Sure, you could pay a mathmagician to cook up the perfect slide or you could test drive it yourself and now you know how many feet you gotta move the pool to do a perfect landing, for free.

I'm not sure that landing in a kiddie pool with a foot of water in it would have made much of a difference

It's reasonable. I've certainly found myself disarmed by an unexpected hug.

Oh, wait, I think I get it now. Do you mean it returns to neutral before you even make your turn? Like, you can push the handle, but once you're not pushing it, it returns to center and the signal stays on until the end of your turns?

Otherwise, I don't know what you're talking about.

If it's what I have, you just push it a little bit so it doesn't click in place and instead it just flashes three times, for changing lanes. For actual turns you push it all the way where it stays on until you've completed a turn.

I don't know if the dirt under him's too loose or what, but it's fascinating that he basically just does not accelerate at all in straightaway leading to the jump. It's hard to tell if he's even trying at all.

I thought it looked like he slowed down a bit even. Maybe he lost his nerve?

In his defense, if he had landed a foot further back, then he would have had lots of real pull-ups in his future.

The “mix it shake it shoot it” is Tannerite, a legal explosive useful for long range shooting that only detonates with high caliber weapons (or blasting caps, I suppose).

Also used by guys who want to fill an old car with it and blow their leg clean off.

If you're a dashcam aficionado but you're sick of compilations that are padded out with near misses or traffic rules faux pas or old clips you've already seen then give this channel a go:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6Oxbc60RqY&t=12s

It's all crashes all the time! Their compilations are usually 11 to 15 minutes long and I just watched a bunch and didn't spot a single clip I'd already seen anywhere else.

One warning though: some of their clips are pretty gnarly, there were a few compilations I decided not to post here because there were some really bad crashes where people probably died or horses ran into the street and got knocked down or similar.

Big fan of the way the cops arrived on the scene of the crash starting at 3:06. That's style.

Those things don't come off under the weight of a jersey. I've busted my head on those things, they are loving solid. Something else happened, although I can see why you might not have all the correct details for that part.

If he hung the jersey not on the metal sprinkler head but on the bit of wax holding the plug in that would definitely do it. Those things just have a little wax or plastic piece or something that melts at certain temp, releasing a plug and allowing the water that’s been festering in the pipe for years to come out.

Most people here probably know this but it’s not like the movies where they all turn on at the same time. That’s not even possible. They all have color coded slugs designed to melt and release the plug at a given temp. Ones in kitchen are normally higher temp than bedroom heads, etc.

Man, that goes on for an embarrassingly long time. I wonder if his thought process was, "Well, I know this is too big to fit through this window, but they're all laughing at me in there, so I can't just walk away from this without getting something."

I don't get why they don't start swinging at the guys arm with *something*. Bound to be a hammer or a broom or something they can use to discourage the guy. poo poo, pour hot coffee on him. That'd be funny.

This woman has the most severe resting bitch face I've seen in a hot minute. Also, she has the smug look of an entitled rear end in a top hat. These ideas are solidified by her reaction to the water - instead of laughing it off and whatever, you can clearly tell what she's saying by reading her lips, and boy is she upset.

Get over yourself. Laugh it off. Stop being so uptight.

Why can't creepy weirdos go back to falling in love with strippers instead of Twitch streamers? I at least understand falling in love with strippers because they put their naked boobies in your face.

That was my first thought, it seems exactly like my buddy who's always giving his money away to strippers and then hurt when it turns out they don't actually love him and maybe, just maybe, the nice things they were saying to him was because he was shoving hundred dollar bills in their panties.

That guy’s just showboating after the goal, right?

I’m not missing any sort of special metric football rule like he can’t pick it up with his hands after the goal because that invalidates the goal, or the kickoff will have to be 10 meters closer to his team’s goal (or whatever the number is), am I?

No, a lot of times you see a guy kick it back into the net for extra emphasis or something, but AFAIK there's no reason for it, it's just the soccer equivalent of spiking the football.
