The whole point of the joke is "why would a snake person have mammalian features?" and they still gave her a navel.

Why wouldn't they have one? Don't reptiles and avians still have an attachment to the yolk sac when hatched?

Yes, but it's only in mammals that the umbilical cord leaves a permanent scar. In birds and reptiles it fades away completely usually within a few days or weeks of birth.

As an engineer and an engineering manager they are like loving genies. They won't do the simplest thing they might do the most complex thing if it technically does what you wanted. Where they differ from genies is that half they time what they do doesn't even loving work. Decided to do the wrong thing and gently caress that up as well.

In Navy boot camp this was called "nuking it" because the perpetrator was inevitably headed to nuke school.

A better comparison would be to 45 year old Jason Sudekis, who is George Wendt's nephew so they have actual DNA in common.




Although that photo is hardly fair - Sudekis is groomed and dressed up to look as nice as possible for a red-carpet somethingorother while Wendt is done up for TV to look schlubby as per the character.

people do get kind of fixated on certain words or phrases and the one recently that's bothering the hell out of me is "indeed" and it seems like if you're the type of person who uses indeed even once, you're going to use it 100 times in your writing or podcast or whatever. Also, is 275 not like a crazy weight for someone at that height?

I'm 5'11" and just hit 250 as a result of not changing my habits enough after getting my thyroid gamma-rayed into settling the gently caress down. Gaining 25 pounds has been a whole new level of discomfort and self-loathing. I have to imagine that another 25 would be worse. I should be at about 180.

But in America, 275 at that height is not really all that unusual, no.

My friend was from a small town in Texas. One of the local ranchers was proud of his champion charolais bulls, so he has a life sized, anatomically correct fiberglass reproduction placed on a pole at the gate of his ranch.

Needless to say, there's no telling how many coats of alternating blue and white paint were on those balls. The local high schoolers would sneak in at night to paint them blue, and the rancher would paint over them within a day or two. This went on for decades.

THERE IS NO O IN NUMBER gently caress YOU

There are a lot of holdovers in "proper" English grammar from a time when 18th century rear end in a top hat prescriptivists tried to enforce rules borrowed from Latin on a non-Romance language.

Like, the whole thing about split infinitives - "to boldly go" vs "to go boldly" - is because it's actually impossible to do that in Latin because Latin infinitives are one word. The "rule" against ending a sentence with a preposition is the same way.

In case you're still wondering, the Latin word for "number" is "numero" which got abbreviated as "No." by scribes, and that got carried over to English as well. There's actually a complete sign for it, "No" that most folks don't bother with nowadays, and "#" is more common in the US anyway.

It must look weird right?

There's just enough elastic to pull when standing. When you sit, it goes slack. No weird diagonal bunching of pant leg behind the knee while sitting, if that's what you're curious about.
