EXPLODING HEAD SYNDROME!!!

It's not what you think. Or at least not what I thought. Instead of your head literally exploding, people with this hear loud noises in their heads but it's not real. usually happens right before they fall asleep. Weird but harmless.

Oh man, I know I had my go already, but I clicked random one more time, and I got....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_consumption

And it was just too rich to get it randomly that I had to share.

So apparently, you can smoke it in a cigarette-like joint, a cigar-like blunt, just throw a big-ass pile of it in a fire and breathe the smoke, vaporize it, cook it and eat it, or drink it. But you need to heat it up to kill the fungus.
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Axe:_The_Duel

Street Fighter meets Golden Axe and has a slightly retarded kid, basically.

I remember this, it was a attempt to cash in on the coin-op fighter craze, when SF Alpha and MK3 were the big arcade games. Not a terrible game, but not great either. It felt dated when it came out and wasn't deep enough to stand up against other games. And when Soul Edge came out? Blew this one away.
 
I liked my game I did when I tried to link two unrelated articles with only clicking, in as few links as possible. But I will play this game in the name of knowledge.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Bonefish_(SS-582)

The USS Bonefish (2nd submarine with that name) was commissioned in 1959, a diesel-electric submarine in a navy that was beginning to transition to nukes. She served a lengthy career doing Pacific floats, operating in Asiatic waters for the vast majority of her career.

She was felled after 30 years of operations after an electrical fire, which cost the lives of three of her crew. It was deemed too costly to repair and upgrade her, and she was scrapped in 1989.

I actually have this. I didn't know it was a medical condition. Heh. I wake up with a start thinking someone has kicked in the door, and I have to get up and check to make sure the house is secure before I can fall back asleep.

And to stay on topic:
