Can't make that lift, bro?
She can't see it from there, so...
Towel off...no sweat.

Can You Drive a Ford Fiesta Through a Desert?
I’m flying down the B1 highway from Windhoek to Keetmanshoop with a map and a boot full of camping gear. I’m excited for the first stop of my Namibian road trip: the Quiver Tree Forest. I spot the sign and turn onto the C17, off the tarmac and onto the gravel. I’ll be there soon; it’s only ten miles or so. I am unprepared for what comes next. The car slides and slips across the road. I am not fully in control anymore. I slow to a crawl. The car judders and shudders, the noise deafening, the vibrations rattling the teeth in my skull. It takes me around an hour to drive the ten miles. I arrive at the campsite relieved to be in one piece, even if it feels like all my bones have been shaken slightly out of place. I will later learn that this is what happens when the gravel road becomes “corrugated”, and that the roads authority goes round once a week to “grade” them. Seems I arrived about 6 days after the grader had last been round.

Hahaha love this! It brings back fun memories of my friend and I spotting a certain type of gym goer at our local!
Gym posers...too many of them load a bar and snap a picture
Does he really intend to lift that? Oh, he just posed for the pic. Cause, geez.
Hahah!! Is this a real thing? This made me smile, thanks for that! 😅
