Rusty Shackleford

@AlexFromBarrie hey got your flyer in the mail today. I noticed that you did not make mention for any road resurfacing. Barrie roads are the worst in Simcoe. What is your plan for that?

20 years ago, a man screamed his own name into a microphone and ruined everything. It became one of the most famous moments in internet history.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A group of players in an online game called World of Warcraft had spent several minutes planning a complicated raid. Timing, positioning, survival odds. One player calculated their chances of success at 32.33 percent, repeating. The whole time, one of their teammates wasn’t listening. He’d stepped away from his computer to reheat some chicken. When he came back, he ignored everything, screamed his character’s name at the top of his lungs, and charged straight into the fight alone. Everyone followed him in. They all died in seconds. “Leeroy, you are just stupid as hell.” “At least I have chicken.” The clip spread across the internet before “going viral” was even a phrase. It was referenced in South Park, How I Met Your Mother, and an article in a military journal. The game’s developer added the character as an official figure inside the game. His name became shorthand for anyone who ruins a plan by doing something reckless. The whole thing was staged. The group admitted years later it was a scripted re-enactment of something that had actually happened. The cameraman said: “We didn’t think anyone would believe it was real. We thought it was so obviously satire.” The player behind Leeroy Jenkins is a guy named Ben Schulz. He repairs industrial lighting for a living.

@DriveTeslaca You have inspired me to set this up. Basically tried once 2 years ago and gave up but thanks to this post I’ve got it up and running. Many thanks.

UPDATE: finally got it to work! Did a manual firmware update and factory reset, but turns out the issue all along might have been my 2.4ghz network’s password security - needs to be WPA2, not WPA3! Changed it and we have a connection! ⚡️ 🔋

Can you name the truck with four-wheel drive? Smells like a steak, and seats 35.

More on this. During Covid wing prices skyrocketed. A 40 pound case went for around $80 to $240. So places HAD to raise their prices. So wings went from $8 a dozen to like $18 a dozen. They started offering 10 instead. And people paid. After things settled down in say late 2021 prices returned to pre-covid levels, but places didn’t want to give up the revenue. So the switch to bigger wings started occurring. A bit more expensive sure, but still far more profitable. You are now being ripped off. I myself kept them around $12 a dozen, which is fair. But what pisses me off is that bigger wings simply aren’t nearly as good. Too much meat. Not as crispy. The skin became secondary. Wings aren’t a meal, they’re an appetizer, something you eat with a few beers. So now getting wings means you pay far too much for a product that’s simply not as good. It ends now. MAKE WINGS GREAT AGAIN!

@MarioNawfal @grok is this real

🇨🇳 TESLA MODEL Y FALLS OFF 800-METER CLIFF IN CHINA... DRIVER WALKS AWAY This is absolutely insane. A Tesla Model Y plunged off an approximately 800-meter cliff in China, tumbling down a mountainside. The vehicle was completely destroyed, windows shattered, body mangled beyond recognition. But the A- and B-pillars held. The passenger cabin didn't collapse. The battery didn't ignite. The driver suffered only minor injuries. Rescue crews had to dismantle the wreckage to recover the vehicle. Local reports are calling it a "miracle of survival." This is what happens when a car is engineered with safety as a priority, not an afterthought. Tesla's rigid structural design and low center of gravity from the battery placement aren't just marketing points. They're the reason this driver is alive. 800 meters is over 2,600 feet. That's not a fender bender. That's falling off a mountain. Most vehicles would have become a coffin. The Model Y became a survival pod. Source: @elonmusk / @ray4tesla

Office Space (1999) nailed the soul-crushing monotony of corporate life with hilarious precision. Mike Judge turned everyday workplace frustration into timeless comedy that still feels painfully relatable decades later.

17 years ago today, Sebastian Vettel got his 1st F1 win in Monza & he did it in a Toro Rosso 🤯 Seb is still the only driver ever to win a race using a Ferrari engine in a non-Ferrari car.
