Cryptozoology. There are definitely creatures unknown to science. Dozens of new ones are discovered every day. Loch Ness monster - no. Unknown ape - possibly.

I love this album but never particularly liked that quote or the supposed meaning behind.

If you're on the train you're either for it or against it. No one on the train is neutral. They either boarded willingly or were boarded against their will. I don't think anyone just finds themselves on the train.

It's true, of course, that being neutral is accepting the status quo, and that neutrality helps the oppressor and not the oppressed, but I don't think this quote really conveys that.

Sweet. I know what channel to avoid. Thanks for the heads up.

I have no idea what you're trying to say as you don't give an example.

I can think of 2 examples.

One is a streaming site I use for sport. If I share with others and talk it up it will get more well known and risks being taken down or having issues due to too many people accessing.

The other is a place near me that sometimes gave away free food. It became more well known and people pestered them for freebies to the point that they had to stop.

I doubt the pastor really abstained from food and water, and made it to 25 days before his body started to shutdown. He definitely had secret liquids during his silly stunt, if it even happened, which is doubtful.

The only source is one BBC report and the BBC have fallen for false stories from Africa numerous times in the past. There are no images or video of the fast, and there's no info of the pastor or the church before his supposed death. Fishy.

He's a complete cunt of a human. Utterly deplorable gobshite who thinks he's god's gift.

I mean, I don't think Jesus existed never mind fasted. And if he was the son of god, or god himself, going without food and water is hardly impressive when you have created and maintained everything.

diacatholicon and panpharmacon are synonyms for panacea. Also cool words and very rarely used. Most people will never have heard of them.

Angus Barbieri fasted for 382 days in 1965-66, so both the pastor and Jesus are amateurs compared to a portly Scotsman
