proof that dreams come true! whoop up on Ferrari for me!

lol, no where near that miserable. Mud is drilling fluid mostly made from clay & water. It looks like & kind of is mud. Mud is very precisely engineered to certain densities and granulations. You pump the mud down the drill string to turn the drill bit and the fluid then flows back up to the surface carrying bits…

I think there's a shampoo for that lol

Yeah, plus we have advance warning so we would have stepped up security. These people can't even feed themselves and we fear them.

babelfish could translate better than that. did they use skypes new translation feature?

allrighty then! this one is one of my favorites! So, on an oil rig people often work 3 weeks on 1 week off or some such schedual (depends from company to company, rig to rig). As a result, the workout facilities and food tend to be pretty good, also the internet. people bring laptops, dvd players, fishing…

the idiocy of our fellow man knows no bounds. One time a co-worker and I were transporting a larger hydrogen gas canister to site for the gas chromatograph (or however you spell it). It was a long drive so we took turns driving the company truck. At one point my co-worker lights up a cigarette, mind you hydrogen is…

We managed to keep all the mud off of our logs, our problems were trying to get employees to stop smoking in the logging units, and to use the bathroom instead of just opening the door and peeing against it. The doors on the trailers would rot out and smell like a men's room.

generally unpinning the container is the ground crew's responsibility, not the crane operator. It would be silly for him to climb all the way down to check everything out.

sure, want to hear the one about the roustabouts catching a saltwater crocodile on the oil rig?

I really want this car to happen, owning a resto-mod Pantera is on my bucket list.

Heavy machinery operators can be a scary bunch. My father used to work at a steel mill in Chicago in the 70's and while he was tying down some steel pipes to a railroad car, the crane operator accidentally tipped over the whole car and all the steel pipes went rolling down the hill like a giant chaotic wind-chime. …

For the record, I'm a young white guy and get cut in line & treated like shit by older ladies women above 40) all the time. They get treated special because they are women and think that because they are older than you they have more rights than you, or at the very least, that no one will stop them. I hate these…

the willys was built for General Patton and was presented to him as a gift for help the the people of Scotland during WWII. IDK if that makes it worth 3/4 of a million dollars, but it definitely makes it worth more than $25K. Also, while the post was written in all caps, it wasn't really curmudgeonly. Did you even…

I find the free for all cesspool that is youtube's comments section to be quite fun. I have definitely trolled some of those commenters :) nothing makes me happier than pissing off shitty people.

I know, but it still sickens me & we have to take a stand & try to do our part to change it. Even if no one listens because they are all fools, even if the effort is wasted. A good fight is worth fighting, no matter the cost (physical, literal, or spiritual).

death to these people, I'm ashamed they are my countrymen/women

Having more money isn't supposed to buy you more rights, & I'm a 1%er. Seriously, they were there first, the race tracks owners & clientele have rights too, but their rights are inconvenient to others so why not trample them? Fuck that point of view, fuck anyone who would deny others their rights for their own…

because oversteer good

Let's just skip the pipes, loud as can be
