What Scares You The Most?

Becoming someone else’s long-pork meal.

Driving on the interstate with 18 wheelers and crazy drivers. I don’t fly anymore after working in aviation for 9 yrs.
Waking up while driving. Sharks, pit bulls, rottweilers, black widows, alligators, wild hogs, and crazy people. :wink:

Pit bulls in general, but most scary are the taser-proof pit bulls: https://denver.cbslocal.com/2021/10/13/pit-bull-taser-dog-attack-fort-lupton/

Oh well, that's what guns are for.

Was the pit bull wearing rubberized booties? Maybe the pit bull had no connection to ground? Maybe police have to tase hundreds of pit bulls daily, so after a few years, the breed becomes taser resistant? We have MRSA, so do we now have TRPB? Or maybe the pit bull has been tased a few times already, so it developed immunity?

It really scares me when the majority trust what the government and MSM tell them.

Downshift to slow the car down and use the parking brake (though it will cause rear wheel skids at high speeds, something not for novices, use it to come to a full stop when you are already slowed down).

If you drive a standard then you should have experience with downshifting, if you drive an automatic then practice it, dropping 1-2 gears at a time.
Not good for the engine long term to use excessively but in an emergency situation it can save your life.

:+1: Yep …… simply amazing how stupid the majority has become.
Ive always considered myself a good judge of people……. thats why I dont like them.

I agree but for opposite reasons. The fringe media has become the MSM.

……. and still the subjective ‘majority’ continues to ignore ‘The fringe’ when it reports objectively…… go figure :beer: :person_facepalming: :beer: :beer:

“objectively” is the key word.

Now I’m thoroughly confused…

I agree…… with both of you

Impropper grammer.

…by me.

Except for CVTs, useless with engine braking they just wait for computer input and over rev lol.

Could end out like this.

Ohhh, scary dolls kinda freak me out too. Yeah innocent and fun for tiny tots but man do some of them look creepy!

:laughing:

That reminds me of someone who was interviewed after a natural disaster. They said the scariest thing was when a person showed up and said "I'm from the government and I'm here to help".

Thats an exceptional case, a highly modified car that had a failure due to one of its modifications.

Though interesting that downshifting did nothing (plus proving its not a CVT), if a brake fire instantly burned the valves leading to no engine compression thats even more unusual. Even igniting a fuel line should not have killed engine compression that quickly.
Plus there should be two systems, one front one rear brakes. And the e-brake should have worked assuming its a cable on the rear wheels like most cars. But being an Audi it could be a lock on the front wheels and not cabled hence disabled.

Finals my last year as an undergrad. Got in the car and no brakes. - I was still in the driveway so nothing terrible happened.

My wife—-When she’s shopping on-line :money_mouth_face:

The Audi would be worse i think its a DCT but with how much power its running it could be a racing box and yea most likely an actual ebrake (electric park brake) another junk feature lol. Its also 4wd which should slow the car down faster but most likely blew the box and the car just free rolled…
