She was already shooting video when the thing went past. (Or, more accurately, when the thing was floating there and the plane went past.)

This needs more stars.

That’s what I was thinking.

If those pro-Palestinians do not protest against Hamas, then, they are just pro-Hamas

Mark Tewksbury (Olympic gold medal swimmer) is pretty famous in Canada.

If a power line falls on or near your car...do not touch metal items inside, such as your seat belt buckle

I was just over at the new Jezebel site (it was picked up by Paste magazine after a brief shutdown), and guess what I saw? AV Club has now joined Splinter and Jezebel in the Paste stable.

OMG, I’m old enough to remember seeing that commercial with the dummy when I was a kid. I thought it was awesome, and I asked my dad whether we could get a front-wheel seat like that, because it looked to me like the dummy was having way more fun than the guy behind him.

If we didn’t already have the word yeet, I feel like we would have invented it to describe what that FJ did to our man there.

A car engine would never be under a boot, because boot = trunk (i.e., the storage area itself, not the thing that covers it). The cover for the trunk space is simply called the boot lid (same as trunk lid in NA). Good rule to follow is that if it covers an engine, it’s a bonnet - wherever the engine is located.

For me it was having access to the free, top-shelf booze in the first-class lounges when I used to fly all the damn time. It can be hard to resist all those delicious single malts, really good wines and beers, especially when someone else is driving the plane and the taxi home when I land.

Yep, dash cams are great for that. However, one time I picked my car up from the dealer and found the dash cam was unplugged. When I complained, they said it was for “customer privacy” reasons and they had to do it. I could maybe see an argument for that, so I told them it was fine to disconnect it while it was

1) Yeah, I was wondering what exactly they meant by “fresh” crab meat. Given that there’s no mention of cooking the crab, I presume that it means “from a freshly-opened can.”

I was expecting more packaged soup mix.

Busted. It was bugging me, so I fixed it. Good eye, mate!

A group of local South African tourists were in the area when they got too close to the elephant bull in an effort to take better pictures. That’s when the big fella got aggressive and approached the safari truck.
