If it's any consolation, you're much more likely to get killed by the police officer than the logging truck

If the avatar is real, she’ll be relatively safe unless she marries one.

[–] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I didn't think it's true, but the avatar did have his lessons. 10/10 everyone should watch it. And not that James Cameron bullshit.

It's funny because it's statistically true.

Ice cold reference! I never heard anyone else reference that one in regards to You Will Die In Remarkable Ways II.

You're a fucking spring blossom and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My problem is I'm a corpse flower.

Those are the prettiest ones! Like, sunflowers!

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

I don’t remember a logging truck in kill bill

[–] lime@feddit.nu 23 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

logs that fall off of trucks don't behave that way in real life so that's still a ticket

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 27 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sounds exactly what death would say

[–] lime@feddit.nu 7 points 2 weeks ago
[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yeah, you have to run into the log, it doesn't suddenly jump backwards,

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But you’re traveling at high speeds and they’d be hard to avoid if they all fell off at once

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah but if you brake you will slow down quicker than the logs. The logs won't just suddenly shift their momentum upon falling off and jump into your vehicle.

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Now a spinning tire coming off a vehicle is a demon from hell and can do whatever the hell it wants physics be damned.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Rotational momentum is a hell of a thing

[–] kungen@feddit.nu 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Even if you're tailgating and the log bumps off? I'm not good at physics btw.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yes. You are both going the same speed. Unless there is some obstacle on the road that will immediately stop the log your brakes will do a better job of slowing you down than a log will just sliding on the road. The bigger danger is honestly driving towards the truck in case this happens

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Two hours later, both of you are still trying to guess which movie you're talking about

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Look, in the spirit of community, in case somebody isn't getting it, this is a reference to the movie Speed! with Nicholas Cage.

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Weird, I thought it's Final Destination 2 with Keanu Reeves.

It's big, it's heavy, it's wood.

It's better than bad. It's good.

[–] GhostedIC@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Speed limit: 65 Trucks: 55 I pass a truck at 76... That's a ticket, 11mph over puts you in the "real fines" zone. Never mind that the truck was going 21mph over his speed limit.

Oh, and then the officer says... Since its a first offense, you can waive the fine if you take our online class, and it won't be reported to your insurance.

The online class has a fee of exactly the fine +$10. Payable to some private company of course.

I wanted to turn around, drive back to Nebraska and [fedpost].

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

GhostedIC@sh.itjust.works has not one, but TWO warning labels next to their name, telling us that this person is not to be fucking trusted.

What's up with dat.

Edit: O shit I just glanced at your comment history and now I know what's up with dat.

Is that the one about the sentient log that rolls around killing people?

Honest question. What is the origin/reason of this fashion to prevent the use of capitals?

[–] bestelbus22@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure it started with artists using lowercase in their titles and album names. I have 0 evidence for this

You didn't even need to see the movie, that scene was in the trailer which was was everywhere at the time
