No it's a ute. A truck is a truck.

There's about as much evidence for twitter PTSD as for the case that this woman is possessed, which is why I don't believe either.

It's quite simple PZ. You see, bitch be crazy.

Pack of galahs. Let me sort this out.

A truck is a <3 ton that anyone can drive.

A ute is a fucking ute.

Tell that to the chick in the blue dress in the Ford ad...

A tractor is found on a farm.

A lorry is a truck spoken by grand-dad who still thinks it's 1950.

A semi is that scary mother fucker that transports shit between cities and is lit up like a $20 whore at night.

B-double - even more scary MF, with even more lights.

The only ute being sold in America is only made by Subaru and only driving by lesbians.

Every think else is a truck. Or a pick up. Or a pickup truck.

Don't be an idiot. You're talking about a semi. As in semi-trailer.

Glad to clear this up.

Exactly! The high-point of jugger-naughts in the UK was back in the 1960s, as embodied by Lesley Lawson. But, then, in 1970, we had the advent of Page 3 in The Sun, and British jugs have never since been looked at in the same way.

Here's something the pit might be able to help me with. I'm sure that in Jaws there's a point where Robert Shaw stops speaking English and just lapses into nonsensical sea-dog gibberish. I've re-watched and re-watched and as far as I can make out the dialog is the following:

"I've seen fingers torn off at the knuckle ... Hol Sin Bones Full O' Them "

Is this postmodernism ? Or can anybody make sense of it ? I've been puzzling over this for twenty five years.
Holes and bones, full o' them. Severed hands showing the gaping wounds and exposed bones of fingers ripped or severed off. A lot of commercial fishing equipment will strip you of digits in the blink of an eye, let alone dangerous fishies. At least that was my take. Northeast mariners lapse into dialect indecipherable, especially with drink. Bear might have a better take.

I think you have it right CFB. Most of the east coast sea dog talk I'm familiar with came from Captain Highliner commercials, especially his famous " Have ya ever been buggered at sea Billy?".

The day after the first Monday in November. It has a lot to do with farmers needing to travel to a polling place.

#58654

Oh, and our farmers are good, God-fearing folk, so they need to be home on Sunday. So, they use the Monday to travel and then vote on Tuesday. Makes totes sense in 2016, eh?

British Elections are held on Thursdays because that's the traditional market day and we'll all be in town and not back on our farms banging sheep.

Sundays are reserved for longbow practice.

In the mid-west, a majority of harvesting occurs in October. There's little to do in the summer when you grow wheat, corn, or soy-beans. In fact, elections can be a pain in the ass for farmers when October is wet and harvesting drags on into November, as it has again this year.

Watson Alert.

She's back. The skank has returned to patreon but sans "producer"

So he has really pulled the plug on her. Zippo. Fuck off. Satan begone.

I don't see her tweeting much about Adam these days and she has been battling cruel depression. Could he have dumped her? Or moved into an "open" relationship? As in "see that open door" .....

Anyway, booze won't buy itself so she she has dropped her "never compromise on quality" stance and is now reaping the dough with a selfie vlog approach. I'd embed but iPad.

Around my neck of the woods:

P U trucks and tractor trailers are just generally called trucks.

Ex. 1,if you say to a friend "how do you like the new ford trucks? " he knows your talking about pick up trucks.

Ex.2, if you say" Jesus Christ , those fucking slow ass trucks clogging up traffic again!" They know you are talking about tractor trailers.

Farm tractors are called farm tractors or just tractors. Rarely seen around here as most of the farms became tract housing seventy years ago. ( you have to go about 15-20 miles to see a real farm)

Cube ice, crushed ice, tube ice, any old timers remember flaked ice?

That was my favorite. It was like smashed ice in your drink.

It was most popular in the seventies and eighties. Then for some reason it started to disappear.

I don't think anyone uses it any longer.

free thoughtpolice wrote:Can fish sink boats? You decide.

Interesting, most modern center console fishing boats I know of are of the so-called "unsinkable type. The hull has foam sandwiched between the outer/inner layers of fiberglass to give positive floatation.

Boston whaler has a demonstration boat that has the front of the hull cut off and they cruise it around lakes and bays to show how unsinkable they are.

I don't see any self bailing scuppers on the boat in the vid ( a must to allow water to flow off the deck) so it might not be of that design, although I can't for the life of me come up with a reason why.

You can definitely swamp a boat by going into reverse at the wrong time so I guess this could have happened.

I would never guess I will one day spend an evening drinking and reading about tractors.

Here's our old school tractor, a pride and an envy of any farmer in late PRL (Poland's People Republic):

If you have a topical channel, there is no reason you can't put up at least a post a week.( webcam style) if you are interesting. you really don't need lots of graphics, that's window dressing, the meat is in what you have to say.
