Isn’t that a jar of fuck-yous?

I work at a facility that handles large barges, as well as ships. With the ships, tugs are the main force finessing it into place but also the ships own power source can be used to reverse thrust and ‘apply the brakes’.

The barges are likely more similar in size to that of ships in times before tugs were around to help. Assuming the weather is not too rough (wind can wreak havoc in the process, and it’s more safe for them to be at open sea than to attempt a landing) the barge approaches the dock very slowly, and the tug that has towed it there is also a factor here but the large, heavy ropes that are used to tie the barge up to the dock can be used to ‘apply the brakes’. These ropes are attached to the barge, and a worker on the dock puts a wrap or two around a cleat and is able to apply enough tension in the rope so that it slips just enough for the situation. If he holds the tail of the rope taught, the knot on the cleat gets tight, and the rope gets tight and stretches (the diameter of the rope might be 4 inches in its static state, and as it stretches, the diameter reduces dramatically…. This always freaks me out because I know that if the rope breaks under this kind of stress, it’s like a rubber band on steroids and can literally cut a man in half) as the barge slows down. He can loosen his grip and allow more rope to slip if necessary.

Someone waiting in line really broke wind

So, the plaque was placed in 1898?

Um, no. No one does. Apparently the joke didn’t land.

Ithn’t that what a Democrat doeth to an election?

It’s only a miniature horse. My feet are touching the ground.

There is no comparison between the two. Apples and dog farts. The refillable versions are refilled with actual whipped cream, that the business whips themselves. I’m surprised that the propellant is nitrous oxide. Isn’t that what they use as booster fuel in race cars? Seems volatile but what do I know?…oh…I know what I know….store-bought, canned whipped cream is vastly inferior to the original. That’s just scientific fact😜

The cafe stuff is real whipped cream. The air bubbles that are incorporated into it while it’s being whipped are smaller than the air bubbles in the canned crap. The crap in the cans gets it’s bubbles from the gas (CO2?) that’s pressurized into the can along with the cream-like-substance.

Very unique shitpost

I was thinking it was going to be show casing houses built of recycled plastic. It’s ‘printing’ concrete? This should be posted in r/gimmicks

But because you do understand that certain scientists are being paid by corporations that have a vested interest in the outcome of their studies, is pretty good reason for skepticism

Should have a condom on it (for immaculate contraception)

I understand all that. But then what?
