My favorite segment has always been the heavy trucks. They can run it almost as fast as the smaller vehicles, all while carrying all the support equipment they need.

The rock formations on stage 10 are friggen gorgeous.

I guess there's a thing on Tik Tok where you sing a sea shanty, or something? I dunno, I don't follow that stuff, so I'm a little hazy on the details.

Anyway, what I DO know is that something epic came out of the whole thing:

Oh, man, that's the best thing on the internet.

That is fricking hilarious...

I sent it to a friend who has two cats and lives on Lake Huron.

I think you added the wrong link.

No, it's right.

You're obviously not a TPB fan.

Triple Bob · « **Reply #17110 on:** February 08, 2021, 10:44:24 am »

Am I the only person that doesn't 'get' TPB at all?

I love comedy, tried watching it, just didn't get it.

Some people don't like it. TPB is about as low brow as comedy can get...

You are not alone. Even watching that short video was painful and never cracked a smile even for a second.

I found the early episodes to be the best, like the first few seasons... recently I started watching it again on Netflix and the newer seasons are more painful to watch & no where near as funny as the first 7 seasons that ran from 2001 - 2007. The newer seasons (8 thru 11) on Netflix start in 2014 and run to 2018.

Scary yes but preventable by avoiding high risk areas.

Landslide triggers a flash flood in India, at least 30 dead, many more missing.

I heard 5M people are without power in the USA and 4M of those are in TX. That is crazy.

I was taking to a neighbour who's Son is a Medical Dr. in Houston. He said he was living at the hospital he worked at because he could not drive home to his house due to the roads and lack of snow tires. His house has had the heat off due to the hydro issue and his water pipes and pool are frozen.
