All I know is that the older I get the more DIY becomes less and less attractive. 

Kids in the 80s were tougher. There were no bike helmets or  hockey helmets.  We had fights in school and nobody used the word “bullying”.  We also drank from the hose and didn’t wear seat belts. 

Please, they haven’t even discovered noodling yet, they’re light years behind us in hillbilly fishing technology.  

The shockwave from the near miss is what caused underwater damage to the hull. It was actually preferable to a direct hit on an armored ship.

A guy on The War Zone pointed out that in the sequence starting at 0:52 in this video, you can see a explosion-free splash during the attack on Lutzow, which is probably actually this bomb.

You’re talking about shoes and not even bringing up the Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness?

Meh. None of them strapped a pink or blue dye pack to the bomb to turn it into a giant gender reveal party.

Did you even karate in the 80s? :/

Because that’s how karate was in the 1980s. Padding came later, driven by marketing from padding manufacturers. Originally, it was just the competitor, a groin cup (for men/boys), and a mouthguard.

It’s fascinating (and revolting) how they’ve managed to co-opt the language of feminism in order to advance misogyny. What makes this even more tragic is that men really do have legitimate complaints about the narrow ways in which masculinity is constructed, it’s just that those complaints should be “my worth as a…

Is this more of a small-town thing or something? I honestly can’t even comprehend that mentality. I have so little memory of anything or anyone, apart from the handful of friends I still talk to, from high school, and I’m only 32. I still see those few friends semi-regularly, and our high school years are pretty much…

I liked this show more than I thought I would. Your review explains a lot about why. Men acting ridiculously with women as the voice of reason, I find, as I grow older, to be less of a trope and more of a reality.

“Daddy, the top came off...”

Possibly a dumb question but where do I find the aftershow? All I could find when I did a search was the Prime Rewind show about the last season.

You either missed on don’t remember him sending Popclaw into “hiding”, then visiting her on the lam and straight-up murdering her with heroin.

Shawn Ashmore is two elements away from being the Avatar.

You don't need any experience to work in a garage, you just need your own tools.

Why wouldn't you let your dad replace the springs and brakes? I know plenty of 16 year olds who can do that work with no problem.

Hand tools don't really age or go out of style. So long as you buy reasonable quality, there's no reason you can't use the same hammers, screw drivers, socket sets, wrenches, etc. for 20 years or more.

Hanging sheetrock... ahh the memories of my little brother and me (we were both over 6' and taller than my father by that time) standing in the middle of the livingroom holding sheetrock to the just-under 8' ceiling while by father operated the screw-gun. It was easier for Dad to order us to do it than it was to…
