We have to pretend this is a shocking violation tho.

Another fucking bad take from Hughes, add it to the mountain pile.

Dou you know how you prevent shit like that of happening to you?

When a process server look for you at your home address or office you receive him or make an appointment for a later date, instead of trying to avoid and dodge it, because that’s how you get this kind of situation. Respect the job of the others and they…

What a waste of power doing AC to DC to AC conversion.

I think this is a good experiment. As an owner of one of those cars though, my question would be on how quickly would it “wear” out the battery?

Those aren’t pillows!!! 

here’s a (supposedly) 3100sqft home for $60k.

Yeah this list would be far more helpful if it was indexed against one of the livability/happiness/safety/per capita income ratings by MSA.

Easier said than done, when you live in a small town (pop. 3000) and Walmart has put the other grocery stores out of business.

Not all of this is caused by so-called “market forces.” Some of it is just plain old greed.

oh yeah it’s just one minute. fixing now.

For Celsius, I use a poem:

I tell my youngest (18), “Love you kiddo, and remember: no hood rat shit.” It’s a stand-in for ‘be careful’ and ‘be good,’ and he understands what I mean when I say it.  

This is actually good advice. It gives them reason to pause and assess why you told them that, to look at their situation, and figure out what it is they’re doing that could be a dumb move. 

Nothing wrong in telling kids to be careful. How stupid are you?

If we’re being pedantic, ALL crashes occur during some sort of landing.

Magnetic trays are a godsend. My wife gave me one for Christmas several years ago. Best Christmas present I ever got.

No, Dumb isn’t learning. Making mistakes is learning. If you do something dumb, that means that you knew exactly what you were doing and knew better, but still chose the dumb option.  I don’t think you’re grasping this point.  Dumb is a poor decision, when experience tells otherwise.

I know the others say dont say that.  I say its fine.  Most kid mistakes are from them not thinking things through.  Just doing it without considering the consequences.  “Dont be dumb” is enough to get them to stop and think for a moment.  IF the make a mistake then they’ll  learn but at least they stopped to think…

Doing dumb things and making mistakes are mutually exclusive. Dumb things are done intentionally despite intelligence telling us otherwise.  Mistakes and failure are not intentional. No kid goes out intentionally to fail.  They will intentionally do dumb things however.
