He was an old pensioner in New Zealand and spent his days modifying and old Indian scout motorcycle. He melted down scrap and casted his own parts. There was no place in New Zealand flat enough and long enough for him to really see how fast his bike would go. He got a lot of support from the locals to raise money and was able to make the journey to the United States to go to Death Valley, where he and his old motorcycle were underestimated by all. But he crushed the land speed records (in his category) which may still be unbroken today. He was infectiously likeable and a really unexpected god of speed, the ultimate underdog

Oh they made a movie about him called The world’s fastest Indian it’s absolutely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it

I really love Burt Munro’s story

The one that got away

She was a punk rock girl all tatted up. She felt quite bad about dropping the deuce

My ex was day drunk and wearing lingerie and power sharted right on my kitchen floor

I would love to be able to knit sweaters

I find it so surprising that the single edge gem blades didn’t take over the shaving world, compared to the standard double edged safety razor. The angle is built right into the razor head, it’s essentially idiot proof!

Gem razors ftw!

It didn’t cross my mind that people would play themselves that way but that totally makes sense

This is a cool project, glad to see things are still progressing. Is there an option for manually adding activities (like cycling or workouts), or is it solely based on the step counter of the phone?

First thing that came to mind!

Worse

The “p” in pee tape is probably not short for “pee”

What is dead can never die

A lot of the fitness apps have tracking for weightlifting. You get a little badge or animation when you hit a new max… I think there’s a missed opportunity here for a weightlifting RPG like walkscape is for walking…

Yes and then tracking, in great detail, exactly how heavy the things were and how much heavier they were than last time. Just incredible stuff

I started lifting for self improvement and quickly got hooked on progression and getting stronger. It didn’t take long to become a habit and now it’s the thing I most look forward to after a long day of work. With no more than three hours per week you can completely transform yourself…

There once was a game that was not free
The head of the game was big Randy
He joked one day with a cheery grin
Real fans would pay the fee HUAGH

Soon may the pirates come
To snag some games and have their fun
One day, when the cracks are done
We’ll take our games and go
