@avclub-2dd78e6d27abfc8092491a5b76d415fa:disqus , as the most attractive male to mangle a Futurama quote, will be snu-snu'd by the most beautiful women of the AV Club.

Citation?  My understanding is that the danger of the vacuum stems from dessication, not overinflation.  The reduced pressure lowers the boiling point of water well within human body temperature, so all the moisture in your body evaporates.  You can survive deep dives because the water in your cells is incompressible,…

Right here?  Now?

Served rare and bony.  You pick the bones out with your throat.

The actual film (seen here) is ever so slightly less preposterous than the legend makes it out to be.  It presents its murdered lemmings (purchased from local Indian children keeping them as pets) as delusional rather than outright suicidal.  It's still factually wrong, and the way they got the footage is still…

Oh you.

…damn fool.

I love you!

Ab-SOAR-kuh is the closest thing to an official pronunciation, with "ab-SOAR-kee" getting the minority vote.

I can't see a tracking shot of Valles Caldera and convince myself it's Wyoming.  I like the Santa Fe scenery just fine, but I don't get why they can't film in WY.

According to the backpacking book on my lap, which quotes Purification of Wilderness Waters by David Cooney, two minutes at 77* C is fatal to any cyst, let alone bacteria.  It's true, 95 F won't kill anything, so that has to be Celsius.

Yes, the Virginia had more guns than the Monitor, but it's not as clear-cut as it sounds.  As was typical with pre-Monitor warships, the Virginia's cannons were all pointed out in different directions; engaging a ship off the port bow used one gun, and they had to switch to a different one if the geometry of the…

It was dug out of the silt in 27 feet of water at the mouth of Charleston Harbor.

C'mon, no respect for the POTUS with superpowers that shoots aliens naked from Saints Row 4?

When I was two there was a tidal wave and…….ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh……
…that monkey is going to pay.

The agility of that very big man never ceases to amaze me.

OBLIGATORY RESPONSE TO ADBLOCK-RELATED POST: Dear AV Club, if you ditch the horrible pop-up ads that make your site unusable, I will stop adblocking you, restore your ability to make me look at banner ads, and you can make money off me again.  Thank you.

"Dig Your Own Grave" for me.

"Solar=photovoltaic" is the biggest flaw with the arguments against solar.  The most efficient solar energy systems use reflected solar heat to power a heat engine.  It's not without its flaws— it still takes up a lot of space, and doesn't fit on a suburban rooftop like a PV panel does— but it's apparently about as…
