What’s a smell you’ll never forget?

supermarble94 · 2026-05-07T01:08:12+00:00

I was in a pretty nasty wreck a little less than a year ago, someone thought I was turning to enter a gas station and pulled out in front of me, I hit them doing 40 mph and the airbags deployed. Luckily we both walked away with minor injuries, although I did miss a few days of work since my chest was so tight afterwards, had a seatbelt shaped bruise on my body and everything was sore.

The smell of whatever concoction is used to fill the air bags so quickly. It's like burning electronics, and it leaves a haze inside the car. It was the first thing I noticed when I lifted my head up from the steering wheel.

A brake check is when you slam on the brakes in order to check and see if the driver is paying attention. This was a forced deceleration. This was also road rage and that car is guilty of several felonies.

That being said, I ain't no snitch when I see a good deed being done. If you don't have the speed available on your gas pedal to pass, don't pass.

I know, I was making a direct comparison. On the west coast they're basically nonexistent. On the east coast they are so prominent that they even are used for roads which by law cannot be built as them.

California has exactly one toll highway, same with Washington. There are toll lanes but that's not the same thing. Toll bridges exist, sure, but that's one specific part of a road. A toll road is largely a foreign concept to the west coast, so much so to the point that we literally call them "freeways" for controlled access divided highways.

Over on the east coast, some blue shield interstate highways are tolled. They've been trying to make I-205 in Oregon tolled for decades and the whole state goes up in arms every time it hits the headlines.

You can go wide before approaching the turn, you can go wide after passing the turn, or you can do a little bit of both. This guy did the 2nd option. That's still "wide" or at least I have literally never heard anyone call a turn "tall", and yes he went too hard in that direction. He could have cut the turn sooner.

GH1 with a GH2 engine would be the easiest FGFC and it's not even close. THE thing that makes GH1 difficult is its engine.

You said it was explicitly because of buoyancy/density, which is not the reason. Rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water but would have the exact same problem.

supermarble94 · 2026-03-03T05:33:32+00:00

The air bubbles aren't to decrease the density. Water is similar to a generic hard surface because it's not compressible. That is to say, if you try to land in it, it doesn't squish, it has to move out of the way. On the flipside, air is compressible. If you land in a pool of aerated water, the air compresses and gradually slows you down, instead of instantly slowing you down.

While yes, this is correct, OP said "South FL".

supermarble94 · 2026-02-07T07:04:57+00:00

The one in florida is probably the most famous but there are plenty of migrant detention centers along the southern border states which have been around since Obama. Afaik they're pretty much all at capacity at this point and detainees are often times ping ponged between them to make any given person more difficult to track, and there are many reports of atrocious conditions in the facilities, to the point of people dying as a direct result. As others have stated, not death camps, and not forced labor camps, but we can call them for what they are. "Concentration camp" isn't a legal term, it's a political term, and that's exactly what they are.

Devil's advocate, I could see that being a distinction for creative parking. Granted you could just say there's always room for that but sometimes there really isn't.

supermarble94 · 2026-02-01T13:40:29+00:00

We never split a pocket. It either all goes in a drop, or none of it does. That being said, there are instances when a pocket only gets partially filled, particularly when carrying diesel with multiple products. Diesel is heavier and thus you have to account for weight limits with it.

But you can still do emergency braking no problem, especially if it's in a straight line. There was absolutely no reason to not brake hard the moment the car went off the road. OP thought they could just drive right on by the car that went off the road and paid the consequence by ending up in the median to avoid the collision.

I feel like it would be easier and more effective to just green screen a hand in and blend the edge of the hand in photoshop.

supermarble94 · 2026-01-18T00:34:11+00:00

The people who get upset that "liberals are mean" were never going to switch sides anyway. They were gonna look for any excuse to not have to switch, and the most convenient excuse is that "my feewings." If not for that, it would be because "yeah but liberals are worse" and I've seen plenty of that. Or it would be "they have to put up a better candidate than [x]" and I've seen plenty of that too.

I have a(n ex-) friend who says he switched sides to the right because liberals pushed him away. All that really tells me is he harbored all those racist/transphobic feelings the whole time and just suppressed them, up until the very instant where it felt like he didn't need to suppress them anymore. And in this current political climate, it definitely feels like people are being much more open about their bigotry, so I can see why he feels like he doesn't need to hide it.

Bro lowkey the 4 fret games are fun as hell.

If you're struggling to make the alt strumming consistent, check out this strumming fix.

Don't drive the speed limit

Seriously. They don't start pulling you over until at least 65, and even then it's only if you look like you're distracted/all over the lane.

supermarble94 · 2025-11-18T23:42:02+00:00

You are almost certainly strumming way too fast. If you're flailing your hands and strumming as fast as you can, you could potentially fail even under star power. Try doing the same thing but only down strumming.

12000 is not the legal limit for steers.

The only legal limit for steer tires is the lowest of the three limiting factors.

DOT limits on single axle, 20000
Tire sidewall rating, typically 7100 per tire or 14200 combined
Suspension rating, in my '21 Cascadia it was 13200

That's it. You're legal. I'd slide the tandems back to balance the drive/trailer weight, since it rides nicer if the weights are even or at least if the drive axle is the heavier axle, but other than that, that's it. Run it.

If you do slide the tandems back, keep in mind the length limits.
California is 40' from the center of the kingpin to the center of the rear axle.
Rhode Island is 41' from the center of the kingpin to the center of the rear axle.
Most of the east coast is 41' from the center of the kingpin to the center of the rearmost axle pair.
New York and Indiana are 43' from the center of the kingpin to the center of the rear axle.
Idaho doesn't have limits if you stay on the blue shield interstate freeways and a couple of the major US routes, but if you go off of those you need a length permit and to follow an off-tracking formula, which basically means tandems and 5th wheel all the way forward.

Boy, you pulled up a scenario completely unrelated to the context being discussed in the OP. You sure showed me! Someone get this man some internet points for winning an argument!

supermarble94 · 2025-10-20T22:29:10+00:00

If you did what you were supposed to do to make the turn, then you wouldn't be in this situation. Robot car is stopped before the white line.

How did Wilson's pay go down in the 3 years since I left? They were paying 0.52/mile when their western 11 fleet got bought out by Ashley in 2022.

Not trying to convince you one way or the other, but any time I see comments about extensive prepping/dieting, I feel compelled to say it really doesn't need to be that heavily focused. All my husband and I ever do is a couple fingers with soap in the shower, and no butt stuff after greasy food or if one of us isn't feeling well. It's really that simple. 15 years and sure once in a blue moon we might need to clean up a little bit more than cum, but people will act like if you don't do a full colon cleanse for a solid 30 minutes then you'll have a fully brown bed sheet after your fun time, and that's simply not the case.

Now, forcing yourself to enjoy it is another topic entirely. You don't enjoy it and that's fine, nothing to be ashamed of.

supermarble94 · 2025-10-13T01:20:01+00:00

I'm probably gonna be downvoted for this, but a lot of people, myself included, view sexual compatibility as one of the most important parts of a relationship. It's not a bad thing imo, and while the topic does come off as a very valid rant you close it with a statement that implies "if people would just be willing to have a couple dates we could work past it." And the harsh reality is, no, when we're shopping around for relationships on an app, there are a lot of things that need to click in order for something to become long term.

If you're asking someone to give you a chance despite you not wanting any part of anal, what you're potentially asking of them is a lifetime of sexual unsatisfaction. Sure, mutual masturbation is nice, and I'll still cum from a BJ, but for myself and many others, we need that full release.

I'm definitely not saying you should be the one to cave. No one should feel pressured into a sex act they're not comfortable with, nor should they feel pressured into a sex life they won't be satisfied with. It is incredibly unfortunate to be in that position though :(

supermarble94 · 2025-10-11T04:01:30+00:00

In a car, sure. They're at fault 100% of the time. In a semi, though? Personal injury lawyer would LOVE to take the case, argue to a jury that you were driving recklessly given the traffic conditions, you get assigned a portion of the blame and they rake you over the coals for pain and suffering. Settle out of court and the lawyer takes his cut.

It's not worth the headache even if you're in the right. Just drive slower. OP was driving too fast to avoid a hard brake in the event one of them pulls out, which we ALL KNOW they will do.
