I came across this on Youtube.  Only 4 minutes.  Pretty good.

Islamic sex dolls.  Do they blow themselves up?

I'd seen this before.  Might have been a link from APS.  Funny stuff, worth watching again.
And no, it wasn't the Masons or Trump.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

I saw the T-Rex and immediately knew what the punch line was going to be, but it was fun seeing how they got there. :D

There was an old Ren & Stimpy cartoon where they toured the natural history muzeum and were speculating hallucinating about how all the dinosaurs died.  The best theory was they all hiccupped, sneezed, and farted at the same time and exploded.  Then their tour guide (the janitor) admitted that he did it, he killed them all.   :lol:

Plot hole?

How did they get the onscreen paw / hand / appendage print in the first place?

Detail otherwise outstanding.  I especially liked the way the "shock wave" of the big guy's footsteps spread through the crowd at 1:49ff.

(You can see the actual "iridium layer" of the Chicxulub impact on the earth's surface a couple of miles east of Denver.  Not the only place in the world, but it's our very own place to see it.)

If I had Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk money, I'd spend a good chunk on it secretly launching satellites and space probes made to look like they're 65 million years old, and have their appearance suggest they were launched by DASA.

Dinosaur Aeronautics and Space Administration.

That and scatter crumpled beer cans and cigarette butts around on Mars near likely human landing sites.
I promise not to duck.

Sample of rock showing the actual iridium layer (greenish band in the photo.)



The long story of the discovery of the crater is a fascinating scientific tale.
