That old front end was like getting kicked in the eyeballs... God that was/is awful.

Too bad, because otherwise I like the MKZ. Such a butterface...

Your observation about “nation-building” is an intriguing one. I can’t help but wonder if this attack is an effort to stabilize whatever caliphate they’re trying to establish.

Hard to make a country when the citizens are fleeing en masse. Terrorizing Europe into closing its borders would leave refugees with nowhere to…

I’m mixed on it.

Yes, who would’ve thought that mooring could be the fatal weakness of the airship?

(LOL. You’re not actually wrong. It was just funnier this way. Jeeze, no hotlink love this morning.)

I actually had this exact scenario play out while I was working on getting my pilots license. After landing my IP had me clear the runway, but rather than taxiing back he suggested that I rotate the plane on the apron just off the runway. “You’re not gonna want to miss this,” he grinned.

30 seconds later 2 ‘hogs came…

I’ve always wondered why we lost interest in Venus.

A) It seems like it also has the potential for colonization someday, and

B) if we were to attempt to make it hospitable for human life, the terraforming would involve dealing with greenhouse gasses and runaway global warming. It seems like the technologies we could…

Symbiosis is cool! (If science ever discovers a hardliquorguide, let me know! :) )

Yes, I suppose it could be because of white privilege, or maybe it’s because he’s a sociopathic serial killer!

Now people will think I’m overcompensating every time I drive my E100... Great... :)

Yeah, 100% continues to be a bit far out, but I know that Trophy has had some successful engagements on behalf of the IDF’s Merkavas.

I wrote a fanfic about Anthony Hopkins having sex with a haunted Grand Marquis. Does that count?

DU would take a pounding, but it should still provide sufficient protection from a fairly robust shaped charge hit. The tank would be crippled, but in theory the armor should deflect the bulk of the blast up and away from the crew compartment and ammunition. At the very least it should keep the tank from brewing up…

I think we need to come up with a new corollary to Godwin’s Law on this.

False. The greatest Canadian ever born is Steve Smith. It’s like science.

(Or possibly Bret “The Hitman” Hart... It’s an inexact science.)

Food distribution excellence indeed!

Is “friend-itute” a word? Can we make it one?

Anybody else notice a MiG-29 hiding in there?

Did I see a little IDDQD flash in the gif?

For some reason I read this as “ISIS photobombed this photographer’s Perseid meteor shower shoot.” I clicked in ready for much hilarity and frat boy hijinks by a group of masked extremists...

I desperately want to find every example of the Wilhelm Scream and dub this lady over it.

EDIT: Holy crap, just rewatched the original video and realized you can hear her over the sound of multiple cranes collapsing, a flat boat nearly capsizing, and 100 tons of prefabbed asphalt destroying multiple houses... Amazing.
