it would be pretty cool if that habsburg scion who races cars got smashed and lost all his organs, the fact that there are still habsburgs was a serious misstep in human history

I can tell you from experience that flying loving sucks when you're that tall, and I'm a skinny motherfucker. Even short 2 hour flights would ruin my back/legs.

I saw some Instagram post from a friend recently about how traveling with young children is easiest if you get the bulkhead row. As a tall goon, I was livid. Leave that row for us!! :mad:

I am both tall and kid-having, I lay full claim to the bulkhead row.

So you would probably need physiotherapy to recover from longhaul

I did Dublin - Heathrow - LAX - Auckland (24+ hours in the air in a 36 hour period) and it was horrible because I really hate flying but at least I'm only 5' 7

At six feet I'm not exceptionally tall but even that height makes flying loving awful. I can't imagine how much worse it would suck to be taller.

Whenever I have to buy a new car the absolute first thing I do is sit in it. Most cars can't comfortably fit my legs even if I put the seat the whole way back. I saw a picture if Shaw trying to get in a car and was like "wow, I got nothing on how much my size sucks compared to that."

The car I own right now is the only thing I've ever driven that I don't have to shove the seat the whole way back on and I'm not even a big dude.

If the car isnt comfortable I don't give a poo poo about anything else and most cars don't fit me. Better to just get that out of the way.

Still crazy to me that you would sit in the car before doing stuff like driving the car, jumping on the hood, etc.

I�m making fun of the fact that he said the first thing he does when looking at a new car is to sit in it. As if that�s not the first thing every other human who has ever bought a car did.

It isn't among a lot of people I know. I was taught to do stuff like look at the engine first.

I know people with far too much money who buy their cars before they're even bloody built.

Meanwhile, my car is approaching it's 17th birthday and I'm desperately hoping it'll last another year or two before it gets too expensive to drive.

He�s not. I met him in ~1985 at some California GOP fundraising shindig(my GF�s best friend�s father was a state senator and I got roped into going) and he was roughly six foot even, maybe a smidge shorter. I�m an honest 6�2� and he wasn�t even close to my height.

Also, he was an arrogant rear end at this function, but that�s another story.

Dropping a re-entry device into a borehole drilled into an active submarine volcano.

Here's an article from some New Zealand press about it.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12045742

It's a pretty exciting expedition, scientifically. Also in terms of engineering since we'll be deploying a new coring system developed by our Japanese partner agency for the first time outside of testing.

He was a Republican so of course he was a shithead, that is like built in.

On steroid chat, there's lots of different ways to do it. I seriously think I'm gonna go on Testosterone replacement therapy when I hit 40 and/or blood test low.

You're thinking of the Old Ones. The Deep Ones will just trigger underwater landslides and giant tsunamis.
