Swords don't actually make a metallic sound coming out because that means something is rubbing the edge and making it blunt.

I'm no, memeologist, but I thought the point of the nobody: format was to be an ironic "I'm so obsessed with this thing that I bring it up at any possible opportunity, even when nobody asks", like with stupid trivia or bizarre lore theories and poo poo.

E:which I guess would go along with that second one

I envisage it as a desert scene, distant clouds, a faint wind stirs the sagebrush.

I've got a story about one such person. So I went to a bar and ran into a friend of a friend whom I didn't really know. We were both trying to get laid I guess, but there weren't any girls at the bar so we just went back to my place to hang out for a bit. no we did not gently caress . We throw on a movie and we're both pretty drunk and hungry, so I microwave some rotel dip that my grandma made. He tries some and is like, "Oh yeah that isn't hot enough, warm that up a little more." I just wanna please my company so i did and he tries it again but it still isn't hot enough. So I microwave it like three more times until he is satisfied. Of course by that time, he's the only one eating it because it's too hot for me to eat. Happy for him tho

I don't know who the gently caress raised this dude, when I feel like it's just common sense that when you go to a random stranger's house, you do not bitch about the coldness of the food they've offered you. What a poo poo head

That's when you point at the microwave and say there you go

The joke is that you think you will see me, but haha, I have seen you first. That's all there is to it.

No! Incorrect. It's not if I see you first, making it clear that the interlocutor will change their DNA into that of a different human if they see the other prior to their own perception by him or her.

They're both gonna be in hell, so he can't really re-murder the guy? Is he going to leave to a different torture district if he sees him at the lake of fire?

The refrain, "-eezer Goode, -eezer Goode, he's Ebeneezer Goode" from "Ebeneezer Goode" is not, in fact, a contraction of the titular character's first name, but rather the phrase "E's are good", and in fact the whole song promotes the benefits of taking ecstasy.

But.... Drugs are illegal

Sounds like the eyes your doctors work on have little or no optic nerve service loop. Code specifies 6 inches, at least here, but that's only for the initial setup, if the nerve has to be re-terminated (such as if the eye is replaced or the splice goes bad) you're gonna lose about an inch each time, but you generally want to run a whole new nerve once you get down real short, so you don't end up in an emergency having to redo it.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:

It used to mean that back before we had mechanical clocks (the phrase goes back to at least 1370 according to the OED) but it hasn't actually meant that in practice for a long time now. In the 1952 movie High Noon Gary Cooper was always glancing at his pocket watch or the clock on the wall as it got closer to noon, he wasn't running outside to check a sun dial or the length of the shadows

If you can find an example where they stand around measuring the shadows before they agree to start the shoot out I'll concede the point but I don't like your chances, lol

Huh, noon is a corruption of the ninth hour (nona hora), and it used to be 3pm because monks got up at 6. TIL.

The video for Total Eclipse is loving wild, it's full of pale young men in singlets with shiny eyes prancing around a dollar store version of Hogwarts. Bonnie Tyler is apparently the new Defence Against The Dark Arts teacher, wardrobe from the Nordstroms in the Eden Prairie Mall circa 1982.
