled down by them when they retire before real workers. Germany is lucky to be led by these types.

This man’s cellar is a multilevel underground car park with an access ramp. He also happens to have a personal bunker. The authorities seized the tank because the owner couldn’t produce a letter from a federal minister stating that he was allowed to own it. The second reason for seizing it was because authorities

I don’t get the latter argument, destroying it means destroying history and the risk of us forgetting it thus it occurring again. Only a handfull of panthers remain on the planet and scarcely any of them are in such good a shape as this, it’s not like he can go out and buy 88mm shells for the AA or the tank so let em

I think this government punishing businesses thing is just plain wrong. They are just shaking down these companies for billions and it doesn’t do anything for the people that bought these cars.

The only way this would be ok is if every penny they fine them goes to the people that bought those cars. Otherwise it is

Damn straight. The TPP is about 5% tarrif-related business and 95% “Why yessa missa oligarch sir, how can we maximize your company’s profits at the expense of workers and the environment?”

I am very, very much in favour of vaccines, even mandatory vaccines, but I think some of it comes down to a (not entirely unwarranted) distrust of the medical community and their motives. Who here can say they haven’t experienced a doctor ignoring what you’re telling them about symptoms and distrusting your
