  1. I thought it was a crime to traffic in biological weapons?
  2. I'm not sure many people would have heard of Thor and Odin were it not for Marvel.
  3. You have to reprogram the simulator so that it's possible to rescue the freighter.
  4. Or, sorry, maybe you should have had the kobold use protection?
  5. Shouldn't you have used protection regardless?
  6. Watchmen was about as close to the graphic novel as they could have pulled off, I thought. The one difference was that they left out Ozymandias' ending.
  7. Yes. But not merely the conventional way. In my case, capitalization will be total. I shall be EMPEROR. With the period as well, for additional emphasis.
  8. Because that character, along with his friends, was invented in a less enlightened time and today, that group of characters does not accurately reflect the makeup of modern society.
  9. To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women!
  10. "We" started naming winter storms when the Weather Channel decided they needed to sensationalize weather. When I am crowned emperor, those jackasses will be put up against the wall and shot. Right next to the guys who started capitalizing "Realtor" as though it were a royal title.
  11. Once located, Planet IX will be very useful for interstellar slingshot trajectories. It will also have excellent solido projector technology. In fact, massively upscaled no-room technology will turn out to be the reason we have not yet observed the planet directly.
  12. The grease on the shaft bearing seals had worn off, so they would rub when the bearing got up to operating temps, causing a harmonic vibration.
  13. The pants don't make you look fat. The fat is what makes you look fat.
  14. I was surprised and intrigued by the trailer. Admittedly I have no prior experience with Suicide Squad so I had no preconceived notions. I do wonder how they're going to get enough screen time for all of them though.
  15. Because it was stapled to the chicken!
  16. Good heavens, what if someone takes him up on that challenge?
  17. You think anyone would listen to you?
  18. Seamanship? Not samurai or swordsman or spearman or sergeant-at-arms or sniper?
