The "bovine" joke in The Restaurant at the end of the Universe (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series)

The whole “bovine” joke was hilarious on one hand and a little horrifying on the other. It got me thinking: how would I feel if an animal I was about to consume came up to me enthusiastically conveying its consent for being eaten? I will be horrified, just like Arthur! But why?...

Bonehead,

And communicate. You know that smell of a fresh cut lawn? Yeah, that's grass screaming about being cut.

Bonehead,

I still hear "Oh starless night of boundless black..."

Bonehead,

No, it's "moichandising".

U.S. regulators will review car-tire chemical that kills salmon, upon request from West Coast tribes (apnews.com)

U.S. regulators say they will review the use of a chemical found in almost every tire after a petition from West Coast Native American tribes that want it banned because it kills salmon as they return from the ocean to their natal streams to spawn....

Bonehead,

They're monsters because they eat squid?

Bonehead,

To be fair, being trans is not the same as being a crossdresser.

Where I am, cooking oil is now $14.99 for a 3 liter jug and never goes on sale anymore. It used to be $5.99, and would frequently go on sale for $2.99. I haven't deep-fried anything in months. This isn't the way I expected to start eating healthier...

Bonehead,

No, that's his brother. This is the hash dealer.

Bonehead,

Simple, this isn't Reddit.

More complicated, Kbin doesn't propagate downvotes from the Federation as a whole. It only counts the ones made on Kbin. Upvotes do propagate though, and reputation is determined by the ratio you get of upvotes to downvotes. So technically your Kbin reputation is inflated and not entirely accurate.

Bonehead,

Not just any pig. It's a skunk pig.

Bonehead,

Don't forget Star Wars memes, and LOTR memes. And The Big Lebowski memes join in occasionally.

Bonehead,

When I worked for Bell, they had just ended their WFH policy. I was required to be in the office every day. The rest of my team was still under the policy according to their contract, including my boss who was a 10 minute walk from the office, so they all worked from home. And most of my meetings involved teams in 3 different cities, not to mention the fact that it was Bell, so all meetings were over the phone with a screen sharing app. There were some other people that worked in the office, but they worked with different teams so I didn't interact with them beyond saying "hi" in the break room as I was getting coffee. But it was apparently very important that I be in the office.

Some days I really appreciate the fact that I left IT.

Bonehead,

Got laid off from Bell and couldn't find another IT job before EI ran out, so I applied to be a mail carrier. Been doing that ever since. I did apply to a few IT jobs after I started doing mail, but it wasn't long that I realized I could make more where I was and I really didn't miss It all that much. It's a little frustrating when I hit bugs in the software we use, because I could write the bug report in full detail but I have no access to submit it. But then I get done at 1pm on a Friday and I remember why I left that world.

Bonehead,

It was widely used up until roughly the 1990s. Then they just came out and admitted to being in a monogamous relationship, as it was more publicly acceptable by then.

Most 8 ounce cups of coffee contain 80 to 100 milligrams of caffeine. A large coffee from Tim Hortons is 20 ounces which has roughly 250mg of caffeine. And I used to drink 2, sometimes 3 or 4, of those a day.

I'll likely be dead by next Tuesday. I sure could go for a coffee right now though.

Edit: For those that want to plan accordingly, a 20 ounce blonde roast from Starbucks has 475mg of caffeine. The dark roast had about 340mg.

Bonehead,

I only stop sleeping when I sustain 3-4 large Timmy's a day for many weeks. On an average Sunday morning when I don't have anything to do, I can drink 2 cups of homebrew and fall asleep on the couch watching TV.

Consequently, among other observations, I've also considered getting tested for ADHD.

Crewman Chell took over immediately with a full menu after Neelix left, so I'm pretty sure there was already something planned back then too. And it's not like he enjoyed the work that he was assigned, so why wouldn't they just let him work with Neelix before? Really, a lot of problems could have been solved by just allowing the Maquis crew a little more freedom in choosing their duties.

Bonehead,

There's a limited selection of phones available. Generally the ones with good specs and a good metal frame that is well supported and has readily available cases and accessories that can be bought from a local store come from only the unprivate companies.

Bonehead,

Only if we get an H3 that completely ignores a major plot point from H2 because it was a stupid idea that no one liked.

Bonehead, (edited )

Just sounds like you need to start training by chewing gum at least 8 hours a day. And none of that Dentyne stuff, you need to find the cheapest pizza shop with the "Pink Gumball = Free Pizza!" gumball machines and chew those. Give it 6 months and 400 nuggets will seem like nothing.

Bonehead,

This story started out normal, but ended kinda gay. Hooray for alcohol?

Bonehead, (edited )

Steve1989 for some awesome MRE and vintage rations reviews.

Bonehead,

Partly cursed? So there are upsides to it besides looking human with the stamina of a giant purple dragon?

Bonehead,

No, you said Linux is not equal to Unix, which is also technically correct.

Bonehead,

...and that it is permitted in the subreddit.

Dude, where do you think you are right now?

Bonehead,

Have you ever smelled an alcoholic? I'll gladly take the smell of weed over the smell of booze and piss.

Bonehead,

Because they are Vans.

Bonehead,

For anyone curious...

It's safe for work, but it gets weird fast.

Bonehead,

Surprisingly, the thumbnail is the most suggestive yet least weird thing about that video.

Bonehead,

Just softly sing "weeeeeeeee..." as you go under.

There was a very real conversation about putting litter boxes in classrooms as a way to give kids locked in a classroom during a school shooting for hours a way to use bathroom. That got twisted by far-right pundits that kids are identifying as cats and that's why they are putting litter boxes in classrooms. It's just another way to attack people that "identify" as the "wrong gender". It's complete bullshit and anyone with more than 2 brain cells to rub together that can use Google could figure it out, if they weren't completely focused on denigrating anyone outside their strict interpretation of gender.

Bonehead,

So it may have taken 13 years to come back with a sequel that no one asked for and no one expected. But at least he gave us something. Unlike a certain South African director that shall remain nameless...3 years my ass...

Bonehead,

Better idea...reshoot the movie with all the same actors and the exact same script.

Bonehead,

Yeah, but the parents created the fuck up to begin with. So who is really at fault?

Bonehead,

Just like I told my father, you don't need to take it out on the fuck up.

Bonehead,

You can be offensive and funny at the same time. But it's an extremely fine line, and difficult to pull off. Watch Jimmy Carr if you want to see it done properly.

Bonehead,

This is the way.

Bonehead,

Do they have any around Bozeman, Montana that comes with the missile? I don't need the warhead, I got other plans...

Bonehead,

So I assume this runs on disodium?

Bonehead,

It's a 400x286 pixel comic. They had to condense the response a bit...

Bonehead,

That's just a Easter egg for geeks.

Bonehead,

Ah...so it's a commercial disguised as an article.

Bonehead,

If he really likes Apple products because they are supposedly superior, why not show that by comparing them to actual Apple competitor products instead of dollar store stuff?

Bonehead,

Well first, you have to get into sounding to eventually fit a tube large enough to deliver pop rocks. After that, it's pretty trivial.

Bonehead,

Don't blame people seeking health care for going to the last option available when there are no family doctors taking patients and all the clinics are severely understaffed.

Bonehead,

Of course you did. You're not handing your device over to Best Buy, you're handing it over to Jimmy on the Geek Squad who is quiet and a bit weird. And he loves to snoop into other people's phones. Not for identity theft or reselling naughty pictures, but simply for the fun of snooping on other people.

Backup your device and wipe all of your data before handing a phone over to anyone else. It's just safer that way.

Bonehead,

With a USB cable and your phone manufactures backup software installed on your computer, as recommended by your manufacturer?

But seriously, this may not always be an option. And you have to decide if you want to risk giving it to Jimmy in that state. But keep in mind that you do, Jimmy is taking a copy of those bikini pics. And you probably don't want to know what he plans to do with them.

Bonehead,

I do tend to find 2-handed broadswords more intimidating, but only when someone is holding it.

Bonehead,

Is the bottom cat a bed, or is the top cat a blanket?
