These test are non-trivial. They are, in fact, quite critical in establishing a rocket’s launch worthiness.

Rockets always explode. Its just a question of control. Does it come out of a nozzle or does it come out all over.

NASA blew up tons of shit when they were first working the kinks out of their rocket designs. Rocketry is a harsh mistress.

That holder went down like he was sniped from the rafters despite barely getting a love tap from the D-man.

If they’re going to shove a shitload of advertisements and product placement down my throat then yes, they damn well better not be charging me for it too.
But they are, and they would be, so, I didn’t watch any of it. At all.

it’s hilarious how they “blame” millennials.

the four swimmers spoke to U.S. State Department officials and they agreed to shut up. Almost immediately after the briefing, Lochte “walked across the street” and gave an interview

And in all likelihood, this won’t cause them to rethink any of this bullshit. They’ll just claim they need more money, more equipment, and more men (who will stand around twiddling their thumbs all day).

My first day, upon meeting my super-square roommate, I established the ‘sock on the door’ rule, that no one enters the room (him presumably), while a roomie was scoring. Turns out, this guy was a dork sex god. I spent the entire semester on the commons couch and I did it to myself. Literally.

He won a superbowl.

Oh good. I looks like the check cleared.

Non-joke comments with lightly interesting factual tidbits get sadly little love here.

That’s on Palm Island next to South Beach in Miami. That court is just a few doors down from Al Capone’s old house (93 Palm Ave).

We did this for you, West Coast fam.

24th Ave is residential, the opposite direction from Haywood to any restaurants. Do you mean 13th? 18th? This is irrationally driving me crazy.

I find this ambiguous. Are you saying you hope he continues to hit baseballs over fencing on some sort of regular basis for an unending period of time, or you want him to hit baseballs that literally never land?

That moment when your brain can’t decide if it should be angry or impressed.

This debate raised an important question, in my mind: when will private citizens *finally* get own drones equipped with Hellfire missiles?

I don’t think it’s an either/or situation. They are going to use the best weapon for the situation. I’m pretty sure they’re not dumping all their missiles and bullets in the trash because they have a laser now, it’s just another piece of their entire arsenal.
