If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

another lurker said: God, I love halvah. I need to stay away from that shit, because I'll eat an entire block in one go. This! So much this!! I too can eat a whole block of halva in one go. I've made my own, but I cannot seem to get it as solid as the store bought -- it tends to be a bit too soft a...

Good rant.

And a waist line wider than a hip line.

Nothing says fit and ready to reproduce like ten-ton puffy knees.

Love those puffy knees!

There is an awful lot of Brussels Sprouts oppression going around here.

You know who you are.

...

Shame if something happened to your sauce pans.

Brive, I'm probably being a literalist sucker -- I often am --- but you aren't really all those folks are you? Ogvorbis!?!

comhcinc, I am really, really sorry to hear about the ongoing work hassles.

Heh, heh. Yes, yes. Of course it is! LOL.

NB: Um, this was in reference to Gumbers Stennoolioh comment. Which I somehow screwed up the, erm, sequence, ah, to, um ... ya.

I always knew there was something extra-special odd about Oolioh!

Yea, Gumbers! Lovely.

Slipterid said: ... is John Greg doing okay now? Is it a good time to send more cash? I am certainly in a better state than I was, and will even be able to have something of a good, if quiet, Christmas -- I've set aside some recent donations to cover a nice home-cooked Christmas dinner, including o...

C'mon, Matt C. Tell us what you really think about the Peezlord.

Pitch , condolences for your dad's state. It's a challenge you just don't want to have to face. On a side note, from my chair they don't want college grads either, unless you're under 40 and willing to work for much less than you're worth. Or if you're an accountant; everybody's hiring accountants,...

OMG! I missed this. Carrier also says: There is in fact no way to cut these articles, without removing evidence and arguments, and it is precisely such “missing evidence” and “missing arguments” that critics then pounce on to claim an article failed to make its point. Thus necessitating that no evid...

Heh, heh. Some commentor suggests that Richard CumSplashDamage Carrier hire an editor to tidy up his overlong, messy work; perhaps fellow blogger Gabriel McClown (http://freethoughtblogs.com/carrier/archives/9211#comment-1058421). Mitch Buchanan said: I am a longtime fan of both your books and your ...

Brive, what's going on with that TwitCap? Is Carrier replying to himself, about himself, while citing himself? Or something?

Or Ctrl > Alt > Delete, for the other new kids.

My system was doing this exact behaviour a couple of years ago. In my case it was, as has been proposed, due to too much dust and overheating.

Thank god for the 'pit consistently reminding me that however mad, shitty and desperate I may feel, I am still not Richard Carrier or Melody Hensley.

:pray:

That is all.

PZ and Cumbucket Carrier are retards.

Congrats, jimthepleb.

El Neener Neener has kicked in, finally. And we are now a balmy 13 °C (55 °F)

Sometimes I wish I was a functioning/functional human being.

I do.

Ape+lust , I know I am guilty of shining your apple and gilding your coin far too often, but, seriously, you slay me. Your 'shoops, et al., are just too fucking good. I mean I love Gumbers's work (and he is a first class wonderfull excellent lovely nice fella too!!!), and the Steen fishies are too,...

I've got spoons, forks, and knives.

Is there something wrong with me?

Service Dog, excellent news on the ridding on unwanted backhash. Bravo!

Service Dog said: Since-when is "the art world" NOT the domain of the wealthy & powerful? That sort of depends upon what is meant by the phrase "the art world". Almost all artists spend their lives in deep poverty -- not all, but almost all. So, in that sense, the art world, as seen from the point ...

LOL. My first laugh out loud today. Bravo!

Heya Phil, that Kamelot was interesting stuff. A bit, erm, "formal/theatrical" and too undynamic; not enough soft-to-loud emotive changes for me, maybe just a wee tad too sort of Uriah Heepish. But, yes, another really interesting and powerful voice, and yes, quite similar in timbre and tone to Corn...

Phil said: To be fair, Chris Cornell is a brilliant singer, grunge or not. I get a regular hard-on with You Know My Name (OST) No shit! He blows me away. When I first saw Casino Royale in the theatre, and the opening credits started, it raised goosebumps; his voice was so good. Man, I'd give anythi...

Pit killers abound and abide today!

paddybrown , I understand what you're saying (about the voices in Batman), but you might want to keep in mind that film-makers almost always loop (re-record) all spoken parts to ensure clarity, especially when clarity is a problem. So, no, the masks would not in any way have caused a problem with t...

Tribble said: I was WTF with Keaton. But I was pleasantly surprised and over time I think he ended up with just the right balance of good-guy, guy-with-issues. Yes, my thoughts almost exactly. Certainly better than Kilmer and Clooney whom put behind Adam West who was 95% camp. I've not seen, and pro...

Is this Batman vs. Superman story, the idea/concept, part of the canon (so to speak)? I mean, how could anyone, writer, fan, etc., think that a rich, athletic, hard working human being with no super powers of any kind whatsoever, could take on an indestructible (to all intents and purposes) alien be...

Same here.

An hilarious series of comments from Goobers McClown's I Hate Ophelia Alwayss!! post: SC (SaltyCurrent): Far too many people seem to be of the opinion that once someone is classified (rightly or wrongly) as somehow beyond the pale or outside the “moral community” – transphobic, misogynistic, racist,...

Nah.

I really should have said:

... of course, as we know from experiencing the Watsonian Method, the catch phrase "overwhelmingly white" might mean (depending on how much she wants to go to the particular event) that the acceptable level of white could be anywhere from 100% to 40% white(ish).

Hmmm.

Screwtape, well, what can I say. All the best for whatever that's worth.

This has been a bad year at the Pit. :cry:

No doubt it's original sin giving us the karmic comeuppence. :think:

Let me guess ... that club was in Thorold and this was back in in the 70's?

Nup. Vancouver, 5 different clubs, '86-'93.

Pitch, Gumby, and dog puke, condolences all around.

Brive , I niggered you (re. Chris Clarke's Hornbeck comment) and you didn't even acknowledge it! I am so ashamed. Andrew said: In my experience it was usually some fat old woman who had on so much scent that people without allergies who got near her would go rigid and keel over. During my short ten...

Chris Clarke, at Ophie's, on Dr. Professor Hornbeck non-PhD: Well, my suspicions are confirmed that Hornbeck will take any statement I may make as evidence of *Ophelia’s* perfidy. That’s one sick-ass motherfucker, I tell you what. :naughty: link: http://www.butterfliesandwheels.org/2015/greta-spots-...

coplones = colognes

Well, some people do have strong alergic-type reactions to colognes and perfumes. It seems to me that here in Canukistan there are a lot of public places that have some kind of ban or limitation on scent in place. I think; I'm not sure about that. It also seems to me that there has been, over the la...

Anyone here ever gone through the trouble of creating homeade flavor shave ice

If you're referring to fruit ice, as in a desert, then yes, I did. Lemon/lime mix. Don't forget the zest (grated peel), it's a very important flavouring addition.

So a bunch of doxxers are concerned about the leak of private information. Aww diddums.

Yes, as well as non-existent private information too. That's the game winner that one is. :doh:

Fuck me with a french pogo stick. Gabriel McClown is accusing Ophie of leaking private information from the FTB backchannel, private information that wasn't even there according to Gabriel McClown himself. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, fuck, these people are stuuuuupid! He is actually accusing Ophie of leaki...

Phil, I'll take two, please.

But because since medicine is shrouded under the guise of healing and science, its practices are often deemed “unbiased” (which is silly since nothing can be truly objective, I think). So, some querstions: 1. What is "since medicine"? Is that anything like quince jam? 2. When did healing and scienc...
