That's hilarious (in a Darwin award kind of way) if it's actually a legitimate video. Something about the way the kid blows offscreen looks a bit suspect though.

Someone cropped it out of this one.


I was a bit fooled for a little while, as there have been cases where live grenades have been purchased with the mistaken belief they were inert (the only ones that are have been cut from the bottom and are hollow.)

And I just came across this story of drunken Ukrainians in 2020 who while lost and arguing had an idiot passenger try to kill everyone while setting it off.

I guess, maybe, they were thinking French bread pizza?

This woman is fine. Can you see it? I can imagine her when she was a fine young thang. But how she looks now is more attractive to me.

I like this old one:

AI art generation

Initially prompt:
Compound Eye's Wide Shut (Octopussy, starring James Bond in an action flesh adventure with the para-Olympics team.)

https://neural.love/ai-art-generator/1e ... mpics-team

Well, that was kind of a disappointment. . . I had to also remove the word "flesh" in the prompt.

This one is a little "warmer."

https://neural.love/ai-art-generator/1e ... a-olympics

New prompt:
James Bond movie titled 'Compound Eye's Wide Shut' (which is inspired by Octopussy, though is an action-adventure featuring para-Olympics team.)

And it shows cameras. . .
https://neural.love/ai-art-generator/1e ... -is-an-act

So I just went with: James Bond live-action movie titled 'Compound Eye's Wide Shut'

https://neural.love/ai-art-generator/1e ... -wide-shut

Which is boring but passable.

(Silently goes into a brooding rage. . .)

My mother, the troll: ‘I think she lost sight of the McCanns’ humanity’
https://www.theguardian.com/society/202 ... nn-parents


People like this were often neglected as children and are prone to confabulate to fill a void. It's basically narcissism, and people like Alex Jones and others (whom I've encountered) are prone to lie in the hopes that it doesn't catch up to them. . . Usually, it always does.

SCP-4486
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4486

"SCP-4486 is an amalgamated thought-form entity1 endowed with limited retrocausal control over local reality. Although the form of SCP-4486 is transitory, currently prevailing aesthetics depict the entity as a humanoid approximately 2.2 meters in height wearing company-branded apparel resembling that of a clown. SCP-4486 also has the ability to manifest at any and all McDonald's franchises, offices, affiliated properties, or events which may contain associations to the McDonald's brand."

Looking over a vintage 1990s cd ('World of Extraterrestrials' which I attempted to upload to Archive.org but it had some issues with their website.) One feature of the disc was a list of web pages that I managed to create a PDF printout of and am looking over. The Wayback machine has access to some of them from that time period (and periodically had snapshots from 2000 onward of a dead website.) It's kind of spooky.

A similar looking list of links from a similar era: https://www.subgenius.com/bigfist/bulld ... S.WEB.html
