White water rapids are super fun right up to the waterfall.

But nah...... things that work now are guaranteed to last forever.

Hmmmm.

That being said, among the chicken keepers, shooting dogs that don't know to not kill the livestock is kind of a common thing.

A lot of appliances used to have metal gears and such, and now they're almost all plastic. The old stuff is universally considered more reliable, even though people will just dismiss the observations as "that's just survivor bias." Because these people have a need to argue over anything an...

Meh. Even if it's just cooties. No grappling. It would be too funny watching them writhe on the ground, tbh.

I think they build to last the 3-year warranty. Anything else doesn't make sense for them. Planned obsolescence as a marketing strategy is a well documented thing.

Bad Economic Predictions

Tucker tried to break into the automotive insdustry when it was well-established, with a better product. The automakers were dishonest and killed him. Musk is doing something with Tesla, but his cars are arguably the worst-built on the road. That company is surviving with an EV model that may or may...

i'd step in for a woman, child, or clearly outmatched dude who didn't have it coming.

I wouldn't step in for a paid security guy. He should have been a hell of a lot better than that.

The car you drive

I share this in case any of you plan on keeping cars long-term. I wish I had done this 5 years ago, before it was rusty and it would have been a simple thing to just spray the underside of the car once a year. this is just a northern thing right?

I watched my neighbor return his boat/trailer in from Lake Erie one day, and as soon as he had it parked a mama and two baby racoons crawled out from somewhere under the trailer.

The car you drive

So since I discovered my beloved, paid-off truck was rusting away, I've been doing some research about this topic. Looks like it's common knowledge with car people that you need to start a rust treatment when the car is 5-10 years old. If you start then you stay ahead of the rust, and it's no big de...
