I saw a lady do that in a grocery store parking lot once and wail in pain -- must have broken her ankle or something Man, I feel bad for her. Even if she did do it to herself, it's just a pathetic state to be in.

She wasn't wearing heels, either -- just a random misstep and boom. They had to call paramedics and everything; she couldn't move.

Cobweb Heart posted:Sorry, but could someone give me the low-down on how Chris Evans has blown it on Top Gear as someone who isn't familiar with the show? Just from his photo he looks like a shriveled little nerd, so it makes sense people wouldn't want to watch him talk about cool cars, but is he also like super awkward or boring or something? He wasn't helped by the fact he was the only experienced TV presenter on the show - his co-hosts being an actor in his first major presenting role, a racing driver presenting in her second language, a former racing team owner best known for boring people to death while presenting F1 coverage, and two guys from YouTube - but he just never settled and somehow ended up being the worst of all of them.

Hopefully this means they can give the others more screentime. Sabine  Chris Harris

I watched the first episode and thought Chris was trying way too hard to be Clarkson. quote:Jeremy Clarkson must be laughing his arse off. Probably bitter laughter since his new show might be getting cancelled before it starts due to the brexit.

Years ago one of my co-workers, who was a short and slender lady, broke her ankle by stepping out of her vehicle at exactly the wrong angle. Being overweight adds stresses to the joints, but it's not like the condition of 'suddenly tendons tear' is somehow exclusive to the obviously abhorrent state of fatness.

NLJP posted:So I only came across this just now. I'm only vaguely aware about the whole CS:Go weapon skins market etc. but it turns out people have been gambling using skins for the last few years. Two of the biggest youtubers who posted loads of videos of them gambling and winning on one of these lotto sites... which it later turned out that they owned. The real schaden, Back in April, Bloomberg ran a report on how it claimed virtual weapons were turning teenage gamers into serious gamblers, which pegged the video game betting boom at generating $2.3bn last year. 2.3 billions dollars for jpegs, its worse than star citizen. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-07-04-youtube-stars-criticised-after-it-emerges-they-owned-gambling-site-they-promoted

I know this might be a silly question but could the US government actually come down on CS:GO skin gambling or could the people running it and/or Valve weasel their way out with semantics about the skins not holding real monetary value?

I'm pretty sure it could depending on the state, I've seen shops here get busted for having non-cash gambling things going on due to Hawaii's fairly strict gambling rules.

The US government is well aware of people trying to skirt gambling rules with "not money", which has included things like Second Life Dollars and Bitcoins; they take a pretty dim view of it. The biggest concern seems to be how easy it is to turn that thing back into money, and turning Steam Dollars into Real Dollars is pretty straightforward if time intensive.

RareAcumen posted:So, is it safe to extinguish fireworks or would that be a bad decision? Most fireworks have oxidizers so you can't smother them. soaking them in water is useful only if they've got some embers on a potential dud that you're worried about. When they're cooking off like that your best bet is to just stand far far far away.

Ah, so it's just like acetylene tanks. Alright. Lurking Haro posted:Dousing them with water can actually keep the others from going off. That makes sense and I got that far but I just didn't know anything about Fireworks interacting with Fire extinguishers so I didn't know if mixing them was a bad idea or not.

So the only way we're going to ever see episode 3 is if the US government enacts stricter gambling laws and cracks down on virtual gambling.
