Goodbye schad thread. Now that's it's gone from GBS I will rarely see it and therefore not contribute often.

It was a good 4 year run.

Can you not bookmark it?

I don't bookmark threads. You have to see them first in the wild in order to bookmark them and that's the benefit of not just going through your bookmarked list. You see more threads that might be interesting. :)

Also I'm very lazy.

I believe it auto bookmarks a thread when you post in it.

That is true. And I just checked for maybe the 3rd time since I've had an account and I have 39 pages of bookmarked threads. Yikes.

So you don't use bookmarks, to ensure that you get to see more threads. But then complain that you won't see this thread, because you won't bookmark it. :raise:

No, I just won't see it as often as I don't visit PYF very frequently and I only look at the meme thread here.

Wow. That went under fast.

I just saw a meme yesterday that I think was intended to be praising trucks but it was two of some model of maybe Ford truck, same color, same model, 30 years apart, and the new one is literally twice the size.

Big trucks are really stupid.

One hour on a AAA game isn't enough time to know if it's good since the tutorial phase usually lasts about 3 hours. That first hour lets you determine if the game actually runs well enough on your machine.

A bunch of people were rightfully pissed off when the latest MS Flight Sim released a few years ago. The Steam download was just their own downloader. So tons of people who downloaded the "game" went over the refund limit simply because it considered the MS downloader being the game running. And it took hours to download the game when it came out.

In boot camp they didn't have doors on the stalls. I'd time my poops at night after lights out because I didn't have time during the day. One time I went to the last stall on the left side of the room and some moron (texan of course) goes to the last stall on the far right directly across from me. So he's just like, trying to talk to me while I'm making GBS threads and commenting on my wiping technique. Weirdo.

I had to stop watching The Punisher with John Bernthal because 1) it was boring as poo poo, and 2) Ben Barnes would take a super loud and quick breath before just about anything he said and it drove me insane.

As someone who didn't see snow until their 20s, it comes in a surprising variety.

As someone who was born unto the snow, yeah. It can be a wonderful fluffy powder that you can make snow angels in or just straight up hard rear end ice. Like two feet of snow that you can stroll on top of like Legolas.

I, again, just hit some clumped snow from a plow with my car while turning into my driveway a few days ago and it popped a panel out on the front of my Forester.

Your forester would be exempt, since it's based on curb weight. It's just right at the top end but still.

Ah ok, so they're focusing on the big poo poo like those old Suburban and Escalade type stuff I guess? Most modern SUVs I see aren't that big.

I don't know how they classify cars in France but mine is classified as an SUV so I assumed that when the article pic said SUVs I assumed all SUVs, which I figure is the natural assumption.

What about trucks? That would have been my #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5 target before even looking at anything else. What about super heavy muscle cars? Why just SUVs? I see tons of work SUVs every day.

The NPR program I was very briefly listening to a few days ago had mixed opinions from Parisians.

Seems very stupid and targeted while missing the point completely, but I haven't read anything about it besides that pic so I can only assume I'm missing important details. I'm too lazy to look it up right now. :)
