Bizarrely beautiful, trippy ocean creatures

Retroboy says...

I remember seeing some of this while snorkeling in the Caribbean on my honeymoon, and have explored tidal pools on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of Canada. Underwater is a completely different and sometimes eerie world.

It had some pretty... er... powerful quotes in there. The Brad Pitt comments after Norton slugged him on the cheek were not quite the same words you'd hear on an episode of Teletubbies, for example. Leonardo and Jack prolly could have used a little mouthwash too.

What makes you say it's NSFW?

Slow Motion Contact Explosive - Nitrogen Triiodide

Best part of this awesome splodey-filled video: the host said "I don't know, but I suspect...".

More people need to do this.

Safest Way to Shoot a Gun

Skilled Pilot Performs Emergency Landing

Retroboy says...

That was amazing. Slowed to the point where there was no chance of flipping, then veered off to the soft stuff off of the runway where chances of friction-caused sparks that could ignite fuel spills were much lower.

Dunno if this was fully planned out but the results were superb. That pilot either has astounding skill or astounding instincts - or maybe both.

Vicious, Terrifying Guard Dog Protects Owner From Attack

Retroboy says...

Runner here (at least before my knees decided enough's enough).

My road route took me past a house where a toy some-such-or-other breed routinely chased me and came close to nipping at my heels. One day my knees weren't the only thing that decided enough was enough. Stopped, turned around, looked at the pesky atom, and ROARED. I'd like to think I'm a kind guy, but in all honesty, the other option of trying to score a field goal on imaginary 40-yard uprights was a very very close second. Runners will understand.

Anyways, I didn't, but it was very satisfying to see that little pest leave a vapour trail on its way back to its old-lady owner, who tried to comfort it against the big bad normally harmless passerby.

Do NOT train your dog to do what these people did. Might look cute, but is not.

Funny but teaching him dangerous habits. He'll grow up to be one of those dogs who bites the moment anyone approaches her, who chases people around nipping at their heals. I freaking little dogs like that.

Jon Stewart Trashes CNN on 'Larry King Live'

Retroboy says...

This will get slammed but I have to point out that Larry King is starting to look a lot like an Oompa Loompa.

The relevance is it's kinda hard to take him seriously.

Retroboy says...

omg, I wish more people realized how much brevity is the soul of information depletion.

Yeah, it goes the other way too, but sound bites simply can't tell a story.

I couldn't care less what Joe Public thinks about climate change/ universal healthcare / GMOs. Get me someone educated. Sure, we can discuss it after, but on a limited time format, it's just noise.

English Bulldogs Box Makes Him Blind As A Bat

Retroboy says...

The next time I badly badly screw things up through my own stubborn completely self-directed act of utter idiocy, and doubly so if it's in front of my spouseI'm going to boot up this video and breathe easier knowing there's a dumbfuckinger creature on the surface of our planet than I am.
