That baby looks at least a year old. 12+9 months=21 months. He probably knocked her up long before he was deployed.

Well, the baby would have to be a minimum of 5 months old, and it looks right there. So it's probably his baby.

But he'd have to have sex with her 9 months before the baby was born, and 9 months ago he was out on the sea.

The baby is about 5 or 6 months old. 9 + 5 = 14, the number of months he was out at sea. Get it yet?

What if you could play a brand-new game for free with interstitial ads like this every, say, 20 minutes? Or you could opt out of the ads all together by buying the game? It's pretty revolutionary, as it involves the target of the ad in a way no other ad I've ever seen does. Companies that are already super saturated with ads (like McDonald's, Coke, etc.) will pounce on this idea.

Sorry for the derail, here's a funny picture:

Square Enix is actually doing something just like this. You earn time to play games by watching an ad. Right now there are several options but one is a 1min 15second ad that gives you 25 minutes of gameplay. You can also watch several ads in a row to add up more time. Right now it's only one game, Hitman: Bloodmoney, but still very cool idea. http://beta.coreonline.com/

Anyways, sorry for the extended derail, just thought it was interesting. Have a Chinese Cowboy

This was hilarious because it was the equivalent of spamming reports with narwhals on a forum that takes its reports seriously. There was a "sequel" where five people circumvented the one-post-per-30-seconds limit on spamming by alternating posting narwhal threads in the support forum until it was bumping threads off the active topic list and essentially archiving them
