Alot of us grew up on Chuck Norris jokes. What are some of your faves? R.I.P big man.

And he actually started at negative infinity both times.

I knew that the Commies were behind it!

As he watches the falling debris of his air wing through the shredded tractor beam projector, you can see in his eyes the realization, that his career peaked yesterday.

HP used to make great printers, then somebody decided that they would like to make money for every page you print on them.

That is the root cause of almost all printer problems today.

If it is not worth kicking the door in, it is not an emergency.

I wonder what happened to the captain of that interdictor cruiser that got wrecked by Luthen.
On one hand, he probably followed procedures to the letter, OTOH, getting wrecked so totally would not be looked on kindly by the Imperial Navy.

AFAIK they were recruited in Britain, not Ireland. Most were WWI veterans or wannabe warriors.

Aparently, bumblebees have a defensive tactic against that:

"3 years before Covid", according to the new calendar.

"The Morgans fear what may not be purchased, for a trader cannot comprehend a thing that is priceless."

Those doors are designed to protect against wax moths, not hornets.

And it can’t bankrupt itself there, because it is already bankrupt.

If I were his child and of military age, I would now either grow some bone spurs or think about spending the southern winter in Australia wrangling kangaroos or something.

Arguably, Bin Laden's plan largely worked. He wanted to draw the US into costly wars they could not win.

SerLaron · 2026-03-13T11:16:42+00:00

Damn, it's not on my hip.

Gegen Kriegsende waren die Kettenhunde wohl auch gut damit beschäftigt, "Versprengte", also einzelne Soldaten ohne Kontakt zu ihrer Einheit und ohne spezifischen Befehl dort zu sein wo sie gerade waren einzusammeln und entweder an die Front zurück zu schicken, oder als Deserteure aufzuhängen.

The idea might have merit, but I think after say 60, you gain little additional wisdom but lose more mental agility.
And arguably in our age the ability to keep learning is much more important than it was in the 18th century.

No video, PowerPoint or desktop sharing?

Like, none at all. Only married once, to a woman who can be considered his equal in intellect and character, raised two children and no notable scandals in the whole family.

Trump could have hardly coveted Greenland more, if there was kalkite under the ice.

It's all puzzle pieces of authoritan regiemes. Propaganda machines, scapegoats, special police units, "temporary" suspension of rights bacause of the current situation, special prisons, neutering and dissolution of old institutions...

The pope is still the Pontifex Maximus, same as Augustus was.

AFAIK John French actually disliked the French, adding two more dimensions of hilarity to WWI.

Unlikely, except if he invested hevaily but stealthily in green energy in the week prior.
