The McRib was invented by an "animal scientist" and a "fine dining chef". You ever seen The Wire? You know how D'Angelo is like "nobody remembers who made the mcnugget" well one of the people who invented the McRib also invented the McNugget.

Now with less breakage.

Norway launched Teletext service and got the .no domain, and ARPANET moved to TCP/IP. M*A*S*H ended, Swatch watches were introduced, and the US launched its first woman into space, a mere twenty years after the USSR.

You know, these are not that stupid. More in the spirit of the thread: The McNugget was introduced.

Was there this sort of interlude where a deeper robot voice would be like "You gotta get it, you gotta get it"?

I don't remember. It was one song on a cassette tape we had like 25 years ago. We took it on a family camping holiday and it was the only music we had with us so it got played constantly. The cassette also had The Safety Dance, Total Eclipse of the Heart, Can't Hurry Love (the phil collins version), and Moonlight Shadow by Mike Oldfield. There was another voice on the song that occasionally said "sex cry" or possibly "sex crime" (thats a very 1985 thing, by the way) or possibly something else that's nothing at all like those words.

These dudes, the elders, gave Gilgamesh advice for his journey. Gilgamesh then visited his mother, the goddess Ninsun, who seeked the support and protection of the sun-god Shamash for their adventure. Ninsun adopted Enkidu as her son, and Gilgamesh left instructions for the governance of Uruk in his absence.

The Morris worm or Internet worm of November 9, 1988, was one of the first computer worms distributed via the Internet, and the first to gain significant mainstream media attention. It also resulted in the first felony conviction in the US under the 1986 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.[1] It was written by a graduate student at Cornell University, Robert Tappan Morris, and launched on November 2, 1988, from the computer systems of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
