Total body disruption is invariably fatal to humans and animals, since the brain (if not outright destroyed) is deprived of oxygenated blood, while other organs (if not outright destroyed) are deprived of the involuntary functions.

The responsible party appears to have been King Anitta from Kussara, who took credit for the act and erected an inscribed curse for good measure:

quote:

"Whoever after me becomes king resettles Hattusas, let the Stormgod of the Sky strike him!"[3]

though in fact the city was rebuilt afterward, possibly by a son of Anitta.[4][5]

Toilet meal (Japanese: 便所飯, benjo-meshi) is a Japanese slang term and social phenomenon referring to the act of an individual eating a meal in a toilet room.[1] In modern Japan, some people eat alone in a bathroom for various reasons;[2] the most common reason is that they do not wish to be seen eating alone. Other reasons include saving money from eating out,[3] to hide from co-workers in a busy workplace,[4] or simply because they find it more comfortable.[3]

Since toilet meals are often solitary and clandestine, others are unlikely to be aware of its occurrence. For this reason, "toilet meals" were initially regarded as an urban legend,[5] but subsequent investigations have confirmed the phenomenon as relatively widespread. The term "toilet meal" has even been referenced in various popular media, most notably in various Japanese television shows.[6][7]

Eating lunch in the bathroom because you're too embarrassed to be seen eating by yourself is some serious cultural brain damage

The two men sold Truck Nuts through the late 1990s and 2000s, competing both in the market and in private, exchanging angry phone calls and emails. This conflict escalated into public relations wars, social media conflicts, posts on review sites, blog attack posts, and finally to legal cease and desist orders.[2]

  • 1959 – The Vostok Station (станция Восток), then a Soviet research station in Princess Elizabeth Land, was the scene of a fight between two scientists over a game of chess.[14][2][15] When one of them lost the game, he became so enraged that he attacked the other with an ice axe.[15][14][2] According to some sources, it was a murder,[15][14][2] though other sources say that the attack was not fatal.[16] Afterwards, chess games were banned at Soviet/Russian Antarctic stations.[14][15]

That's about what I'd figured location-wise. I know it's just me, but I'd find that hellish - I can't stand hot, humid weather, and I'd be fine if the high never hit 70, never mind that being the record low :ohno:

give me that weather and 10-20% humidity year round and I'll happily drop everything I'm doing and move there

this summer I spent a week in 40 C but practically zero humidity in vegas and it was loving phenomenal. though part of that might have also been being able to refresh myself with a beer the size of my forearm for four bucks at will
