How far behind the truck was he?

Listen, the motorcyclist deserves some blame here. The reason I do not ride a bike is that I live in a major metro area (pop ~6 million) with some of the consensus worst drivers on earth. I get that this guy fucked up. We all do. But there's a difference between going 14 mph over, and parking a car, behind a curve,…

I really think you're putting way more weight on the "speeding" than is deserved. This man was doing ten mph over on a major highway. On that road, which I've personally driven, any less than that is going get you run down from behind.

If you know multiple people who have run motor vehicles into stationary objects at highway speeds, you have some incredibly dangerous-driving acquaintances. Impacts like this are exceedingly rare, largely due to the common-sense behavior that you don't act like this woman.

No, she isn't, and that's not what she's being charged for. She's a negligent criminal, and that is also illegal. One cannot behave in such a way as to bring unnecessary risk to those around them in a civilized and law-bound society.

Yup, first gen cx, with the good steel, half-serrated. If I could only carry one at work, it would have to be the tool, but it's definitely flawed as a knife.

I like where your head's at, but the skeletool really isn't very good at being a knife. I carry one at work, in addition to a Benchmade Griptilian, and get angry every time I have to cut with it.

My Benchmade Griptilian with a tanto point, and I, agree wholeheartedly. EDC for years, and my only problem is leaving them at clients house.

This applies to virtually any recipe, ever.

God damnit, Wilbon.

I thought his finger was down the slide, but you're right. Basic firearm safety, boys and girls.

I absolutely loved last night's episode. For being one where they didn't really go anywhere, I feel like this kicks off a whole bunch of new threads.

I hate to break it to you, but scoring or cross-hatching the skin is really important if your butt has the full fat layer.

It's a beautiful rant. Too bad he's wrong.

This is a really clean SPG, but that makes it a $1,500 car, not $5k.

How dare you lay out the facts of the case! This is Gawker, we don't do nuance here.

GTs are running around that price, but that's a GXP.

The G8 at half price is utterly crack pipe. I went shopping for a GXP last year, and they're still selling for north of $30k, even miled to hell and beat to shit. Good help you if you want a stick, too. It's a great car, but let's all be a bit more realistic.

So your point is that you don't like a tradition that every nation participates in, but that you're somehow a better person for complaining when your, presumably, home nation does it? You get +1 internets.

Clearly you've never watched the Olympics before. Every nation does this.
