We're pretty much the only mammals that aren't ripped. Predatory animals like cats, wolves and bears have a lot of muscle. Prey animals are either agile or fast, so they need muscles too. As for close relatives? Check out this guy:



This is a chimpanzee that is so old and infirm that that its hair has fallen out. The senior citizen of chimpanzees.

I'm reminded of Snowflake the albino gorilla that lived for 39 years at the Barcelona Zoo, and how much of a difference the hair makes in how apes look. I'd be interested in seeing like a blog or something collecting animals that have had their fur removed. Like our buddy up there, or then when the Spectacled Bears at the Berlin Zoo had mange and lost theirs, and went from adorable teddies to servants of Gozer:

Regular M&Ms don't have nuts in them and the ones that do aren't the same shape as Skittles though.

:chef: In high school I had a teacher with a nut allergy right when that "fad illness" was taking off (this isn't the place to rant about THAT phenomena) and she informed me that apparently the candy shells for M&Ms are made with nuts in their recipe, so even the chocolate ones still have nuts in them. Not to mention that they're made on the same machinery as the peanut ones, which apparently is often enough for those with allergies.

From Hell, just outside Trondheim, Norway. They have a blues festival called Blues In Hell. And yes, they have had black metal shows there, although sadly no festivals.



I live in Michigan, in the US, and a half hour North of me is another town named Hell. It's a tiny rear end town with like, less than 300 residents, but they really play up the name game. They have a wedding chapel so you can be a match made in Hell, for example, and they regularly hold a marathon there where you can run through Hell. They had a huge party on June 6th, 2006.

You forgot Sunny, which is an odd-name-out if we're being like that (and also born in America, funnily enough).

Also you have to match the names up with the picture.

I hate feeding derails, but I'm pretty sure that Sunny is fairly common in Korea. But then again, I don't know anything about K-pop, and base all my knowledge on being the only white dude in an all-Korean dry cleaners for the better part of a decade, and the occasional Korean films that would get mixed in with my J-horror obsession from ten years ago. So I'll defer to the guy with a S. Korean flag in his avatar...

She never actually fucks the bear, it's a metaphor for her dissociation with modern society. Also the bear messes up her back before she can try.

The video store near my GF's house has This French gem about a bear monster that graphically fucks women to death. That's pretty much all it's about.

Gonna second this. It quickly turns into a game of people trying too hard to be funny.

There are 3 types of CAH players. Those that are like this, those that just lay down anything and create confusing non-sequiturs (play long enough or with a big enough group and every game becomes this) and the rare people who actually use it for its ice-breaking purpose and are chill about games. Guess which group is the only fun one.

Last May I went to a general-geek themed convention, and one of the events the board game people put on was what they claimed was to be "the world's biggest CAH game". Every person I knew was basically "Oh, that could be fu--wait that sounds like a terrible idea." When it was actually time for it, there were lines of people heading in, with people holding the Bigger Blacker Box over their heads like they thought they were King Nerd. :jerkbag:

Re: Jones Soda holiday mixes. I annually go to a b-movie themed event, and part of the experience is people bring in food that is horrible for you as well as having you watch movies of equal quality. Things like crab chips and chum candy, to get the ball rolling on your ideas. Anyways, one year, someone had all the holiday six packs brought in. I being the oh-so-manly-man I am (read: Goony McGoonerson), decided to go around the horn, and try every single flavor. Every thanksgiving flavor, every christmas flavor, every chanukah flavor, every super bowl flavor. Some tasted pretty dang good, especially some of the desert ones--I was surprised by how much I liked the latke one for instance. Some were bad but not nauseatingly so, and were just what they said they'd be, like sweat--gross, but what did you expect it to taste like other than salty carbonation? Then there were the truly dire ones like astroturf which just made me wretch. But I made it through. And I regret it all.

Yeah, I'm in Michigan, but I'm fairly sure Ohio works the same as us in that the letter/number combo isn't random but rather given out sequentially by the DMV to customers. So there's up to 10,000 people driving around Ohio with FAP plates right now. My father is named Richard, and recently got a new car. Completely randomly, his first three symbols are DCK.

They should add in a learning algorithm like Akinator so eventually it'll be able to pinpoint the town in Mumbai you grew up in by how differently you pronounce 'keef halak' and 'keef halek.'

I had a friend whose parents were from India but he was born in the US take the quiz. It had no clue where to put him. It just triangulated the whole drat country.

Meanwhile, I'm from SE Michigan, and can confirm Devil's Night. It's funny, the region map for when you answer that question that way shows SE Michigan, and like, some dude in the middle of Pennsylvania.

Also finally, we say Kitty-Corner for something diagonal across an intersection around here. It's one of those cutesy words you use when you're a kid and then just stop using because you don't have anything better and people know what you mean when you say it.
