Xander ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Wow. That is some shit right there.
I would think that bananas fitting perfectly into our hands would be further evidence that we are evolved from monkeys who eat lots of bananas.
...
I don't even know.
I called one of my kids "crazycakes" today while we were joking around at the end of the day and another kid said to him, "Yeah! Crazy chocolate cake!"
I think the bigger issue is that bananas as we know them will not reproduce naturally. The naturally occurring relative of the banana is filled with hard seeds and is pretty much inedible.
Timelies all!
Ginger, it's nice to know that I'm a tool of the pro-abortion liberal thugs. :) (My lab is part of NCI)
What? AMC and Movietickets.com no longer have a good relationship. I hate Fandango. And do they accept my Stubs card? I don't even know. If I just bought a Stubs card that I need to go into the theatre to use, I will be pissed.
Without recourse, but pissed.
So the banana, a miracle of intelligent design, was useless to us until we used science to develop the yummy fruit we have today. Is that the lesson here? Science trumps intelligent design?
I think the bigger issue is that bananas as we know them will not reproduce naturally.
As god intended. Can't have slutty bananas reproducing outside of marriage.
Well, at least banana abortion is a non-starter.
Thank GOD.
Can “data” be a mass noun now? Please?
No! It's hard-wired into my brain as a plural now, and the world must accommodate me!
(It does seriously make me twitch when I hear NPR anchors use "data" as a singular. Well okay, when *anyone* does it.)
And yet, isn't "Thou shalt not bear false witness" one of the Big Ten?
That's one of those Old Testament strictures that modern Christians can feel free to ignore unless it mentions how icky God finds The Gays. Jesus didn't say it, after all.
Unlike, y'know, "Judge not, that ye be not judged." Or "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men."
Oh, wait...
"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men."
That's such a fun one to throw in people's faces.
