I don't quite get the one of the cheerleader at the playground. What vapid pop-culture event did I miss?

That white chick that got "raped and murdered" in Aruba by that dude that killed and rapped that Peruvian chick?

Oh.

I don't really keep up on that kind of shit. Didn't even realize the whole drowning-kids-lady thing was still going on until somebody posted the mugshot wherein I realized that she looked like Chell and became sexually aroused in a "sociopathic killer artificial intelligence / fuel line de-icer" sort of way.

To wit:

Did you fap? I did.

Camm to my seminaah...

Antifreeze/KoolAid one is Jim Jones. Lookup "Jonestown".

Yeah, and the one with the airplane, the fire truck, and the two tall buildings is the World Trade Center. Lookup "9/11".

:rolleyes:

I honestly thought you missed it, sorry Joe. I'm sure someone will wonder what it is though.

Hehe. It's current events that I have trouble with, especially the sort where one white chick did something stupid and got into trouble as a result. (eg: I have utterly no idea what Paris Hilton and her buddies are up to, nor would I be likely to notice if they were all killed to death by a chainsaw-wielding maniac in a dark alley in Tijuana.)

Jonestown was kind of a big deal by comparison. :D

Can we make this happen?

With that said...I don't get the one with the winter scene with the bashed animal and Canadian hockey stick.

Huh. Just to show you how out of tough with F1 I am, I had no idea that they were using KERS.

What really blows my mind is that some of them are actually using a flywheel-based system:

As Doc Brown would say, that's some serious shit.

Didn't you actually play Doc Brown? :laugh:

Huh.

I honestly did now know that any road car utilized such a technology. Interesting also that they have chosen to use a motor/generator combo to transfer energy between the flywheel and the drivetrain; it was in the flywheel-based units I saw earlier, the coupling was described as mechanical, using either a CVT or a differential to transfer energy between the two.

Seems like once you've gone to the trouble to install one motor/generator, it'd be far cleaner to hook it up to a bank of supercapacitors. Having fewer precisely machined, massively delicate, amazingly heavy and fast-moving parts is usually considered to be a Good Thing™.



Image embed fail.

Isn't it a race car, or is it going to be built as a road car too?

I wonder how this gat will run.
