Guyline posted:As I was scanning down, I saw a picture of a boat followed by a picture of a public area. I was starting to wonder what made either of those pictures funny until I realized that they were the same image. I live in Newcastle, Australia, saw the ship in person when it ran aground, and it still took me a couple of seconds to realise it was one photo.

Is it alright to call it hyperbolic when the contemporary emotional impact of the Titanic disaster has been reduced to that Celine 'Goddamn' Dion song? Either way grotesquely inappropriate for 'Entertainment Tonight' but I guess no one famous has died recently.

Twiggy Johnson posted:Yup, only the left side is reverse threaded. The debated picture appears to be of the front right, which means the kid is tightening. But the lug nut screws don't actually spin and they fully rotate with the tire, so I don't see why they would be reverse threaded. In bicycles, the bottom bracket is reverse threaded on one side because the axle goes through it and actually applies a little pressure on the "screws." This doesn't happen on a automobile. I've changes tires on many different vehicles and I've never encountered a reverse threaded lug nut. Unless big utility trucks and semis are different for some goofy reason.

I've changes tires on many different vehicles and I've never encountered a reverse threaded lug nut. Unless big utility trucks and semis are different for some goofy reason. I think the issue was that rapid acceleration would cause an incremental rotation of the nuts, which over time would loosen it enough to be a concern. Regardless, cars haven't had reverse threads since the 60s or 70s when they realized that a rounded lug nut provided enough friction to prevent loosening. (Thanks for not warning me when you asked me to change the tires on the Barracuda, Dad!  ) Apparently big trucks, semis, and farm equipment do still have them.
