Other problems with the van’s interior include a saggy headliner...I plan to do nothing about that headliner

The German word for epoxy is “Epoxid-Klebstoff” or “Komponenten-Kleber.”

Bricklayer florist?  Sounds like the next Dos Equis spokesman.

Pretty much exactly as I imagined it - thanks for sharing.

Never finished anything he started vehicle wise. Got in David Tracy level problems. Growing up we had a 63 Corvair, a 37 Chevy and a 49 Hudson in the backyard. As soon as the garage was done, my sister put a 60 Vette that needed a new frame in it. Before we finished it, my sister traded the pile of parts for a 65…

4th Gear: My dad retired early (mid 50s). A lot of guys in the neighborhood also had early retirement. My dad outlived them all by 20+ years. His secret?

So anime fans, more or less, is this Japan’s Simpsons?

let those lying sailors who insist they’ve never taken a piss off the fantail after midrats cast the first turd. 

It’s impossible to switch back to using steam. The entire ship is designed to use EMALS. There’s EMALS equipment and cabling all over the ship, and none of the equipment it would need to use steam catapults. Switching back to steam would require a complete retrofit. President Trump demanded that they switch back to…

There is clearly an air pump and a filter cartridge in this picture. Even without the pump running, air will still flow through the filter and into the chamber, it just won’t be a positively-pressurized environment anymore.

For.... what exactly? Like, what is the specific charge here? Child endangerment? Because that’s absolutely no way to win that argument, considering this just appears to be a plastic case with some commercial filters installed on it, whose entire purposes it to... let air in, making this thing about as dangerous as a…

  Yeah, it’s all fun and cosplay until you realize they are the only survivors.

Are we sure this is just cosplay?
