That their was a man who got skimmed by a cannonball in the ass, got treated, and returned to the deck the same day to continue watching the battle.
History changes the people drive, and now everyone after the Ontario G1 DMV test
The Ying Yang summarizes the Big Bang, basically the universe wondered what it could be so first it was black and white and then the alterations of those states started showing up. You are the universe itself creating self awareness and providing more ways to answer the original question: “what could I be”?
“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."
I would like a word with the manager of the Universe please.
Theres no manager anymore. His/hers last word before quitting: “We apologize for the inconvenience.”

C’mon dude. As a history teacher, I can tell you that it is definitely possible to fire a gun without arms.
I’m not even a gun dude and I’ve heard of those guns that shoot if you look at em funny. Hi points? I don’t remember.
You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
Just FYI, factoid has been misused for long enough that it now has an official second, contradictory definition:
A briefly stated and usually trivial fact.
A gunman doesn’t cease to be a gunman if he’s disarmed. Though he can’t be a gunman if he wasn’t armed in the first place.
Most people have at least one arm, so aren’t all gunmen armed?
Wouldn’t it be a pleonasm? Tautology is more about the logic realm, specifically about repeating an argument or a statement as it they were different. Here “inaccurate factoid” is merely inaccurate vocabulary.
It’s more redundant than inaccurate.
If you’re a former English teacher you should be aware that language changes and while “factoid” was originally coined to mean a made up fact, the term is currently mostly used to refer to small inconsequential facts.
That’s literally the most ironic thing I’ve read
Nice.
George Washington had wooden dentures.
I learned it from Day of the Tentacle and even if I know now that it isn’t true,it still pops into my mind everytime someone talks about him or dentures.
Yeah, he had those wind up teeth instead
Ha. Ha. Ha.

Time for a replay. Is there an android option nowadays?
Sort of.
There’s a ScummVM emulator on the playstore, so it’s possible to play the original on android if you can find the “rom” files.
I haven’t tried DOTT in particular, but last time I replayed a scumm game I quickly lost interest due to the outdated controls.
Thanks will try it
By the way, got the rom from https://www.romspedia.com/roms/scummvm/day-of-the-tentacle/download
Game started, not tested yet but all looks ok
(To anyone else trying to do this, get Scummvm app from playstore. Get the Rom file from web link above (mind the spammy adverts). You’ll need something like Rar app to unzip the file. Make a games folder on your phone, make a DayOfTheTentacle inside it and unzip the file there. Then open scummvm and “add new folder” and navigate to the DayOfTheTentacle folder and select that. Scummvm should detect the game so then you should see a game called "tentacle* you can start)
Also, Betsy Ross originally created a tentacle shaped flag, not a rectangular one.
Founding fathers were white washed.
i thought he had dentures made of slave teeth?
I like to believe that dinosaurs (especially stegosauruses) had lovely singing voices, because its nice and doesn’t hurt anybody.
how loud could their operas get? what range of octaves are possible with the range of species? could they beat box? were there ventriloquists?
- three 2) yes 3) only in Portuguese 4) only in Portuguese
Now I’m imagining a Tyrannosaurus Rex singing a bird song every morning.
Hobby Lobby hired ISIS to steal the Epic of Gilgamesh

Padeira de Aljubarrota killed 7 Castillians by cooking them in her bakery’s oven in 1385.
Brites de Almeida das born in 1350 with 6 fingers in each hand, a though lady, could easily kill a man with her hands (and did it a few times), was kidnapped and enslaved in Northern Africa, managed to escape with her bare hands, helped out 2 other Portuguese guys to escape, stole a boat, sailed back with the guys, had a prob with one of them, killed him. Tried to establish herself in a honest way, but crime and murder were always coming her way somehow, ended up moving towns and disguise herself as a man. Met and older lady friend, a baker, that wanted to maker her an honest person. They lived happily as a couple. Older lady dies, she inherits the bakery. Castille tries to occupy Portugal, big battle, Portugal is outnumbered but manages to have a spectacular win. Some castillans are running around and looting. She lures 7 into her bakery, cooks them alive in her oven. Forever a national hero and legend.
Nothing of this is proven, including the Castillans she killed (which is the factoid that made her a hero) but there’re even songs about her and whenever Portugal plays against Spain in football you’ll see some people dressed as a baker on the stadium.
A lesbian serial-killer who escapsed enslavement to kill Castillans in one of the most important battles of our history? To me nothing can be truer than this, independently of what you can prove or not.
That Ben Franklin said beer is proof that God loves us
Ben Franklin got so high he forgot to be president.
Ben Franklin banged so many whores even the French were impressed.
That Napoleon was short
He wasn’t short? 😨
He was short. But so was everyone else then.
He was 5’10" which at the time was considered ‘normal’.
Dude 5’ 10 is slightly above average for men today. https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_human_height_by_country
Napoleon was 5’ 6”, but again, average for the time. https://www.history.com/news/napoleon-complex-short#
As a 5’11 guy you’ve just made my day
*5’6”, which was actually a little above average.
Both 5’7" and 5’10’ are listed here but I see no 5’6".
I wonder why the height differs so much between sites?
He was average for the day. He just happened to be measured in different units than the British and had really tall bodyguards.
Finland exists
Vikings had horns on their helmets
Current flows from positive to negative
Hahahahaha…sob…
The thing about the Pythagorean Theorem and having to cut your tongue out to join the cult that teaches you, so that you can’t just blab it all over town. I teach physics and I love to play it up!
