FLIGHT SAFETY TIP: Fatties out first

Well, gently caress.

That's just the standard text that comes with any severe thunderstorm watch/warning. I'm assuming you're up in GP (where the watch is?)...for the next couple hours, you're in the clear, but as that quasi-stationary trough moves east (quasi-stationary meaning it moves at less than 5 knots), you're going to have unsettled weather for at least the next 18-24 hours, with tomorrow afternoon giving the greatest potential for the development of severe thunderstorms.

I would say that the single biggest concern associated with this is, rather than winds and hail, the potential for forest fire.

Thought of your Rover owners today; there was a vehicle in the parking lot below my office whose anti-theft was going off almost continuously all afternoon. Wheeled over to the window and there it was...a P38 honking frantically like it was separated from its parents.

I have some Mongols who live nearby. Evidently their product is good because they can party for days.

Kumis is pretty crazy stuff from what I hear. You drink a bottle of that stuff and you'll want to conquer the world!

How much space would 3000 pairs of socks even take up?

E: Holy poo poo I did the math and it's like six cubic meters. Basically you'd be filling up a walk-in closet from floor to ceiling.

Most model/brand specific forums are humanity as a whole is terrifying, firstly because everything becomes an echo chamber with large cliques spouting the same bullshit, and those cliques never follow the most intelligent, only the loudest.

I think you're actually hearing the flat-plane crank there, not a V6.

That doesn't sound flat crank at all - some sort of funky exhaust routing maybe.

I just read the news about Drive...what the hell are they thinking, that people actually want to pay to watch Noted Windbag Leo Parente spout on for hours?

I mean, Chris Harris is good and their "Inside" videos are pretty good, but I just don't find anything else they do interesting enough to watch for free, much less for a subscription.
