Learn Something Random Every Day Thoughts

(Plus I also set the "threads per page view" to 40 and I want to see what happens when we get to a second page of threads)

Anyway . . . I always believed that the reason Toronto's SkyDome (now Rogers Center) used artificial turf was simply because it is a multi-purpose facility. According to the article (linked below) it is also because there is not enough natural light getting into the dome to maintain grass as the surface. I'm a bit skeptical about that but this was mildly interesting:

Just yesterday I learned of a sea slug that discards its own penis after intercourse and then grows a new one the next day. True story.

I guess that's one way to combat STI's.

It would also be an effective cure for priapISM. Not priaprism. Priapism.

That must be the same cellular barrier that prevents pregnancy during legitimate rape. Vaginas are amazing!

i had no idea there had never been a jesuit pope, until yesterday. seeing how prominent the order is in the united states. especially in high school sports in sacramento and san francisco when i was a youngster. oh, and in higher education across america.

Ugh. Missed that. Great story, though, eh?

No, no. I don't get a pass any more than anyone else gets a pass. It's still The Swamp, after all.

by that, i mean you get a pass AFTER you've been called out, shamed and embarrassed. but first, a little unga-bunga.

The freeper thread on Rob Portman's reversal on gay marriage is hilarious. I won't link, but you know where to find it if so interested.

This deal of “coming out” that has become so popular with these kids in the past few years is, I think, suspect. In this area, at one of the high schools, the kids suddenly started “coming out” in droves, embracing and kissing in the hallways, having “sex” in the bathroom stalls (how romantic!) I expect some kids are in the future going to be embarrassed at their recent behavior; because even logical statistical numbers would have precluded there being that huge a number of “gay” kids in any one given place at one time. A fad.

I'm sure.

All those kids fucking each other up the ass in school bathrooms all day is a major national problem.

Wasn't there a Senator from Oklahoma or thereabouts complaining a few years ago about rampant lesbianism in schools?

I got about halfway through and had to quit. I can't believe that these are real people out there.

It's a never ending battle. You plug one dike and the next thing you know a bunch of gaping holes open up elsewhere.

Does anyone else find the thing with shaving one's head as a sign of solidarity with a cancer patient to be completely self-serving?

I'm thinking it doesn't matter whether you or I find it self-serving. I think it's up to the cancer patient.

Jerloma · Post by **Jerloma** » Tue Mar 19, 2013 11:31 am

Oh yeah, if they ask you that's different. I'm talking about just doing it and then everyone fawning over you like you've made some awesome fucking sacrifice.

If I ever do get cancer, I hope its one where I don't need chemo and I can keep a straight face until after all my friends have shaved their heads. That would be a lot of fun.

I had my head shaved BEFORE my mom started losing her hair, so it looked like she was showing solidarity with people who don't like having to go get haircuts.

Nope. Especially when women do this. But I think you'd have to know the people involved pretty well to figure out their motivation, so I've got a small number of cases to go on.
