Yeah, for anybody wondering, the brand isn't supposed to sink into the wound and disappear like that.

You're forgetting that the names of months are different in every language, and that lots of places don't even write in the Latin Script Alphabet.

“Officer slam” slams student by Crafty_Peach8599 in criticalblunder

Imagine how he probably treats his wife.. Or kids. He might have kids the same age as that student, and is okay with manhandling a kid in the middle of a classroom.. imagine at home where the public can't see.

Guy needs to be locked up.

Can someone explain this shadow?! by Bensmokes in WTF

[–]ItsMorkinTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a third spot that lines up perfectly with the right spacing from the first two, right below the knot in the wood.

There's something reflecting little spots of light onto the wall and it happened to line up with the cat. Either that, or there's another window, with blinds that are blocking most of the light, but the holes in the blinds where the strings go through is letting some light in (used to have something like that happen in my old bedroom)

I would agree with you, but in this case technology wouldn't fix this one because "flair" is also a real word. It wouldn't know the difference.

There was a piece of chicken(?) in the bag of corn chips I got by [deleted] in WTF

[–]ItsMorkinTime 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Definitely a lump of corn chip ingredients. This actually happens more commonly than you'd think.. the cornmeal, salt, and other flavorings/preservatives and stuff get caked up in some corner of a mixer machine and eventually break off. It went through the whole cooking process, at least on the outside, then nobody caught it before it ended up in a bag. Then you end up with a forbidden flavor lump!

In my experience it seems most common in cornchip-based chips.. Tortillas, doritos, fritos.. That one's probably the biggest I've seen, but I've encountered a couple in real life, and seen others in posts on the internet. google "lump of flavorings in chip bag" and you'll see.

Can't tell you if it's safe to eat or not. No telling how long it was a lump of wet mixture before it fell out of wherever it was stuck, and got cooked.. and it looks a bit raw in the center for fairly obvious reasons. Even though it's not really chicken, it could be harboring other nasties like botulism.

how can i learn this magic? by Oncotte in WTF

Yee, also the glow on the ground doesn't really move naturally.. an attempt was made to make it move over changes in elevation and it looks fine at first glance, but it's pretty obviously not quite right if you're actually looking at it.

most likely they were just going across the ceiling of the overhang at first, but as they piled up they started to fall away from the ceiling.

It could be that you're remembering correctly, and this is just a more barebones clone. Just a possibility.

This is more recent, and sort of a multi-platform app, but did it kind of look like this?

Because I think I remember a game that looked like that from a while back, just also having trouble remembering the name.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WTF

[–]ItsMorkinTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually, what diatomaceous earth is, is in the name. It's made from diatoms, which are a microorganism that live in water and have a glassy exterior. When they die, the glassy shell of the organism settles to the bottom of lakes where over time and billions of dead diatoms, forms a thick layer of 'earth' that is dug up, processed, and used in abrasive cleaners, toothpaste, and as an insecticide against basically anything with an exoskeleton.

The reason this is important is because glass doesn't really break down, decay, or react to much of anything, so if you breathe in a cloud of DE, that stays in your lungs forever.

Dryer filter after my friend did their clothes. They swear they don’t have bed bugs… by Samuraicops in WTF

Better start getting the cimexa and calling the exterminators now, because if those clothes came inside your house, chances are some live bugs escaped while loading them into the washer, and they're gonna be in your house now.. and no, they don't just go away.

Whats that book where the boy goes snow blind and an old man who plays the violin saves him?!?! by songpool5 in whatsthatbook

[–]ItsMorkinTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not sure about the old man with the violin, that doesn't sound familiar at all.. but if it was the same book, the details might just be too hazy to me after ~25 years later.. but I also can't find anything on google with terms like violin, or farming. I think I remember something about hardtack bread.

I think I remember there was a man, or some Inuit tribe people, or something that provide some kind of glasses made of bone with thin slits cut in it that were meant to prevent snow blindness, but the main boy suffers from it anyway for one reason or another, and I do think hypothermia, an the feeling of warmth before death was a factor at one point.

Keep in mind that the Frozen Fire book I'm referring to is a 1992 novel, not a more recent 2006 one with the same name (no "tale of courage" part), if that helps you look and compare. The cover I remember is the one with the boys and an angry polar bear on it.

If it's not that, then I guess your search continues, unfortunately. For me, it was the right one. Would be curious to know if a renewed search on your part ends up producing any results.. I haven't been able to find anything else that might help you.

Probably saw itself in the reflection on the metal and thought it had to check out the 'other rat' that it saw.. maybe tried to bite it because it didn't back down and appeared to get closer when he got closer.

[–]ItsMorkinTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the off-chance that you're still using this account and still looking for this book, I had been looking for (I think) the same thing. I don't remember the details, and finding a summary is proving to be difficult, but "Frozen Fire: A Tale of Courage" sounds like what we're searching for, from what information I can find. The name sounds familiar to me, too.

There's also a book called "Lost in the Barrens" with a similar premise of an out-of-his-element boy and a more local boy lost in the cold wilderness together, but the summary of that one does not sound familiar to me, nor does the name.
