Exactly. They were worried about “Loss of crest control” if the spillway or emergency spillway eroded back to the lake this would create a low spot that water would flood out of uncontrollably, further eroding the channel and eventually leading to a catastrophic emptying of the impounded water.

Alloy and Rust, you say? Inventive names.

I agree with your entire post, and thanks for posting the screen test.

You’ve played Kinja Spoony before.

On the other hand I bet he’s super cheap.

Renny Harlin.

the problem with Crouch in the England team is that he looked like he “fitt[ed] perfectly with the natural English style of soccer” but he didn’t.

Donnie Yen is super cool and all and I am certain he would have done fine as a non-martial-artist character. However he’s a martial artist, and an excellent one. It would surely be a waste to cast the great Donnie Yen in a Star Wars film and not get him to do martial arts. I’m not sure it’s racist to cast a famous and…

Came for this gif. Not disappointed. Keep up the good work.

WHY THE FUCK DOES THERE ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A TWIST?

What is wrong with the way “SeSevenen” is written in the title?
