I doubt it if >1 of them are from Anglophone countries, given the massive prevalence of high rising terminal (a/k/a “uptalk”) throughout the English-speaking world.

Pedro Martinez led Boston to an improbable championship while also dragging a tiny person around with him everywhere he went, does that count? :-)

So the same country that gave Saddam Hussein highly-detailed satellite recon, including targeting coordinates, back in 1988 with the full knowledge he would use them to launch VX and sarin warheads at the Iranians is now super concerned about Iranian satellites? Never change, America.

About time. There are almost no “accidents”; a true “accident” is something like a tree falling right in front of you at the most inopportune time, or a landslide, maybe a particularly suicidal deer, something along those lines. Most of what society calls car “accidents” are simply varying degrees of negligence and/or…

Yeah, well, if you plan on ever travelling anywhere in the Third World and don’t want to be left completely at the mercy of a limited array of shitty public transportation options, there’s definitely a point to learning.

Done; after waiting since December I finally took delivery of my ‘22 BRZ Ltd last month. I’ll only drive it May-Oct as salt season is legitimately 6 mos/yr here, so based on the results I saw with my FR-S under the same conditions, it’ll only accrue ~5K mi/yr. I’m in my mid-40s and would be stunned if I saw anything…

No worries, they’re all diatomic gasses in the end. :-)

Maybe it’s just the old Hindenburg footage talking, but I definitely don’t want hydrogen in my tires, thank you.

I’m not so sure, there’s definitely a certain strain of white woman who believe they were born with an invisible radar gun that endows them with the ability to magically know everyone else’s speed, for the purpose of hectoring innocent strangers. I once had a woman shriek at the top of her lungs at me from the…

“Well, I’m glad they forgot about Grandpa.”

“Tracking people’s GPS location 24/7 and asking them to submit random face scans throughout the day is simply cruel, degrading, unnecessary, and—we argue—unlawful.”

“Is there tap water in this?”

My insurance agent. The police are never going to arrive in time to “help” with a violent crime anyway, many of them will admit as much, so there’s no point even considering that; there’s a reason they’re called “law enforcement” and not “crime prevention”. Meanwhile, about 2/3 of property crimes in the U.S. go…

Depends on the drug and the country. E.g., Iran famously doesn’t give a fuck about opium, it’s so widely available that close to 3% of the adult population are classed as addicts.

“Zeus of Child” sounds like a shoo-in for a podium finish on the next “Little Buff Boys”.

At that point, I just called a local locksmith directly; he arrived in 15 minutes and had us on the road soon after. The locksmith said he regularly worked with AAA, and told us to submit our receipt to AAA for compensation.

Amen, at least as shown in the video, the oblivious moron biker never even looked to his right as he blithely sailed through the intersection without a care in the world, and it was a one-way street with traffic coming from only that direction. It’s a wonder this guy has evaded the forces of natural selection this…

“an uncodified criminal code”

Agreed. Speaking of jokes about fat people, he’s also very severely hostile to overweight people, to the point where most of his jokes on the topic aren’t even close to being funny, it’s just pure, unalloyed hatred, he clearly despises them, on a pathological level. It’s pathetic coming from someone who as earned as…

This is the same country that sentenced Jack Ruby to death, unfortunately...
