Did you get back out or abandon the account?  I had an old burner that got COTD once.  I miss being able to use that.

Are you suggesting it’s OK to mock someone about a physical trait, over which they have no control, for a cheap laugh?

Careful, you are likely to get put into the greys, like I did, with comments like that.

The new recruits here lately have been confusing stunning engineering with the rich people who own them, and that their job should be to cover the vehicle first. Almost everyone who reads Jalopnik already thinks Bezos is a scumbag, piling on is just annoying. Spanfeller’s plan for G/O seems to be to turn it into a…

I gave up this site after years because the writing has gone so far downhill. Check it out again for the first time in weeks, and I’m treated to an article so meanspirited, so devoid of actual information on shipbuilding or yachts, and just dogging a guy with the laziest of personal attacks, that you got me…

As a middle-aged dude with a full head of hair that still looks like it did 20 years ago, I still think it’s a huge dick move to make fun of anyone for losing their hair.

...because it’s obviously cheaper and easier to just remove a part of a bridge than it is to do what you’re describing. If it was cheaper to do it your way, they would just do that. Clearly, it is not.

My guess is that the masts are going to be crewless and/or heavily automated, which means you’d need a shipyard’s facilities to mount it.  This is no run of the mill sailboat.

Being bald/balding is nothing to be ashamed of regardless of gender or status. Don’t be a dick, Andy.

Nice shaming of bald men.  DO BETTER. 

Say what you want about Bezos - the guy doesn’t deserve any sympathy. But that is a gorgeous looking vessel.

So I guess you are the one that decides none of the blue collar workers / trades people making boats, expensive cars, planes should have jobs anymore because you think no one should be able to afford these things? Nice of you. Would love to hear your economic plan. 

Watch out - this kind of comment gets you all sorts of shit on, in a Bezos thread.*

I mean you can make fun of the guy for having a “toy” like this but you know what? This project has employed hundreds of people in the hard hit marine sector and will continue to employee lots of people for the substantial on-going maintenance that will be required. Captains, engineers, all the other crew, the ports…

Grumpy jeep eyes!

You can take my fuzzy dice from my cold dead hands!!! LOLOL

I’m all for responsible gun ownership and regulated concealed carry. Now this:

There’s so many things, but nothing is worse than that chrome trim people use to edge their doors. Quickest way to make any car look like a tacky junk heap.

Ironically, much hated at the time, I wouldn’t mind a window-Garfield now. I’m in the mood for some pointless nostalgia.

The Tesla karaoke microphone!
