    be sure to salvage the strong magnets out of there as well. they're very useful. i took the two magnets from an old harddrive and used them to make a super strong money clip. it can securely hold 25 bills folded in half (50 layers!)

  13. Re:From the No Duh Dept. on How To Build Roads To Control How Fast You Drive · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    this is why when someone is tailgating me on purpose to punish me for having the gall to drive the speedlimit or whatever messed up reasoning they have, i just give the breaks a good smack. if they manage not to hit me, it gives them a right fuckin scare and if they do hit me, oh well, there was a deer on the roadway and i had to break to not hit it. i've been rearended a number of times, but it's well worth it in my opinion as i'm sure those people stopped tailgating for a while at the very least.
