Pill bugs and potato bugs are some others I've heard.

The more I learn about giant ground sloths, the cooler they become.

The humor holds up surpriningly well for a 50 year old movie.

The dystopic part is that it's assumed an intelligent person is expected to achieve less due to their lineage.

You shouldn't risk it, because no one knows how planes work.

To summarize the new animal size -

Patagomaia chainko is described as medium-sized by today's standards, around the size of an Andean fox, and the species was estimated to weigh 2-25 kg (4-51 lbs).

It is one of the largest mammals from the Late Cretaceous period, around 70 million years ago. Most mammals during that time were under 100g(.22 lbs), with few reaching 1kg(2.21 lbs).

I hope you're right, but there's plenty of well meaning projects and people that saw a large amount of money being offered and blinked.

I got it not too long ago, and I love it. The results are good, and the features are what i wish all search engines had. Just not looking forward to when they sell to venture capatilists down the line, and everything becomes terrible.

In the meantime, everyone should check out their Small Web intiative. Gives you a random blog or small website. There's some really good articles I would have never read otherwise.

I'm used to hugging my friends, and saying 'Love ya, bud.' I never thought that was weird, as my dad is fairly physically affectionate, until my high school girlfriend had her dad give us a ride. He was absolutely bewildered at the behavior as I said goodbye to my friends.
