“Hurry up, I got a hot date with early death!” - Person getting tooth extracted.

I still remember the first time I played StarCraft and watched the intro movie, when the battle cruisers left it blew my child mind.

A useful skill to learn in case you need assistance.

Yes. It’s the inner goo of the earth cube.

All things serve the beam!

One counterpoint I would have to those other hobbies (I enjoy all of them, so no disrespect to them or practitioners of them) is they don’t expose a person to new ideas as easily. Reading is great for getting a potential new perspective on something, or just absorbing new ideas in general.

You can always combine both by reading up on another hobby you have, best of both worlds so to speak.

I can think of 731 reasons why.

Edit: or I hope they don’t mengele the translations.

Ooooooooh!

Who lives in a ᵀᶦⁿʸ pineapple under the sea?

Thanks for the perspective, that makes sense!

What aspect of this appeals to you? I’m having a hard time understanding the appeal of it.

I enjoy a good Irish breakfast, not sure what specifically is the difference between that and a traditional english breakfast. Just tastes smoother to me.

When is the last time you actually went on the e&n bike path? It’s parallel to the railway line, the tracks are still there. Additionally, Victoria has the highest proportion of commuting bike riders in the country thanks to our mild weather a decent bike infrastructure. Every one of those bikes on the path is a car not on the road.

Edit: autocorrect fudged some words.

Yes, exactly. Focus on commuting sections first, then open it up further for leisure travel and freight.

Getting a passenger car or two onto the track compared to freight trains requires far less upgrading and is much easier/feasable at first.

While I agree we need to eventually do that, the cost of updating the track (and particularly the bridges) for the whole route is making it expensive. Just get the langford to downtown portion up and running to prove (like it needs proving) the concept. Once it is operational then it can be expanded upon in sections, go to Duncan, cowichan valley, etc and move up island. The priority should be alleviating the colwood crawl.

Y’all better not be driving any green (gayer) or yellow (gayest) vehicles either!

Yes.

I never realized until now how easy it is to accidentally chop someone in half with a machete.

I’m no BiteForceologist but I was assume they compare muscle size, muscle attachment points, and mechanical advantage of extant creatures and then apply that data to fossils. So not 100% accurate, but not just guessing randomly.

she was warned by the army’s morale and welfare services that she should have better understood the risks of the job.

Job requirements:

• must be able to lift 50 lbs
• must be able to work shifts
• must accept getting sexually assaulted from time to time

She must have missed that line in the job description.

Looks like this kid grew up and is making sciencememes now.
