The website of "Stupid things people do to fix stuff" ThereiFixedit.failblog.com



Found in the first car of some young highschooler I bet... old cars didn't have cup holders I'm thinking... I never had anything made from 1973 to 1989, so I don't know. They aren't in my zone of interest.

I'm betting someone ends up in the emergency room

Sheesh these are lazy kids, is there anyone reading this that didn't put in years mowing lawns as a kid, before riding lawnmovers, self-propelled lawnmovers, and you think these kids could really use some time pushing a lawnmower?
real bad decisions caught on camera and shared with the rest of us to warn us of stupid ideas http://thereifixedit.failblog.org/

cool photos from Kombi rules

Isn't this a cool idea? Instead of painting your van, just add this cover to the front, and make faces on it.

evolved from Von Dutch's 2 stroke pogo stick, the Hop Rod... dangerous powered pogo


This is the first time I've seen one in person. It looks unused because it probably is virtually unridden. These things have hurt people, and the only riders that I've seen (on youtube) successfully not get thrown have been skateboarders and stunt men

was the "Dude" at Qualcomm yesterday? Looks like him!


The Dude, character in the Big Lebowski and was played by Jeff Bridges

for a look at the humorous odd stuff found around Texas, look over at "Caught at the Curb"

Where do maniacs learn such hideous custom techniques?
This immediately reminded me of this nut with a 90's Mustang http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-h-who-does-this-to-new-mustang.html

http://caughtatthecurb.blogspot.com/ is the new blog, just got started this month and if you've got something that needs to be shared for the mutual amusement: caughtatthecurb@gmail.com

California Smog test... not much interested in tailpipe emissions

If you have had a jump start, replaced your battery, or removed your battery to replace engine parts like I did yesterday, your newer model vehicles with computers will have lost some memory that the smopg test requires as so important, you fail the smog test

What the hell is so essential about the computer memory of my Grand Am? How much time I've spent over the speed limit? How much I've spun the tires to the extent the computer kicks in the idiot light for "Loss of traction" ?

The smog test guy tells me that it's the history of the computer tuning the fuel and exhaust parts that can vary to keep the emissions clean.

I told him that if the emission out the muffler is clean it is good enough for me. I have to come back once I've added a lot of miles to the history of the computer, so the state of California can see that my car doesn't have to work too much to keep the emissions in check
