I learned about the Eleven Jones Cave, thanks to 17776 today.

Neat!

Grease also floats, burning grease doubly so. So if a fire starts, the first instinct is to throw water on it, which just spreads the flames.

Smother a grease fire. Use an extinguisher. Hell, throw a shitload of salt on it. Don't throw water.

In my experience? Two years before it becomes disgusting to smell, but the six month mark was when it started to get easier. But honestly, if you can do one month, you can do six. If you can do six months, you can do the rest of your life.

Hang in there.

At this point, there are no automatic systems to prevent a new user from adding links. I just disprove of all of them manually, often without bothering to change the reason why they were disapproved - after all, if you aren't going to read a rules thread, you aren't going to read a reason why your p...

Well after that day i said i quit , i smoked a little bit more . That did not go well as i planned . Anyway trying once more . These things happen. Don't sweat it too hard, just get right back to trying again. Oh, and ucim? Smoking for me is like pissing on somebody else's living room carpet. It's ...

No.

Cannibalism followed by autocannibalism to disability followed by rescue.

Eh, I think it's under control.

Either chewing on my fingernails is an addiction, or cigarette are - among other things - a habit. I've only recently stopped feeling strange about not lighting up when I get in a car to drive. I haven't smoked in 12+ years. I was - still may be - completely conditioned to feel like lighting up is a...

Oh yeah, he totally knows something is there. Some metal bar.

Is it a corset? Is it a brace? Man's polite enough to not comment on strange objects felt in a woman's dress.

On the theory that this thread is going to be a repeat of the "I think I need to quit smoking" thread, with people offering well-meaning advice in vain because the single-post OP is a spammer, I say go ahead and do the trip. One of you can survive by eating the other. I've already locked ...

Don't. Spending a week at a camp when you brought enough food and water to last a week is difficult enough when you know what you're doing. You admit you don't. Best case scenario is you spend the most miserable, wet, cold, hungry week of your life. Bad case is that you die. You probably don't want ...

I've been checking this post almost once a day, waiting for OP to edit it.

Why hadn't you reported it?

... is Int pronounced Skeeter? I'm going to pronounce it Skeeter.

About that absenteeism. The intention is kinda similar to what Marvel Comics did with Ultimate Thor at first - that is, much how the reader was kept in the dark on whether or not Thor was the Norse God or just a crazy guy with stolen tech, you, the viewer - at least from my viewing - are meant to sp...

I realize that all these complaints are pretty minor, but part of the fun of watching a movie is picking it to bits afterwards. Two more little nits: That damn sword with no scabbard, that nonetheless never seemed to cut anything. Diana hid it at the party by just sticking it down the back of her d...

That's a low blow.

I know, that one was stretching it. It's all relative anyway.

Are you a Terry or a Holt? Unlike Zohar, I have no idea what you're talking about In a recent Brooklyn 99, Captain Holt and Sargent Jeffords (typically just called Terry) got in to an argument about which children preferred more in their model trains - Holt arguing for as accurate a presentation of...

You'll never convince me that people don't get in to H0 scale because they can call it Ho Scale.

The way I did it works as follows. Step 1. Find someone you strongly believe you have more willpower than. Step 2. Get them to start smoking if they don't already. Step 3. Convince them to quit smoking cold turkey. Step 4. Quit cold turkey. After all, if that asshole can, so can you. Step 5. Stop ta...

Well, yeah. But then how do you get rid of the rats?

Even in the context of a world where people are fooled by a pair of glasses, I still don't understand how that very distinct scar by her eyebrow hasn't given her away like, 47 times. Exactly 47 times.

Much like in video games, when a new one comes out it gets it's own thread, but if it becomes a discussion on the series as a whole, it gets mashed together if it seems reasonable.

So yes, WW would get it's own thread and also how am I just now noticing this to reply to it?

Got any pictures of your setup? Does it swing towards realism or towards whimsy?

Are you a Terry or a Holt?

I checked the "before you post" thread's list of threads...I tried seraching for the comic in various ways, and I tried searching for "find the comic" "which comic" and things of that nature...and if I found something, I wouldn't be posting here. Also, the more I think...

Keep talking.

Season 1 was basically 'all the other aliens are bad because they all escaped from the super prison that also crashed when supergirl crashed to Earth. Fair enough. Season 2, the aliens have all turned into a metaphor for refugees and immigrants, which is not at all explained? The intro also doesn't...

Take a look at quantum conundrum. Uses different dimensional shifting with different properties to solve puzzles.

Pretty sure airdrik was being sarcastic.

Randall lives in Boston, MA, USA. So maybe!

Let's get back on topic.

One and a half. Ban and a smattering of English.

Y'all have three options. A. Tell me where the AI talk started and I'll split the stuff out from there and you guys can enjoy your own thread. B. Just stop chattering about it here and find one of the other AI threads in NA (or SB or Computer Science) and pick it up there. C. Keep talking about it ...

Fuck it, no one is allowed to post here unless there's at least a bodycount of 1400 children under the age of five. Otherwise, it's not dark enough.

Initially it showed a comic based on criteria I don't understand - browser, location, that sort of thing.

I do not believe the script is where the page believes it to be. I do not know if this is intentional.

So... anyone knows which Superman scene he's referring to? Alt Alt Text: "I'm starting a new Youtube channel called Dr Geode Popper, on account of earth's current teenager-like geodermis. Don't you love that moment when it pops?" Probably this one.... minus the screaming goat https://m.yo...

That's fair. When I hear things about "There's a lot of DLC" I think of stuff like RPG Maker..... or Train Simulator.

Because holy shit, Train Simulator. Holy shit.

One of the three DLCs is free, so there's that. I'm not sure where you got that there was a lot of DLC, maybe where there's a lot of news updates so it looks like there's 68 DLC items?

What I choose to conclude is that there's a huge percentage of voters who don't like what either major party is selling enough to join the Fan Club, but who might be persuaded to support the right candidate, based on factors that can't be assumed from the data. (That conclusion might indeed be bull...
