A few years after Batman gained popularity, Orson Welles expressed interest for wanting to direct a Batman film. Had this actually happened, Gregory Peck would have been cast as The Dark Knight.

The Indigo Snake is the largest native North American snake. And it is one of the preferred species for strippers.

Quick question when you have turned from green back to normal skin colour...
When you feel like you are in hulk mode inside, could this be some sort of meltdown?


I think it's probably poor anger management skills , I was a lot worse when I was younger , punching brick walls & smashing up my personal property so I had nothing. I get close to throwing my PC through the window but usually just kill a mouse or a keyboard. I seem to punish myself when in a rage.

Thanks for the reply. :)

I learned that when someone's eye is hurt, they cant reply to PMs on forums, not because they're ignoring me.

I learned you can't get case management services from St. Vincent dePaul if you aren't in the Dusk to Dawn program.

The word "incel" and a website for people of any gender who felt lonely or depressed for being incel was originally created by a *female* university student in Canada. It was not meant to be a hate site.

Just like the Nazis and their Swastika that they ripped off from various spiritual symbols, modern incels took something that was harmless and turned it into an icon of hatred. :x

The motto on the very first official United States coin was "Mind Your Business."

I should also be myself on WP as well. I'll be a lot happier.

Owls look very, very creepy with all their feathers removed. 8O

Chickens still look like chickens without their feathers. Owls look like bony little demon birds. :lol:

Every day I learn how to work less and at the same time make more money. But I don't get any result :?

Ball pythons have teeth and will bite.

No, I didn't get bitten by one, I just said something at a pet store about knowing a constrictor wasn't going to bite and was corrected by an employee.

OOAK on Ebay stands for "One Of A Kind".

Well, I noticed it being used whenever I looked at hand-made or customized dolls and stuffed animals, but I didn't really know what it stood for until now.
:duh:

McDonald's is not the world's largest restaurant chain. Subway is.

That "Billy the Heretic" is possibly the most evil web comic ever written. It's also very badly drawn and often doesn't make sense.

In case you don't know already, the comic is about a blonde non-Jewish kid who gets adopted by a Jewish family because of a mix-up at the adoption agency. The "writer" is an American Neo-Nazi and the "artist" is an Irish white supremacist living in the states. Enough said.

There are 3 species of freshwater seals in the world. One of them, the Saimaa Ringed Seal, lives only in a landlocked lake in Finland.
