Right?? Being a civil engineer myself, if a contractor calls me to say he thinks something is messed up and he's willing to stop work to fix it then you'd better believe I'm triple checking everything.

One of the worse things I see in this report is the ignoring of the construction workers. I’m a good enough engineer to know I don’t know everything. A guy with a high school education that has actually done stuff with his hands and not just on a computer knows a lot more about how things actually work than I do. Some

And he should have covered his ass and run far, far away from that project. I’ve done it before - “Sorry I can’t help you. I need 3 weeks and you need it in 3 days. Find someone else”.

They didn’t even get 2 though. It was unsafe and ungodly expensive. All they got was speed.

Short a tension span, then?

Under the religious logic, viable doesn’t mean what you think it means. They operate basically on the dichotomy of dead fetus or not dead fetus. Because miracles. So they will wait up until the very last possible moment, until the mother’s life is in imminent danger, before they act. That’s the only way they can

Okay, so, here’s the thing: I get it. If your core, central belief on which you base your entire life holds that any kind of interference with a pregnancy is equivalent to murder, these policies make sense. What’s some suffering/discomfort compared to the literal life of another being and, potentially, your immortal

Maaaaaybeeeee? Maybe a liiiiiiiiiittle progress?? Shrugs. I don’t think so either.

I’m honestly surprised that Kristen didn’t get some good old fashioned racism to go with the misogyny. Is this progress? Yeah, I didn’t think so either.  

I’m going to take a guess that even if the women of Jalopnik never received another bit of idiotic feedback like the gems featured here, they’ve already got enough material for a series longer than the entire Fast & Furious franchise.

Here’s to hoping this spawns an entire series, this was fantastic.

wait, did i just wish they received more hate mail? 

I send a TON of inappropriate hate mail to George and Torchinsky (while drinking wine I might add). I feel that should be exposed as well.

Watching pick-up trucks slow down more for bumps than I do in my Mini makes me laugh every time.

Considering the boulder is essentially dog or child-size, this display of mindless driving should make us all very nervous

Go Team Boulder! Serves those asshats driving around in their giant obese douchemobiles just about right.

“I am a rock, I am in an iiiiiiisland.”

So that reporter is just going to stand next to that rock and ignore the googly eyes?

I want to come up with some defense of the drivers here but....that rock isn’t exactly in the middle of the driving lane and they even painted the curb yellow.  This is just shitty driving
