Literally? 6 on her one hand (one of those is his) and 5 on her other.

I was sitting, watching, waiting for the BSOD to creep into this thread.

Drinking Fountain Fail!


I took this photo in a bathroom in Seattle, WA. last year. Apparently there is a huge problem with people drinking form toilets in the pacific northwest.

Y'all might want to only drink bottled water on your next visit up there!

I don't think the warning would be necessary. But, for some...

Reminds me of that great line from "Roadhouse"

"There is a sign above the urinals in this place that says Don't eat the big white mint"

Classic!

"There is a sign above the urinals in this place that says Don't eat the big white mint"

I once saw a sign that said, "Please do not throw cigarette butts in the urinal."

Someone had added, "They're hard to light" :smile:

The current economic crisis has forced even some corporations to modify their logos:

i'll have to look at it at home. It is considered work inappropriate by the corporate firewall.

Firewall... FAIL!

Compared to the pics you posted, it's incredibly tame!

Close, Troy, but you got it a bit off:

I just had one of these following behind me. Never noticed one before.

It was very intimidating in the rear view mirror although thankfully this guy wasn't trying to push me. He was a gentleman.

I dunno what variation that one was (maybe a F250...F450?) but I was mesmerized by it and almost stared in my mirror as we dealt with the tollway construction SNAFU. It was a fascinating, towering wall of chrome and after a minute

I knew what it reminded me of:

Speed tape! A requisite in every A&P's tool box. At least we try to hide it a little better on our planes.

Fail...

remind me again who this guy is?

 

[Capt. Geoffrey Thorpe]

remind me again who this guy is?

He's the guy who jumped out of his airplane leaving it to continue on auto pilot - 'cept it ran out of gas short of the ocean so it was obvious that he was no longer in it when it came down. Got caught within a day or two. I think he had some investment scams running that were getting uncovered etc. Don't recall the name.

What's wrong with that? Every fire extinguisher instruction I've ever read says to aim at the base of the fire.

The base, yes. What the pic doesn't show is he started spraying while yards away from the pot and slowly crept forward. Notice the lack of residue on the ground from the approach side of the pot? He was spraying into the air and trucks and persons got covered with the residue. The pic shows as close as he got. Nowhere close to the base. The fire continued unabated until the fuel (several gallons of 100LL and oil rags) was nearly depleted. This was markedly different from the aggressive fire control practised by the other pilots and mechanics. We all had a hoot watching. I guess it was one of those "you had to be there" moments.
