I would say the biggest negative impact super lifted trucks have on traffic safety is the visibility issues they create for other drivers. Not being able to see more than 15 feet ahead can make drivers skiddish.

You should also make your last-minute mad dash in a 25+ year old RV that has had no maintenance performed in the last decade.

Yikes. Didn’t know it had gotten so bad people had to start seeing Aggie docs.

Basically, they finally got a pro in there to execute the original plan. 

I’m picturing a group trying to recreate the Wade Boggs Challenge on a cross-country Amtrak trip.

They targeted the wrong state.  Hawaii is the ideal place for this car.  You could sell, like, ten of them.

I agree with this, and I have the gatefold of Kiln House tattoo’d on my shoulder. That artwork was done by Christine McVie before she officially joined the group, which may be why it is such an outlier.

Two decades of endless wars where troops were conditioned to suspect anyone not in the same uniform to be a potential threat is going to leave us with some f’d up police and security forces for a while.

I’m sure there was some stand-up comic in the 80's that had a bit about what life would be like if every driver was a pizza delivery guy. We are living in that world now, where every body either has no idea where they are or are so comfortable where they are that they pay no attention.

Kinja mangled. Tried to link to Kenneth Burke’s “Permanence & Change” book.

the inability of the often municipal transport companies to adapt to the permanently changing needs of the people.

As my ol’ Pappy used to say, “Money is a lot like garbage; make a big enough pile of it, and vermin are sure to show up.”

Obligatory:

Whenever I hear about a parent who is going to “teach” their child about money by “lending” them some, I note that there are 7 billion other people in the world that would be willing to teach them real lessons about money, but only a couple (at most) of people who can offer unconditional love. Fake loans with optional…

Himself .  We had the audio cassette and the VHS tape. It’s the one with “Chocolate Cake for Breakfast”, “The Dentist” and “The Same Thing Happens Every Night”

There’s also part of that joke where the mother comes to the hospital: “Did he have on clean underwear?” To which the doctor responds: “Yes, we found it in the glove compartment.”

I guess Carlos Mencia isn’t the only one to steal Cosby’s jokes.
