Simply put, the FAA does not fuck around. Ever. The stick up their ass has a stick up its ass and as a result, everyone everywhere follows the rules. When rules are followed, planes don’t fall out of the sky. The FAA is a large part of the reason why air travel is the safest mode of transportation on this planet.

The court should find in favor of saving the public from hearing anything more about either of them by banning any further press or media coverage of the trial. They should then both be banished to a 1,000 sq ft island where they have to spend the rest of their lives together. 

I hate this for you.

“I slowly feathered the brakes as I’m going to compensate for my balls dragging down the runway...”

I’d do it. Not with one I own, but I’d track someone else’s. 

“You can’t just make mountains disappear”

Yea, throwing shit off overpasses can be extremely dangerous and should never be applauded, even if the other side is a bunch of assholes.

I’d argue there’s two groups of assholes here. The ones throwing things off an overpass and the ones clogging up the highways in the name of FreeDumb.

Skipped article just to say, Hit it, CC. 

They could make F1 a lot more exciting by just grabbing a bunch of old stock from a local tire shop and passing out sets at random to each team.

I don’t disagree that at a high level, this isn’t so different than pulling parts off of 3 junk yard cars to make a single car. (anything you built that way would probably be worth a lot less and get you a salvage title, presumably)

Sort of a classic “Ship of Theseus” problem. What is a car? Is the body of the car really the car? Or is the chassis what counts as the car? What about replacing damaged body panels after a crash? If the VIN was stamped on those body pieces, now you have multiple VINs because you had to. For emissions, I think that…

EXACTLY!! Then take those Round headlights, mount them to mechanically hiding housings, Pop-up housings, if you will. Now you’ve got a happy face car!

I just say, “Don’t be dumb.” We all know what that means and so do they.

“little skill involved” Tell me you’ve never driven down a drag strip without telling me you’ve never driven down a drag strip...

Right as the police were dragging this person out of the plane, someone should've whispered in their ear,"Thanks for the DNA."

Can you imagine the Boomer factory original MOPAR types with something like your parts-bin special?

Whippersnappers! Someone thought it would be great to slip an anemic V-8 into a Chevy Monza. If any still exist (doubtful due to 70's rust and engineering), they are still running with the original rear spark plugs both sides. 

In the mid to late 1970s Ford interns were given a heater core and the task of designing a car around it. The result was the fox body Mustang. To be honest, the heat works fine. The problem is that if that heater core should leak, the entirety of the vehicle must be disassembled to replace it.
