Comment preview: I have quite a few... Blue hand prints on the walls. Tobias with the Dr. House plate because David Cross lost that role to Hugh Laurie. When they talk about cutting the housing order back it references Fox cutting the number of shows in the seasons ther ....
Comment preview: To those who are unfamiliar with the thrill of Easter Egg hunting, essentially all I was looking to accomplish was getting into an area I wasn't supposed to be in. You generally aren't allowed onto rooftops in Skyrim, but while messing around I found out ....
Comment preview: For anybody that doesn't want to read the whole link: >The two of them headed to a local steakhouse for dinner, and then went back to Martin's house afterwards, where the two chatted about comic books, medieval military strategies, and obscure character ....
Comment preview: We know whatever we can see. Some of what we know we know because we can *literally see it*, like with our own eyeballs through magnification. The rest comes from using machines to "see" light that our eyes aren't sensitive to, like radio. So basically, we ....
Comment preview: >...I am terribly disgusted in some of the things that have gone on the past few days regarding her. Maybe she's been spamming, maybe not. The admins have already stated that she has done nothing against the terms and rules of reddit. She has not cheate ....
Comment preview: Dude, your obscure playthroughs were the fucking best. I've been around since the pixel zombie game you played, the name escapes me, but you've supported those developers. I've bought many of the games you've played since you make them look so fun to play. ....
Comment preview: My go to is Astor Wines in NYC. Some of the things I like * They have a website with mostly up to date stock. I have to go out of my way to get there so the fact that I can check on obscure bottles is a huge win. I will just go there to buy a bottle if ....
Comment preview: * What's your the best cover ever: Johnny Cash's Hurt or Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah? * What version of eugenics is your most controversial opinion ever? * Girls of reddit: Say things that I can masturbate to. * If your username was a tool, how many times wo ....
Comment preview: There is no real-life context. If this had any significance in real life, people would be out in the real world *doing it*, instead of spending months modeling it in a computer lab so they can publish it in an obscure journal and prove they're making vital ....
Comment preview: For starters, the fact that Black Science Man and Carl Sagan are being lumped with the likes of Newton and Einstein is ridiculous. I don't mean to demean the work they have done, like the Transit of Venus, but at the end of the day they're both best known ....

Comment preview: ? You obviously weren't alive in the early 90s. Nirvana was the biggest rock band around, a band so big they almost single-handedly changed popular music in the span of a year or two. Then, at the height of popularity, the frontman killed himself. The gr ....
Comment preview: Thank you so much. The toughest Iron Chef ingredient I had were things that were not protein, like milk, coffee, butter, that you usually use within a dish, but they had to be the star of the dish. So those were the most challenging types of ingredients, v ....
Comment preview: Because typically things that are popular appeal to what is called "the lowest common denominator." Say there is a popular movie. I love movies, and sometimes popular movies are very good, but generally if it is popular it makes me think that it's primary ....
Comment preview: > One of the cops was a racist - that makes him an asshole, but that doesn't make any of the evidence illegitimate. It's commonly believed that the police screwed up the case by planting evidence. Basically, they framed a guilty man. But the evidence ....
Comment preview: Treat holocaust denial like a conspiracy theory. Not to equate Truthers with Deniers, but they use many of the same tricks. They will cite experts you likely have never heard of and wouldn't know how to refute. They will throw some obscure and unverifiable ....
Comment preview: Ever seen [this comic?](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-e2e949gSouk/TYv8_JXnCaI/AAAAAAAAAXU/PgF5Ro7Lgm4/s1600/dumbbitchcomix.jpg) It's something I never signed or put a URL on, and it's the only comic I've done that's gone viral. Quite a while ago it was a fro ....
Comment preview: Crosswords often have bad clues because the clues aren't supposed to be the only thing you solve it with. You fill a crossword so that you can complete it, but a crossword gets easier to complete the further along you get (technically, disregard the fact t ....
Comment preview: Come on man, he's just a rookie. The real hit writer is [Max Martin](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Martin), look at his [credits](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Martin%27s_Songwriting_and_Production_Credits). This man is my hero, as is Dr. Luke (who w ....
Comment preview: Found this with some googling: How It's Made (Canadian show on the Discovery Channel) Drinking Game Drink every time: * The voiceover makes a dumb pun. * They show yet another machine for filling plastic bottles. * A machining process takes place under a s ....
Comment preview: 1. Did you suspect that the narrator was female before she revealed herself as a "chick" in the final sentence? Upon realizing it, did you find yourself compelled to go back and read the story again? 2. Consider other narratives in which key elements of t ....
Comment preview: x-post I don't understand how SRS is highlighted in such a large part of this video when it is such a microscopic percentage of Reddit. It paints reddit as a whole as some women-hating, evil website, when it's just not true. In fact most commenters on SRS ....
Comment preview: > I stopped reading when the author started bitching about the fact that Tex depends on over a hundred different libraries as if that's a fault. So you stopped reading in the _second paragraph_ and yet we're supposed to take your critique seriously? Mor ....
Comment preview: IMO, true lovecraftian horror comes from existential horror, not the monsters, they are just tools Lovecraft uses to convey a thought: We are, despite everything we believe and built, just bags of rotten flesh and bones drifting, in a spec of dust, in the ....
Comment preview: It's not the job itself the metaphor refers to. It could've been any job he enjoyed. It's the idea of doing what he wants and loves not the fact that he's applying to be a walrus. As the comic progresses the jobs he applies for slowly become more and more ....
