  • I was managing a bar/club in a student city, and somebody decided to puke in the urinal and clogged it to all hell. So I called a plumber to fix it cause I wasn’t able to, and got to talking with the guy. Asked him if he had any weird encounters, and he told me that once he was called to a house of a very infamous frat to fix some blockage. He was let inside, and there was this couple just straight up fucking with their doors open. He asked them to stop; they didn’t. So after asking a second time with the same outcome, he just left and sent them a bill for the start-up cost.

    Trades people encounter some shit man















  • Both approaches have technical challenges. Returning to land requires a slower landing speed (although as a percentage of the starting velocity of a spacecraft its a pretty insignificant difference) and landing on the sea requires the carrying of flotation devices and designing a capsule with buoyancy in mind.

    Does landing on the sea really require that much more braking when compared to land? Sure water has some give but I’ve always understood that, from a large enough hight, due to surface tension landing on water is the same as landing on concrete. But I ain’t no physicist and by no means of the imagination a rocket scientist so I might as well be very wrong here lmao
