Maybe you could cheer it up by putting it on a silver car.

There is a witty comment here.

Great artist, terrible exhaust fitter.
A tongue in cheek, slightly cheesy contradiction to your comment.
Baseless slander against your mother.

Well, I wanted to go towards something like this in this thread, but of course, the interweb has it done already. 900+ comments, it would take us quite a while to get there.
Or, citing “InterroBan” from p.12: “Mildly funny remark posted far too late.”
Meme commenting on the rapid descent of this thread.
Too-late response that nobody gives a shit about
Even later comment that misses the point entirely

Are the colorblind still fair game to screw with? Alrighty then, let’s green light the shenanigans!

I hear he has dampers that adjust for pretension rather than preload.
I read that as diapers.

Long, unproductive day today. I got a long nurse-the-bike home session today. On the way home, a couple miles away from my place, I had a sudden loss off power, and then Little Bike ran terrible. When I got it home, I tore into the engine (as the clutch felt like it was still working as expected). Good news: timing chain is intact. Bad news: both valves lost the retaining nuts on their lash adjusters. Which would explain all the symptoms. :-/ I found the exhaust nut and got its lash adjusted. However, I’m going to need to go invest in a dental mirror to find the intake valve’s nut. Annoying thing: I was going to go and check on those in the next week or two (the bike is closing in on the next maintenance interval for valve adjustment). I’m going to dial back Yamaha’s suggestion and open those covers much more often after this.

Well played. this is the 2 year (-ish) anniversary of the dress that broke the internet.
Sweden is reinstating conscription (abandoned 2010) because of the detoriating security situation. It’s illustrated with an antique Volvo in pristine mountains, which, sort of, doesn’t convey the message.

Does Norway still have conscription? Know someone who went to “prison” for being a (genuine) conscientious objector to military service. He was extradited from Ireland, but prison was more a sort of house arrest, more a case of being inconvenienced for six months that punished, but it’s a pain to technically have been a convict and the associated criminal record. Some countries allow civilian service instead (like working in hospitals, doing community work, etc.)
Yeah, but only about half of those eligible are drafted; both women and men are eligible. Civilian service though has become very important to make society go round. I was too fit to avoid duty at that age, and did civilian service myself.
Civilian service is a great idea, really could give young folks a lot of life skills.
Agreed, a “free year” of social or ecological service, or, as in Scandinavia, learning proper hiking/diving/hunting/pottery for a year before more serious school appears to have become the norm.
