It’s funny, because alabama (or maybe a part of it?) has (had?) the highest density of Ph.D.s in the country because of research and government (I think a NASA facility). I wonder, with our current bullshit about research funding and our government’s anti-truth approach to things that don’t make companies money, if there is already a notable reduction in educated folks in these already education-barren locations.

I think my dream is more along the lines of the internationale, and many hanging with red necks.

My first thought was that the comic was intentionally riffing on death’s door, where you have a raven/crow/black bird (oh god, unidan’s coming!) collecting souls.

If you’re throwing out the pasta water, you’re wasting some very good stock to make the sauce you’ll put on said pasta.

I just want to know the evidence for the motorcycles. Is it really a “stockpile” of them, or is he a rich bitch and likes motorcycles like jay leno likes cars?

solid minority, really. Isn’t the ‘revolution’ numbers often quoted at 1% fighting, 3% support?

Traffic tickets blur the line between the civil/criminal courts. Especially in my state, where both speeding and the lowest level of assault will put you before the same judge. Since the lowest criminal charges don’t carry potential for jail time, even in the effect they have it’s difficult to tease out their differences.

seagull is so much better though, because you can charge the client for the proctology AND the gynecology!

I wish people would remember that the real crux was lincoln’s assassination. Everything since has been downhill, for america at least. Can you imagine if the traitors had actually been hanged? No jim crow laws? No fucking bullshit…

I would bet that a great many heads of ‘large companies’ would be targeted in the first purge. There’s no way that there isn’t some disgruntled employee or even an ex-employee that wouldn’t be willing to take a swing at the big guy before poverty comes in for the kill.

Anyway, I doubt most people would get violent. Most people aren’t just held back by laws, but morality

I’ll be honest here, mate, I think we’ve seen that a very large portion of the population would be more than happy to get violent. It’s mostly the ones who scream about laws needing to enforce morality on ‘the heathens.’

Something, something, biology.

If it’s the average western diet, it’s probably from the massive amount of toilet paper that was used to clean the asshole after their failure to use a bidet.

And here I was, thinking my lemmy feed was the sign of me being hip and youthful…

Well, that was the perspective of the people I spoke to and read of, so it’s how I interpret the stories I was told.

If it’s an actual superpower, it would pair well with the ‘send folks minds back in time’ chica. Perfect one-two combo.

Who is still using a 7+1 gun these days? Are we in the fucking pacific islands shooting colt .45s at the japanese? Get yourself an extended 300+1 drum mag that slots into your automatic glock you’ve taken from the secret service or something.

Sounds like a good business plan, honestly. Sell the idea to people that they get their massage by doing the person in front of them. You sit back and rake in the money as your customers do all the work, and you only have to do the last person of the day.

The european death knot usually works pretty well. Or you could use a weaver’s knot, but it’s not as bulky. The ‘overhand’ family of knots is a pretty good bet for whenever you want a knot that absolutely will not come untied under tension.

I don’t think you bastardized it. It’s becoming standard ‘english’ to manipulate participles and verbs into nouns by adding the ‘er,’ which makes me exceptionally grumpy in some crosswords. I just couldn’t find anything that said ‘bike shedder’ specifically so I wanted to make sure.
