Ah, ok. Yes I am. Honestly, they're just a couple flanges with tubes connecting them. If I still had a welder I would have made my own. Hell, in hindsight I could have bought a welder for the cost of the manifolds and then had a useful tool. The book he gives you has a lot of really obvious "tips" and a parts…

Vaccines do not always have a 100% efficacy rate. Polio and measles vaccines are, IIRC, about 99% effective, which means you can eradicate the disease from a good deal of the population via vaccines and the other 1% will receive herd immunity as the disease will lack the hosts that can effectively spread it.

So yes,…

The UK has already seen the consequences of anti-vaccination.

No, it's not just anti-vaxxer kids who get sick. Young infants aren't old enough to get vaccines, and they can catch these diseases and die from them. People who have illnesses or who are on medication that makes them immunocompromised will be likely to catch these illnesses and could suffer complications or die from…

What frightens me is just how dangerous that small, vocal minority is. They aren't just putting their children at risk - they are endangering the health and possibly the lives of people who absolutely rely on herd immunization because they legitimately cannot be vaccinated.

I think this needs to go beyond education. The anti-vaxxer crowd are a health menace and are willfully ignorant —they will not let themselves be educated.

oooooookay.

I work as a counselor for special needs people and whenever I'm out in the community with them people are typically gracious—sometimes even too polite—but teens, the fucking teens, especially the boys. I've seen them flip off my clients, spit in their direction, make faces, start speaking "retard" though some of my…

My mom is the owner/director/a teacher at a small private school for learning disabled and autistic kids. Some of those kids are fucking awesome (especially this 9 year old girl that always follows me around when I stop by to visit; she is totes adorable). These kids are so impressionable and will do anything,…

This is so vile. I hope everyone involved in this "prank" burns in hell for all eternity. Until then, I will settle for public beatings. I've got a sock full of quarters at the ready.

I've never had anyone stall my car when teaching them to drive a stick. My lesson begins with ten minutes of theory, explaining the relationship of the pedals to engine and the wheels. Then I have them practice range of motion with the clutch, pushing it in and letting it out again as slowly as possible. Next, with…

Excellent trolling. How long you been waiting to drop that line you fucking goober?

I get what you're saying, but nah. If I found a gun just laying about, I would call the police. Because, OMG THERE IS A GUN LAYING ABOUT. I would assume it was used in a crime or something and would definitely not want to touch it.

There are psychos in this world who think we should include gun handling/shooting as part of the public school curriculum. I can't imagine how having a bunch of elementary aged children doing target practice as part of PE could go wrong... People are insane. And honestly, I hate that I have to share my space with…

But they couldn't get away.

They could have ran, ran so far away.

You're right, you are free to choose to recline. You're also free to your opinion about it. But common courtesy says that if you're recline into someone else's space that they are currently occupying (as is the case with a very tall man like Thabeet), maybe you should consider being polite instead of being a child.

The guy's in a bulkhead, which means he already has more legroom than 95% of the people in coach. On top of that he's laying his seat all the way back into the lap of a person in the top 1% of leg length of all humans on the planet, and putting his feet on the walls for maximum dickishness. Just because something is…

Giraffe: Touch it.
