The argument that Sky tries to make falls apart when you ask why he cares so much. It doesn't affect him, and it's not up to him to decide how others behave. The problem is a manufactured one, and he's trying *very hard* to maintain it. This isn't 2008. Sky's arguments are from a time that no longer exists. …

I still manage to nick myself at least every 2-3 months, despite 25-30 years practice. I think the reason they bleed forever is the shallowness of the cut; you're taken out a bunch of capillaries, but no larger vessels, so the clotting process takes longer to get going. There's not enough biochemical signal to start…

I remember watching the coverage of the 2008 election (American politics is a favourite spectator sport up here in Canuckistan), and when the results came in for Virginia, I shouted at the TV, "He won Virginia?! Obama won Virginia!?!". I was completely blown away.

Ugh. I remember reading something, an interview with up-and-coming actresses in Hollywood, and how they all fudged their measurements and dress size on their CV's. For no other reason than the fact that the (usually male) casting director would not even look at anyone over 125 pds, regardless of their height or…

Orange kitties are awesome!!

Toxins can be products of ordinary metabolism (such as lactic acid), can be produced to kill or immobilize prey (such as the toxins in snake venom), or can be produced for self-defense (such as the cyanide produced by several plants).

Thank you for sharing that Ebert review; I don't remember seeing it before. I especially love this paragraph:

k, all I can think about is that episode of Farscape when the bad alien stuck a giant needle in everyone's eye ew ew ew ew ew......

Sigh.

I second this.

If it's wrong, then I don't wanna be right.

k, I think you missed the part where the food deliveries from 4chan were going to the writer's old address. Which means they followed through on their threat, they were just not up to date on her whereabouts. She called the cops out of concern for the people living in her old place.

KHHHAAAAAAAANNNNNNN!!!!

Now I have 'Closer to the heart' ear-worming through my brain. Thanks!

"hey man, what you're thinking about doing is so fucking wrong, don't fucking do it"?
