The Expanse is so good.

Ah, cool. Minions are actually my favorite all around tires too, blows people’s minds when they see a trail or XC bike with a DH pattern tire tread but they roll great! I run DHF’s front and back with 3C on the rear and super tacky on the front.

Not dumb, that bike is sick as fuck. Frame up build or is Santa Cruz offering Magura forks and 1x11 build kits these days? That’s an awesome XC whip.

Just a heads up for Dafuskie or anyone else either link your source or I’m dismissing your comment. I already refuted and provided points countering everything in that reply you sent me. I’m not interested in being called names or repeating my valid points ad nauseum.

First of all lets get facts straight. Obama pursued military action to remove Assad and destroy his chemical weapons. Republicans in congress blocked it. He was forced to pursue a diplomatic solution as a result, and in good faith with the congressional limits on presidential power (he could have gone crazy with

That’s kind of my point though. So much hand waving deus ex machina for how everything could work. I could suspend disbelief that future humans figured out how to build a wormhole but a machine in the middle of a singularity? That Cooper can just wander around in and pluck strings through time? And then he’s in love

Interstellar is your favorite? That movie was such a bait and switch in my opinion, advertised as a hard science thriller but delivered some bizarre existential “love connects the universe” crap for an ending. And it wasted Matt Damon in my opinion. (Gorgeous film but it fell flat for me)

Whoa! I’ve seen all the teasers leading up to this and I was pretty meh on it but if the film lives up to that trailer it’s gonna be epic! Whoever scored and edited that deserves a really big cookie.

Obama was president, negotiated agreement with Syria, no further chemical weapons were used during his term.

I was curious about what people’s opinions on Overboard are around here. I thought it was hilarious when I was younger (I think I was 11 when I first saw it) but even at that age I knew Kurt Russell straight up committed a bunch of felonies in the service of taming Goldie’s shrew character and all the ethical problems

I was crew on the C-17 until about 6 years ago and we did presidential support airlifts all the time, usually two or three sorties about one to two weeks in advance for international trips. The secret service operates a lot of armored vehicles, we brought six of “the beasts” into Ankara Turkey for Bush once so they

No a V-22 can’t be airlifted, even with the wings folded it’s still too big for a C-5. The folding wings are for naval storage. To my knowledge they deploy on their own power and thus are used sparingly. All the Phoenix Banner missions I participated in were motorcade only to be honest. Only did a VH-60 once and that

C-5's are not commonly used for Phoenix Banner ops in my experience. C-17s are much more common and cost a quarter of that in terms of per hour operation. I would also be surprised if they don’t keep assets in place at Mar-A-Lago at this point or at least plan to during the fall/winter/spring going forward. If they

C-17 cost per hour is actually crazy reasonable, $24k. V-22's are about three times that but I don’t think are commonly used for presidential movement. Usually if helicopter transport is needed it’s either an SH-3 or VH-60 because they can be airlifted as opposed to having to fly themselves.

I’m of the opinion that George Lucas’ mind was a bag full of cats when it came to his original series sense of ownership. For whatever reason he would get zoned in on very specific moments (Han shot first) that weren’t really a big deal until he fucked around with them. I suspect the Luke Skywalker/Mark Hamill photo

If it makes you feel better those scooters suck ass. I’ve worked medical supply delivery and I’ve never met a single person who enjoyed one of those things. Also his foot probably hurts like a bitch.

From what I understand this whole “rolling coal” thing started with legitimate modifications that were intended to boost torque in short term situations like going up a severe grade with a trailer. It produced a lot of smoke as a byproduct so assholes started installing them on their vehicles to harass other people.

Heh, and I felt ballsy every time I smuggled a fifth of tequila into Al Udeid.

Same guy both times. His last name sets off their security checks apparently. Look, I have no reason to lie. I like Canada. I like Canadians. I fucking hate the border crossing though. You keep acting like I’m comparing it to the US and I haven’t once done that. I said clearing customs in the US sucks balls, it’s

I’m not saying it’s more racist than the US, I’m just saying their border entry people are fucking nazi’s. That’s my opinion based on my experiences. I’ve been to Canada three times in my life for vacation and all three times either I or someone I was traveling with got hung up for no apparent reason. Two of those
