I can't remember for sure who was into Roller Derby but . . .

It was @Dei.

Man, it's been forever since I thought about Static X, though.... well, maybe not forever forever, I think their lead singer died a few years ago.

It's a classic.
Even @Ravenpoe once called it: "Brilliant."

Remember when every turbo encabulator had a girdle spring? Now that shit's all gone digital. They don't even synchronize the cardinal grammeters right. What a waste.

It's still summer until Sept. 22, dammit! I'm going in the pool! Gimme my shorts and tank tops!

...until the first actual day that I need to wear long sleeves and pants, then pass the pumpkin everything.

Colorado would like a word with you...

That's not weird weather.

Well, you're literally talking about Colorado, so I don't think you need a disclaimer.

This is freaking adorable!

She's doing that same thing Data did after getting the emotion chip.

The Lion King in 120 seconds.



Is that too long? Here, Lion King in 60 seconds (sound)

WHY DOE SHE WIPE HER FACE?!?

God damn was that funny, though.

 

[PatrThom]

WHY DOE SHE WIPE HER FACE?!?

She does look a little like she's doing an impression of a housefly there at the end, doesn't she?

Your tire from Amazon arrived.

 

[Tinwhistler]

imagine trying to figure that shit out if you didn't have a Ring

See, this is what I was waiting for.

@DarkAudit



It just goes on and on, and you can't look away.
It's like some kind of barely-moving shipping calamity.

And we wonder why the Tempe Lake Railway Bridge burned.

And still no answer as to how it happened.

And still no answer as to how it happened.

Those car carriers are taller than other railcars, so one theory is they neglected to account for that when routing the train.

 

[jwhouk]

Somewhere in Durham, North Carolina, a bridge is creaking quietly in laughter.

Right. It's...it's in the title of the video and everything (thought admittedly it got cut off in the thumbnail).

I'm waiting for all the outcry "The engineer should've taken a different route" or "should've slammed on the brakes" from people who just don't understand how trains work.

The title is cut off in the video itself when I play it on the forum, I have to actually go to Youtube to see the whole title. Not sure if that's the case for you or anyone else.

 

[PatrThom]

That's how it works for any title that's too long to fit.

I'm with you. The fault lies elsewhere. The train cars should have ducked. It's a shame how individual responsibility is so maligned these days.

Oh my god the victim blaming these days. We shouldn't be telling trains to duck, we should be telling bridges to not get in the way.
