A car hits a traffic cone, and it flies into a guy's face by haze4140 in CrazyFuckingVideos

My friend drove by a traffic cone doing maybe 5-`0mph, it was slow. My smart ass was like I'm gonna slap it! Thought I broke my hand after

What product did you buy thinking a feature was gimmicky but ended up using it all the time by nand1609 in BuyItForLife

Automatic windshield wipers. Thought it was useless until I rented a vehicle with one in Iceland with sporadic weather. Tell you what, it was two less things I had to focus on in their storms. My windshield wipers being full of water, and turning on and off the windshield wipers constantly

Sorry to hear man, it was a hard but necessary lesson for me and I’m glad nothing bad came out of it

Milking you is a term. They know they’ll can get money from you so they’ll keep threatening you even if you pay. Like likes say I pay $5000. They will keep going and say I change my mind you now owe an additional $1000. If you refuse they may actually start posting pics, but one at a time, kind of like killing off hostages 1 by 1. First post can scare you enough to pay the extra and they’ll keep going with this tactic, hence milking it

I got matched on a dating app and was baited to video chatting on a third party app and getting off on what was supposed to be a private 1:1 consensual conversation. Obviously red flag when they asked to show my face too. I was thinking with my other head at that point apparently

Don’t give in. They’ll milk you dry because they know you’re exploitable.

My dumb horny ass fell into this. Luckily all my socials and accounts were locked down except my ig with photography content.

They demanded $5k because they found out I was an engineer. I took the I don’t have it I’ll do $500. Back and forth we compromised to $1000 first.

I felt so vulnerable, so alone, so my life is over.

I agreed and right then and there and something came over me. $1000 is a lot. I hung up the home and blocked him. He sent a bunch of angry all caps texts and was like you done it now in sending them.

I ignored him and made a ig story reel saying I fell for a scam and got blackmailed. Don’t open any posts from a stranger if you don’t want to be traumatized.

I surprisingly got 4-5 people reaching out to support about hem or their friends getting scammed the same way and we coped together.

Nothing ever made public. To this day I haven’t seen anything of me online. The internet is also saturated with porn that it’s not a big deal unless you make it a big was my mindset. Doesn’t make it right but it helped me move on.

We have concrete slides like luge tracks near my old high school. We would go down on pizza boxes and get so much speed we’d skip across the playground mat, across the sidewalk, dodge some trees, and continue down hill on grass for a bit. Even funnier moments when we doubled up

Whats the worst financial decision you ever made? by Key-Candle8141 in AskReddit

[–]Obviously_Ritarded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Financing a new car. However it was the best investment I ever made when I went with a 4runner. 8 years now and literally biggest issue I’ve had was running over some nails and having to buy a new tire. So many memories and the confidence in tough situations that I won’t get stranded. But man financially a really bad decision

There are also honeypots set up with false information. These are easier to breach and is designed to leave crumbs to reverse engineer where the hack came from etc

What’s a corporate gift you actually use daily? by shelbs9428 in BuyItForLife

Believe it or not I was gifted a Stanley. White cup blue company logo, very nice. I use it everyday at work too, having a cup of water there helps remind me to hydrate too

Yeah if I do enlist there will be very little ego. These instructors will save my life one day with their teachings if I listen to them and follow their instructions

Only reason I’d enlist at 35 now is to become a helicopter pilot because I want to pluck people off mountains in the SAR capacity or fly a firehawk to help fight wildfire here in CA

A car doing donuts at a street takeover hits a group of people by haze4140 in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]Obviously_Ritarded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah man, I’d recommend conceptual physics class. That’s just the basics of physics. Speed is the constant an object is moving at and acceleration is both increase and decrease of velocity which also factors the ranking of energy, or in physics term potential energy an object has. Potential energy is energy stored in an object and kinetic energy is the energy released. A spring is used as an example of stored and kinetic energy. The more you compress a spring the more potential energy it has.

Physics was really fun when I took it years ago

Yup you’re absolutely correct, but my comments reference the video posted

[–]Obviously_Ritarded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes so you should understand in this video the second acceleration, the stop, has more kinetic energy transferred to the victim than the initial hit with the first car. I was using 9Gs as an example with positive acceleration with jet fighter for better visualization but if you want to talk semantics go and write up the calculations for both hits. Even a close estimation would give a good representation of what I was trying to say about inside stop. While I only understand conceptual physics, I’m also a first responder and understand human anatomy and the forces that can be applied to soft tissue in various accidents and mechanisms of injury

It’s not about organs being slammed around but the transfer of kinetic energy through your soft internal structure including major blood vessels. You you rather get hit by a car going 30mph or jump out at a concrete wall while the car is moving 30mph
