I was under the impression tooth decay in meth users was not a directly result of the meth itself, but rather secondary due to stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system halting saliva production and poor oral hygiene leading to excessive bacterial growth.

This is actually one of my biggest complains about F4F as a company. I'm an avid collector of their Legend of Zelda statues. Up until the recent release of Ganondorf, there were 5 (arguably 7) versions of Link available (not including exclusive versions), but zero of the other two major characters of the franchise. …

More and more, I am fucking ashamed of the rampant misogyny, racism, and homophobia of the geek community. I'm fucking done self-identifying as a geek. Fuck that community. Let it rot on the vine.

I really don't get the love for this show. The first season was okay. It was enjoyable, but the writers forgot that there's more to writing a mystery than throwing out red herrings left and right.

Scrooged, Christmas Vacation, Bad Santa and Die Hard are my traditional Christmas films. This year, I also added the latest Harold & Kumar to the list.

Now I can't stop blinking at the end of sentences!

I have tickets to go see the Oregon showing in March, and I'm a little apprehensive. Not because of the music. I'm sure that will be fantastic. I'm actually apprehensive because of the audience, and that top video didn't help any. This is a symphony; I don't particularly want to have to deal with morons shouting…

That's nothing. The sheer fucking number of firmware updates the thing goes through, and every single one is a fucking 20-minute affair when all I fucking wanted to do was watch fucking Netflix while eating dinner, but now I'm done with the goddamn plate before the system has even finished downloading the update, let…

Yeah. Nobody cares.

The Nook's lighting and screen is even worse. Good try though.

Same here. I actually downgraded from the Touch to the non-Touch after a while. Honestly, I hope they just refresh the whole damn line, rather than add a light to the existing models. I'm not a big fan of the design of this generation at all, and hope they go back to the non-painted models with page-turn buttons on…

On the one hand, the entire show was built on self-referential humor. But on the other hand, I really hope they don't spend all 10 episodes trying to cram in as much stuff from the first run as possible just because they can.

Honest question here: when Hollywood is filled to the brim with makeup changing actors complexion and prosthetics changing their physical features, what does it matter if she's not the right look or complexion for the role? If they choose to, they can easily make her look like Simone.

Injuries don't always lead to immediate pain. You ever cut yourself and not notice until minutes or hours later? Adrenaline (like, say, from getting your foot run over) can have a hell of an effect on how you process pain.

Well sure, he's a Prince and trained military and he just rescued a drowning girl, but really, he should be ashamed of that hair of his. Don't they have stuff for that these days?

Thanks for that. I was thinking of that exact wasp while reading the story, and was going to post about it. Still interesting though, and I wonder if it's possible for the aphid and this wasp to share a common ancestor despite photosynthesis being a rare trait amongst wasps, or if this is a case of convergent…

Also, if my series started off with the story of ACI, I wouldn't go around bitching about the stories in other games. Glass houses, yada yada yada.

In what world is Nintendo releasing a new version of its franchises each year, and how the fuck can I get a hold of the Zelda ones?

Nothing odd about it. These are an unabashed guilty pleasure for me.

Actually, they sit between the infrared and radio spectrum. What people consider radiation typically lies on the other end of the spectrum.
