clicked "random article" four times and got this:the water-generating windmill that THEY don't want you to know about! posted:Since its introduction to the public in 2007, there has been a dearth of new information regarding the Whisson windmill. Most substantive writings occurred between 2007 and 2009. Whisson was at that time seeking private capital to develop and produce his invention. Whether that lack of current news and information is indicative of failure of the concept, of the inventor’s desire to keep particulars about his device away from the eyes of competitors, or something else, is unknown. Other inventors and companies have fielded instruments to extract water from air to varying degrees of success. this is seriously the beginning of the article posted:The Whisson Windmill is a device that extracts clean drinking water from the atmosphere. It does this by drawing air in past a fan, whose blades are cooled by refrigerant. Because the blades are cooler than the air, water in the air condenses into a liquid, which is collected. It was invented by Max Whisson, a retired medical specialist who lives in Australia.[1] Whisson’s invention was spurred by observations of the Stenocara gracilipes beetle of the Namib desert.

Strike 7: On Saturday morning, June 25, 1977, Sullivan was struck while fishing in a freshwater pool. The lightning hit the top of his head, singeing his hair, and traveled down burning his chest and stomach. Sullivan turned to his car and then another unexpected thing happened—a bear appeared and tried to steal trout from his fishing line. Sullivan had the strength and courage to strike the bear with a tree branch. He claimed that this was the twenty-second time he hit a bear with a stick in his lifetime.[4]

that "ghoti" thing is stupid as hell. weird pronounciation of words in english is because we stole so many words from other languages, they have etymologies that can be traced back to wherever we got them from. you can't just throw sounds together, match them with letters and say that it's a word that follows the rules just because those sounds are represented with those letters in some other word. anyone who quotes "ghoti is pronounced the same as fish guys!" isnt half as clever as they think they are. basically what I'm saying is "ghoti" is the xkcd of language criticism.

that always bugged me cause like yeah, those letters do make those sounds sometimes, but find me literally any other word where the gh is at the beginning and makes a f sound, or where the word ends in "ti" with no following letters and makes a ʃ. i don't think any others exist at all. like, phonetics aren't context-free, geez
