I read an article saying one type of the pagers that blew up was an Apollo AP-900, which uses triple A alkaline batteries, so there's no way a battery overload could have caused that.

The door parked itself, I parked the rest of it.

I've owned a car like that. Drove that thing for years until the driver's side door fell off and I parked it.

Reading that I had to check my area, and it's a whopping 1518 people in 205.11 square miles or about 7 people per square mile. You got us beat by a long shot.

Elvis.

A crappy porn site I think.

No, sorry they've all kicked the bucket...David Bowie and Prince died in 2016, and Kenny Rogers died in 2020.

Edit: Oh, now I get it.

Yup, I just knew I was going to regret asking...

I have a feeling I'm going to regret asking, but what kind of "incident"?

I don't know if my energy levels had anything to do with adhd or if it was just a unrelated companion, but I've always been that way. Sugar was banned in my house I think because my mother thought I'd implode if I got my mitts on any. I couldn't even sit long enough to watch a whole movie from start to finish until I was in my 30's.

Sitting still and not being bored senseless. I was a hyperactive kid with adhd, having to sit anywhere for more than 10 minutes was the bane of my existence.

Ya unfortunately I went the same school as her and it's my area (Portage-lisgar) that kept voting her in for some reason, despite her having the IQ of a wet sock.

Oh ya, it's fine.... It took a while to get used to having slightly shorter fingers, and it feels weird as hell when you bump things with them without the normal fingertip padding (Now it's just skin and bone hitting things) but I'm used to it.

By sticking them where they didn't belong... kind of hard to explain but I was working on a friend's lawn mower and lost my balance, I tried to push against the mower to hold myself up but my hand slipped, kind of bounced off the ground and the mower blade managed to catch them.

It didn't really hurt but I was more mad at myself for it happening. I brought the fingertips to the hospital but they were kinda smooshed, and they had to take a bit more bone out of my fingers so that they'd have enough skin to close it up.

Kidney stones. I've had the tips of two fingers on my left hand chopped off, and even that didn't come close to the feeling of a kidney stone rattling down the pipework.

I have Medullary sponge kidney, which in short makes my kidneys a stone factory. It's a love/hate relationship at this point. On the plus side, I've found drinking at least 2 liters of lemonade every day has done wonders to stop my kidneys from feeling like they're trying to kill me all the time.

We know. One of our conservative MP's even ran around with a MAGA hat at one point.

Or like the warning on my corded electric shaver- "Do not use underwater."

Makes me sad that I can't shave in my tub while I'm making my morning toast.

He's a master of disguise

But the vast majority of the shell fire is not as a result of the battle which raged around St Malo for nearly two weeks. After the battle, the Americans brought up various tanks and other anti-tank weapons into range and fired at them to see how much punishment they would take. It is incredible to see that virtually all the hits show shells bouncing off or merely embedding themselves into the armoured steel without penetrating it. I found only one shell hole which had penetrated the cupola straight through, whilst one other shell appears to have found a way in at the point where the moveable gun port shield slots into the turret.

Wouldn't your drinks be warmer if kept in there?

Next week he's gonna be in a star spangled cape singing Elvis tunes in front of a cgi audience.

As soon as they think there's money in it.

Maybe I'm old but back in my day they used to just call that "trying to dig up dirt on someone."

Well... somethings gonna get wet.

I envy those that can just fall asleep whenever they want. It usually takes me an hour or more of laying there to finally bore myself enough to pass out.

I believe it was Denuvo that was the issue. The cracked version with denuvo stripped from it worked without a hiccup and ran smooth.

That's far Cry 6 for me. Bought it off the epic site when it first came out and it didn't work because of the drm. (Needed sse 4.3? which my old assed pc doesn't have.)

Downloaded a cracked torrent, worked like a charm.

He's basically a workplace Wile E. Coyote in stick man form.

The mediabiasfactchecker bot has commented in the thread so if you can't see it, then i guess yup it blocked you.

at 50, everyone has the face he deserves.

Welp, I'm screwed.

You forgot Lie, Cheat, and Steal.

Thanks, It's all pretty frazzled there due to the extra long day I had but it grows pretty fast and doesn't usually listen to me at the best of times lol... If I remember correctly that was only a week or two of growth since I had last shaved.

Years ago I was working construction on a house and an iron clamp (around 2 or three pounds) under tension with a chain snapped and flew towards me and hit me in the forehead hard enough it spun me ass over tea kettle off of a scaffold where I belly flopped onto concrete about 6 or 7 feet down. I woke up about ten minutes later with paramedics around me laying in a pool of blood. I was air lifted by helicopter to the city around 80 miles away.

I still have a nice 2 inch scar on my head from where it hit, but thankfully I have a nice thick skull and I didn't get any brian dabblage :)

He'll talk over the fence or simply waltz past it and follow me around

At this point a trebuchet may be in order.

Recent story but not me. A friend of mine just had his car stolen two days ago. He was going to bed around midnight and heard something outside, so he looked out the window just in time to see his vehicle rounding the corner on the street.

He phoned the RCMP who managed to catch the guy a few miles down the road. The thief had ripped the Sirius radio out of the vehicle but otherwise there didn't seem to be any damage. My friend and his mom had picked up the vehicle the next morning and was driving home when they heard a loud "pop" and the vehicle caught fire, burning to the ground. (My guess is when the guy ripped out the radio some wires got damaged and shorted out.)

So now he's scrambling to find a new set of wheels that he can't really afford to do because he needs it to get back and forth from work which is 16 miles one way. He will eventually get some insurance money for the vehicle, but who knows how much, and that probably won't be for a little while. In the meantime he's kind of up the creek without a paddle.

As a Canadian I would love to see a chinese ship getting pelted with a volley of supersonic hockey pucks and maple syrup containers.

To be fair people like the orange turnip and his followers are heavily tipping the scales in that direction all by themselves.

What were they expecting? A dancing musical number with jesus and noah spraying each other with holy water?
