This right here would be a great way to show the difference between hyperplasia and hypertrophy.

Wut?
Dominos is bringing back the Noid.
Anyone else remember these glorious CGA graphics?

Hah, I remember on the apple 2, if you put a "high bit" pixel next to a "low bit" pixel, you'd get bleed-over artifacts
I remember a Beagle Bros. routine that would calculate slope and choose which order pixel to use so that your line would be thinner and straighter than what you would get with the plain ol' HPLOT.

Go on...
Meh. It's not one of those annoying languages that insist every noun has to have a (completely arbitrary) gender. My table is not male or female it's just a fucking table!
But if you don't know what gender your fucking table is, how will you know if you're gay for using it?
It was a hybrid of Alton Browns recipe. Used cremini mushrooms and went with just garlic. Should be ready by Thursday. Also saved the stock for soups.
As long as it gets thoroughly wiped down after every use, I don't care.
I'll be back Thursday.
Hey now, it is perfectly normal and understandable that the Dutch word for "girl" is gender neutral and not feminine! My language makes perfect sense!
Omg, this. I speak French for work and take classes to maintain. No matter how much grammar etc I learn and how often I speak, I always mis-gender nouns.

I don't know what that means, nerd.

I'd post a video, but I'm at work.
TLDR version, somebody in the show uses a table as a surrogate for their crush. First time I saw it, I couldn't quite believe it, but yes, Virginia, they just showed (with silhouettes and careful camera angles) somebody fuck a table in a non-hentai anime. Not played for laughs either.
I worry about you...

Hey, I didn't WRITE for the show.
Very ew.
I don't know how her being an exhibitionist about it would have made it less "Ewww", but to each their own i guess.

It means the owner would have at least known to wash the table before the next meal.
It was not implied to have been.
I mean, i know she was a genocidal maniac for a while there, but not cleaning after herself... what kind of monster do you take her for?
@Squidleybits there you go, sourdough pretzels to go with your pickled mushrooms for you when you watch your Grays Landing show.
I watched a documentary tonight called Pedal the World, about a cyclist who tours from Germany and all through Europe, New Zealand, and America.
It makes me wish I had the stamina, resources, time, money, and cycling companions to do something similar.
I've always wanted to take up more bike touring, but I've never done it and don't know anyone who would want to join me.
I'd LOVE to bike coast-to-coast across Canada. I bet that kind of adventure would make for a gorgeous documentary all its own.

For what it's worth, you only need sufficient money. Sufficient money would buy you resources, let you take as much time as you want (which would also solve the stamina problem), and no doubt would attract companions as well.
...just remember to throw the ring into the volcano once you get there. Don't be like that other guy.

I lost all my jerseys, shorts, shoes, and helmet in the fire. Never replaced them, and the bike went into the shed, never to emerge again.
That was 2005.
However you choose to do it, keep riding, friend.
(on the bright side, my calves are still awesome.)
