    2nd grade joke: how many people does it take to make chocolate chip cookies? Two. One to mix the batter and one to squeeze the rabbit. :rofl:

    Pancake bunnies

    LOL, me too! There are many levels of comedy. At the bottom is bathroom humor, bodily noises, etc. Just above that is what I call incongruent juxtaposition - slapping two things together that don't make sense, but end up being funny. A bunny with a pancake on its head being my favorite...

    Please! Make it stop! (Stock market crash)

    That's because for the most part, it's true. They can't. In the research I've done, the top two contributors to an individual's returns are: asset allocation and controlling costs. And even asset allocation does not make a big difference (i.e. the ol' 60/40 stocks/bonds is not significantly...

    Please! Make it stop! (Stock market crash)

    What do you call a stock that's down 90%? A stock that was down 80% and then got cut in half.

    Allstate Insurance “Sucker” List

    Those exist and they have for a long time. They’re called mutual insurance companies. Remember Mutual of Omaha (wild kingdom)? Here’s a US list: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Mutual_insurance_companies_of_the_United_States

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    Why did someone black out the roundel on the steering wheel? Everyone knows it's Bimmer drivers who don't user their turn signals! :D

    “Learning that we’re only immortal, for a limited time.” Seen Rush every tour from Hold Your Fire til R40. Sad day, indeed.

    We’re overdue for another automotive thread.

    Ooh don't get me started. I was car shopping a year ago. Went to a Carmax to sit in one of everything to see what I liked. -- Actually, per your other thread, have you done that? One (I think it was a Lexus NX200) looked the designers had vomited every possible button, knob, slider, touchpad...

They also like to...

    Finally , NTSB Returned my Video

    @GMascelli : Merry Christmas to you too! Glad you got your camera back. I’m not sure I would’ve had the intestinal fortitude to watch the video though. If you do post it, speed it up 2x and replace all the audio with Yakety Axe (aka the Benny Hill theme song). Makes every crash video more...
