Why do i feel like this is something Joe would do.

 

That left hand does look kinda familiar.

I haven't done it with a stapler, though.

I did, in 2015-2016, pose a stuffed plushie appendix in a number of very random situations.

 

The Circle network is about to replay an old episode of Austin City Limits with Dwight Yoakum and Buck Owens.

 

 

 

Thanks for that.
Now, while we're still on the topic of things NOT to do a google search for at work . . .
I present the hanging naked man flower:

 

Yeah, I made the same mistake.



Anyway, this engine confuses me.



I mean, I technically understand how it works, I simply don't understand why a person would create such a thing.

No idea as to manufacturer. It's a V8. The rocker arms contact the sides of the cam (each cam lobe operates two opposite rockers), and they're hinged at the point where they descent into the head. Which, by the way, is also the intake manifold. Sidedraft carb bolts onto that tiny little opening at the bottom of frame.

 

That is a Wilbee V8. The only one built. It was very early in the V8 world. Design was "turn of the century" a century ago...

The reasons for a narrow bank V engine is to use a single cylinder head and reduce the need for multiple cam shafts and complex cam drives.


Volkswagen has the most successful narrow bank engine. Their VR6 engine was used in a bunch of vehicles.

VW used a W12 (two VR6s mated at the crank) in their Phaeton.

And the cat daddy of all narrow bank engines is the W16 that VW put in the Bugatti Veyron...

Narrow banks commonly have very strange pistons with angled crowns much like the GM W series engine.

 

That's worth a

I expected to see Owl Kitty there...

 

That reminds me. There's this video where all of the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park are replaced with cats. I gotta find that...

 

That's literally Owl Kitty.

 

Yes.

That was the joke.

Because we pounded that specific video absolutely to death a few months ago.






That having been said, I would assume that being eaten alive by a large carnivorous fish (or a dinosaur) is probably unpleasant.

No personal experience here, just imagining.

All else being equal, I think I'd rather avoid that.

Which, in the grand scheme of things, is odd, as my goal in life (and I'm not being sarcastic here) is to die of causes such as being gored by a bison or bitten by a rattlesnake just as I am on the cusp of no longer being able to function independently as a nomad living on public land in the western US, sometime in the mid to late late 2040 / early 2050s.
