Default Things Go Wrong When This Corvette Starts Doing Donuts



You can tell from the start of the drone video that the driver of this Corvette possesses a certain lack of skill, and with the crowd being so close, you can already see what's about to happen.

Read the rest on the Corvette Forum homepage. >>

That's what he gets for tossing a road flare into the party.

All I see is a video full of idiots. Both in and out of the corvette. Luckily only one idiot had bad luck that day.

"Let me do donuts. I'm good enough to control them around a large crowd of people."

"Oh, there's a car doing donuts in the street. Let's all stand around and watch really close. Cars doing donuts have never been out of control."

I watched the video and it's hard to decide who is the biggest idiot there. The moron spinning donuts, the dope trying to toss in a road flare or the really cool commentator who is trying to explain who was at fault. It's your entire generation, bozo!

Really? What a broad statement full of hate there. Just piping full of hot ignorance.

Not only do you not know what generation any of these people are from, but you cannot make a claim that an entire generation is ___________. You should step away from life pretentious.

Among millennials as compared to the previous generation:

Teen pregnancy rates, teen sex rates, and abortion rates are down,
crime rates are down,
tobacco use is down,
Divorce rates are down,
college education rates are up,
personal savings rates are up,
worker productivity is up,
wages are down.

Viral videos are just anecdotes.

Not sure how you can single out a generation from this drone video at 10 stories but definitely some low IQ and possible missing chromosomes!!

This is true.....instead, the millennials are keeping themselves occupied with their hopes, dreams, aspirations, instagram selfies, fighting for transgender bathroom rights, and all that other world saving/inspirational stuff.

Social media rants, like viral videos, are also just anecdotes.

Well my generation did some fighting to during the 60's on a couple of fronts.

Every generation tries to change society for the better in their minds.

I will say though that life isn't as good as it was during the time right after WWll up to the mid 60's

The kids today are just bombarded with too much information and just do not get to imagine as we did growing up.

They do not get out enough and have a cell phone permanently attached to their hands.

I am with my grandkids a lot and we play outside as much as possible.

They do have access to the computer but on a controlled basis.

Both boys and the girl would rather be outside anyway.

They are have advanced athletic skill so far and are competitive as all get out yet do very well in school too.

Really I feel bad for the generations following mine, life seems to be so much more difficult.
