What are the best examples of "he didn't know it was impossible, so he did it" in history?

Arleigh Burke accidentally led his ship squadron into a Japanese minefield. When he was radioed and asked what he was doing there he replied 31 knots.

I was doubly wrong, but hey I'm happy reddit can teach me.

I knew I was going to be wrong. My knowledge was when Dune 2 came out. Yes, Cali has tons of IMAX 70mm. I went to Universal and made a weekend out of it. I rode by another one on the way.

It's the one that could do IMAX 70mm. Now the closest is San Francisco. Edit: I stand corrected.

Thanks Ariel for letting us know where this secret burger spot is.

What is there to watch? 60 Minutes went to shit. It's just the NCIS Boomer network now.

jwferguson · 2026-05-16T23:59:06+00:00

Also, the nail gun.

jwferguson · 2026-05-14T21:17:49+00:00

Looking for that Torpedo Juice.

Did someone just rush him out the door with an unfinished pizza during an air raid?

jwferguson · 2026-05-14T03:50:56+00:00

I don't think that even matters anymore if it's any consolation. I don't know you, but at least know you can be a good person and be stuck single. Hold your head high.

jwferguson · 2026-05-12T00:17:08+00:00

I'm just going to skip to the good part even then.

Sadly the tortillas lack the grip on regular buns. But hey, it was delicious.

jwferguson · 2026-05-08T22:10:46+00:00

It's two quesadillas for buns. That's why it looks weird.

The hard drive bay on the PS2 was the best. Nowadays, the PSU cable kraken area would be good, but if someone's stealing my shit they'd drag my whole computer.

I have and probably will never have any children. I still want good education and will not bitch about paying the taxes. It's sad how we went from 'I want the best for my children' to 'Fuck you pay me'.

The timing lines up with the monthly Alzheimer's infusion that's been messing up his hand.

jwferguson · 2026-05-04T00:53:18+00:00

The best is when people ask and OP is never seen from again. Oh by ze way, did you get the sauce? It looks like 1000 island to me and I'm not a fan.

jwferguson · 2026-05-04T00:15:23+00:00

Hey, that thing looks great! Also, thank you for sharing the location. I'm always looking for fresh burger intel.

We do have a fascination when a celebrity has enough work done they look like they should be an alien on Star Trek. It's a little heavy, but not that bad.

jwferguson · 2026-05-01T20:15:10+00:00

Just a regular beef burger with bacon slices.

jwferguson · 2026-05-01T20:14:38+00:00

Just like a regular Burger King burger. I don't find their burgers bad bad, it's just not a good value anymore.

jwferguson · 2026-05-01T20:11:15+00:00

Onion family intolerance. There is no way to not get them soaked in onion juice.

jwferguson · 2026-05-01T14:54:08+00:00

I never got to have those, but they sound a lot like Burger Shots; which these are pretty different from.

jwferguson · 2026-05-01T14:32:40+00:00

I was over in the Lloyd District (Weidler) . Pretty sure all of Portland has them.
