Cheer Up Boss Dharma    There's actually two interpretations to this punchline. What he's literally saying is, that rich people tend to pay for their families to get surgery in sprout tier. Which could imply that sprout tier is the best tier because the regular doctors and the management doctors are actually terrible, or it could also imply that rich people are miserly penny pinchers and that the entire tier system is just an excuse to make interns do all the work. Naturally, I chose the interpretation that was easiest to fit in the limited space I had available to me.

For a very minor surgery that they make interns do, the interns are probably the most in practice on it

Surgeon's Tales  Wikipedia sources say that Russia's manpower was ~40,000 men, which is significantly smaller, but still ~four times more than Swedes/Finns. Soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o4yccttch4 The March of Narva, which was allegedly played for the first time during this campaign (although it's probably originally from Ireland). Now played during presidential funerals. Nancy  Dustin  Mandrake  Man in Black

Medenmath posted:Heck yeah One thing that bothers me about the current RMMD storyline- I don't know if it's just supposed to be like we're seeing it ~through Sarah's imagination~ or whatever- but Rex and June don't look any younger. Part of the fun of doing a flashback is getting to draw your characters looking slightly different and I'm disappointed at the lack of enthusiasm

"Ages ago I died as men die!" Jan. 14th- 20th, 1980       Thulsa Doom! Thulsa Doom!  RE Howard, The Cat and the Skull posted:King Kull went with Tu, chief councillor of the throne, to see the talking cat of Delcardes, for though a cat may look at a king, it is not every king to look at a cat like Delcardes'. So Kull forgot the death-threat of Thulsa Doom the necromancer and went to Delcardes. Thulsa Doom is famously the villain of the 1982 film played fantastically by James Earl Jones (though the character has more in common with Thoth-amon, seen in The Phoenix on the Sword and mentioned in The God in the Bowl), and as such is associated with Conan. However, his first appearance, and only one in Howard's writings, is in the 1928 Kull story The Cat and the Skull, whose first paragraph is above. In it, he was described when making his appearance in the climax, as RE Howard, The Cat and the Skull posted:Kull tore the veil away with one motion and recoiled with a gasp. Delcardes screamed and her knees gave way; the councillors pressed backwards, faces white and the guard released their grasp and shrank horror-struck away. Now, The Cat and the Skull, while enjoyable and quite fun, isn't actually particularly good. Part of that is the edit. Originally titled Delcardes' Cat, it seems like it was originally written with a different ending, with a different villain (Kuthulos, who Thulsa Doom impersonated). However, it appears that the idea of Thulsa Doom (originally written as 'Thulses Doom') just popped suddenly into his head when he was 22 pages into a 25 page draft. As Patrice Louinet describes in "Atlantean Genesis" Patrice Louinet, Atlantean Genesis posted:Howard, in a particularly unprofessional move, didn't even rewrite his story, making all his changes on his first draft, and retitled the tale The Cat and the Skull, whose "Skull" is an explicit reference to Thulsa Doom. The story survives as an original (with the modifications) and a carbon (which shows the first stage of the story). As such, the Delcardes' Cat version basically has 'Thulses Doom' appear suddenly and with no real build-up. The edit added several lines of foreshadowing, including that final sentence in the very first paragraph (the original version is exactly the same, barring that one line, and several others are added similarly). Howard submitted the story to Weird Tales in 1928, where it was rejected. It was first published in 1967, when Lancer Books published a Kull collection. Howard did keep the idea of a skull-faced Atlantean sorcerer, writing a story called Skull-Face (which I thought was collected in The Horror Stories of Robert E. Howard but apparently is not), which was influenced by Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu, but instead of a yellow peril villain used a resurrected Atlantean sorcerer instead (it does NOT, however, sound like it is any better about the racism). Thulsa Doom took on a greater life when he appeared in Marvel Comic's Kull series, and then after said series ended when he showed up in a few Conan comics. Apparently he was a recurring villain in Andrew J Offut's Cormac Mac Art (one of Howard's semi-historical characters, an Irish pirate in the time of King Arthur) pastiches, where after being resurrected he discovers Cormac Mac Art is the reincarnation of Kull and swears to destroy him (this is not completely without precedent, despite being semi-historical for the most part, there was apparently a Cormac Mac Art story where he fights the last of the serpent-men, previously seen in the Kull story The Shadow Kingdom, entitled The Temple of Abomination, though this appears to have been an unfinished fragment patched up by editor Richard L Tierney. Huh. I have a Red Sonja novel by him that I haven't read).
