Re: Youtube Commentator Lei

watching the video on deaths during covid - I call bs on this one. My inside source says it was difficult but absolutely nothing like the video. Care to elaborate on your Inside Sources? Most of my "Chinese" business ties were with Taiwan and pre CCP take over of Hong Kong. in laws

Re: A small chuckle to distract from the 'Usual Suspects'.

I confess,, I am the driver... and your neighbor. I stole the package . After realizing that your doorcam took a picture of me in drag I decided to complicate the issue in hopes of keeping your underwear order for myself.

Re: Left turns

I hail from the Boston metro area. Traffic controls, highway lane rules and all things related to car operation have long since been considered optional. The impact of uninsured/unlicensed drivers has driven our insurance rates sky high

Re: The REALLY Important Question On The F-47....

So the F-35 is (un)officially named Dave, continuing in this theme I would suggest naming the F-47 Donald. That'll secure funding for the next 4 years at least, and it would be fun to watch heads exploding in Congress. would that not instantly be relabeled "the duck" by certain media types?

Re: Pondering the decline of Neanderthals

I recall that last group of neanderthal bones were found in Spain. When I say last I mean that from dating the remains they appear to be the last surviving group. If the loss of megafauna is a theory then the last herd of prey would likely be in that area as well? Is there any evidence to suggest ge...

Re: Shopping at kettenkrad‼ ️

cool piece of historical hardware but Is the small motorcycle wheel realistically able to steer the vehicle on anything other than a solid road? Whats the advantage vs just two tracks? Hand throttle twist grip and wheelies. This is what Street Hawk should’ve looked like. Wheelies... Im all in

Re: Helene

The conflation of Ukraine aid and lack of aid for the Helene victims in the Hot Air post is disingenuous. It's a false dilemma which is disgusting for them to use. However beyond that there does appear to be a very, very, very real problem with Biden et al and indeed Cooper et al (Democrats, what a...

Re: Candidate for a Darwin award

There's a more reasonable explanation that that the driver was an idiot. He may not have been trained in hazardous material transportation or been given any information on what was in his tanker. Just told to get in his cab, drive to this spot, pick up a trailer, and take it to that spot. When it s...
