There’s a place near me where the speed bumps may have been reasonable at one time. But decades of snow plow impacts have carved out the leading edges to the point where it’s like smacking a curb. Narrow lanes and curves are far more humane ways of slowing people down.

I always knew this Thom Brown shit was going to get out of hand.

Plus, there’s no city on earth that can handle significant snowfall during rush hour. I’ve seen shit absolutely hit the fan in Buffalo for what would have been a manageable amount of snow if it didn’t all come down at 5pm.

The most asinine part of this is that the minor ticks are at eighths, not quarters.

Re #1: Start in second gear if you can. It will reduce wheel spin.

But we know that’s not the case, because the suit wasn’t served by someone with a GoPro on his head.

First of all, the slopes may not actually be private property. I don’t know how things work in Austria, but in the US a lot of resorts own the land that their buildings are on but the trails are on state or federal property.

I’ve been on a couple of lists that were, for some dipshit reason, set up with the list itself in the sent from field. Even if you just hit straight “reply”, it would go out to everyone. That’s moderately annoying in a small workgroup, but with more than 1000 people things can get out of hand quickly.

And a Tomcat cockpit is only slightly larger than a typical SF apartment.

And about five minutes later the adrenaline wore off, and that hurt like a bastard.

Either they’re only measuring ground clearance at the center line, or lowering the air suspension from full height brings things down below the A-arms.

It is being explored. The concussion rate in soccer is equal to that of football. Youth leagues are starting to ban heading the ball to try to reduce the number of repeated impacts, but we won’t know for years if it’s really an improvement.

It has almost nothing to do with Iran. The Saudis are dumping oil to beat down their competition. As soon as they get tired of losing so much money, the price will rebound.

But the Mercedes factory has the taste and sophistication to only put ONE of those colors on a car. Counterpoint:

Maybe if I had taken a shot every time I saw the words “high end” or “premium” I’d be too hammered right now to be thinking about how cheap the gloss black hood over matte gray looks. Too bad I’m at work.

Revving a VW should blow three fuses and a relay long before the engine gets hot enough to catch fire.

But you are supposed to kick in another 20% to have it brought to your table.

Looks like this mascot’s been Upgraded.

This reminds me of how the power window switches in the back of the old Jeep Cherokee stuck out of the doors right at knee height. It’s going to be impossible to not be constantly bumping into these switches.

Parking in that spot overnight is sketchy any time of year if it’s windy. Those waves carry a lot of projectiles with them.
