How often do people take photos of their real dolls booty hole? Also I bet there's a whole real doll accessory market full of creepy stuff like this. Now I have a creepy mental image of some guy putting make-up on his doll and ughhh.

Surge or nothing. :colbert:

Why do people think Surge has anything to do with Mountain Dew? It was a much more citrus-y, almost Fresca-like flavor. The marketing was reminiscent, but the soda itself wasn't a knockoff.

The chips seem like Lay's (American) chips with Chinese (?) labels, but the papers in the background are in Japanese.
Though I didn't get the "funny" part of the image anyway, so...

There is a tray inside the tube, necessitating even SMALLER chips for no reason except superfluous packaging.



VVVV Fair enough. Still seems wasteful to me; I've never had a problem getting chips/crisps out of a tube, and there's definitely a bait-and-switch element to the chip/crisp size.

SPACE HOMOS posted:

Most animals that have receptors outside of the visible spectrum are for the UV spectrum. So its not so much colors we can't perceive but different forms of light we normally don't notice.


It could also be colors we can't perceive, though.

Example: A flower and a painting of a flower can look the same to human eyes, because we've mixed the pigments in the paint so that they excite our red, green, and blue receptors the same way. But there might be subtle differences in other parts of the visible spectrum, such that a butterfly wouldn't be fooled. The same way a non-colorblind person can detect the differences between subtly different greens in the traditional "colorblindness tests".

Does anyone know where I can get big googly-eyes?

Like...a foot wide, or more? They are some billboards near me that need...uhh..."fixing."

Edit: Now that I think about it, I'd have to drive at least an hour to find some drat billboards, and no promises they'd have people on them. drat this state!

If anyone else is planning to vandalize a billboard, note that they're probably not going to jiggle much up there. Just make some big eyes out of posterboard.

We're planning on buying a house soon, and I'm so totally doing this somewhere. That link looks like a mold for pouring concrete or something in though, not floor tiles.

Looks like those tiles are just made of laser-cut wood. Plenty of places do custom laser cutting, and if you are getting enough done to cover a whole floor, it might not even be outrageously expensive. This has the added benefit that you could pick a different tessellation if you so chose.

May I ask that you consider that the yearbook editor might not have allowed the coded message if it were in plain text? The humor comes from putting one over on "the man" as well as subverting expectations by a young woman expressing desire to "gently caress bitches."

Thus concludes my dissertation on that joke you didn't get.

Wrong. The king was actually given a lion pelt, and wanted to get it mounted. The taxidermist had never seen a lion before and had only a vague idea of what one looked like.

I thought this as well, but there are conflicting accounts. One way or the other, the taxidermist was not given an intact animal, so I think this version is more plausible. The "pet lion" version seems a bit like an urban legend.
