If Rainman was filmed in reverse we could watch him get thinner.

@George-K said in Wakey, wakey! Time for breakfast!: @Aqua-Letifer said in Wakey, wakey! Time for breakfast!: Unsurprising; fast food has tons of calories. (I probably go through 2500 or so a day.) Of course. But, just for a sense of perspective, a Big Mac and medium fries is about 870 calories. Add some OJ for breafast, and you're North of 1500 calories, I'd be. I was shocked. It's better to not think of that stuff as "food," which, David Burton attestations notwithstanding, isn't really the best way to describe it.

You creep geese. Get together with three or four of your buddies, pull the plug out of your shotguns and creep up on a nice rice field full of geese. If you can catch them on the water, as you come up and everybody shoots...Well, you can fill up a pickup truck bed. It's only illegal if you get caught...

@Jolly said in The George Schultz Diplomat Test: Foggy Mind, meet Foggy Bottom... Well, that's certainly the post of the day.

@LuFins-Dad said in How many ways do I eat thee?: @bachophile said in How many ways do I eat thee?: ive had donkey salami And I thought Jon had the worst purity score on the forum That was two days ago and it's STILL POTD.

@Klaus said in Get your article published: The article is obviously meant as a kind of spoof paper, but I seem to miss the part where it's funny. https://blog.cabells.com/2020/08/12/theyre-not-doctors-but-they-play-them-on-tv/ It soon became clear to our team that even a rudimentary peer review process (or perhaps two minutes on Google) would have led to this article’s immediate rejection. While predatory journals are no laughing matter, especially when it comes to medical research in the time of a worldwide pandemic, it is hard not to get a chuckle from some of the “easter eggs” found within articles intended to expose predatory journals. Some of our favorites from this article: Frasier Crane, a listed author, is the name of the psychiatrist from the popular sitcoms Cheers and Frasier Another author, Alfred Bellow, is the name of the NASA psychiatrist from the TV show I Dream of Jeannie Marvin Monroe is the counselor from The Simpsons Katrina Cornwell is a therapist turned Starfleet officer on Star Trek: Discovery Faber University is the name of the school in Animal House (Faber College in the film) Orbison University, which also doesn’t exist, is likely a tribute to the late, great musician Roy Orbison And, perhaps our favorite find and one we almost missed: In the “Acknowledgments” section the authors thank “Prof Joseph Davola for his advice and assistance.” This is quite likely an homage to the Seinfeld character “Crazy Joe Davola.”

Admit it, Copper, it was a shit password.

I noticed the second headline. You want to read a true horror story, read this. [image: 1597463757042-f900c874-dff8-4023-9d08-cf53a6ce9d9a.jpeg] Link to video

Are you sure?

I was thinking French but didn’t remember White Flag Man or Froggy.

Related personal trivia - one of the pallbearers at my grandfather’s funeral was crew on the plane that went with the Enola Gay, which carried the photographer.

@Jolly said in I Think I Can, I Think I Can, I Thi................oh, #%€£: In the dim mists of my youth, I could do 500. I can't even conceive of 880. Scheiße.

@Klaus said in Hey Mark! And Klaus.: I used to have a colleague who was a professional classical guitar player before he turned into a computer scientist. That's like running away from the circus to go and work in a bank (as they said about John Major)

RIP

Cincinnati did the same thing in the Delta Center. Not sure how much was spent but not a single patient ever went there.

That is awesome. I want one!!! LOL (PS I like the driving through the horse (or cow) poop at the 11 seconds period LOL)

I watched Airplane just last weekend with the boy and was pleasantly surprised to see it hadn't been reedited. I thought I had read that they wanted to take the 'jive' scene out, but it was there.
