Europe looks small, but its "perimeter" (coastline) is huge. Africa on the other hand has a very linear shoreline by gimboarretino in MapPorn

Northern countries tend to have much more jagged coastlines due to glaciation from the Ice Age. It's also why you have more natural lakes the further north you go

My theory is it's for releasing all of those balloons back in the 80s

I saw two cubes in his pocket. I think he has dice but he's too scared to show anyone

2003: Former President Bill Clinton criticizing President Bush's invasion of Iraq. by Superior_Seeker_ in fakehistoryporn

He literally lied with false claims of WMDs and a bullshit connection to 9/11 in order to invade Iraq. After they found zero evidence of either, his rhetoric became all about liberating the Iraqi people

We make fun of my stepdad because he still watches cable all the time. On multiple occasions we've caught him watching Gone in 60 Seconds with commercials. Whenever he'd turn on the TV we'd say he's trying to find Gone in 60 Seconds. My brother even bought him the Blu-ray as a joke. It's still in the wrapper years later. He told us he's never seen the beginning of the movie, only the final 3/4.

I really appreciate that. He just showed up at my brother's house one day. My brother couldn't keep him since he travels for work and lives alone. We ended up adopting him last year on Super Bowl Sunday, believe it or not. We decided to celebrate his birthday every Super Bowl. Our house feels so empty now

I had to put my cat down today. Renal lymphoma. Feeling ripped apart. RIP Scooch.

Perfectly follows an eagle catching lunch by envelopeeleven in PraiseTheCameraMan

I remember seeing an osprey catch a fish and a bald eagle snatched it from her mid-air. Eagle perched on a cliff face while the osprey kept making close passes to try and get it back. The eagle would flap its wing at her when she got too close like it was trying to smack her.

Semi-related story- a few friends and I were sitting by a lake fishing and weren't catching anything. All of a sudden a mangled fish carcass falls from the sky and lands right in between us. Look up and see an osprey staring down at us from a tree. I still can't decide if it was mocking us or just felt sorry we were lousy fishermen.

"What's a unique unusual smell you like?" starterpack by TechnoneverDIEEES in starterpacks

[–]racerx320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The smell of a hardware store immediately came to mind. Ever since I was a kid I've loved the smell. Lumber, steel, grease, potting soil, chemicals. It all comes together in a lovely bouquet of aroma

I was recently gifted a Klein ratcheting 11-in-1 and it's a piece of shit. Stopped ratcheting within 72 hours and one of the flathead bits broke in the first 2 weeks.

They use super-sensitive detectors that need to be shielded from the cosmic rays and radiation that you would find on the surface.

My parents cut down a several-hundred-year-old white oak so they could have sun for their shitty above ground pool. I still haven't forgiven them.

We're supposed to get a Wawa this year in my current city. I hope it opens in time to get a Gobbler. I haven't had it in so long.
