The fucked up thing is Audi totally would. And WHEN the sensor dies, the car goes into limp mode and misfires.

I’m more grossed out by someone walking around in piss soaked socks. Ask any flight attendant what the liquid on the bathroom floor is. Hint: it aint water.

I’d be more worried about some letter of Hep, rather than tetanus.

I’m amazed at the number of folks that go in there in their socks. Hope they’ve had a tetanus shot.

Holy cow! Your avatar is the same as the one I use at work...wait for it. At The Boeing Company where I work in flight test engineering. Imagine your avatar popping up onscreen in the middle of someone’s presentation when they haven’t set their status to “Presenting”.

It’s a safe bet people are trying to get rid of me quickly in most interactions. I know it’s a useful troubleshooting gauge, but the primary purpose it was placed on the dash was for aesthetic kinetics, not engine diagnosis. At least according to the engineer I spoke with.

Truthfully I think jet travel gets a bad rep purely from the frustration of getting onto one. Is it any surprise that people get in all sorts of ways if the seat is too far back after spending hours just getting on the plane?

That Self Worth one in the 2CV is useless because one is always at peak self worth when you’re in a 2CV.

Funny, it’s older farts like me that frequently bemoan the state of air travel because we can remember how much better it used to be before the deregulation era started. Mind you, though the actual flights are much worse than for example my trips to Hawaii on Wardair back in the 80's, it’s the demeaning “security…

For 10% less cost per seat per flight, screw your water pressure. How you see the bathroom as some kind of escape from the cabin is beyond me. I spend as little time in that sticky, smelly den as possible.

Do what I do, wear Depends and just go in your seat! Convenient and comfortable with a pleasant warming sensation.

From NY, can confirm. Usually its a Suburban, Expedition XL, or Range Rover. Jeep Compass means that they are still in training...

That makes sense. I drove up to one once (same lake even) thinking the map showed a bridge, realized a ferry was technically a way across but I’d be waiting, I turned around. I’d believe that’s why navigation would say it was a road, my map made me think it was.

Let’s all be honest, the craft beer is the only thing of value that was lost.

First thing that came to mind. Waze will definitely direct you to take a ferry.

Looks like a Connecticut plate, which, and I say this as a mostly lifelong Connecticut resident, would explain it all.

On a serious note, there are a lot of Ferry’s that go back and forth across that lake. Any chance they ignored that the Ferry was closed for the season and drove into the lake?

The older I get, the more I appreciate the fact that at dusk one grey pathway looks like another grey road looks like another grey frozen lake. I completely understand how something like this could happen.
