I like the idea of having one species be the ancestor of every species on a planet, with visible marks to show it.

Like, if moose are the ancestor, everything has antlers! ANTLERS!

[LordSlowpoke]

That's how the universe will end.

also. we really failed to have any spambots for over a week? what the christ

[MonkeyHead]

No, there have been many, many spam threads (for movie streaming sites) this last few days.

The only batman who can beat Cthulhu is Adam West, who carries Bat-Great Old One repellent on his utility belt.

Can't argue with that logic.

So once again from the "It has to be true, because I couldn't make this crap up," file.

A man who was very possibly high and wanting to shoplift hid from police in a dumpster. It was trash day.... He got compacted with the trash in the back of the garbage truck....

Read the case. Even if you don't understand the legalese. It's worth it.

"Ohio, pretty much, yeah...."

I am trying to take what I consider a DF modding molestone and add my first advanced interaction, but its failing pretty hard.  Ive searched here and on the wiki: my raw is practicly identical to someoffered, and in many cases I replaced my syndrome with anothers to no avail.  Maybe the arena hates me.  I only want to make crazed or opposedtolife dwarfs.

post it

EDIT: Not sure if the arena is the best avenue for exploration of loyalty-confused creatures...

Somehow, today, I managed to get out of two assignments I was dreading.  The first was a Biology test that we were going to take last week but weren't due to various reasons.  The second is an English assignment that we were able to postpone for almost a week.  Things never turn out this well.

Only got through the first part before the legalese got to me.  This is worse then the McDonalds women.  There the women at least had some validity.  But this?  If my shaky understanding of that is true, then a trial court actually acknowledge his case had merit?

Well not exactly.

The trial court told the guy no. He appealed. The appellate (appeals) court said the trial court was right to tell him to go away.
So basically he lost in his case against the garbage truck and company twice. 

It actually isn't nuts and most lawsuits that get this far aren't. Frankly, the McDonalds hot coffee case was right. Sure, coffee is supposed to be hot, but it isn't supposed to be 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Somebody's gonna get burned from that and there was a temperature gauge so they knew it was too hot and could've just turned it down a bit.

The question is, "do they have to check and see if anybody's in there before they compact the trash?" The answer here seems to have been "no they don't." I dunno. I could see a homeless person living in a dumpster.

Zoidberg himself confesses to "living in a dumpster" in 3011, supposedly the Planet Express building dumpster.

One day there's going to be a trash compacted space lobster and then aren't you going to feel terrible?

Of course I'd feel terrible.  That's some good lobster that I'll be missing out on. 
For some reason I thought it said that the trial court approved it or something.

Hey, mother Nature. Can I ask you for something? QUIT IT WITH THE WEATHER. First Storms for a week, then the hottest weather all year for a week, then more storms, Consider, maybe, mixing it up a little?

[Slayerhero90]

So I start to draw something on paper, being extra careful about it, when I want to erase something. Guess what! My eraser's wet for reasons I don't know, damaging the paper so that I can't draw on it and have to flip to a new page!

Ate some pizza that was about 2 weeks old. Currently not doubled over in severe pain. Interesting.

Watched Resident Evil: retribution the other day.

I just realised they break the laws of physics. At the end...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

That woman (can't remember her name) injects herself with the las plagos parasite, and can heal incredibly fast without needing masses of sustenance. This indicates the las plagos parasite has perpetual motion machines in them, or creates perpetual motion machines in cells.

By this logic, there's no need to reclaim earth. Inject a few people with las plagos, set them on fire, and fuel a spaceship with their eternally burning bodies.

If you've played Resident Evil 4, that's already done with the Regenerators. It's explained in a file that they have such metabolism that they can basically regenerate from anything but a direct hit with a large explosive(rocket launcher or grenade), although the Chicago Typewriter can kill them with enough dakka.

Spoiler: Another thing about those Regenerators bothered me (click to show/hide)

Supposedly, they're rendered immobile/incapacited by extremely cold temperatures(your first one is in a frozen room... that you warm up to get a key item), but you use a thermal scope to see the Plagas inside that you have to shoot. Does that mean that the Plagas are endotherms? Shouldn't they still be able to move the surrounding biomass? Or is that biomass made up of so much water that it freezes(that would explain the regeneration)? Or is it possible that the Plagas are exothermic, and the only reason they light up on a thermal scope is because the creature they inhabit is colder still?

I just realized something stupid about other people in my school. They use tons of curses in their conversations, and yet they seem surprised when a teacher or someone included in a lesson somehow says a curse.
