Didn’t flying wings fail because people on the outside move up / down 100ft every time the plane turns?

This. Nobody’s talking about points and condensers here. Comparing late 90s’s / 2000's to 2010's is where the question gets interesting.

It seems like the ‘dark comedy’ thing was a pivot, at least in how they cut the commercials. The first one was all serious and was hilariously self-important.

Ah, didn’t realize that was the purpose of those. 

I wonder if some kind of egg-crate pattern in the concrete would help

Because that’s not what the listicle is about. My concern is that when a well-regarded company like Reuters puts something in rank-order, there is an implied quantitative method employed. That’s obviously not the case here. When articles present editorial zingers under a veneer of objectivity we all get dumber.

We’re seriously expected to believe that women are worse off here than in El Salvador? Gimme a fuckin break

I mean, I’m not thrilled about mercedes being the ones who rip him off, and that they were doing it as SOP and not because of his tacky-ass instagram...

They’ve worked pretty hard to keep the ATF hobbled. How can there be effective enforcement from an agency that is forced to use paper records?

No insurance company would write a policy that people are required to buy?

I could be wrong here, but I didn’t see it as unironic. More ‘nice guy’ as in “Look at me I am the most consent-affirming and therefore deserve sex with you”

This is a deeply uninformed statement.

Soo, anybody called dibs on the engine?

“So these colors are like... really intense. There’s this blue one, and then a black one, and I guess a pink one too. Anyway, thanks for the clicks!”

It did. apparently the author couldn’t be bothered to spend five fucking minutes on wikipedia to find one of the examples from the animal kingdom, the most recognizable source of structural color.

Another Chinese no-name watch, this time whitelabeled by a company in Dallas! That’s the second-largest city in Texas!

Maybe I’m missing something? I thought her letter was essentially “I have a bunch of followers, you’ll get a bunch of exposure.”

It’s not the “I hate millenials” thing. It’s that the difference between being a savvy influencer and some dumbass who wants free shit is demonstrable ROI. She didn’t have it, so she sounded like the latter.

For that price you could be in a low mileage XJ8, but that’s a completely different car. As is the GTI.

But I saw someone who looked younger than me driving one once, and he blipped the throttle at a stoplight! And I didn’t like his hat! They’re all self-destructing beat-on trash!
