My own aesthetic tastes lean toward wood stocked milsurp, but I can appreciate this design.

That's fascinating! I had no idea that a specific bird was the inspiration for Poe's poem.

@ChrisfromFrance -- this hasn't happened to me, but I approve of your response. If parents contact an employer, it makes reducing the applicant pool easier.

What I find weird is parents inventing complex, alternate spellings for common names.

"...straight to a video of a cat puking." Hilarious! Great find, Miss C.

I think that Luthor is more of a Neutral Evil or Chaotic Evil.
Deadpool, from what I know of him, is well-placed on the chart.

It's a nice gift, but not as romantic as giving the real thing.

I loved Big League Chew. It was a rare treat when I was a child.

I read survival blogs now and then. They're fascinating for both the mindset and the ingenuity on display.
Although I'm prepared to shelter in place for two weeks and defend my home against a minor breakdown in civil order, that's about all that I can afford to do without financially compromising myself. Mostly, I try to take a moderate stance, which was nicely expressed by Les Jones when he encountered a survivalist blog post on guinea pig recipes:
I try not to judge. Different people fall at different points on the preparedness spectrum. Some people surely think I’m paranoid because I own guns and my 401K has silver and gold instead of stocks. Others surely think I’m an innocent little lamb because I don’t have a collection of AR-15s and a bomb shelter filled with MREs and gas masks. But brother, if you ever find yourself collecting chili recipes for guinea pig you should take a long, hard look at your life and ponder how you ever came to give up on the world.

That's why operational security (as some survivalists call it) is important for the thoroughly-prepared. If you're ready to face the end of the world as we know it, don't tell anyone.
