Is it better than my method?

“So, if I am hearing you correctly, you want to spend $5,000 to buy clothes and then have strangers over on the weekend or have me handle them while I am at work (i work from home)?”

“Yes, what?”

“If you go forward with this, I am going to fuck the neighbor.”

“What does that have to do with...”

Were it about her wanting to go back to school, or maybe take up yoga or even if she was genuinely interested in changing careers, totally. I would be an extreme bag of dicks for shutting her down.

Here’s a reenactment of a discussion from three years ago dealing with MLM’s.(we didn’t even need the money):

The most horrifying part of this article was the dinner at Olive Garden.

Y’know, now that you mention it, I think the difference might be the taillights. Here is what I’d expect on a ‘76 (would put it in line but Kinja conspires against me...)

Seriously? How is this post-worthy. How do people own cars and not know what these are.

Dashcams are important.* If you can get one that can link to a cellphone for upload to the cloud, even better.

Seriously, I don’t get why he braked so hard. His STI could have made that turn at that speed no problem, he thinks the Ferrari couldn’t have?

Nope. What happened was he freaked out and then panicked and hit the brakes. When your front tires are at the limit of grip during the turn, braking is going to put you on a decreased radius path (the more brake: the more straight). It doesn’t matter if you have the most advanced ABS system available, this is physics

It looks like he target fixated at the end, basically going straight into the guardrail instead of trying to keep driving through the turn. I get you can’t tell speed from videos, but it doesn’t look like he was going fast enough to full wash out the front end.

Kids, this is how the rubber-band effect gets you. Notice the cars in front are keeping together and driving at the same pace. Assuming the lead car knows the road and knows enough to set a decent pace things won’t go sideways.

Nothing to see here, just a 2001 Jeep Cherokee front end grafted onto a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. But besides that, nope, nothing to see.

Now playing

I used to love watching the Pink Panther as a kid, along with the companion shows The Ant and the Aardvaark and The Inspector.

Coz he kept his foot in it! Throttle = nose goes up, lift/brake = nose goes down.
