When the Greeks adopted coinage, the standard coin or obol takes its name from these skewers. So a quarry is like, a bank?

Looks like we're posting our favorite Drewtoothpaste videos. Laziness anthem "I Don't Do poo poo". Amen, Drew. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPrjhrPXkDE I'm also a big fan of "Comb Your Beard (At Night)". It's actually got a really cool beat! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg1RuXvlxxQ

Peeny Cheez posted:Kompressor was an almost perfect piss-take of bad mp3.com-era fruity loops industrial music. As one of those mp3.com-era industrial bands we all loved him too. I know he and one of the bands we used to hang out with worked together on some actual remixes and stuff, but I never got to meet the guy. I still remember the first time I saw KOMPRESSOR posted here and couldn't believe anyone else had heard of him.

There used to be this “internet radio” jukebox thing strictly for industrial music called stoic radio or something like that. When I was 16 or so, I used to go on there and anonymously request various KOMPRESSOR tracks one after another, just to watch everyone in the chat get mad as hell after a while (and also because I liked KOMPRESSOR).

When the Greeks adopted coinage, the standard coin or obol takes its name from these skewers. Related: The Triganic Pu is a unit of galactic currency, with an exchange rate of eight Ningis to one Pu. This is simple enough, but, since a Ningi is a triangular rubber coin six thousand eight hundred miles along each side, no one has ever collected enough to own one Pu. Ningis are not negotiable currency, because the Galactibanks refuse to deal in fiddling small change.

I only recently learned about this because a large new apartment building is just called "1488" after 2 previous name-changes they decided to play it safe by simply using the building's address.
