Small mammals don't transmit rabies because they usually don't survive an encounter with a bigger rabid mammal. The rabid squirrel is a myth... Unless said squirrel is the size of — or can go toe-to-toe with — a dog.

I've seen better days... I mean, studies. I've seen better studies.

For every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. If you kick something, you better make sure you're on a vehicle that will take the force coming back at you. #TheMoreYouKnow

I'll get on this just after I finish Kryptos (the sculpture at the CIA HQ). Kryptos might be easier since the developer of this game can mess with you for ages to come.

If I were a Hollywood executive, I would develop this film instead of all the other DC Comics and Star Wars Universe crap. This is where the money is. This is what the kids want to see nowadays.

Adolescents and young adults having their first psychotic break in 3... 2... 1...

If you need that much bed rest, there's something seriously wrong with you, and you probably won't be able to hold a real job. So... Yeah, Congress should do for you.

My dad put together a dune buggy out of old VW beetle parts. We drove it from Juarez into El Paso one day. The guy at "The Bridge" didn't know any better. He never asked if the car was legal or not. We then drove it out to Hueco Tanks and onto some sand dunes for a couple of days. Then we returned it to Mexico... It…

Yeah, but... Science.

Thimerosal is no longer included in childhood vaccines. You can even get the flu shot without it. Never mind that we've been using it since the 1930's.

I've submitted a petition to the White House to tie federal money to universal immunizations (with medical exemptions, of course): https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/issue…

Someone has a glandular problem.

My wife and I were visiting Toronto a couple of years ago. I really had to pee, so we walked over to the mall. Everything was closed. It was late on Sunday. There were several trucks and trailers parked in front of the mall. As we walked out toward those trailers, I saw Jake Gyllenhaal holding a Starbucks drink while…

There's an episode of "The Outer Limits" where humans being transported to a far away solar system are killed on Earth once their information is sent to the other planet (to balance the equation). It posed a lot of interesting ethical questions, as that show tended to do.

Yeah, but you know how pride takes over and even when you know you won't be able to pay you're like, "Look, bro, it's a loan. I'll make something out of my life and pay you back. I promise." And then you wake up two days later with a syringe in your arm and a belt around your bicep, somewhere in Baltimore, next to a…

When it comes to family, always see any "loan" to them as a gift. If you can afford to part ways with that money completely, go ahead. If not, say so and don't led them the money. It's not worth the drama to realize that they can't pay.

By that logic, we should not have humans at funerals because our very presence is evidence of the sins of all humans. What a self-righteous maroon.

My bad.

I would agree with you except that we're not dealing with ignorant people here. We are dealing with people who are giving their opinions and insinuating that they are knowledgeable about this. No one in the previous comments wrote anything to the effect that they didn't know the difference. Right off the bat, after my…

It is useful and it is not. Take, for example, the declaration of a pandemic in 2009. Epidemiologically speaking, it was indeed a pandemic. But calling it a "pandemic" made everyone expect 1918 all over again because no one ever clarified that pandemic had nothing to do with severity, only geographic spread. Then,…
