I wondered about this for a second or two.



If a shark could attack a swimming kangaroo, and camels can swim, well, the world is a pretty big place, chances are decent a shark has attacked a camel.

It wasn't until last year that I learnt that some types of shark like the bull shark can survive for some time in fresh water. They're just that drat smooth.

E: Terrible snipe.

I don't know why we should honor the pretentious college and its pretentious town on the name of this very useful usage of a comma. I will die before I call it an 'oxford' comma. It is the people's comma. Suck my balls, Oxford.

Let's name it after somewhere much less prestigious

Also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eats,_Shoots_%26_Leaves more generally

I don't know if its :thejoke: but the latter is mis-use of commas.
That should be a colon or nothing if its implied that JFK and Stalin are the strippers.
Adding a comma makes it a list, anyone who claims otherwise is making this a strawman to justify the ridiculous further abuse of the humble comma.

Actually look closer, it's a 10, just the line graph inexplicably goes higher in some local maxima that somehow exist between endurance and rank, and rank and courage

Cybertron is not only the home planet of the 'formers but also their creator, Primus. I'd say he ranks higher than Optimus Prime.

Jesus, that thing is gigantic - I have a Unicron figure that was released I want to say around 10-11 years ago that's pretty big but I never thought they'd scale up THAT much. I'd be afraid of breaking it or losing pieces, good lord.

Raul Julia is wonderful, even in Overdrawn at the Memory Bank. The world is shittier for his absence. He and Angelica Huston as Gomez and Morticia Addams might unironically be one of the top 5 the most loving, least toxic couples in film. :allears:

Raul Julia was the only one who knew what kind of movie they were making and played his role appropriately. Meanwhile, JCVD was so coked up, it's possible he didn't realise a movie was happening. Also the original cut got an age rating too low for the market they were aiming for, so they had him record a few more swears.
