A technique known as a "bunny burrito" (or less alliteratively a "rabbit burrito")[citation needed] helps a pet person manage a rabbit by surrounding it with a towel so that the animal cannot leap away, scratch with its front or back feet, or reach around and bite the person handling it. The name comes from the fact that the bunny looks like the filling of a burrito (with the towel acting as the tortilla).

Since he realized there was a difference in testing the drug in a laboratory and using it in clandestine operations, he initiated a series of experiments where LSD was given to people in "normal" settings without warning. At first, everyone in Technical Services tried it; a typical experiment involved two people in a room where they observed each other for hours and took notes. As the experimentation progressed, a point arrived where outsiders were drugged with no explanation whatsoever and surprise acid trips became something of an occupational hazard among CIA operatives.

Tom Green's 2001 film Freddy Got Fingered won in five categories at the 22nd Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Actor, Worst Director, Worst Picture, Worst Screen Couple, and Worst Screenplay.[21] Green attended the awards in person, and brought with him a cheap red carpet which he unrolled as he entered the theater where the awards were being presented.[21] "I'd just like to say to all the other nominees in the audience, I don't think that I deserve it any more than the rest of you. I'd like to say that. I don't think that it would be true, though," said Green.[21] He had to be dragged off of the stage while accepting one of his awards because he would not stop playing the harmonica.[21][22]

expected that to be about spec ops the line, was surprised that it was modern warfare 2019 (which has an alright but pretty bog standard modern FPS campaign)

(spec ops the line is a poo poo fuckin game though. it makes you think you have the ability to make morally complex choices in the story but then just railroads you into committing war crimes and then has the nerve to berate you for committing war crimes.)

The American engineer and supercomputer architect Seymour Cray is known to have been a hobby tunneller.[11] Cray built an 8 by 4 feet (2.4 by 1.2 m) cedar-floored tunnel under his house,[12] explaining that the digging helped him to think about computer designs. "While I'm digging in the tunnel, the elves will often come to me with solutions to my problem," he said.[13]

Keith Richards wrote "Satisfaction" in his sleep and recorded a rough version of the riff on a Philips cassette player. He had no idea he had written it.[4] He said when he listened to the recording in the morning, there was about two minutes of acoustic guitar before you could hear him drop the pick and "then me snoring for the next forty minutes".[5]

Norton Commander is a song released by the Montreal indie group, Men I Trust. While the song contains no literal references to the Norton Commander file manager, it is speculated that the song's subject matter of comfort and familiarity relate to the familiarity and reliability of the software.[10]

In the past, there was a Texaco floating gas station permanently anchored in line with the gun. On Monday May 18, 1964, someone was able to toss rocks from the beach below into the barrel which then perforated the 'O' in the large illuminated sign above the barge.[3][4] The barge was moved slightly after that event.

Although Frederick Lorz was greeted at the finish line as the apparent winner, he was later disqualified as he had hitched a ride in a car for part of the race. The actual winner, Thomas Hicks, was near collapse and hallucinating by the end of the race, a side effect of being administered brandy, raw eggs, and strychnine by his trainers. The fourth-place finisher, Andarín Carvajal, took a nap during the race after eating spoiled apples.

The in-flight entertainment system was the first of its kind equipped on the plane. It allowed the first and business class passengers to browse the World Wide Web, select their own movies and games, and gamble. The system was installed in business class one year before the incident, between 21 August and 9 September 1997. It was installed in first class five months later, in February 1998, due to delivery delays.[3]

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

every year or so a mostly intact foot in a shoe washes up on the shores of the salish sea. there's an overwhelming probability that it's people dying in boating accidents and the currents removing feet from the bodies at the ankles, but there are people who 100% insist there's some kind of serial killer who rarely strikes and specifically boats out to near international waters to drop a single foot, like if the zodiac killer was quentin tarantino
