The Nerd

Cropped news article states that 42% of surveyed Lay's customers did not know that the brand's potato chips contained real potatoes.

How are so many people so stupid? Did they think the bag labeled "potato chips" was chicken or something else?

A broken window and a deployed airbag. An attempted theft gone wrong?

It's very rare to find a split-level house in Detroit.

Yoo, Mr. Unitary Executive, would do anything to enhance republican presidential power - except drink Kool-Aid, apparently.

Had one. Grey. 5-speed. Those plastic panels always look great. Junked it when I crawled underneath to do an oil change and saw daylight in parts of the subframe. The rust-belt giveth salt, in abundance. It's the Ozempic of automotive steel.

That can't be right. It's showing the gold coast of Lakewood having the greatest density of gop voters. Anyone who has lived near Cleveland knows Lakewood is anything but conservative.

“I gave my life to Christ in the Cracker Barrel parking lot” sounds like the filthiest euphemism I have ever heard.

It's sad that people managed to navigate that exit in the past with cars without power brakes, nor power steering and with manual transmissions. Despite technological and safety advances, we've regressed.

My evil mind hopes they add a launch ramp at the end for the very reckless drivers' punishment

Amazon, when I order $5 dill pickle peanuts: rings doorbell, knocks, and leaves package at side door.

Amazon, when I order a laptop and the box clearly says it's a laptop: Nothing and leaves the package very visible at the front door.

If I weren't near the front and heard him put the box down...

He should make sure that he has sunflower seeds in his pocket. That will make him a useful idiot at least.

No-Shave-November before and after.

Despite quality control issues, I think people 𝘙𝘌𝘈𝘓𝘓𝘠 hate haggling at dealerships even if it may be cheaper ultimately.

So it begins...

This is Molotov's "bread basket" in 2025. Like the Finns of the past, I'm glad Ukraine is returning the favor with appropriate "cocktails" as a sign of gratitude.

Someone painted that lovely stone porch a hideous crimson!

Your rights if a hotel refuses to serve English food on a foreign holiday A consumer rights champion has explained the rules after one woman had to eat Greek food every day on her Greek holiday

Imagine going to Greece for a vacation and complaining that they only had Greek food and not the particular food from your home country.

Now imagine the exquisite native cuisine you demand they serve you is ENGLISH FOOD.

A stray ginger cat refuses to let my dog back in the house unless I feed her. This has been going on for 7-8 months and three times per day. I've bought so much cat food for having no cat.

I would have bet that house would be demolished. The restoration isn't the best, but it's great to see Detroit starting to reverse seven decades of abandonment and demolitions.

Nah, guillotines are too humane (literally invented by a doctor and scandalously named after his rival, Dr. Guillotine). I think dull axes and boiling oil would at least be a better deterrent.

There is a special place in Hell for people who do monstrous revisions to beautiful old homes.

Asian market Lincoln Corsair?

It must hold sentimental value or the owner must be a maniacal mechanic. That car should have been turned into a can of Coke or Coors a few decades ago.

It looks like an updated, but lowered, Scion XB. If it stayed in the lower price range I could see it working.

It hasn't even been six months!

Found one that I've actually been inside. Although they moved away decades ago, I had relatives that lived here and the abandoned home next to it.

I, too, prefer the ICE that doesn't snatch and take people, without due process, to modern concentration camps.

There are far fewer abandoned places in Detroit than ten years ago. I tire of people still posting ruin-porn of buildings that have been fully restored (MCS), demolished (Packard), or like here, not even in Detroit nor North America.

My fellow Americans, unfortunately.
