Sorry, but you failed. Inertia can’t be lost, it is an innate quantity measured by your mass. You are thinking of momentum, the product of mass and velocity.

I need advice. My 4-wheel drums on my ‘66 Chevelle Malibu tend to do fun side-to-side gymnastics and fade when braking hard. I don’t have an e-brake to rip, but should I stomp the parking brake pedal? Would that help? Maybe I should invest in a digital tire guage too, just to be sure.
I think it has already happened! I know I will be posting “Shoulda ripped your e-brake, bro!” a lot!
Me too. I had no idea he was a pretty smart guy.

Flux capacitor goes here. Expect the car to reappear any day now at the moment it time-traveled to.
Um, yeah, right.

Just so you know: the hand brake is for parking. You can’t do anything useful with it to stop. You can easily put enough force to lock brakes with the pedal, but the antilock will stop you if you are in a modern vehicle. All the hand brake could add would be to defeat the antilock and lock the brakes, causing you to…
I am unclear on whether he was the “good guy with a gun” using it to dissuade a raging loon yelling at him, or a “bad guy with a gun”. These ammosexual rules are so difficult to understand.
Is the meaning he pulled the parking brake lever? Why not just use the pedal? It would be faster, doesn’t ratchet on and lock, and actually brakes all four wheels.
I heard yo’ mama sold pogs!
Except is is actually true in SC!
I hear the critical ΔP for 18-wheelers is more like 5psi. Less sensitive than a BMW.
We had a local one with the slogan: “Satisfaction guaranteed or double your honey back!” (For those who don’t know... honey = fecal waster.)
“Turn your wheel and cough.”

Re: Kids’ names - Why do people give their sweet little girls obvious “stripper names”. You know, the ones they use to hide their real names. I teach college and just about crack up when I hear some of the gawdawful names people give their children. Don’t they worry that the name will become destiny?
