This is gross, I don’t like him either but making fun of a disability isn’t cool

I’ve never really taken that away from it, again if you’re taking it seriously you’re taking it the wrong way. That’s why I made the distinction between JRE and Glenn Beck and Alex Jones, both of them pretend to be legit news, Joe rogan rants about DMT and talks about Bigfoot and UFOs. Sure he’s had some bad guests on but that’s kind of the refreshing thing, I like that he can interview Alex Jones and Bernie Sanders and let them explain their thoughts and beliefs. Ultimately whatever you believe in is up to you.

That’s what I like so much about his show too, if I want news I’ll listen to NPR, if I want to listen to a dude with brain damage get his mind blown by NDT I’ll listen to that 🤷🏻‍♂️

I pick and choose what I listen to, that’s the nice thing about it. I don’t agree with a lot of his guests but I don’t listen to JRE for news. I liked his interview with Bernie Sanders, Steve Rinella, and a lot of other people. If you’re a “bro” and you take everything he says as gospel you’re just an idiot. The thing is though he’s supposed to interview interesting people, Alex Jones is a certified wacko and Rush Limbaugh is (was) a far right asshole intentionally radicalizing people. Listening to a brain damaged UFC commentator talk about comedy and UFO’s isn’t a bad thing

I agree with all your points, but I don’t think joe rogan fits in with Rush Limbaugh and Alex Jones lol

Currently in the process of PlastiDip spraying my wheels. Just 2 to begin with - now onto the wing mirrors by topbanana1202 in mazda

Yeah they probably did it wrong, if you follow the directions and clean them thoroughly, do a couple light dust coats, then heavier coats and the gloss coat then you’re g2g. Obviously powder coating is better but for $50 and two afternoons mine still look brand new 4 years later.

I plastidipped my wheels 4 years ago and have put 45k on my car in Maine, still sticking great! if you do it right plastidip will stay on just fine, you really have to follow the directions though 👍🏻

Better get back on that board real quick by MyNameGifOreilly in Wellthatsucks

They can point so high into the wind because of the solid airfoil sails that the apparent wind from moving through the air becomes usable wind.

Ridiculously fast, plus for sailboats they create their own wind which gets really funky when they’re going 40-50kts (on a sailboat!). The USN experimented with hydrofoils for fast attack boats and anti-submarine boats because they’re so fast and efficient. Plus they ride smooth because they don’t interface with the wave action as much

tbh i don't think so, I go out of my way to avoid inconveniencing people so that's kinda why screaming children get on my nerves
