That is grotesque. And what a horrible thing to do to such a beautiful person.

The real Zooey Deschanel

Well I like Chapell's comedy too.

This is my friend's uncle who used to be Washington State Patrol and just recently got off patrol car duty. I don't know why but it cracks me up that he's so pissed off about driving, he must miss being able to pull over idiots.

I forget who posted it, i think I saw this here recently, maybe these should really be installed. I know Wyoming needs them...

Two days ago I was behind a 70's trans am with magnaflows that scraped the ground every time he hit a bump. It was clear the owner was in to cars, but his ground clearance did not permit very quick travel. And apparently he was unaware of these rules of the road. So after a while of being stuck behind him, I finally got the chance to pass him. I showed him my displeasure using universal single finger language as I passed on the right. He thought that was HAAALARRRIOUS. As demonstrated a few miles later, while he played chicken with me by driving in to my lane, while also speaking my language. It's too bad people like that don't spontaneously combust.

As an Honor Guard bagpiper, I play many gigs for other people. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a county cemetery in the back country. As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions.

I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch.

I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn’t know what else to do, so I started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like I’ve never played before for this homeless man.

And as I played ‘Amazing Grace,’ the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full.

As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, “I never seen nothin’ like that before and I’ve been putting in septic tanks for twenty years.”

Apparently, I’m still lost… It’s a man thing. (D)

I HATE this video. The only way this would be OK is if they cleaned up the mess afterwards.

These kids are stupid punks! Their parents need to be slapped.

I would hope they clean that stuff up, and pay for the merchandise....

If you watch some of their other videos too.. they definitely cross the line sometimes

Broken down C70 on an off ramp today :(

When I got to the end, I too had tears in my eyes, from laughing so hard,,,,, :D

Daaaayum I hate spoilers on C70s..... Looks like a 90's firebird or mustang or something, not a classy Euro GT car.

I was in the car with my dad when we saw that. He said "looks like a Mustang with that spoiler" lol
