You know you done fucked up when your own mother is happy you weren't home for Thanksgiving.

Dear Moms of All Politicians Everywhere,

"My god, it's full of stares!"

Reminds me of a Nicholas Winding Refn film....

Kinda-sorta. 'Moses' in Egyptian was a common name-element. It meant 'child' and was pretty much always paired with a guardian god. So Ramesses was 'Child of Ra the sun god', or Ahmose was 'Child of the Moon', Thutmose 'Child of Thoth' et cetera. (Forget that weird little pseudo-Hebrew derivation where Moses meant…

This should have absolutely no effect on my life whatsoever but still makes me kind of sad....

1- There's a dragonman in it. I'm in.

Then the Tabloids would probably just buy it off others. The way I see it, you can either go ninja and wait for the paps to inevitably party crash you, or you can invite them in, and lock them in the press room (and get some extra money for charity in the process).

Finally an honest review. I've seen the episode a few times now and while it has grown on me God does it drag in places. But after reading your review I finally realize why they wrote the episode the way they did: They're not happy with the prospect of losing all those legions of crying fangirls they gained with…

"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." To this day, especially in times of "disaster," I remember my mother's words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers – so many…

he can pull off anything he wants as far as I'm concerned

Simple Green.

Sounds like a case of being obese saving your life. It's hard to dump on the military, because we all know people in it, and personally, I've got about 1/5 the guts some of the people in the military have, but who wants to sign up for a pittance of pay to be cannon fodder for the next Republican war that is waged so…

What if actual real aliens look like shitty puppets?

"Captain's Log, Star Date 41000-and-change. Thought just occurred to me. We have spaceships that have some kind of magical doohickey that can provide a constant 1G internal gravity and compensate for acceleration of the order of, I don't know, tens or hundreds of Gs. Yet apparently none of the geniuses at Starfleet…

How come Angelina Jolie's face doesn't change?

It may not be a big deal overall, but the fact is that the behavior that you call "bugged out" was trained into the horse deliberately. If she had been startled by some random loud noise, that would just mean that she is not as bomb proof as some other horses. They are prey animals, so they react to scary loud noises.…

Came here to say this. It's entirely plausible that there simply is no way for any current civilization to figure out the "space is really fucking big" problem, and physics may simply not allow for it to be 'figured out' practically.

The faces in the video appear as caricatures of themselves. My theory then is that the brain uses data from peripheral vision first to try to recognise the most obvious features first, when trying to recognise the image. To save bandwith, basically, because there is so much data we get from the peripheria.

@shorty63136: Actually, she was ethnically Greek, as was the entire Ptolmaic dynasty she descended from. Given that they deliberately interbred in order to maintain the purity of their bloodline, it's safe to say she wasn't ethnically Egyptian.
