For some reason I keep getting the urge to practice putting my gas mask on. I think it's probably that I'm just more attached to my gas mask than any other military surplus item I own.

This form is 127 pages long. These guys do not fuck around.

Found an engorged tick on the floor, presumably dropped by our cat.

After all the discussion of dicks this morning I read that as, well, you can guess what I read that as. WTF indeed.

This form is 127 pages long. These guys do not fuck around.

Is it bad that my first thought was 'how many PPP'?

[Bauglir]

You're gonna have to tell me what ppp stands for in this context. Looks like 10-point Arial or something if it's got to do with the font size.

So I've been trying out this different brand of Vietnamese instant coffee. 3-in-1, comes as a powder in individual pouches, just add hot water and out comes a surprisingly good cup of coffee. Why Vietnamese instant coffee is great when every other type of instant coffee I've tried tastes unspeakably vile I don't know, but I digress.

I made myself a cup of it this morning. Drank it. Pretty good, smells a bit different than my usual brand but tastes about the same.

Around 9 hours later, I took a shower, and when washing my hair I was suddenly hit with the strong and distinctive smell of said coffee. When I finished washing my hair, the smell had dissipated. The exact same thing happened two days ago when I tried this coffee for the first time.

I think...

I think I might be making coffee in my hair.

[Yoink]

Uh. Well. Clearly the next step is to was your hair (without shampoo, obviously!) and then trap the water as it drains out.
BAM! There's your next cup of coffee taken care of!

Or maybe it's some kind of 'Portrait of Dorian Gray'-type situation, only with your hair instead of the portrait and a nice cup of coffee instead of prolonged life. Could also explain how you get nice tasting coffee with so little actual coffee-making going on!

There was an attempt by Disney to make an animated Kingdom Hearts series back in 2002 that fell through since they didn't want to contradict the future game installments that were in the works at the time.

What. Producers caring enough about not contradicting game lore with adaptations? What is this madness?

Even more amazing is the guy being interviewed that they put in charge of the production prepared by playing through the game and absolutely loved it, and almost got kicked out of the project because he called the original script written for the pilot crap for having almost nothing to do with the feel and overarching plot of the games.

I don't see how they can justify that, if it isn't mentioned in the book? The adoption thing, I mean.

[Orange Wizard]

Wasn't there also a black guy in the film? Was he a native Brit?

[TD1]

Well, that's foolish

Who do you know that has a name like "Cho Chang" and doesn't look Asian, lol.

[Graknorke]

I don't think she mentions her parents at all.

They just seem to be unable to reconcile the idea that Cho Chang might not be a native Brit.

But she also might be? Not like being born in a different part of the world to your gene donors is impossible.

[TD1]

Then why would Rowling have called her that, both Asian sounding names, and then not specified in the book that she wasn't Asian in appearance? I don't know why an author would randomly do that, then not even tell the reader.

[Yoink]

The real Question: Why did she write so many awful books in the first place?
