I don’t have to suggest it, it’s stated in the article. The symbol itself dates to a different horrible war (WWI), and is based on the older Prussian Iron Cross. And the plane appears to be decorated to look like a Focke-Wulf 190, though the resemblance is a stretch.

As you point out, it’s not a Nazi emblem. And as you point out, its presense does not in any way implicate the pilot, or the organization that maintained the plane, as Nazis.

Probably more than a moment of terror, at that.

Wait, what... Woot? Did I just wake up in 2005? And where’s my screaming slingshot monkey?

I bought it for my 9 year old son for Christmas. He finished it the next day, but it’s still proudly on display in his bedroom. Honestly, even if I didn’t have a kid, I’d still buy one.

Exactly this. My belief is that the husband (with or without the wife’s knowledge) figured that the funds were large enough to guarantee a huge win at the casino, after which he’d quietly reimburse the “loan” and pocket the profits.

True, PPE should be good for particulate matter and biohazards, and I suppose Axe falls into both categories. But they’ll still need to wash their turnout gear in diesel.

Oh, those poor firefighters. But at least when the tires went up, they would have freshened the air a bit.

Those are the people who get their windows punched.  Not that “I” would ever do that.  Just saying.

This JUST happened to me on my walk to the train station this evening. An indecisive $#!^ nosed right into the opposite side of the crosswalk, then decided to hit the brakes before I’d even reached the street. I waved him on, but he’d already tied up the flow of traffic in both directions.

If the inner doors are just a moderate step beyond the outer ones, you can pull off being the “double holder”. This solves both problems: no need for taking turns, and no repeated Thank Yous.

Add to the cons list the full bolster. If you want a German style knife, look at the Wusthof Classic Ikon. Same steel and blade, but with a half bolster which will allow for easier resharpening. And much better ergos, imo.

I went with the Ikons as well. The ergonomics were better for me than anything else I’d tried, including several Japanese knives (the wa style handles just feel wrong to me). I haven’t had them long enough to know how they’ll hold up, but I’m okay with honing them regularly, and with the half bolster, I know they’ll

The final season only just came out on BluRay, and there’s a huge (and growing) market of cable-cutters out there who are willing to wait a few months to pay to watch certain series.

There are Star Wars fans out there who are only just coming around to Clone Wars and Rebels. Those who were turned off by the terrible baby Fett “theatrical” release, or the Disney-ish Rebels opening, or maybe happened to see some of the crappier episodes (Droids, anyone?). That’s not “born yesterday”, just

It’s not about “tiptoeing around”, that’s a huge frigging spoiler right in the headline photo. Since they did seem to want the headline to be vague, it’s either sloppy editing, or else an intentional clickbait-y ploy to get us all riled up and arguing about it.

Wait! Hodor, Hodor... HODOR???

Whose line was it, anyway?

I believe that CBD has helped reduce both the frequency and intensity of my migraines. And it most definitely helps with anxiety. Placebo? I can’t rule it out, but if so, it’s been a pretty effective placebo.
