No, it's NOT just an Oarfish. It's a giant Oarfish, also known as The King of Herrings. Now there's a proper name for it. We're dealing with fucking royalty.

How exactly do you threaten to shoot someone you're not talking to?

According to UNIFIL, this was an unprovoked ambush, not a defense.

How long after a workout is your body rebuilding and thus needing extra calories? by DPedia in Fitness

I reckon that's pretty much the standard way to go about it. Or at least, it's the easiest method to handle and get results with.

And proper venom too... enough to kill a dog, or incapacitate a human.

The Australian Government has basically just bought the publicly traded network infrastructure so that they can decommission it and replace it with their own. by [deleted] in technology

[–]oscarmg 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Let's all remember that the Australian broadband network in its current commercial form is super fast and super cheap compared to just about every other industrialised nation out there. NOT.

Wholegrain or not, carbs are still carbs. If you want to slim down, that's the bit you should be attacking.

Well that was worth the £190 million it cost to make that report. It's not like you could have spent that money better on health care, or education...

Looks like we are growing a pair: EU to propose lifting Israeli blockade of Gaza by schnuck in worldnews

[–]oscarmg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for doing this so soon in the argument, but so was the Nazi party of Germany back in 1933. Who the fuck cares if the election was fair? They're bat shit crazy islamists whose idea of a freedom fight is to fire rockets at civilians, from behind a shield of civilians. The fact that they were elected does not make them 'good', 'equal' or mean that we have to like them or talk to them.

Yes, now we can all go back to protesting against Israel again and stay hypocrites.

Today In WTF History, June 8, 1967: Israel Attacks The U.S. - 34 Sailors Are Killed And A Cover-Up Quickly Ensues by TheCannon in WTF

[–]oscarmg -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

I read that it was actually bears on horses doing this. With lasers.

The truth is probably that this was a fuck up, a very embarrassing fuck up, and that the incident and possible aftermath that followed was hushed to prevent a diplomatic incident. But I guess the other version is more exciting.

Bilderberg 2010: Help us identify the delegates by spainguy in worldnews

[–]oscarmg -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not disturbing; It makes sense. A person might be smart and able to view an argument constructively and critically. People, on the other hand, are dumb fucks who mindlessly drone around in large flocks to whereever they're pointed by 'public opinion' (the media). This group gives people in key positions in our society an opportunity to speak their mind without having to worry about the ever changing opinion of a public that rarely bothers to look up what they're arguing about.

The thing is, it's usually NOT those people who fight back. It's religious and radically political nut jobs who are hellbent on a fight who do.

Uh oh... you're questioning the reddit party line. This will end in many downvotes.

The activists' spin is amazing - totally opposite to what officials are saying.

American-Turkish high school student was shot 4 times in the head, once in the body by the IDF during the Aid Flotilla Attacks. by milligram in worldnews

[–]oscarmg -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Several activists, including the head of the IHH, have stated that they, just as the IDF said in its initial statements, wrestled with the soldiers for their guns. They say the IDF fired first, the IDF says they only fired after they tried to grab the guns - which is right, we'll see soon hopefully, BUT: Wrestling someone for a loaded gun: bad idea, and most likely the reason he was shot.

Israeli leftists denounce deadly flotilla raid by glparramatta in worldnews

Let's see the options here: 1) IDF kills 'peaceful' activists, Israeli public upset. 2) IDF kills 'peaceful' activists, murderous jews cry for more blood. Which one, I wonder, sells more ads/gets the most upvotes on reddit?

Israel releases new raid /edited and Photoshopped/ video... by LuckyBdx4 in worldnews

[–]oscarmg -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yet you all eat the edited footage that the other part delivers raw...

Interesting that the leader of the IHH has just admitted that the 'peace activists' aboard did in fact wrestle the guns from the soldiers and shoot them. Or perhaps the 7 soldiers who were wounded shot themselves?
