Hey man, sometimes when you skydive, you flip a coin.  This time it came heads up.

I’m pretty sure you can get your $250k back without too many problems.  What you won’t be getting back is all the interest you missed out on.  At 5% over 6 years that’s over $80k you left on the table, or, for the 1000 idiots who put down their money, that’s over $80 million in free interest income that Tesla made off…

I mean, does anyone remember Mars One from a few years back?

pretty epic, hard to debate that

Pardon my ignorance, but any reason why?  am i missing something here

Maybe I’m way off base here, but comparing your pic to the one to the top, it appears that “what could’ve been” and what actually is are pretty similar

I mean, a cute ad, but it’s no Macintosh super bowl ad....

Overall a solid list. I would switch Blade Runner and Alien, just my personal bent.. they’re both essentially perfect movies.

Maybe all insurance is trash, but there’s pretty extreme varying degrees of trash.  Elonsurance sounds like it’s scraping the bottom of the barrel here..

Botswana was a pretty awesome episode. I’m surprised nobody mentioned Killing A Toyota Hilux PT 1 or 2, or the TGUK American road trip through the south. Those were both... pretty epically memorable.

I dunno is ‘most of the population’ is necessary a fair assessment. I imagine a lot more people could make it work than we think, even without COVID as a motivating factor.

Can’t tell if serious, a troll, or a total idiot. But “the latest data” showing that most of the carbon is coming from decomposing plant and tree material- that’s just fucking stupid. Plant and tree material has ALWAYS been decomposing. Its the extra carbon we’ve been releasing into the atmosphere over the past 100+…

But... is she? She appears perfectly normal, even mildly pretty. I don’t want to be overtly judgmental in either direction, but I certainly wouldn’t attach the term ‘hot’ to her under any circumstances.

I’ve heard of Pokimane and Hasan Abi before; this is my first time watching either either of them. I want my six minutes back. These people are just so boorish and crass... genuinely inarticulate and uninteresting.  I just marvel at how they might’ve become e-famous.

Truth be told, you’re pretty much right. We all gave him more of a pass back then. He was an asshole- a complete, total fucking asshole, but a really funny one (kinda just like Clarkson). In the intervening years he’s just been afforded a lot more time to say a mountain of stupid shit.

You know what else floats on water? A duck.

I worked as an editor on the long-lost TG USA pilot with Adam Carolla, Tanner Foust, and Eric Stromer. For a one-off pilot, it was pretty awesome. NBC shot themselves in the foot by shelving it; it had the best chance of recapturing that incredible chemistry that Clarkson/Hammond/May had that really made the show so…

You must have a template for these kind of articles by now, simply to save time:

Meh, not sketchy at all, actually. Yes wood has a much lower compressive strength vs reinforced concrete but sweet jebus look at all that wood they’re using. Also looks like they’ve thrown in some extra steel beams too? Should be just fine in the short-to-medium term

She’s actually right, math is hard when you’re an idiot. If you’re spending $28 for some fucking cookies, then you are (indirectly) bad at math, and thus: an idiot.
