    I don't know if the dog needed saving--she looked defensive and ready to wander away with her cubs if the dog would just leave her be. Impressive response though, I agree.

    Iron Cowboy completing 100 Ironmans in 100 days. Both classically impressive and impressively stupid since he probably took years off his life in the process.

    This really shouldn't be something impressive, but in this day and age it's impressive when companies actually stand behind their products and put a lifetime guarantee on tools that really shouldn't last a lifetime. Thanks Fiskars. Not the first time they've replaced tools with no hassle or hoops to jump through.

    Could’ve got em for false advertising as you quite clearly didn’t have “2x cutting power” in that instance...

    Edit: funny shit on the “gondola cable”btw

    That just might be a comment on the value of Mexican high school diplomas and engineering degrees.

    I'm guessing if she's that smart she's at a US school, and probably a good one.

    Nah, but it has to be a terrible curse to live with--to only see the negative side of everything.
