Is it a Tent or a Hammock? It's both.

spawnflagger says...

this is a great idea. Although $750 usd is a bit much to ask for nylon and polyester 3-person tent. http://www.tentsile.com/ I guess I wouldn't really trust a cheap knock-off though, if suspended many feet in the air while sleeping.

I wonder how many of their 1st-year testers tried to poop out the ladder door?

Ricochet bullet to the head, dude's OK

Black Range Rover Runs Over Bikers in NYC

Chairman_woo says...

So just to throw it straight out there; I'm a massive biker (though mostly solo so I can't really relate to the gang mindset here). You have no idea what this whole debacle does to my priorities!

So on the one hand provoking the man in the big metal cage (no matter how good the perceived reason) is basically never a good idea if your on a bike. And moreover beating someone to within an inch of his life and cutting him up is very very rarely a good or condonable solution to anything, even if he did just run over a couple of your buddies....

On the other hand......well (and this might only really find any sympathy from fellow motor-bicycleists)..........I can fill in some of the gaps that might explain why one biker felt the need to brake hard in front of him etc. from my own experiences.

Some (very few) drivers go out of their way to fuck with you sometimes over little shit, they get a big head tucked away safely inside their big metal cages and they take it upon themselves to cause you grief in some way or another.
On a regular basis for instance I have car drivers deliverately pull their cars out to try and stop me filtering (lane splitting) despite the fact that A. its totally legal and featured on my fucking licence test! and B. It actually speeds their miserable existence in the traffic flow up as we don't have to take up a car's space (and were fucking gone before most cars are even in gear when the lights change anyway)!

Fortunately I have the perfect solution to this problem, I ride a cheapish looking bike and don't show any signs of stopping for them as they veer over deliberately into my path! You'd be amazed how often they just back off :-D (if not I'm only ever doing 5-10mph so stopping is always an option for that odd psycho)

Not saying I remotely condone the bikers responses, but I do understand how this thing probably escalated. I suspect the bikers had a legit frustration but clearly they dealt with it very poorly. The biker side of the story seems to be that this guy had been deliberately blocking lanes and exchanging insults for a while leading up to when the braking biker escalated things,a situation I've witnessed myself before. Normally prudence makes you leave it alone and back off/accelerate away (or if they are being an extra special twatbag knock off a mirror and accelerate into the distance :-D (never actually done that, but it's seriously crossed my mind a couple of times, Kevlar knuckles are the shit!)). In this case the extra courage that only a 1000 or so fellow kinsmen stood at your side can bring had the usual effect..........Mobs will be the death of us all.

@newtboy is right though, bikers totally killed their own case reacting so aggressively. If they'd followed at a reasonable distance and waited for police to show up things would probably have gone completely the other way legally. Sure the dude that brakes in front of him might get charged but it'd be nothing on attempted vehicular murder/manslaughter running over a handful of bikers. Chasing down and then beating a man half to death in front of his family unfortunately rather overshadows your defence.


Sadly the only sensible conclusion I seem to be able to find is this was ultimately douche nozzles with no self control baiting other douche nozzles with no self control. But I do get it. I also totally get the drivers response once it escalated, I'd have shit bricks and maybe made a run for it through them by that stage too!

I really really really wish I could hear what was actually said between them oh well, back to the fence I go!


EDIT: I just wanted to come back and make it absolutely clear that I also acknowledge that bikes in groups (especially sports bikes and supermoto's as featured here) are just as capable of acting like power drunk fucknuts too. It's entirely possible the bikers started it a way's back and the driver was essentially an innocent man driven to extreme lengths by fear (though I'm still going with straight up hot douche on douche action for now)

Cactus Bodyslamming: Acupuncture for Idiots

AeroMechanical says...

Based upon the experience I had once of bumping into a table and then absentmindedly attempting to catch a very small potted cactus I had knocked off, I will not be watching this video. I just thought you should know that. Particularly the creators: it wasn't worth making. Hope you're proud of yourselves.

Ex-Cop At Large Amidst Vengeful Killing Spree

chingalera says...

This is scarier than just some crazy vendetta cop-This guy has had all manner of special training in tactics, scenario, etc. as a Lt. M.P. in the Navy-He's a marksman, both handgun and rifle with handgun expert classification. He's had a few years to plan this, and he's got the cops in a few states, scared shit less. Almost as scary as a Glock-knock-off made in Beijing!

The Morning After - Featuring Jenna Marbles

albrite30 says...

When Nickelback first came out in the 1998.s, the start of that joke took off then. NOT NOW. The reason for the scorn back then was that every band sounded just like a knock off of Pearl Jam. And I know that they don't sound exactly like them. A lot of rock bands in the early 2000's just were similar enough to each other as "bad" Pearl Jam that they were all subjected to ridicule. Nickelback has just borne more of the brunt than most because they survived.

BoneRemake said:

If I read correctly "online" ( who knows the source)

The nickel back thing comes from them apparently SUCKING because they sound like every other band.

Which is complete and utter bullshit because ...

*enters way back machine*

When nickel back came out in the nineties, they had an original sound and rocketed up the charts because of it (still do for the most part) and in 2000/2001/2002 etc. bands like puddle of mud and ahhh.. I forget the name and the other one, all sounded like NICKLE BACK. I mean what are people comparing them too ? bands from the early nineties ? and this is a joke for 2011 as if that is a relevant premise for the joke... NO if you are to use that argument " they sound like every other band " You are either stupid, too young to know your shit, or just ignorant. because all the bands that " young" retarded 20 year olds think nickle back sound like, they sound like nickle back. so fuck . FUCK YOU STUPID young fuckers.

/end rant

Its been building up. I am not even going to read it in true RANT fashion, just let it all go.

But... haven't I seen only two vids on the front page in the last four days?

Maybe somebody killed a promoted vid and that was why a space opened up?

I haven't been promoting because I didn't want to knock anybody off. I hadn't realized promoted vids stayed forever UNTIL they got knocked off.

I shall return to promoting, after making sure that they have had a "fair" turn as a featured vid.

@pumkinandstorm ... come see this conversation. We can promote again! Carefully....

dag said:

Quote hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Oh right. So the most recent promote goes on the left-hand side, and it pushes off the oldest one to the right.

We're going to have a big discussion on how promotes generally work soon. I know it's an area of contention.

Cat and Dog Fight for Couch Supremacy

Quboid says...

Despite a clear weight category mismatch, the feather weight really used his agility to his advantage. We don't see if there's a knock-off but if it was decided on points, kitty gets the belt.

Conan O'Brien reviews "Minecraft"

Porksandwich says...

Fired up Minecraft last week after a long break. They've added a bunch of stuff to it. Jungle biomes, teleporting NPCs.

But the worst by far are still the hissers, I swear they spawn behind me. Frustrating as hell.

Although I did get knocked off a very high cliff by a skeleton and lost a bunch of my diamond stuff. I am not sure why dropped items by player death disappear faster than the rocks you mine and leave on the floor. Can come back hours later and pick up 100+ blocks. But the 10 minutes it took me to to find where I died and how to get back to it cost me a significant portion of my stuff.


I find it far too boring to play without the monsters though.

Why Never to Make a 20 Pound Smoke Bomb

ulysses1904 says...

On the subject of stupid kids and fire, we were hanging out in the family room when I was a teen and I noticed the end of my lit cigarette got knocked off. I ignored it like a stoned idiot and we came back in the family room later to find the couch cushions smoldering. We dumped water on them and then my mom came home and smacked the crap outta us and made us put the cushions outside. Good thing she did, we woke up to find nothing but springs and wire outside instead of cushions.
