    Today I learned that when I call something a coworker is suggesting wrongheaded, futile and reprehensible and give them detailed, cogent arguments for all three points, some of them actually listen!

    Well, I guess that was technically yesterday. Yesterday I also learned that in 34 weeks on this very sustainable low-fat diet, I've lost 32 pounds, without really substantially changing anything about my lifestyle other than the diet.

    Well, since he's a cat, even if he is a woofcat, he can stretch himself longer, and at the same time become skinnier. And if he doesn't stretch himself, he's shorter, and not so skinny. So, yeah, he can be both.

    And I have no idea what I just wrote or why...

    Today I learned how poorly the dub version of naruto translates things.

    for example:

    The Uzumaki Naruto Combo

    translated to

    Naruto Barrage


    ...whenever naruto does a kick, he pronounces a syllable of his last name. Now, there were 4 kicks, but only the parts of a word. And it sounded really weird. They could've atleast kept the name and made him say the right things at the right time.


    I also learned that true disaprin

    Today I learned that you will come of as more powerful if you speak in statements instead of questions. I also learned that it is extremely difficult to make the switch.

    That Nickelodeon promotes tranny cow, MALE COWS DO NOT HAVE UDDERS!

  15. #675
    I can actually answer your question as to why the male cows have udders in that stupid movie barnyard. I'm currently interning at Nickelodeon movie promos. There the people who have to come up with adds for stupid movies like the Barnyard which they just finished rapping up. Basic reason why the male cows have utters is simply because the writer/director of the movie Steve Odekerk thinks utters are funny. That's it. That's the reason why the male cows have utters.

    Stupid, yes I know but the internship has been interesting, especially because I got to see an early screening of Shrek 3 (at around 50% completion).

    today I learned that mercenary groups are still very active in this day and age, particularly at the behest of Western capitalist powers using them as proxies in areas around the world. If your people won't support your troops dying, why not pay someone else to go risk his neck instead? (and, the best part is they can't trace it back to governments easily)

    Vinnell - Company contracted to train Iraqi security forces by the US government

    Blackwater - The "black ops" group, although they promote a nice friendly image...

    MPRI - They train ROTC officers, but did they help Croats in ethnic clensing? "MPRI is not a private company, it is an extension of the US government" -anonymous Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Today I learned that snorting a fat line of coke and crushed up Oxycontins makes your head feel wonderful.

    Actually I didn't learn it today, I was just reminded.

    Delt with them in Vergina, they are all ex military and basicly all they do is if you are with in lets say 100 yards of what they are protecting, they just shoot you. Also they make most often more than $1000 USD a day.

    Speaking of false advertisement, coke zero does NOT taste like the real thing. The other day my friend poured me a glass of that stuff without telling me it was that coke zero stuff, and as soon as I took my first sip I was like "wtf, why'd you give me diet?". Or maybe its just the fact that I drink so much coke almost every day that I have become ultra-sensitive do any changes in its taste...
