  • the real problem for me with the 5/5 wasn’t that I couldn’t handle the spice. The spice was amazing, and actually added to the flavor, unlike many. What was the issue was how long it took to eat it because you have to manage how much you have in your mouth so it doesn’t overwhelm you. Luckily my buddy wasn’t closely watched for his ‘hour long’ lunch break.



  • It’s amusing how things you never expect to be seen by others suddenly go intercontinental because your company likes them. I have a friend who retired from her corporate job about 15 years ago. She had an excel document (that I guess became some sort of super document, I dunno, I’m not into that sort of stuff), and it worked so well for her work that it became the company standard for a gigantic multinational corporation (they’re one of the ones you always hear involved in US wars), and whatever she did couldn’t be changed once she left.

    That means she occasionally still gets contacted about her mildly suggestive name for the file. It references testicles and corporate greed in one go round.




  • Oh, lol, sorry. I thought you meant how the ‘knot’ and ‘weed’ fit into current internet culture. A lot of plants have names that probably don’t make much sense to us. Apparently in its native Japan, there are 689 terms for it! Damn. I noticed that another english name for it is Donkey Rhubarb, which immediately makes me think of other things, and I’m now realizing I spend way too much time on the internet. /facepalm


  • I think Ian M. Banks (‘The Culture’ series) already had that, unless that’s specifically what you were referencing. Though humanity wasn’t a part of The Culture, as explicitly explained when they were viewing us like apes in a zoo, so the ringworlds with primitive cultures on them that had AI machine minds tending them weren’t from the wake of humanity.


  • On the internet, everything vaguely dog-like has a big, thick penis with an even bigger, thicker bulb at the bottom of it. I’ve heard it’s perfect for prissy subs everywhere as you love-fuck them into a drooling mess only to ‘tie’ them at the end as you howl your alpha-dominant status to the echoing world of your 10ftx10ft, $1500/mo roomapartment.

    The amount of scathing that a canopy company gets when a skydiver hits hard is particularly dependent on their quality. Most of us who skydive read the death/injury reports regularly, and when the equipment was at fault it (the report) gets nasty. Here’s a link if anyone is curious to read through some of them. The majority are going to be the fault of the loon jumping out of a plane, but every now and then you’ll see an equipment failure. Most of those, even, are due to poor maintenance and upkeep, not manufacturer sleaziness.
