Amy Schumer and Bill Hader had Palpable Chemistry

oblio70 says...

Not having television, and yet naive in terms of "celebrities", all I could think was how I could not find Flint Lockwood in that voice. Color me duped!

Should Americans Return To A Simpler, Stone Age Lifestyle?

oritteropo says...

Would it be nitpicking to point out that stone age people had lots of survival skills that modern folk just plain don't? I think the panelists have understimated the technical skill involved in flint knapping, hunting, and trapping without store bought equipment.

Spider-Woman's Big Ass Is A Big Deal - Maddox

T-Barlow says...

PS: Art cannot discriminate or objectify anyone. People do that. Someone runs over someone with a car, is it the cars fault? Someone gets stabbed, do you ban knives? Someone publishes a sexual fantasy, should we ban all books? Feminists embrace marxism for this reason.

I grew up watching all manner of pornography. Larry Flint is one of my personal heroes. Yet I never once tried to use a woman like some kind of fleshlight. Although I noticed boys all around me without access to pornography poaching school-girls with lies and deceit and then breaking their hearts by never calling them back, or worse, leaving them with child and no support. THAT is what objectifying someone is, if you think TV and comic books is what causes these monkey-men to behave this way, that a little bit of censorship is going to transform them into empathetic intellectuals, I just want to let you know you're in for some disappointment.

Sewing Needle Sparkler

Sewing Needle Sparkler

chingalera says...

Why mommy can't sew!

Here's a pyro-aside this reminded me of:
U will Need:

paperclip
flint
butane lighter

bend paper-clip in such a manner as to hold flint in-place
with lighter, heat flint while holding the end of the paperclip far enough away from finger to avoid heat transfer-(flint will glow and swell twice it's size, at this point...)

Throw glowing flint & paperclip combination at hard surface, concrete, brick wall, etc.

Super explody white-sparkler-action, and really cool sound

There should be a name for this...

Walmart on strike

My_design says...

Not to say that Walmart treats its employees well, but you people are missing something here.
First why should Wal-Mart do anything beyond what is required by law? Minimum wage is minimum wage. The government set that rate and Walmart pays its employees over that wage. They do not have to give insurance to their associates, yet they do. Most states are "At Will" states which means you can be fired for any reason aside from sex, age or race. If you don't like what Walmart offers then there is a McDonald's on almost every corner. Or even a Starbucks.
As for manufacturing, while Walmart is BRUTAL on it's vendors, they also have one of the strictest social compliance programs in the world. They've also instituted a packaging reduction program that looks to reduce packaging waste and increase the amount of recycled material used.
It is not totally the fault of Walmart that everything is made China. They buy from Vendors, vendors moved manufacturing to China in order to be competitive. Everything could have stayed in the USA but with the increasing wages and government policies US manufacturers could not compete(At the same time restrictions on imports from Asia were loosened) Now if you wanted to make a plastic piece in the USA it would cost 4-6 times more than in China, generally speaking. Recently I have found some US manufacturers that can injection mold components at a reasonable cost, but due to the havoc wreaked by everything moving to China I lack the infrastructure to be able to do things like Paint Decoration (Again something so strictly regulated that it would be near impossible to do in the US).
As we continue to see the USD falter against the RMB and as the price of oil continues to increase we may reach a point of balance where manufacturing in the US could come back, but it would most likely be automated and would not result in near the number of jobs it had in the past. Of course at the same time, due to those same changes in Oil prices and the USD against the RMB we'll be seeing some pretty big price increases on product. Hang on to your pocket books everybody it's gonna be a rough ride.
On another note Sam Walton was a total skin flint, but he did it across the board. The guy didn't even get heat in his office until he was near death. Only then it was done because the engineer put it in with out him knowing. They feared him catching a pneumonia. He complained when he found out. No one could drive fancy cars, because if Sam saw them he'd figure he was paying them too much. After he died all kinds of sports cars popped up in the Walmart parking lot.

How a Traditional Axe is Made

Flint and Steel at 5000fps - The Slow Mo Guys

skinnydaddy1 says...

Very cool. When I was a kid. We used to take the flint and spring out of old lighters. Stretch the spring out and then wrap it around the piece of flint. Take another lighter and heat up the flint till it glowed red. Then threw it against a wall or street. The effect was pretty damn cool.

Epic closing argument, typical response.

Biden called out on idiotic rape references

Fletch says...

Well, as much as I like Biden, he's wrong. Crime does increase overall during higher unemployment, but crimes like murder and rape do not because "monetary gain is not usually a motive".

Another article

Biden can't say things that aren't true. Someone will eventually call him on it. Whether he knew it was untrue or was just pulling numbers out of his ass that he thought were close doesn't matter. He's the VP, and if he's gonna reference "numbers", he can be sure people will go look themselves.

To be fair, he was talking specifically about Flint, Michigan. Factcheck.org says he's still wrong.

CEO REALLY Stands Behind His Product

CEO REALLY Stands Behind His Product

MarineGunrock says...

I loved how he was wearing flip flops!>> ^mxxcon:

I'd shoot him for wearing those flipflops.
I'd also shoot the cameraman for aiming it so low that everybody have to bend down to be in the frame.
So if CEO stands behind his products, does that mean Larry Flint have to star in his company's films?



Good luck finding half-jacketed 7.62 x39 rounds.
>> ^dgandhi:

What do you want to bet they used lead rounds instead of mil surp FMJ?
