The plot was shit and I couldn't help thinking "that's it?"

Book spoilers/predictions:

My end game prediction: Dany will team up with John, Stannis, the Night's Watch, and others to defeat the Others and end the war over the Seven Kingdom's crown. With the Others defeated (and most likely wall brought down), the Night's Watch will be disbanded.

dude was so hot he got kicked out of his country. Brad Pitt didn't get kicked out of America!

The guy got his inspiration after watching a YouTube video about corks/bottles/bags!

Come on, man! You can't leave this one out!

I think the Rainbow Brite as a serial killer was pretty awesome too.

She-Ra fighting Aunt Flo AND all the town bullies at once...

I think Ben Kingsley should play Trevor playing another character in every movie from now.

Exactly.

Visible from space is a horrible abused term. Try to find the great wall of china looking out the window of the ISS, I bet you can't.

SO, we say "well yes, but pictures taken from space show it" right, with zoom lenses, some of them just ABSURDLY powerful, so, if we want to factor in that, why can't we say…

Why not turn off all notifications on all games.... I turned off mine a long time ago and never looked back.

Not to take away from this study, but people have been implanting memories - in humans - for a long time. Look at Elizabeth Loftus' work on false memory, for example.

Food is not sold only to feed people, but to create some jobs (production to distribution), to…

So she shouldn't be able to wear what she wants simply because it was designed by men to be sexual? I guess I should pack up my Victoria's Secret bras since the store was originally designed for men to buy gifts for their wives. I guess all underwear actually should go, really, since they're not granny panties. Any…

I was about to post some additional facts for you, but realized I was thinking of LAGEO-1. Still a cool tidbit — It is expected to remain in orbit for 8.4 million years and carries a plaque depicting the continental arrangement 268 million years ago, at the time of launch, and 8 million years in the future. There is…

read it a month ago. loved it.

Foundation. It relies on basic truths about human nature, as opposed to futuristic technology and technobabble. Also, the first novel is compact and efficient from a narrative standpoint, making it highly readable, even now.

They should really focus on large shrubs with dense foliage to maximize the space usage. Something like small evergreen varietals. Green all year, doesn't need as much soil as a tall tree. Or just focus on large gardens in the central part of the building and creatively channel light there. I could see a large…
