Scorn
Looks like that guy's skin hasn't fully grown over. That's like a -5 resistance to lemon-juice based attacks.

Love the bowl of lemons that they turn into lemonade.
Why You Literally Can't Overcook Mushrooms
I think I just found my wife her magic food.
You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. mushroom-kabobs, mushroom creole, mushroom gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple mushroom, lemon mushroom, coconut mushroom, pepper mushroom , mushroom soup, mushroom stew, mushroom salad, mushroom and potatoes, mushroom burger, mushroom sandwich. That- that's about it.
Two Veterans Debate Trump and his beliefs. Wowser.
my favorite part is when Lemon literally says, "Are you certain of the words you just said?"
Here's a hint you probably royally screwed up - if the moderator in a debate asks if you purposefully meant what you just said, you probably just sat on your own balls.

The Most Costly Joke in History
LOL I can't be a pig and Sarah Palin at the same time. Make up your mind
Those are all valid criticisms, but nobody apart from the flight engineers and test pilots truly know whether this plane is a lemon or not. If it does everything it's supposed to do, then it's exactly what the military asked for, just 10 years too late....
Any suitability and fit for purpose criticism that anyone has ever come up with for the F-35 also applies to just about any piece of military equipment that has been created in the last 70 years. Engineering is a balancing act, and an iterative process. Almost every aircraft, and vehicle in the military today was built to fight a soviet army. Luckily that never happened. But that means that most aircraft and vehicles in the military today have been grossly modified to make them fit for a different purpose. The F-35 will probably go through this as well over the next 30 years, because it's a normal part of the life-cycle of military equipment. Almost every plane dropping bombs now was previously designed as a fighter. But nobody ever calls them out for being mutants like they do with the F-35, they call it additional capability. The F-35 was born with these capabilities instead of being added over time.
Expensive: I'll agree. Could the money have been spent better else where? Definitely. You could argue that the cost is tiny compared to that of a full scale war, maybe F-35 is a good deterrent. Air superiority is the key to winning a war. If you're going to spend money then that's where it should be spent. When the oceans rise enough, is a country like Indonesia going to lash out and try to take land and resources for their civilians? Maybe. I doubt all 200 million of them will just stand there and starve. (Ok I'll concede, this does make me sound a bit like Palin. But hopefully not as dumb )
They could have probably made 3 different stealth planes for 1/2 the cost, but that has it's own strategic downsides. You have to have the right assets in the right places or you have to spread them quite thinly. With a multi-role plane you have all of the capabilities everywhere. Just a matter of a loading it with different weapons.
Not needed: Time will tell whether this is the right plane, but new planes are needed. And they absolutely must have stealth. Within 10 years, weapon systems will be so advanced that if you are spotted, you're as good as dead. We are currently dropping bombs on fairly unsophisticated enemies, but wars tend to escalate quickly. You just never know either way, and it's better to be prepared for the worst. There are plenty of countries with very good planes and pilots that could get sucked into a conflict. If you're really unlucky you could be fighting US made planes with pilots trained in the same way, and you don't want to be fighting a fair fight.
Further still, Russia, China and Japan are developing their own stealth planes, which pretty much forces everyone else to do the same thing.
Especially if Donald Trump gets elected. You never know who that crazy asshole is going to provoke into a war
Doesn't work: It's still in development and testing.
Overtasked: It does the same stuff the aging multi-role planes (that were originally built as fighters) do. With the addition of stealth, and better weapons/sensors/comms. Small performance variables don't win wars, superior tactics and situational awareness does.
Underpowered: Almost every plane ever built has had it's engines upgraded to give it more thrust through it's life. And engines on planes are almost a disposable item, they're constantly being replaced throughout the life-cycle of the plane. Like a formula one car.
The current engine, is already the most powerful engine ever in a jet fighter. It is good enough to fly super sonic without an afterburner, which none of the planes it's replacing are capable of.
Piloted: Agreed. But who knows, maybe a Boston Dynamics robot will be flying it soon
Test Failing: That's only a good thing. You want things to fail during tests, and not in the real world. Testing and finding flaws is a normal part of developing anything.
Fragile: That can be said for all US aircraft. They all need to have the runway checked for FOD, because one little rock can destroy even the best plane. Russian aircraft on the other hand are designed to be rugged though, because they're runways are in terrible condition. But in reality, all sophisticated equipment needs constant maintenance, especially when even a simple failure at 40,000 feet becomes an emergency.
Quickly Obsolete: Time will tell. Perhaps it would have been better to keep upgrading current planes with more technology like plasma stealth gas that make then partially stealthy, better sensors and more computing power. But by the time you've done that you've got a plane that's as heavy as F-35 anyway, and not as capable. Although it might have been cheaper in the long run.
Like I said in my previous comment. All of this doesn't make an interesting story so you'll only ever hear the two extremes which are "the plane sux" vs "it's invicible!!11" depending on your media source.
Wait....Sarah? Sarah Palin? Is that you? ;-)
You mean what's wrong besides the dozen or so meaningful complaints made above, any one of which was a good reason to kill the project years ago, like; too expensive, not needed, doesn't work, over tasked, under powered, piloted, did I say too expensive, test failing, fragile, quickly obsolete, WAY too expensive, ....need I go on?
How to make a fire with a lemon
But there's no insulator between the cells. Why wouldn't the electricity just flow freely between the pins through the interior of the lemon?
I don't think you can increase the voltage of an AA battery by creating extra terminals, which is essentially what he's doing here...
How to make a fire with a lemon
...after all, lemons are SO ubiquitous in Northern climates.

It Was Just A Regular Flight, Until These Old Men Blew Every
It wouldn't be a lemon party without old Dick!
How To Crack An Electronic Safe With A Magnet And A Sock
There was an entertaining comment along those lines in a recent Jalopnik article, tell us about the worst car you ever owned, user bandi53 talking about a 1987 Volkswagen Fox that was a bit of a lemon:
I take the opposite approach. I drive a 46 year old, rusting, dented, beaten up Bronco. It's doors don't even lock. I've never had trouble with people trying to steal from me, it's fairly obvious I have nothing they want!
Miracle Fruit: How to Trick Your Taste Buds
Pineapple on these things is just...wow. Lemon was good too. I thought if you took all the sour out of lemon it wouldn't taste like lemon. I was wrong.
Miracle Fruit: How to Trick Your Taste Buds
i bought a bag a few years ago and they were quite remarkable. For me lemons were sweet, malt vinegar became sweet like balsamic and most striking of all it mellowed guinness out to be a very smooth drink.
Miracle Fruit: How to Trick Your Taste Buds
You can get a weaker version of this effect by eating a slice of lemon (or drinking some lemon juice) and then immediately trying something like broccoli that's not normally sweet. I haven't tried tabasco sauce, so I don't know if it works quite as well on that but lemon and tabasco go fairly well anyway so IMHO not a huge deal
I want to try this. Anyone have these pills that would be willing to mail me one? Amazon sells 10 for about 15.00 which is a bit much just for shits and giggles. By the way do younger people say shits and giggles or is that mainly and older folks thing?
