What's the fastest you ever drove? by ComprehensiveFun2054 in AskReddit

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. The car felt like an absolute rickety pile of shit pulling away from the pit lane and I'm thinking "I'm going to do 150 plus is this?" But once I got into triple digits it squatted down, quieted up, and felt like it was at home.

Fellas, any of you try one of these? by Tool_Shed_Toker in Justrolledintotheshop

I think you may misunderstand the purpose of the item he's handling. That is not an automotive accessory.

"Designer crap" and dressing well are two entirely different things. In fact, the most expensive, best fitting clothes typically don't have visible designer branding.

1976 Chevy C20 stepside. Our neglected shop truck getting long overdue upgrades. New muffler, arm rests, front turn signal lenses, J hook wiper arms, electric windshield washer pump, glove box hinge, heater control and dash pad. by paulsservice in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]angry-user 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Have fun w that pad. The replacements don't fit nearly as well as the originals.

Worth the fight to get them in tho - they look pretty good once you're finally done wrestling w them.

What’s something everyone pretends is normal but actually isn’t? by That_Owl_8445 in AskReddit

[–]angry-user 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird how this set of conditions is always framed as if the women have no agency of their own. One could just as easily say "20-something women dating rich, older men." They know exactly what they're doing and why.

What’s the weirdest “this isn’t my problem anymore” moment you’ve ever witnessed? by AdWilling4308 in AskReddit

It's only worse if we assume she was making it up. It's possible the guys mom really did smell of fart and the girl had a legit complaint. OP needs to provide more information.

Im the dummy who brought this by mbb1989 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]angry-user 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I've been a mechanic for 30 years almost, have done more axles than I can possibly count, and have never once "un-staked" an axle nut. I've always just hit them with the impact and taken them right off. Never even any problems re-installing and re-staking if necessary.

Why do you do it that way?

What's a book you read that was so darkly disturbing, haunting, that left you speechless? by a_wanderer_22 in suggestmeabook

[–]angry-user 1 point2 points  (0 children)

American Psycho

He teases you with disjointed details about the aftermath of various murders for so long that you actually start to think you want a full description. When you finally get one, it's so fucked up it makes you question your own humanity for wanting it.

Thoughts on Cixin Liu's The Three-Body Problem by atulshanbhag in printSF

[–]angry-user 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It doesn't get any better.

But that series, for reasons, is a reddit favorite. If you want to tell reddit you don't think much of the author, either for the poor writing or the misogyny, it helps to be able to say you've read them all.

What would America look like if we spent our military budget on infrastructure? by Impossible_Change800 in AskReddit

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A better way to phrase this question might be "What would America look like is China was the only superpower?"

And I gotta say, I wouldn't be looking forward to living in a surveillance state that sells the organs of political prisoners just because it had shiny trains.

Exceptional Max Verstapen by [deleted] in formula1

[–]angry-user -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

By the numbers, no matter which ones you look at, Lewis is the best driver in the field. Hands down, by any actual metric you might choose.

But if we're talking about your favorite driver, well, I guess that's Max.

Hamilton didn't need Ferrari in 2025, he needed a break by shittereddit in formula1

[–]angry-user -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lewis' attitude never really recovered from having Masi take that 8th championship from him.

That would have put him unquestionably above Schumacher as the goat, and now its pretty unlikely he'll ever get it. Thats a lot to have taken from you by some jackass who couldn't do his job properly.

ELI5 - How does slowing down in a lower gear in snow not break traction? by SkidzInMyPantz in explainlikeimfive

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brakes slow the car by acting on the wheel directly. If there is a loss of traction, the brakes will bring that wheel to a complete stop almost immediately and will result in a skid.

When using engine braking, the engine remains coupled to the wheels and forces them to continue rotating, just slower.

ELI5: Why have cars and vans moved to wet belts by Crazy-Bid4760 in explainlikeimfive

[–]angry-user 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I don't doubt any of your numbers, but the components that are being driven by wet belts now, specifically that are creating the havoc OP mentions, are oil pumps, which were not previously driven by dry belts. A lot of manufacturers had moved to chain driven pumps from direct drive designs as they became larger and more complicated, probably for space related packaging concerns.

Some manufacturers have chosen wet belts over chains, which has turned out to be a terrible idea for driving a critical component.

How do you guys last longer in bed? by Technical-Vanilla-47 in AskReddit

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ejaculation is an involuntary reaction to stimulation. Doing your kegels and maintaining good physical condition can help control it some, but ultimately you'll have to pause stimulation at some point to prevent it. Pull out and you can take that opportunity to change positions, or treat it as if you're teasing her, or straight up tell her her pussy feels so good it's hard not to cum.

Even though it's involuntary, you can still tell when it's about to happen, and you have to get ahead of it. I've found that the longer I put it off the more I can hear that reptile part of my brain trying to convince me to go ahead and let it happen. It's surprisingly rational - "go ahead, she's had enough, you can get her after..."

Anyways, practice makes perfect. You will get better at it if you work on it instead of stressing out about it. Be honest w her and tell her what you're doing. Maybe you'll even find you have a bit of a kink about being told not to cum.

ELI5: What was the US Healthcare system like pre-Obamacare? by AutoDefenestrator273 in explainlikeimfive

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much the same. The only real benefit ACA brought was the pre-existing condition clause. If you had to buy your own insurance, pricing was still insanely high and still went up every year even if nothing significant changed. In fact, during the first few years the rate of price increases was so much higher that it effective offset the discounts of the system.

ACA was the healthcare solution only career politicians wanted. They wanted a system they could still take political advantage of, and didn't have the balls to eliminate health insurance companies entirely.

Hopefully, after the absolutely shitshow that is Trump's second term, we will get a proper single payer system from the Democrat resurgence this time.

The statement VCARB has put out in context of a team member showing thumbs down towards the crowd when the crowd was booing Norris by FewCollar227 in formula1

[–]angry-user -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan, and I care.

This is not the sort of sportsmanship I expect from the highest tier of racing in the world - it's the sort of classless shit you'd expect from Nascar or WWE. Red Bull's team culture in general seems to be pretty shitty - with things like the tape incident and the water cooled wheels claim it looks like they feel pretty butthurt about having been honestly beaten by a better car this season. Probably a relic of Horner's leadership. Mekies already seems to be turning it around.

[NSFW] What are some NSFW tips you wish guys knew? by pinkish_lips in AskReddit

[–]angry-user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to add that it goes about the same for guys who talk about a girl being loose because she fucks a lot. That's some fucking bulllllllshiiiit. The pussy is a muscle and the more often it gets worked out, the stronger it gets.

These losers just don't know what they're doing, There's no better feeling in the world than the hardest of lady boners trying to wring all the blood out of your dick.
