31 days left in 2020, anyone want to make bets on what other stupid things will happen this year?

Already covered:
Record shattering hurricane season in the Atlantic (one town got in 2 warning cones at the same time!)
Leads to my favorite experience of the year,
evacuating from the NC Outer Banks during a
pandemic
(I called it the “coronacaine
clusterfuck”)
Record breaking wildfires (US and Aus, at the very least)
Mentioned earlier, but bears repeating: COVID
Kobe Bryant’s helo crash (that was January!)
We came close to war with Iran, repeatedly
US started aiding Taliban vs ISIL
Deaths of Chadwick Bozeman, John Lewis, Ruth Bader Ginsburg
CAROL loving BASKIN
George Floyd (and many others :( )
Election clusterfuck (senate control is still up in the air!)

What else have I missed?

Obligatory “John Oliver blows up 2020” video for everyone’s enjoyment:

This year's felt like a decade. God I hope 2021 is boring, whoever said "may you live in interesting times" is an rear end in a top hat.

What's left on the natural disaster checklist, volcano?

Volcano, tsunami, and meteor (which has been threatened this year a few times). There have been some decent earthquakes around the world this year, last one being ~7.0 and hitting Turkey right before our Election Day.

I had to imdb him to remember he played Poe in the new star wars. This is also the first i'm hearing of a Metal Gear Solid movie. Any word on if they're going to try and play it straight, or are they just trying to kojima up a movie?

He’s also going to be Moon Knight, another one from the stable that Disney got from Fox.

I thought the House certifying was the official official. Hence why some dispshit Rep from PA plans to object. I mean I don't disagree with you in terms of impact, just that I thought the House certifying was last.

Maybe? Idk, there’s never been a time where we actually had a look at every single step because a gigantic wet baby aggressively shat himself at each and every step along the way.

Feds get a choice of plans, some of them are cheap but suck rear end and don’t cover much. If this person was a political appointee he could also have gone uninsured for ideological reasons.

So much :wtc: to unpack with that, not Civvie he’s awesome, just the terms and issues with them.

So much for Fetterman on Twitch.

Real talk I’d absolutely sub to a channel of him playing video games.

Is that the same guy that did the reviews for Plutonia and Evilution (old DooM .wads)?

Nope. It takes no effort or training to create a directional charge- it is literally just how you stack them. This isn't OPSEC or anything- it's in numerous wiki articles.

The idea of cursed favorable geometry shows up a fair bit in the PYF Dangerous Chemistry thread, usually in regards to nuclear weapons...but sometimes with shaped charges too.

That one is a classic, but I’m a fan of this one too.

Lest we forget a true work of art, Richard Spencer getting punched to the tune of almost anything is a solid pick-me-up :)
