    also if I was that UPS driver and I saw the homeowner standing there watching me struggle, I'd have left the package at the bottom of the driveway and waved goodbye

    or. y'know

    walked on the snow

    I personally would've backed the truck up to the garage. But it's not as funny a video. :)

    A driveway as slippery as that, and as steep as that, it's entirely possible the truck couldn't get higher up.

    Edit: I'm misremembering the steepness of the driveway.
    Yeah it could have probably gotten further up.

    My kitten used to jump up into the narrow space above the fridge like that, then use the leverage to pop open the fridge and help himself.

    No one knew thing was happening until I happened to see him do it while I was outside the house through the window.

    I had to get a locking mechanism until he grew too big to fit up there.

    They're not supposed to do that, would definitely get in trouble if they did.

    I just wanna know what percentage of that video's views are originated from these forums.

    The Box of Pain bit is actually my least favorite part of that video and I skip it almost every time now. Not that it's bad, it's just not as good and goes on for way too long.

    The rest is solid gold though.

    Hey who wants to watch someone's career end



    There's sound but it's mostly wind noise.

    You can see the starboard jets trying to stop the momentum of the ship hitting the bow of the stationary one. It might have been mostly out of someone's control.

    Not sure if you've ever driven a 16 million ton ship in water that does whatever it wants, but I think it kind of does what it wants and you give it slight suggestions on what you'd prefer it do.

    Ships that big and complex definitely have bow and stern thrusters for manoeuvring, likely computer controlled from a very sophisticated control system in the bridge. A competent ship's captain should be trained and experienced enough to know how to avoid collisions like that.

    Painstakingly modelled after real parenting techniques.

    Yeah it looks like the starboard aft thruster is fully engaged in the gif, but it's just not enough. There's a fuckin' lot of mass moving on one of those things. We also don't know what the water on the other side of the ship is doing.

    I get that some people might enjoy the experience, but being stuck in a place with like 3,000 strangers for a week or two at a time does not seem like a good time to me at all...

    I went on a cruise as part of a bachelor party once (6-7 years ago? jesus). It was mostly super fun, except for the part where I went to get a massage feeling great, and then fell asleep and woke up with unfathomable nausea/sea sickness for the rest of the day. I assume it was the combination of being drunk and hungover at the same time (hard to achieve for me) and laying horizontal for more than an hour without actually being in bed.

    The highlight of that trip was me stumbling into one of the ship's many hot tubs moderately drunk at about 11:30pm with a Mormon family of 5 (dad, mom, and 3 kids from teen on down) and telling them how much I didn't believe in God. It went better than you would think!
