I wonder if there is an order plus fan edit that makes it look like the reason Ani turned Darth was because of Ashoka leaving the order?
Like New Hope, Empire, select episodes of Clone Wars, edits of Clone Wars and Revenge to remove Padme (can anything from Ashoka series be inserted?), then RotJ.
I was a kid in the 70s and Cracked magazine was a second rate Mad. I always saw them as Cracked was to Mad like Hustler was to Playboy. But now that I think about it, if you are too much younger than me then that comparison will be meaningless.
Since you know the math, how long before it evaporated? Also, at what distance would an object feel 1G of acceleration?
Ohhhh! Now I see what you mean. Yeah, I’ve known 2 different dudes from Nigeria over the years but I don’t know anything about the culture.
Like, I know they have a world class soccer team & I’ve heard of their dictator from the 70s – Idi Amin – but that’s about it. And yeah, I guess the spam email thing too.
I assume the excess hype out of nowhere was due to a particularly successful guerrilla marketing campaign. I recall the first time I experienced one: 98 or 99, I come into work and 5 out of 30 people are talking about Blair Witch Project and how they plan to go see it. They must have hit all the right AOL chat rooms or whatever the hell they did back then.
I’m trying to figure out if you have a misplaced modifier with “obscure, lesser known”. You have it modifying “country” in the title. In other words, you want musicians of any level of renown who come from a lesser known country.
However, you mention Fela Kuti, who is from Nigeria, which is not a lesser known country. You would have to be very ignorant of basic world geography to not have heard of Nigeria.
And, as usual, commenters are completely ignoring your criteria by mentioning musicians from Germany and New Zealand and Columbia and Vietnam.
So perhaps you meant obscure musicians instead of obscure countries, but that would still leave me wondering what subset of countries you intended? Just countries other than your own? But if so, I don’t know what country you are in.
I see your Cannibal Corpse and I raise you one Nembrionic Hammer Death.
I’m not sure of the term for this, but I’ll call it “billionaire blindness”. Not blindness to billionaires but a blindness that affects billionaires. And it works like this: because they overestimate their own abilities – their ego cannot handle the large part that luck played in their success – they correspondingly underestimate the abilities of their lackeys.
In this particular context, they vastly underestimate their political pawns. They fail to realize that once Trump and Taylor-Green and cohorts gain dictatorial powers, then those former lackeys will become the masters. To quote Jello Biafra, “In the real fourth reich you’ll be the first to go.” I don’t know what we’ll call it tho. “Night of Long Knives” is too poetic.
The guy that said DUI and DWI are the same is wrong.
First, states have different blood alcohol levels that qualify as intoxicated.
Second, assume you are driving funny on a Friday night and a cop pulls you over. They will test your blood alcohol level using breathalyzer. If it shows you have been drinking but your blood alcohol levels is below the legal intoxication level, then that is a DUI, and it is a lesser offense.
Last I heard, some states like Texas don’t even have such a thing as DUI. It used be and still might be, that if you are not intoxicated then the cops will force you to get a ride home but there is no criminal charge.
DWI means you were caught driving with a blood alcohol level that is above the legal intoxication limit. In most states, the legal intoxication level is so high that if you actually go over it then you are certainly very obviously drunk. This is a much more serious charge.
All of these kinds of things are fictional sexual acts intending to be as crass and disgusting as possible. They are a form of adolescent humor.
These jokes are somewhat similar to The Aristocrats joke which has been around for years.
If “mildly infuriating” is just a synonym for “annoying” then I’d say this post nails the theme perfectly.
Wow. Gee whiz. My suggestions can’t compete with John Malkovich or Nigel Planer, but…
Some (maybe most?) Star Wars novels are packed with sound effects and electronic voice distortion effects. I’ve listened to Labyrinth of Evil, Darth Plagueis, and Path of Destruction.
Also, I recall being impressed listening to the Silmarillion and the narrator’s pronunciation. Sure, it was a professional production so they had to get it right, but still impressive to hear.
I just remembered a long unanswered question. Why did Slayer’s Reign in Blood cassette require me to flip it over? The entire album was only 35 minutes.
For Whom The Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemmingway is set during this period. Just a side note.
I’m not debating. It is not a matter of opinion. I’m doing you the courtesy of informing you how the entire rest of the world uses the term.
If action A looks for thing X, and it finds thing X, then the test is positive. If action A fails to find thing X, then the test is negative.
If action A claims to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is not really there, then this situation is called “false positive”.
If action A claims fails to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is actually there, then this situation is called “false negative”.
That thing X may subjectively be considered an unwanted outcome has **nothing ** to do with the terms used.
