They ought to put him on a black list for the carrier’s safety. No more service to his address.
Rented the biggest truck they had at home Depot.
American trucks are so shit that it still wouldn’t fit the small length of lino I had cut for my bunny room.
Shoulda just tied it to my little car and saved the 70 bucks.
They all racist AF, except for Bosmer. They think everyone is equally tasty.
Mad magazine, Nat Geo, or if all else fails, back of the shampoo bottle.
Jetpack is just a rocket (or jet, but most of the depicted jetpacks are rockets) that you wear on your back. You’d land the same way the falcon booster lands, by firing the rockets to slow your descent.
Already exists.
No, but I wouldn’t call delivering gravel high skill labor that I couldn’t do.
Sure there are legitimate needs for trucks. The vast majority of truck owners buy them to look cool, instead of actually doing truck things with them. Be proud that you may be the exception to the rule.
Vans, you’re thinking of vans. Becuase you can lock up all your expensive tools in a van, it keeps rain off your supplies, it gives you a mobile workspace with AC, and you can take out the seats or reconfigure it for the job at hand. All the tradesmen I know drive vans. All the idiots I know who want an expensive mall crawling pavement princess so they look like they could do actual work, buy trucks.
Frankly, it was probably cracking and pinging all the way down, even on normal dives. They had steel titanium outer caps on the ends, and carbon fiber in the middle, those two materials stretch and compress very differently under extreme loads.
Send me a link and I can get you to ~12 million and 1 listens.
Hmmm. Maybe I need better glasses, but I sure as hell doesn’t look like I said anything about child development there.
You directly compared owning, customizing, and shooting a gun to the way a child would develop the ability to play a musical instrument.
Where?
Cool. I didn’t say anything about child development. Nice looking scarecrow you got there.
If that’s how you want to read in to it, sure. It less about a gun being as safe, or as socially acceptable, and more about the psychological satisfaction granted from striving to perfect your usage of a tool. I could make the same comparisons to carpentry, archery, cooking, go-karting, golfing…etc.
No. They aren’t thinking the potential long term cost of their own actions, let alone the knock-on effects caused by the actions of their unexamined actions.
Some people see gun usage as a sporting activity. Go out and hit some targets, see how fast, or precise you can be, it’s also fun to just blast things. I could easily see a family that shoots together gifting their child an AR pattern rifle after they got used to shooting mom’s or dad’s firearm. It gives them their own platform to customize and practice on, akin to a musical instrument.
That being said, I think it should take a lot more trust, awareness, and scrutiny from the parents, which was clearly missing in this case. This is more like giving the keys for your Dodge Pickup to your teen when they are absolutely hammered.
And the exothermic reaction is really weak. Barely gets warm.
I think rule 2 is…
A sucker is born every minute.
