I cringe every time when some Castanet posters post "my sincere condolences to the family ..." every time they read the news of somebody dying anywhere on the planet be it in Vancouver, Kentucky, or Timbuktu.

Ha! and as a plus everyone would wear nice undies as they'd be for public viewing. No more they have more holes than a sieve and the elastic is so shot you just 'bout need suspenders to keep them up, but they are comfy!!

I don't like folks who seem to have a 30 inch waiste yet buy pants with a 48 inch waiste and then DON'T wear a belt so we get to see the skid marks and lack of hygene and manners everytime they leave the house..
Whats with these idiots anyway they think they are gang bangers and criminals , yet have you watched them try and run from police in those pants? Police should just walk behind them untill they fall as their pants always do. Try running with you pants around your ankles... IQ apparently missing as any good criminal knows you wear good footwear fitted clothes(dark or light) depending on lighting conditons ect..
These idiots with pants around their knees are not only useless criminals but they look really stupid.

Why don't many mechanics know how to close the hood of a vehicle? Given the sheer number of hoods they close in a day one would think they'd figure out you can't push down on the hood without leaving a dent. You wouldn't close the car door by pushing softly until it clicks and then push in the center of your door to fully close it. So why would you close a hood that way. I have a brand new car that has been into a mechanics twice, once for snow tires and another for noisy brakes. I now have 3 dents along the front of my hood. The hood can take a pretty good slam just like a door or trunk, if it doesnt fully close, unlatch and slam again. Seems pretty basic but it's surprising how few people know how to do it properly. But most people don't work on vehicles all day. There is no excuse for a mechanic not to know how close a hood but many just go through the day obliviously denting one customer's hood after the other. It's as though we need a decal on the hood that says 'don't push here' but should we really have to, were paying anywhere from 120$ to 180$ per hour for them to work on the car, shouldn't that be enough to trust they know how to do thier jobs?

OHH!! How about people who enter a grocery store, come to a dead stop right in the doorway and stand there like a stunned idiot when they've got 5 people behind them who are trying to get in as well?
