  • Those Moves?

  • Olive Oyl? My high school chemistry/life science teacher did me wrong!

  • Nothing to see here. Just a pine cone.

    Jump

  • Me neither. I read a couple of descriptions of striped cuckoos. None mentioned this tidbit and that made me suspicious.

    On the other hand, I did find this: https://www.thenakedscientists.com/articles/science-news/cuckoo-chicks-earn-their-keep

    It includes a picture of a nest with a cuckoo chick and, although it doesn't look like a pine cone, you can easily make out the speckled feathers. Also, the article is interesting in asserting that the cuckoos' parasitism isn't all bad.

  • Um, actually, I've done my own research on this and this was technically a self-portrait.

  • How long before before the instructor is able to put a trick question on the test (i.e., "Both") because The Pokemon Company has started licensing names to pharmaceutical companies?

  • I can't help with the Roman version, but it sounds familiar to the take I heard on the Myths and Legends Podcast (if I'm remembering it right): Medusa becomes beautiful, Poseidon rapes her, Athena blames Medusa for getting raped and makes her hideous. I don't remember if Athena tops it off by compelling Perseus to murder Medusa, but she at least gives him the shield and the instructions on how to do it.

    Edit: I think I was actually meaning to respond to Xeroxcool.

  • The wide range of girl body types

  • Yep, I'm afraid Gladaed is right; definitely different pictures. When she posed for the sketches, she did something different with her arms each time. She sometimes changed her expression too. Oh, and one day she wore a shorter shirt.

  • So, not a fironin. Damn, I was so sure at first. I think the Fironin Support Network needs to do more public outreach.

  • Technically, I think this guy is what is called a "fironin"--he was a fireman until his firehouse burned down, killing the fire chief. Now he wanders suburbia, seeking short-term employment monitoring barbeques during block parties.

    Edit: did Japanese people use those horizontal closures? If he's Chinese, I can offer no context.

  • I didn't have a specific once in mind, no. But spider-bots are not uncommon in sci-fi and it seems to me that robots with tentacle cables are equally common in the horror sub-genre. That's what it reminded me of, is all.

    Jump

  • You haven't watched enough sci-fi if you don't see this as a set up for spider machines murdering a bunch of peaceful colonists/researchers. Well, ok, one guy is a complete asshole and he'll be directly responsible for the machines coming to life, but he'll get his.

  • Is there supposed to be something weird about this picture? From hiding random furniture parts behind a potted plant to a record collection of three to five unlabeled records, it all seems perfectly normal. And that is definitely how I store my books...
