  1. Worked at a store that was being remodeled and they were putting stucco on the exterior. Use huge sheets of styrofoam and sculpted textures into it. Those f'n little white balls covered at least a square mile of town. We got hundreds of calls from angry homeowners. I've never been so happy when a remodeling project was done.

    Oh, so you think that’s me. I can see you’ve paid close attention to this thread. Like I said, established moron. Reinforced. 

    Inability to follow thread established. Stick to reddit.

  3. I know several evangelicals. They all believe dinosaurs are a myth and Earth is only 6,000 years old. They didn't start believing that until not long ago. I'm convinced they were brainwashed/indoctrinated. Church culture is cult culture. They slowly turn your brain to mush as they teach you to march along in step.

    SHANGHAI (Reuters) - The co-pilot of a Sichuan Airlines flight that was forced to make an emergency landing on Monday was “sucked halfway” out of the plane after a cockpit windshield blew out, media reported, citing the aircraft’s captain.

    Liu Chuanjian, hailed a hero on social media after having to land the Airbus A319 manually, told the Chengdu Economic Daily his aircraft had just reached a cruising altitude of 32,000 feet when a deafening sound tore through the cockpit.

    The cockpit experienced a sudden loss of pressure and drop in temperature and when he looked over, the cockpit’s right windshield was gone.

    “There was no warning sign. Suddenly, the windshield just cracked and made a loud bang. The next thing I know, my co-pilot had been sucked halfway out of the window,” he was quoted as saying.

    “Everything in the cockpit was floating in the air. Most of the equipment malfunctioned ... and I couldn’t hear the radio. The plane was shaking so hard I could not read the gauges.”

    The co-pilot, who was wearing a seatbelt, was pulled back in. He suffered scratches and a sprained wrist, the Civil Aviation Administration of China said, adding that one other cabin crew member was also injured in the descent. None of the plane’s 119 passengers was injured.

    The windshield shattered about half an hour after the plane had taken off, the Chengdu Economic Daily said. A separate report said the aircraft had accumulated 19,912 flight hours since entering service at Sichuan Airlines in July 2011.

    CAAC also said that the windshield was part of the original aircraft and had no previously recorded faults.

    Anyone here besides me actually live in WF?

    I'm south of Bowie. I live on the dividing line of people that go to WF and people that go to FW. I go to FW.

    Ladies and gay mafia,

     

    Is Beto really that good looking?

    Let's just say I'm 100% sure that Beto's DNA test would come back as human.
