I meant the ancient Romans, not the modern ones.

I think the unsolved waste problem is the biggest stumbling block. How do we build containment that will be safe and intact for 100,000 years? Most of the stuff we build these days doesn't even last a century... Where are those Romans when you need them.

I saw that and was very excited until I found out that my myopia is too great for it to work on me. :(

I'm talking about all the people going JUST EAT LESS AND EXERCISE MORE, THAT'S THE ONLY WAY B/C THAT'S WHAT I WAS TAUGHT AND IF YOU EAT THAT WAY YOU WILL DIE HORRIBLY.

Sadly, most of these don't work on other-language versions of Google. Google will give me the Swedish version by default and then all the cool easter eggs are nowhere to be found. :\

I think the key point here is: what is making these skeletons cohere and move about? Because usually those things require muscles and ligaments and other stuff that is no longer present in a bare skeleton. Anything that can make a bare skeleton do those things is probably not vulnerable to a gunshot. You need to find…

Um... skeletons don't really have genitals... Also, not all skeletons were once male.

Thanks for this. I used to be a veggie for ethical reasons, but had to abandon the diet for health reasons after 19 years. I try to stick to grass-fed meat and fish, and it relieves me to hear that this might actually be beneficial to the global environment.

Wow, people get really touchy about having their long-learned ideas about food and diet challenged, don't they? (reading the comments...)

TARDISes, since it's an acronym.

I think they were just bullshitting. :)

Well, geographically speaking, only Denmark, Sweden and Norway are considered Scandinavian, although we usually extend it to Finland as well, out of courtesy (and a common history). :) In Scandinavia, we refer to the five nations as the Nordic countries.

The UK joining the United States?

They make honey, so that they can eat it later. They don't actually make the honey for us and random bears to steal, out of the goodness of their little bee hearts. They make it because they need it themselves.

Word.

For me it says that the clip has been removed by the uploader. Still sucks.

It might, in a few million years or so. We just won't be around to see it.

Well, the city where I live celebrated its first millennium a few years back, so everything is relative. :)

Unfortunately, they can't afford real Elf actors. Also, the logistics are a nightmare what with Valinor being off the straight road these days.

I love reading them because of the names that crop up. "Byron Darling", for instance. What a name.
