You guys know the Car2Go thing, right?



There was a Smart Fortwo there last night. A couple of guys covered it in snow around 2am this morning. The city plows keep pushing snow onto it, because they don't know there's a car underneath. Some poor soul got assigned that car by Car2Go, he gets there and it's just a big pile that someone put a smiley face on.

I'm just waiting for a plow to come by and try to clear the pile, only to find out it's not all snow.

As a smart fortwo driver, I find this hilarious.

I don't understand the argument this is trying to make. We've figured out heliocentrism and the earth's rotation, it is no longer an impenetrable mystery.

Usually when people 'do that argument', there's supposed to be a sense of mystery and wonder involved.

That could easily be the Costco near me (I live in a a rural area.)

We only have a Costco for the whole state. No Sam's Club, no BJs...one state; one Costco.

Ohio has five Costcos, two dozen Sam's Clubs, and half a dozen BJs.

Why, indeed...:iiam:

But yes, my little state has just one of any of the "club" stores, a Costco.

Thankfully, it's just over three miles from where I live, and even closer to where I work.

This one is my favorite, and we need an entire thread of soldiers doing funny things before the internet was invented. For some reason, being black and white with WWII gear makes that even funnier. Knowing that I might stumble upon a picture of my grandpa using a captured Panzerschreck to simulate his penis... That's comedy.

My grandpa was a tank driver and amateur photographer during WWII. A few years ago we finally went through his photo collection.

I like to think he wanted to wear the top hat into battle but didn't want to forgo wearing his helmet, so he just strapped the drat thing on top of it. Would probably have baffled the gently caress out of the Germans for a minute a well.

Sochi construction is super corrupt, but they have more whole toilets than half toilets.
