Reminds me of the Smoke Ring in Larry Niven’s The Integral Trees.

Based on the pictures, I suspect that was supposed to be 0.6 inches.

I was going to say something exactly like this. Once they reveled that nugget of info, I thought that explains so much about Tucker. A vile pile of shit doesn’t fall far from the asshole it dropped from.

One of the problems is the the spread of coywolf hybrids. The attempts throughout the 1800s to eradicate wolves in the US, allowed the coyotes to break out of their historical ranges in the southwest and spread through almost all of North America. That brought them in contact with the few remaining groups of eastern…

No. It was was last year that they bought the team. It was just yesterday that the article was published where they explained why.

And the clown doll from Poltergeist. He never gets the props he deserves.

It is a fact that above ground pools will not increase the value of your property. This is due to the fact that they are temporary structures to begin with. And it can reduce the value of the home. So if you’re planning to sell, it might be a good idea to take down any above ground pool first.

Also, your insurance company will insist that you take certain steps when you install a pool that will reduce your chance of incurring liability. This is why nearly every pool is in a yard with a privacy fence around it. It’s not (just) so the owners can skinny-dip. It’s so other people can’t see the pool and be…

Yeah, even back when I was a little kid in the ‘70s, it seemed weird that on TV shows people were expected to invite their bosses home for dinner. Yet I’d never heard of that in real life.

Same here. I’ve never even had a Slurpee! But it’s just a shaved ice, right?

It comes out of the microwave rubbery if you heat it up on high. But if you heat it on a lower setting (on mine I use the med/low setting, between medium and low) it comes out perfect.

It’s part of the Farmville extension in Venmo.

It all depends on whether you are referring to, “the time after which people became illiterate morons,” in which case “since” is correct. Or, “due to the fact that people are illiterate morons,” in which case “because” would be preferable.

I remember eating peanut butter & butter sandwiches as a kid. But for some reason it just doesn’t seem appetizing at this point in my life. I think we got the idea from either my mother or grandmother as an example of something they ate when they were young and couldn’t afford a lot.

I prefer the Axolotl song. “I drank a little, then a lotl, I necked the whole ungodly brew.”

There’s also a bit of Warm Bodies mixed in, where they find out that the zombies trapped behind the barrier are not the mindless revenants that the government has been telling people.

Yeah, he needs to get a dispenser if he still wants to supply free candy. Yes, there could still be an issue with the handle/button/actuator but people can get around that easily by using a tissue or napkin on their hand to activate the dispensing.

Well this actually would work if you pay off your card each month as well. You’re increasing the chance that the amount reported on the closing date is either zero, or closer to zero than it would be if you waited till the end of the monthly period to pay it off.

Prior to the importation of the fruit from Asia (via France), there was no color named orange in English. The color was named for the fruit. That color had previously been considered a shade of yellow.
