I can't tell if this is a positive or negative review. Good like the nourishment of dairy products from the american heartland, pure as the driven skin or bad like a taco bowl that's been overseasoned?

canyoneer posted:This is true. I'd take Jim Gaffigan's annoying high pitched whisper after every punchline any day over Brian Regan's "DURR DURR DURR" voice that he does. I thought Regan's mannerisms were funny the first time I saw him on YouTube (a bit he did in the early 90s), but they got old REALLY quickly after that. I wish he'd drop that and the open-mouthed cross-eyed thing he does after every joke because his material can be pretty good sometimes on its own.

You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and pretend they didn't know that bit was from Arthur?

Wild T posted:I saw Gaffigan in 2002 or so, evidently before his Hot Pocket bit. Instead he joked for a solid seven minutes about bread. I don't think he's very funny, but he does seem like a pretty nice guy. I'm perfectly happy with a few mediocre comedians who are also nice guys being successful. We need something on the other side of that scale. davebo posted:edit: Also first time I saw Gaffigan he was opening for John Pinette, I believe shortly after Seinfeld ended. John Pinette, on the other hand, was loving hilarious, and also, by all accounts I've heard, a really swell guy.

I lived for a year in Diego Garcia, which was shark infested as poo poo. Everyone swam a ton and nobody ever got bit so maybe they’re cool. On the other hand there were several times someone would be hauling in a tuna or a wahoo only for a shark to eat it off their line so I can confirm they’re greedy assholes. I just wanted wahoo ceviche.

Cryophage posted:Say it with me: Every shark is completely smooth no matter what angle you're touching it from This is false. Draw an imaginary transverse line through a sharks first, or prominant, dorsal fin, and widen that line to the width of the fin. Place your hand on the shark’s skin at any point directly beneath that line, and on the top third or bottom third of the shark’s body. Stroke at an angle of approximately 28.25 degrees to 36.5 degrees toward the ampullae of Lorenzini, and your hand will be shredded as gently caress.

 "Fitted and unlined glove from basking shark skin, with the mic-rose thorns inside. Should you put your hand in, you will discover that the thorns, all directed to slant inward, will lock your hand in place in the manner of, ten thousand fishhooks. Should you attempt to remove it, the thousands of thorns will bite into the skin. You can put the gloves on, but to remove them would mean to cut them off. Gloves for life, or for one wear - the ultimate and final commitment." Store link. Yours for 720 Euros!

We're talking about real sharks here, not some fantasy Hobbit bullshit. Real smooth motherfuckers, gliding through the ocean like a polished combine harvester, but carnivorous.

It is far more likely that you were stroking from the top or bottom third of a shark in the area unnderneath an imaginary transverse line through the first dorsal fin toward the ampullae of Lorenzini at an angle < 28.25 degrees or > 36.5 degrees.

Blind Sally posted:Is this a troll? Sharks are smooth. That is a myth that has a frustrating amount of traction because most people have been stroking at the wrong angle, or even stroking AWAY from the ampullae of Lorenzini, or, as one person in this thread already did, mixing up catfish and sharks. One of the very first things you learn in both both instrumental sharkanetics classes and manual sharkanetics classes are the ranges of angles under which shark skin’s pointy qualities assert themselves. That range is, in general, between 28.25 degrees and 36.5 degrees (0 degrees being on a longitudinal line down the shark’s side) TOWARD the ampullae of Lorenini from the area under the transverse line through the first dorsal fine. It does, of course, vary from species to species. This sort of misinformation was the bane of the internships I had where the job included interacting with the public, and a large part of the reason I switched my major to whale biology.
