There are no useless spells, just unimaginative wizards.

“We can rebuild him, we have the technology...”

Voyager 2 is demanding mileage compensation.

Gone seeking self, or equivalent thereof.

Free doomsday machine. Only used once.

There’s two ways this could be done without batteries being needed, both with currently available technology.

Until I remembered which title this was from I was wondering why Archie had three nipples. And all on the left side.

I'm not entirely convinced that the MCU version of Hawkeye is non-powered. I keep remembering the bit near the beginning of The Avengers where he tells Nick Fury "I see better at a distance, sir." Granted, the comics character has always officially been non-powered, but it's also within the realm of possibility that…

I'm partial to the Leyhausen theory, myself. All the examples given seem to be ones where a cat would not be likely to want to fight. Signals that may have originally arisen for communication between cats could have been transferred to us as they became domesticated. It's like.. a Feline Friend-or-Foe System.

Wow, this brings back memories. Ages and ages ago I was running a D&D game in which one of the central elements was a Blue Dragon that was also a crimelord. They're listed as Lawful Evil so it seemed a good fit. Occasionally he would hire parties of adventurers to bump off his competitors or other disruptions to…

Honestly, I have mixed feelings about this. I preferred the early days of the show, when people were trying out all kinds of crazy things. By the end of the run, people had figured out the best winning strategies and almost everyone was copying those. It was rare to see anybody taking a risk on anything new.

I have been happily using an old Keurig B40 for years. I'm the only coffee-drinker in my house, so a single-cup option was the most practical. I use the regular K-Cups when I'm in a hurry, but I also have acquired a number of reusable options. The Keurig-made option is a hassle, requiring a great deal of assembly,…

Noodle, is that you?

Yeah, that part is what always made this story a downer for me. They stop the fighting, enjoy the holiday together, and then went right back to trying to brutally kill people that they now knew personally.

Some quick Googling, and "Parole D'Amore Sulla Sabbia" -> "Love Letters In The Sand". The best known English version having been performed by... Pat Boone.

I've heard it said that everything is a fetish for somebody. See that? -> & <- That's an ampersand. Odds are someone is aroused by that right now.

I imagine that putting a working CD drive in something that folds like that could be a sticky engineering issue, but as for the Genesis one.. with modern tech all the needed circuitry could be made smaller than a pack of gum. And not that expensive to do, either. Now THAT would be seriously cool.

Two words. Virtual Boy.

I am quite comfortable with my Nexus 5, but I have been told my hands are quite large.

Oh Tiny Joffrey, I shudder to imagine what the internet is going to do to you...
