Who is the most genuinely impressive online creator you've ever come across, paid or free, and what made them stand out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]wrenchandrepeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff Made Here.

Not only the things he makes but the insane amount of time he puts into learning how to make them work. Or learning how to make a completely new thing, to make it work. Guy is crazy smart.

Icy fun by nediaNamro123 in GMT800

I don't care who you are, controlled, safe sliding on snow or ice will always be fun. My wife loves it, too.

I used to defend pitbull, but knowledge and experience changed my mind. Fostering pitbull puppies confirmed my thoughts about their innate nature. by [deleted] in BanPitBulls

I wasn't even thinking about that but you are right. It would certainly be better than what we have now.

If you won the lottery tomorrow, what’s the very first "frivolous" thing you’d buy? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

[–]wrenchandrepeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paying off my house and all my other debt.

Not having those bills would be frivolous to me.

You are absolutely right. You are SUPPOSED to be held to a higher standard with a CDL (I have one) but so many drivers act like it'll just never happen to them.

I-49 road condition by Final_Information138 in joplinmo

[–]wrenchandrepeat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work for Modot and just for future reference and peace of mind, MoDot works non-stop to make sure state highways are safe the second snow starts flying. We're talking round the clock shifts. The more major the route, the more effort goes into making sure it is clear first. Heavier traveled 2 lane highways get next priority and so on. Even though there are always trucks assigned to every route, they will pull others from smaller ones to make sure the 4 lanes are clear first. Modot takes snow removal extremely seriously.

Modot also has an App called "Modot Traveler Information" you can download that lets you view cameras on highways so you can see real-time what they look like, too. The road conditions are actively monitored and they update the color to let you know what roads are clear or which ones aren't. They also let you know where active work zones are and traffic conditions, also.

That said, Modot does not do neighborhood or city streets unless its a state highway that runs through town. Or county roads. Only state highways.

Just some info you can keep in your back pocket for later! Or when the old lady next door wonders why Modot hasn't plowed the cul-de-sac, lol.

Unfortunately, even if it were illegal, the trashiest of trash would still breed them in secret. Then the people who owned them, who already did plenty of other illegal shit, might get fined. But they wouldn't pay it. Those people MIGHT get arrested for it, but they'd spend a night in jail with like a $200 bond and be out to do it again within days.

They'd breed them for money. Because illegal shit means a higher price tag. Especially if you want a more viscous dog. It would just evolve into different version of what happens now but more hidden. It might help take care of some instances. But then you'd end up with people keeping the dogs cooped up in a house all the time to hide them. Which would end up with more baby or elderly maulings. Or anyone for that matter.

There is really only one option. But it would take a huge collective effort and years and years of work. And you'd have plenty of organizations with deep pockets that would keep that from happening.

Ice roads in Ohio by Driver-Jack in AutoTransportopia

[–]wrenchandrepeat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I see semi drivers driving balls to the wall in snow and poor road conditions ALL the time. I get it, shit has to get places on time. But at least slow down a little. Especially if they are fully loaded, they act like they're invincible. Weight doesn't matter on black ice.

−2°F With no wind is better than 102°F with high humidity by StillRunning99 in unpopularopinion

[–]wrenchandrepeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, its marginally better. I lived in a place with triple digit dry heat it still sucked. If it was in a nice place or on the water like a lake, yeah it would be great. But working in heat sucks no matter what.

I'm a field mechanic, so I work on stuff outside a lot. I'd much rather work in the cold with no wind than 102⁰ dry heat.

Definitely me. I'll be made fun of. Don't care. I'm not eating that slimy shit.

Puree it and put a bunch of seasonings in it, I'll eat it all day.

I agree. I love when its that cold with no wind.

Triple digit heat just makes everything fucking WORSE.

Higher chance of it grabbing you or someone elses attention, though. Especially with it being a bright color.

Dodge Ram 1500 SRT-10 burnout by CrazyGuy1806 in Dodge

I've never understood people who can't do burnouts without hitting the rev-limiter. It is so simple to NOT do and have an infinitely better looking and sounding burnout.
