Flareon is not a Pokémon; it is part of the Dome Alliance and a traitor.

Yeah, Twitch must be earning a fair bit. And the creator has received a "partnership"; I don't have any idea what that entails, though.

...and the Select button has been disabled to prevent that from happening again.

I think you're probably referring to this story: http://www.snopes.com/humor/iftrue/k…

Yes, the way they talk about female Gorn always throws me off a bit.

Balder Dash? It seems somebody's been reading my My Little Pony + Norse Mythology crossover fanfics :)

Silly filmmakers! Evil smurfs are supposed to be bla... ...purple!

That'd be the case if the planet had the same radius as Earth. However, a planet with 2.4 times Earth's mass and 1.55 times Earth's radius would have about the same surface gravity as Earth.

Aragorn has his own brand. He killed lots of orcs with it.

Judging by the robes, the "chess game" description, the character's obsession with "revenge"... ...I'd say it's *definitely* a Landru Noonien Mitchell of Izar!

Most of them are going to die without ever experiencing life as a diploid! Who *wouldn't* be blue?

I stay away from sci-fi pick-up lines, ever since that time when I tried to compliment a girl on her ugly, giant bags of mostly water.

It strikes me that people, upon close contact with whales, make sounds not unlike those made by dolphins.

It may seem intuitive, but I'm assuming that actually doing the math can help scientists understand how probable it is that life will form on a given planet. (Admittedly, there's a bit of a sampling bias, but one works with what one has, eh?)

I'm certainly not going to argue against the "don't be smug about it" part; Wheaton's Law holds because Wheaton's Law holds.

I don't read corpore-metal's post as criticizing NASA's scientists; more as a reminder to curb one's enthusiasm when reading pop science articles.

I campaigned for (read: "joked to some friends about") naming Sweden's new princess "Dovahkiin". It sounds awesome, and she could have had "The Song of the Dragonborn" as her royal theme (much cooler than the one we've currently got)!

For the record, I know quite a few perfectly nice cocksuckers who love Gangnam Style.
