weird... Horse-meat is delicious and it's expensive to keep them until they're old.

Bigger question is why do truckers continue to drive down a highway at speed with their dump beds raised?

I get why there are reasons you would need to be able to drive forward (slowly) with the bed raised, but if they're too cheap to install some kind of governor interlock, the least they could do is put a Stuka style siren on them so it's blatantly obvious when they're NYEEEEEEEEEERing down the highway at 70 mph. Not that it would stop people from doing it, but now at least there's a clear audible alarm to other drivers to stay well clear.

I have an adrenal condition and am not supposed to eat black licorice because of that. I always thought the warning was kind of bullshit until now.

I will wager that grandpa here didn't dispatch and promptly slaughter said horse but instead discovered it post-mortem (just how post is kinda the rub) and decided to roll the dice.

Wattsamatta posted:A lot of this rear end in a top hat drive = x car chat is very regionally dependent in my opinion. The only reason why they weren't more widespread in MT is because no one wants to open a German repair shop in a place that's not already swarming in VAG cars. My dad still insists that he'll never get a VW because it'd be too hard to get the oil changed.

I honestly have no clue what almost did him in. My guess would be that the average American diet doesn't really include horse, because every time I have a friend accidentally eat horse in a foreign country, the tale almost always includes diarrhea (apparently horse meat has pretty similar texture to beef). Grandpa has definitely eaten some...ponderously sourced animals, and I'm not really sure if he actually killed the horse and then ate it, or discovered that she had finally died and said "No sense in that going to waste!" in that wonderful can-do depression era vibe that he's still carrying around to this day.

The noise this thing makes at 0:32 is terrifying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLLG2_ErvJs&t=27s The g-forces it was under caused the oil filter housing to break off, over sped the propeller which broke off causing the engine to lose all load and then the 720 cubic inch twin-turbo engine at full throttle at 3000 RPM had an, uhh, excursion, to north of 8000 RPM. Keep watching to see how the engine ended up. He lands it safely, but that's a rough day at the office.

A friend had that happen to a guy at his current job a few years ago. The dude was way worse off when cutting into a 55 gallon barrel, third degree burns and damaged lung tissue when the entire top blew up. He was in a medically induced coma for a good bit. Don't gently caress around with barrels.

Turns out he refused to drive the old parts runner as it had a bad case of veering left at speeds due to something fucky in the steering. He was relegated to another position and a new young driver took over parts ute. Was warned about the veering (which was also reported but ignored by the company). Yeah, he rolled it off a highway into an embankment. About this tuime I notice the van the driver has idling reeks of fuel. Yep, got a visible leak in the tank and you guessed it, the company don't care. I've swiftly reported to the company anyway that any of their vehicles are banned from my site (I deal with a lot of flammable gases at my site). loving idiots trying to save a buck by not doing ANY maintenance! EDIT: We can't talk, one of our tankers was ordered to drive through a city centre with faulty brakes to the mechanics to save the cost of a tow.

I did this myself recently. I cut open two 55 gallon barrels that used to contain diesel. I left them open a few days to air out, then I poured in some water and sloshed it around. Then to be sure I tossed in some burning rags inside (holding the rag with a poker). Then I cut them open.

We had a guy who was trying to cut open an old heating oil tank using an angle grinder. There was still fuel leaking out of it, sparks flying everywhere. My boss tried to be all like "yo don't do that you'll probably kill yourself and blow up the shop"! His response was "don't worry, I'll just keep the sparks away from the fuel". I know its diesel so a lot less volatile than straight gas, but still, it wasn't the smartest thing to do. A fuckin sawzall which we have at the shop probably would have been much less potentially explodey.

There was this lady who ran a palm tree trimming service in my mom's neighborhood. One year mom went to set up a trimming and the husband answered, so she asked where the lady was. "She died, she fell out of a tree. I kept telling her to wear a harness but she wouldn't," said the husband. Didn't just die, she broke her neck and was in the hospital dying for a week or so then died. Anyway, safety first. e, content: https://i.imgur.com/iaSalQm.mp4

Memento posted:The noise this thing makes at 0:32 is terrifying. The discussion of the weight and balance of the plane after a catastrophic failure as a way of calculating and coping with their friends survival chances, followed by the jokes about the quality of aircraft parts as the probability of survival increases as he successfully recovers is the most "plane guys" thing ever. You can hear the panic in their voices at first followed by the increasing relief once Kevin is in a nice descent and smooth turn then joking on the radio.

That excellent safety squint. One of my buddies recently got into welding. Dude had forgotten about the UV light that is given off by the welder and as a result, had this excellent burn from bandana , around his eyeballs (he was wearing his goggles), to the front and sides of his nose, all around his chin, and down the front of his neck to collar line. A truly excellent sunburn, poor guy looked like he was wearing really misshapen clown prosthetics from all the swelling.
