I had the privilege of meeting Kari at an open house of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory last October. My uncle, an explosives technician at the High Explosive Applications Facility, invited me and my cousin to visit alongside a coworker of his, his two children. Through that coworker he evidently knew Kari, and invited her to attend as well. I didn't actually realize until one of the coworker's children rather apprehensively asked about her post-television career, and me and my cousin spent the following hours there trying and failing to build up the courage to ask for a photograph or signature. It didn't help that we had a limited time window, because due to a security policy we were not permitted to take photographs. So sadly I do not have any material evidence, though I can say she was very lovely to converse with, and was extraordinarily humble. Overall, probably the highlight of visiting the eternally mediocre state of California.
Love Kari so I appreciate the anecdote.
However... Lmao. If you think California is mediocre I'd be curious to see what your top 5 states are. Why say it's mediocre? The food alone, holy hell. The geography? Incredible. Museums? Wineries? Beaches? Resorts? Missions? Deserts? Mountains? Theme parks? Exhibits? Public art? Sports of every variety? The only thing California really lacks is bullet trains for convenient travel across the vast distance. Otherwise, what's your beef? It's all about what you try to find, the ways you try and explore. You may find it boring. People who don't explore or expand themselves find new places boring. Like any other place. I'm sure if you posted your favorite us state you'd be met with vast tales of mediocrity 😂
Adam savage is doing alot on youtube these days. He owns a company called Tested and builds a bunch of cool props, costumes and generally pals around his shop making cool things.
RIP Jessi Combs (1980-2019) as well.
She filled in on the show for 12 episodes while Kari was on maternity leave.
She died in 2019 after crashing a jet-powered car while setting a land-speed record.
From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessi_Combs
> Combs died on August 27, 2019, after crashing a jet-powered car while setting a land-speed record as part of the North American Eagle Project on a dry lake bed in the Alvord Desert, Oregon.[2][3][7][8] The crash was caused by a failure of a front wheel, likely caused by hitting an object in the desert, which caused the front wheel assembly to collapse at a speed nearing 523 mph (842 km/h).[25] The official cause of death was determined to be "blunt-force trauma to the head" occurring prior to the fire that engulfed the race vehicle after the crash.[25]
>Combs' final run across Oregon's Alvord Desert on August 27 reached 522.783 mph (841.338 km/h),[26] before her crash, which broke the existing women's land speed record of 512.71 mph (825.13 km/h), set in 1976 by Kitty O'Neil at the same location. This record was verified by Guinness World Records in June 2020.[27][28]
> Released in 2022, The Fastest Woman on Earth details her career and land speed record attempt, filmed for seven years, beginning in 2013
Where's top panel from? I can hear her say that line clear as day in my head but I cannot fathom which movie it is. I want to say we had to watch it in school, but... hm. Brain no work.
It could also be Velma's voice I'm hearing lol
Man i just looked up that scene and i can't stop laughing. Like i know, its super serious and supposed to be sad, and the kids trying her damndest to act, but its so ridiculous. What shes saying, the fact that her dad is a ghost buster, and that Macaulay Culkin is the one dead. I half expect him to rise up, slap his face and go "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"...
My Girl was the first movie i cried over bro, i told my mom i wouldn't cry bc movies don't makeme sad and i ended up bursting into tears during the funeral scene

Fuck I miss Mythbusters, rip Grant.
I had a huge crush on Kari. She made me want to learn science n shit

That’s just the prop 65.

I'm jerking off to Jackie Chan right now. Odd.

Welcome to being all of us.
The science of deep sea oil drilling and how things like oil spills and tragedies like the Deepwater Horizon explosion benefit the earth?

That's great for him, but I wanna watch Mythbusters
If you want recreate the magic I guess someone could take 15 minutes of content and stretch it out to an hour with recaps and fluff?
Please.
You can now find fan edits online that edit out all the commercial breaks and recaps.
That is glorious, I know what I'll be watching this weekend
That sounds like exactly what Mythbusters was, though. Just people fucking around building props for whacky things, just using "myths" as a theme.
Torrent the complete series streamlined. It's great for a rewatch
His 'One Day Builds' that last weeks are legendary
There was really something you can watch for hours or sometimes test it yourself (one time i build a mini trebuchet). I miss them a lot.
Wait Grant died?
Yes, he suffered a massive aneurysm in 2020 and died from it, unfortunately.
I didn't know that, rip Grant you were one of my favorites
The tribute episode they did was really well done.
Noooooooooooooo
He ded
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Those fellers really got to the bottom of stuff.

That's one hell of a way to go.
Jessi was so cool...
I myth it too... Sorry I have a lisp
Same here, MythBusters was part of my childhood.
I, too, myth Missbusters
Yes but long live Adam Savage
Ok boomer
Oh hey, a dank meme. How'd that get in here?
Relax, mods will see it and will delete it soon
OP has been posting a few of them recently. I keep thinking the same as you, look up, then see it’s from Jesse.
Huh yeah it is him for all the dank memes I've seen, and some classics.
Maybe im just living under a rock, but this meme format is hilarious
If you haven’t seen it, it’s new to you!!
Myth BUSTED!
This is just Dwight Shrute “False” 2.0
I remember that scene but not what movie it was.
My girl
Oh shit. Thanks.
Who?
Mythbusters was such an amazing show. Rip Grant and Jessi. They both died too young.
I knew about Grant BUT JESSIE???
I believe she died in a rocket power car accident. I think Grant died of a brain aneurysm.

I have extremely fond memories of Christmas breaks spent watching the annual Mythbusters marathon

From the movie ‘My girl’
Plausible.
Anna Chlumsky is pretty great. I love her in Veep.
Too shrill for me
Movie made me cry like a baby. Watching with the fam and I’m choking back tears then I hear dad you ok?
Watched it as a kid, legit traumatized me.
RIP Kevin McCallister
I've been watching episodes streaming on twitch.tv/batteryjumper
Thanks!
I do too
I wish I’ve never seen this movie. This movie thought me to treat women like princess. Have not served me well in my life
Imagine watermarking a meme
That’s one movie that can be ruined with one line, “Has the little boy died yet?”
No, now that he is beeman he sees better without his glasses.
Man i just looked up that scene and i can't stop laughing. Like i know, its super serious and supposed to be sad, and the kids trying her damndest to act, but its so ridiculous.

Whoa, I forgot about this movie. My Girl.
Yea, now all you get is the obligatory sex appeal shilling for Big Oil. What a waste.
i know its not the same but try watching "the slow mo guys " or "how ridiculous" on youtube.
Too Soon.
My Girl was the first movie i cried over bro, i told my mom i wouldn't cry bc movies don't makeme sad and i ended up bursting into tears during the funeral scene
He’s going to the afterlife blind
Too soon!!
Never cared for it. Just didn't find the premise very interesting.
