  1. Before anyone throws the term "racist" about, let me be the first to remind everyone that practically everyone on Roshar is pretty much Asian.
  2. This pug approves.
  3. 'Twas our pleasure. You've reached $190 so far, so I can tell several people have been super generous. That's probably the best attitude to have about it. I think the Google Translate software is actually a conscious AI, that makes mistakes deliberately just to troll us. You and he must have differing comedic standards.
  4. Wish I could donate more, but I've got at least four kittens that are gonna need neutering. (Luck wished. ) Stupid Tower of Babel.
  5. Google Translate, you are dead to me.
  6. Since the admins make a point to close threads once they hit 100 pages, I thought it'd be a polite gesture to make things easier on them. Since the popular Random Stuff thread has hit the Hundred Club, what do you guys say to moving our random activities to a new thread--this one? If I'm not explaining myself well, I'll let my ponified self do the talking. You heard him. Start randoming.
  7. No, I've got it. I've had it ready to post all morning. EDIT: Aaaaand... started.
  8. Yeah, as long as she didn't go out of her way to provoke anyone she'd just be one more random henchman. I could even see her with the MEE. Um... his weakness is people not being Batman, I guess?
  9. You have a vindictive streak that scares me sometimes, Twi. Since by my calculations this should be marking Page 100, what do you guys think of giving the admins a kind gesture and relocating to a second thread?
  10. Kitten justice is swift and painful.
  11. No offense taken. People down here complain about the northern states all the time, but Illinois was much nicer in my opinion. Chicago sucks, and the taxes are high all over the state, but there were no criminal cartels smuggling drugs over the border. Agreed. Sort of like that opening scene from Big Hero 6? But with cats and dogs?
  12. They are. We thought about it, but there are so many cats in this part of Texas, I can't drive through town without seeing kids with "Free Kittens" signs. And since you can acquire your own cat pretty easily just by leaving food out and attracting a lovable stray, there's not much demand for even free kittens. But the worst part is that I live in a particularly shady part of Texas. There are a lot of gangs in this part of the state, and dog-fighting is pretty popular among the sleazier folk. It's not uncommon for the owners of fighting dogs to acquire free or cheap kittens to use as training fodder for their dogs.
  13. Welcome to the madness, Quiver. I've been wondering when you'd finally join in.
  14. My cat's giving birth, which so far pushes our number of cats to 18, I think. I don't care though. I don't even care that we'll have to work harder to afford their cat food and to afford getting them fixed. All I care about is how cute the kittens are already. EDIT: She's already given birth to one more. I think we have 19 cats now.
  15. Post your favorite alien and I'll PM you my face. I mean, not my real, physical face, since it's kind of squishy and I'm attached to it. But I'll send you a picture.
  16. Huh. If I'd known it was that easy I'd have done it ages ago.
  17. So you're either adorable or handsome. What's the big deal? I still find it odd though that I know more about your life story and personal life than any of your co-workers, and yet they know what your face looks like while I can't help but envision you as a purple pony. The Internet does weird things to interpersonal relationships.
  18. Don't show him the manga-fied version you did of yourself. He'd probably explode from the cuteness.
  19. Personally, I think God does a divine facepalm everytime people talk about "the conflict between science and religion." I see God as an artist, and I think few things please Him more than people genuinely taking joy in His creation and seeking to understand it, just as a painter would love to see people admiring and analyzing his work.
  20. Well, there are scientists who think like that. They're not common, and their arguments don't make a lot of sense from a logical viewpoint, but they do exist. There are plenty of rational atheists, but there'll always be a few who will make irrational arguments based on limited evidence. But in the same vein, I've read blogs by Christians who argue that the clam shell they found in their backyard proves that a literal Flood happened and that the world is less than ten thousand years old. The problem is that nobody can seem to accept that sometimes things can be cool without providing definitive proof of one person's philosophy or another.
  21. That's not what people mean when they say "Shooting so-and-so a message."
  22. I said to give him my email. Not my address.
  23. Do you mean Kepler 452b? If so, tell your brother: It has a high chance of being a terrestrial planet of near-Earth size; It lies right smack in the middle of the habitable zone, right where liquid water could exist; It orbits a G2V star very similar to our sun. It could be another Earth, and it could be an utterly lifeless ball of rock. We don't know, but so far it's the best lead we have in the search for life off our planet. There's nothing to be mad about here; scientists didn't just make up a bunch of numbers and calculate that Klingons were living there. All that's being said is that there's a world that could be like Earth, and maybe we should try taking a closer look at it. If he argues, give him my email and tell him I'm ready to hash this out like men. Oh, and your mom is one of those Christians who should realize that our God is way bigger than the solar system, and it's hardly our place to define where He could or couldn't have made life. Space belongs to Him, and if He chose to give part of it away to His lifeforms once He could most certainly do it again. Personally, I'd love to meet some fellow Children of God somewhere out in the universe--it'd be like meeting a long-lost sibling.
  24. I like ccstat's suggestion of making it about sweat. Though you shouldn't discount microorganisms; I could imagine a population of magical bacteria or protists could also have something to do with making Sunwater special.
