Yeah I like this remix a lot too.

[Hanslanda]

I feel like Eminem in the song Superman. All sweet and charming, then suddenly an amoral, cruel motherfucker.

I once had a glass of milk fresh out of the microwave explode in my face. Not the glass, just the milk. As I added sugar.

I once watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream; that's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight razor... and surviving.

That was beautiful and slightly unsettling.

... you've never seen Apocalypse Now? 

...Oh. 
I might be due for a re-watch. It had some excellent dialogue.

[hector13]

In the haze between not quite being asleep and waking up this morning, I started singing the last verse of the Worms Armageddon theme in my head, and promptly woke up from the awesomeness of the situation.

[ChairmanPoo]

Well to be fair cheetahs arent a big deal. I mean they are the size of a medium dog. But it's not a good idea to harass any kind of wild animal imho

[Frumple]

... well, size of a medium dog, built rather differently than a canine, and iirc regularly hunts things larger than them size wise. Wouldn't judge their threat based on size. That's how you get a face full of medium sized dog equivalent feline tearing off your previous skinmeats as it tries to bring you down/snap your neck.

[Hanslanda]

It's like saying, "Xenomorphs are barely bigger than a person. They shouldn't be that dangerous."

Size is not the only indicator of a threat. Irukandji are nearly microscopic, but they will make you wish you only died a long horrible death, rather than face the impossible and unending agony they inflict on you.

[ChairmanPoo]

It's not a xenomorph. It's a cheetah. So I stand by my original comment

[Hanslanda]

I was making an analogy. Do I need to post a passive-aggressive link to the definition of analogy, or can we have a normal conversation?

[ChairmanPoo]

I don't agree with the analogy. If you click on the link you'll find out why.

[Hanslanda]

I did. I think my analogy is still accurate. You said cheetahs weren't that big a deal, then referenced their size. I made two analogies between size and danger, referencing the fact that size doesn't (always) correlate directly to danger. Whether or not cheetahs are aggressive towards humans is irrelevant. They are still fully capable of doing serious damage to us despite their slight build. Which was the point I was trying to make, while echoing Frumple's statement.

[ChairmanPoo]

I don't think they are a bigger deal than a similarly sized dog. Which can also cause serious damage, granted. But the core of the statement stands: while overall it's a bad idea to harass any wild animal (or nonwild for that matter), facing a cheetah is nowhere near facing a tiger or a lion in the Darwin award scale.  If it was one on one it might be better to face a cheetah than an angry St Bernard.

[Hanslanda]

Ah I see your argument in greater detail and now we are agreed.

That said, have you read about that guy that got attacked by a leopard and choked it to death with his fist? Bad. Ass.

[Yoink]

I'm only impressed if he did it from the inside.   

[Hanslanda]

The leopard bit his hand. So he shoved it down it's throat to the elbow. He's on Badassoftheweek.com somewhere.
