The fact that this stupid video has 8M views, and 37K thumbs up is proof that the human race is mentally stupid.

I've said it, I've put it out there, and I can't believe I am a member of this bloody species. Which is why, every now and then - I like to pretend I'm really an alien who's here simply to observe you fleshy humanoid meat-sacks.

[cwjalex]

yup that was a pretty dumb video.  if you are a cat lover it's cute i guess but it's a little long and drawn out.  at the end when i saw "nora mugs t shirts and other crap available at her online store"  it made me cringe.

I feel like that most of the time...

Oh GOOD. I thought I was the only one... and then I thought I was insane for thinking it. And then the voices in my head told me to cut it out...

...and then I argued with them for about half an hour.

[outin]

Oh GOOD. I thought I was the only one...

The only difference is that mostly I find it much more pleasing to observe cats than humans...

[perfect_pitch]

Nah... they just look at you in a dumb manner, meow and then continue to lick themselves.

We wouldn't we view that from the other side though?  It should appear upside from our view.

Well we don't want any.  Go away. 


That's why I don't open the door....



It is a bit awkward when you tell some little kid you're not buying the crap they're peddling.  Parent don't seem to have any appreciation for sprinkling in swear words when you're telling their kid that either.



Oh, hello?  May I help you?   Did you knock?

[outin]

Good!

[j_menz]

So if they ring once or knock twice it's OK?

I believe so, but

I just read that people who know what they're doing would find the typical horror movie stabbing knife grip very easy to disarm and easy enough to attack a person trying to do that.  I think it was cracked.com.  Things movies portray incorrectly.  If you hold a knife away from your body, someone can knock it away from you.  And there's a good chance the person holding the knife will actually end up cutting themself at some point.

You're right, I you want to stab someone it's best to attack from below and aim upwards to the heart.

Weren't you taught survival skills for the Australian deserts (which are known to be full of maniacs) in boy scout?

I was a Sea Scout, so deserts were not considered useful places to be.

I know, but I don't think stabbing works that well with those...aren't they at worst just a few mm in size and almost see through?

[j_menz]

Not those ones. Up to 30cm diameter for the body, 3 metres for the tentacles.

I was thinking of these:


Anyway, I stand corrected:
The best way to stab a poisonous jellyfish is to aim for the bell and stay away from the tentacles.

Perhaps.

In this instance, I'm informed they prefer "handsome" (yes, even the women).

They can be quite persuasive.
