92 Of The Most Ridiculous Things People Had To Deal With At Work

Posted by admin on

We spend 8 if not more hours of the day at work and that’s without commuting, which is a notorious time-eater. That’s also a third of our day, and it takes up 5 days a week. That means that in the US, a full-time employee spends an average of 2,080 hours per year at the workplace. That also means it gives us enough time to gather some great memories and valuable experiences, as well as moments we’d much rather forget. And this post is about the latter scenario. “What is the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever had to deal with...

Flights of Fancy (Part 30): Cleared for Landing

Posted by admin on

We finally reach the final chapter of our longest non-stop flight to date down an animation trail. The tower has given us the signal to make our final approach. Our landing gear are operative and lowered. Runway lights are in sight. Visibility clear, no turbulence. We’ll make a smooth pass over the remaining studios with something to say about aeronautics, then bring this pleasure excursion to a close. King Features Syndicate would finance the production of episodes starring several of its comic strip mainstays in the early 1960’s, handing out the tasks of nuts-and-bolts production to several directors and studios....

Posted by admin on

The first GT car built on Porsche’s latest 911 platform — the 992 generation — is the 2022 Porsche GT3. And it’s the wildest, most advanced one yet. You get adjustable aerodynamics, which generates up to 150% more downforce than the outgoing model — and that includes a swan-neck mounted rear wing.

“Resident Aliens”

Posted by admin on

When the power goes out, we hang knives from the ceiling as substitute lights; when our beds are hungry, they bake us into bread; when the bills arrive as a flock of carnivorous birds that threaten to peck out our intestines, my mother and seven aunts and I share two bedrooms and rent out the basement—what had once been a slaughterhouse, with hooks that snagged on our shadows and no windows but our mouths—to a series of widows who respond to our Craigslist ad. The first widow came with a collection of wigs—colored to match any weather, any cloudmood—and refused...

The Ultimate Dallas / Fort Worth Travel Guide

Posted by admin on

If you are looking for a destination that perfectly marries Southern hospitality, modern luxury, and a hint of the Wild West, listen up! In my opinion, Dallas/Fort Worth is one of the hidden gems of Texas. Everyone flocks to Austin for the Austin City Limits music festival or to San Antonio for the riverwalk, but there is something about DFW that those other Texan cities just can’t compete with. Perhaps the best part about a trip to Dallas/Fort Worth is that you are basically getting two completely different experiences in one! In uptown Dallas, you will find luxurious hotels and...
