Re: Commercials We Hate

We get the Canadian version of those drug ads, but Canadian law prohibits the ads from saying what the drug actually does. So the ads are invariably a bunch of people talking about how wonderful Fukyooup is and that you should ask your doctor about Fukyooup. I've googled a few of those to find out ...

Re: Commercials We Hate

I've probably seen this Jardiance commercial over 200 times and it always fills me with rage. :angry:

Re: SCIENCE!

Went over to my parents' house 2 miles away for the eclipse and watched from their backyard. It was cloudy and I was pissed off because I figured there'd be nothing to see. But just in time, the clouds broke slightly and I got a couple pics. I'm satisfied. The first pic also shows my Dad's radio an...

Re: Am I a Hobo?

Found this in a parking lot a few days ago. I needed a case for my spare pair of reading glasses, so I couldn't pass it up.

Re: SCIENCE!

Canadians feel obliged to buy something when they're in the US. It's like proof that you've branched out. Actually, they buy new clothes here, dump their old stuff in the parking lot, and wear the new stuff back across the border so they don't have to pay import duty on it. At least, according to a...

Shit! :angry: Hopefully the sky clears in the next 2 hours. Apparently there are around a million out-o...

Re: What is your ideal alternative history Clash?

They split up after releasing the debut album. We all get jobs at the BBC. A job making tea at the BBC? Beats being a cop I guess. :meh: I would be content opening letter-bombs for yew. Well, I do have an opening for a ticket inspector, if you're interested. It...uh... doesn't pay very well ... :sh...

Re: I can't stand the blues

I might have mentioned it before, but Milwaukee has an interesting connection to pre-war blues. There is a town called Grafton, which is at the top of Milwaukee County. Grafton was the home of the Wisconsin Chair Company. They made furniture, including phonograph cabinets, and decided cheaply produ...

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread

I saw a video on youtube maybe 7 or 8 years ago that showed a guy who swam into the Niagara River a few miles away from me. His buddy had gone into the swirling currents to grab a piece of driftwood - they made furniture out of driftwood. I might have done the same thing myself. Anyway, the first gu...
