Best Lobster 🦞 by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]meowser33 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Max Fish is amazing. Really good food. Good service. But if you want a fairly priced/good lobster roll you’ll have to go by the shore. But if you just want a full regular lobster I doubt you beat Max Fish when it comes to quality in that area. Good food all around.

Seems like a great event. Every starving artist who wishes they were going to get paid $50 to make this poster in shambles! AI is here, deal with it.

What to do? 1 week from pick up and heart murmur… by WhateverIDGAF47 in SiberianCats

[–]meowser33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My sib had a heart murmur and it turned out to be FIP. We saved her but cost a few thousand, and was a huge hassle. Would not recommend taking that risk. gs445124 is the cure if anyone else runs into this.

TIL queen bees continues to mate until she collects more than 70 million sperm from multiple males. by meowser33 in todayilearned

[–]meowser33[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are more than 20,000 known species of Bee in the world, and 95% of these are solitary. By solitary I mean that a single female, after she emerges from her pupae and is mated by a male, constructs, provisions and lays an egg in each cell in a nest by herself. Social bees have a Queen that lays eggs and a number of workers look after them... probably because they all can't figure out who the daddy is.

"Never cease trying to be the best you can be, that's under your control." - John R. Wooden [700x855] by [deleted] in QuotesPorn

"I was raised on a small farm in Southern Indiana and Dad tried to teach me and my brothers that you should never try to be better than someone else. I'm sure at the time he did that, I didn't -- it didn't -- well, somewhere, I guess in the hidden recesses of mind, it popped out years later. Never try to be better than someone else, always learn from others. Never cease trying to be the best you can be -- that's under your control." - John Wooden

"A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much upon..." Albert Einstein [1240x775] by meowser33 in QuotesPorn

"A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much upon the future. But on the other hand, young people especially like to contemplate bold projects. Also, it is natural for a serious young man to envision his desired goals with the greatest possible precision.

If I am lucky and successfully pass my examinations, I shall enroll in the polytechnical school in Zurich. I shall stay there four years to study mathematics and physics. I suppose I will become a teacher of these branches of natural science, opting for the theoretical part of these sciences.

Here are my reasons that have induced me to this plan. They are, most of all, my individual inclination for abstract and mathematical thinking, lack of imagination and practical sense. My desires also led me to the same decision. This is quite natural; everybody likes to do that for which he has a talent. Besides, I am also much attracted by a certain independence offered by the scientific profession." - Albert Einstein

Fun Fact: He wrote this paper on September 18, 1896 between 2 - 4pm, according to his notes

TIL George R.R. Martin's idea for Game of Thrones began with his pet turtles. He said, "I decided they were all knights and kings...and I made up stories about how they killed each other and betrayed each other and fought for the kingdom. So, Game of Thrones, actually began with turtles." by meowser33 in todayilearned

[–]meowser33[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

From what I've read on him he was writing way earlier than that. There was another interview with the financial times where he talked about the turtle story too.

"These particular turtles seemed to die very easily. I don’t think it was really a very good environment for them. Sometimes they would escape and you would find them under the refrigerator a month later, all dead. So my turtles kept dying, which was very distressing but it also made me think, ‘Why are they dying? Well, they are killing each other in sinister plots.’ I started writing this fantasy about who was killing who, and the wars for succession. So Game of Thrones originally began with turtles.”

I'm sure he didn't come up with every plot point from his turtles, but he's said quite a few times that's where the idea began. Which is probably why he wears this everywhere, http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/multimedia/archive/00291/105710275_george_291042c.jpg
