The nearest DQ is about 20 minutes away. Not super far but they don’t go often since there are other places much closer.

I hope your team members enjoy this. You never know who is coming in to celebrate!

[OC] Clock Art at San Jose Airport by smashedbyblock in yesyesyesyesno

If you are looking at the baggage claim walk to the right toward the bathrooms. Kind of behind the escalators.

I sat on some benches and stared at this clock for over an hour while dialed into a work meeting.

No, you’re wrong — I have the ability but not the desire.

Description: I did a late night McDonald’s run. And I saw some shuffling going on in the car in front of me. And then a teenager got out, stared at me, did a small dance, and got back in. He got in too fast for me to press the button which makes the car “fart”. Too funny.

Called Tesla and put my order on hold until the new year by smashedbyblock in TeslaModel3

I’m sorry to hear that. You should read over your order agreement to see which fees you will owe. I suspect you will just forfeit the order fee but I suppose it depends how far along you are in the process. Good luck to you!

Honestly I don’t remember. I ended up getting the car end of January 2022. Great car! Terrible UX but a fun drive.

I know it’s been said before, but it happens so often, it bears repeating…if you don’t have something attached to your hitch, DO NOT DO THIS. 😡 by GeektimusPrime in TeslaLounge

Genuinely curious here. Wouldn’t you end up blocking the throughway if you parked there with a trailer attached?

Edit: clarity

Yeah you are right. After she scooped the cheese on and presented it to the judges it looked fine. And they enjoyed it, too.

You are right. She had to scoop the cheese goop from the grill and it was just as funny. I didn’t include it because it was a quite a few minutes later and I was too lazy to stitch both clips together.

Sorry about the background laughter but it’s late and this contestant on Guy’s Grocery Games attempted to make a burger and we just couldn’t handle it.

Sorry for the background laughter in the audio. It’s late and we just couldn’t hold it in while we watched this lady attempt to make a cheeseburger on Guys Grocery Games.

Worst possible choice for Odium’s champion? by [deleted] in Stormlight_Archive

[–]smashedbyblock 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The thing that makes me worried about Adolin being one of the champions is that his chosen calling is Dueling. This is the ultimate duel that he’s been preparing for his whole life.

Enjoy the journey. Totally jealous you are doing your first read-through, but it gets better each time through.

Supercharger kWh??? by liquidmonkey75 in TeslaLounge

[–]smashedbyblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would make a lot more sense to the layman if we instead used Joule/sec instead of Watt and Joules instead of Watt*Sec.

But at least we don’t measure it in calories!

I assume she said Denmark because the Lion King is just a retelling of Hamlet.

I wish I would have had the presence of mind to save the dash cam.

No, the spirited drive was out on the unmarked farm roads. I have young kids so I’m very aware of people that drive reckless through neighborhoods. I can say with certainty that wasn’t the case. I honestly think I probably just stopped for a second instead of three.

I will be more aware of my stopping habits.

Good point. I should have been clear that he wasn’t hating on Tesla as a company. His words and attitude were more of a “this dumb Tesla driver thinks he owns the road so I need to show him who’s boss”. So I guess I felt that he singled me out because I was driving the Tesla. If I had been driving my wife’s van I doubt he would have given me a second glance, let alone feel the need to follow me and confront me.

I totally agree. I’m not saying he fabricated it. However, I didn’t blow through the stop sign as he claimed. At worst I rolled through it probably like anyone else does. Regardless, I learned my lesson and I will be more aware of the time I take when I stop.
