Spoiler: Count how many seconds it takes you to figure out what's wrong here. (click to show/hide)

Aside from the fact that it looks like it just got pulled out of a mudhole, I got nothing.

The image name says "russian-tank.jpg", but it has German markings. It's too dirty for me to tell whether it's German or Russian, though.

It's a T-34 (or a close cousin), hence my confusion over the Iron Cross painted on it. I'm assuming that the Germans captured it and used it at some point, probably late in the war.

<Japa> Hey Tsu_snooze, you know about tanks, right? Can you tell me what's wrong with this picture? http://stuffucanuse.com/History/russian-tank.jpg
<Tsu_snooze> Soviet tank with german marking
<Japa> You /do/ know about tanks.
<Japa> I had to be told
<Chloe> did it get left in a lake or something?
<Tsu_snooze> Specifically, a T-34 series tank. The model with the all cast turret. From the size of the gun recoil buffer... Probably the T-34-85
<Tsu_snooze> My bad. Its the model with the cast turret but the same 75mm gun Makes it a 1943 model

So I get this fairly high level felony dismissed at the muni court level. Let me explain, that is incredibly difficult to do. I've seen that done exactly once before.... We were talking something in the range of 1 to 5 years and up to a $10,000 fine, potentially. I don't think I could do that again.

I'm freaking ecstatic. I think this is wonderful. Holy crap. I call the guy up. Do you know what his response is? He bitches about how he had to spend a couple days in jail (before I got involved)....

  ... ...  ... 

Not even a thank you....

You know what? Whatever.... Satisfaction most definitely not guaranteed. Are you kidding? Come on man, dismissed! Really? How does that not make you happy? What more am I supposed to do? Really? Should I go back in time and make it so somehow the police never arrested you for that? Where is my booze?

One more individual for the list of "people who need their face introduced to a blunt object".

Gee, a few days in jail compared to a few years in prison? Be happy you only had to do the former instead of the latter, jackass.

-story of ungrateful clients snop-

You should clearly have got a time machine and tell yourself not to take that case, because the client is an idiot.

Clearly.

Apparently TVTropes considers Dwarf Fortress to be a webcomic in addition to a game.

There's a red spot in my eye. It's kind of freaking me out :S

Did you hit that eye recently?

I did it once, and a little red spot appeared. I think it was bleeding a bit under the cornea.

I don't think so, but it seems to be going away so that's good.

Let me check...

I love that page, especially the jump from the year 2280 to 500,000,000 in future predictions. No one can think on a thousand year scale apparently.

[penguinofhonor]

Nobody has predicted 3000 yet? Man, after 1000 and 2000 I feel like it'd be a freebie.

They've missed quite a few. Hal Lindsey predicted at least 4 different dates between 1980 and 2000, and he's not the only one not on the list.

Eehh, no worries poh. It'll get its share of things once the next millennium starts getting closer. Folks gotta' get their eschatological hard on raging, after all, and round numbers like that gets the ol'motor running for some silly reason. Someone should make a calendar that goes in tens just to screw with people. ~Three hundred days in a month sounds kinda' amusing anyway, heh.

I noticed that after the 2280 point it turns into actual scientific reasons. Which goes a fair way to explanation.

Let me check...

When the end failed to occur as he had predicted on December 23, Jeffs blamed it on his followers' "lack of faith", and moved the prediction to December 31.

...
Well thank god for heretics!

[Graknorke]

Let me check...

I think it's great how obvious the line where the scientific ones begin is.

I just spent 5 hours next to a goup of extremely high 60 year-olds.

That sounds awesome.

Xantalos, please don't let the universe's expansion kill itself. You won't have things to kill if that happens.
