High Quality Horizontally Spinning Rat

BSR says...

It's amazing how far science has come. I'm surprised National Geographic hasn't picked up on this science yet.

If only a slice of pizza could evolve as much.

The evolution is accelerating. We will soon become subservient to our digital rotating rodent overlords….and I for one welcome them and offer my services in any way I can be of use to them.

Kids' Honest Opinions on Being a Boy or Girl

xxovercastxx says...

Have you met kids? It's pretty common for kids, even "normal" kids, to play with toys of the opposite gender. Boys play with dolls; girls play with toy soldiers. Boys put on sparkly dresses; girls put on football helmets.

When you've got a 4 year old boy asking how to kill himself, but putting on a dress makes him feel better, maybe he's on to something.

While I agree it's absurdly complicated, I suspect that gets worse as you get older and more firmly affixed in your pigeonhole. Plus, if Avery decides to undergo physical alteration, whether it be hormone treatment or full surgical reassignment, it goes a lot better if you start that process at or before puberty starts making its own changes.

Caplin Rous Begs for a Popsicle

Cute, but I recall reading an article in National Geographic about exotic pets that said capybaras kept out of their normal social groups have shorter lifespans.

I was going to ask what is the advantage of block building over regular building in place (though I'm sure I've heard the explanation via Discovery Channel, History Channel or National Geographic Channel special on modern mega ship building) but found something that explained it well enough: http://www.marineinsight.com/naval-architecture/advantages-of-advanced-outfitting-shipbuilding/. So now just looking for a further ELI5 confirmation/explanation.

Creepy Bobbit Worm, Death From Below

ant says...

Maybe that is how it got its name?

Also, this video reminded me of National Geographic's videos with that narrator.

Is it just a coincidence that an object the size of my penis with "scissor like jaws" is named Bobbit?

The Death Of National Geographic

TheFreak says...

Well, the upside being...National Geographic was such an excellent magazine that you really couldn't throw an issue away. You stuck it away in your ever growing library of National Geographic magazines. Then years later you have stacks and stacks of the magazine that you can't get rid of.

Now that problem is fixed.

Today lets just crush some stuff with a Steam Roller :)

A steam roller crushing stuff. Who would have thunk?

National Geographic gone the way of Discovery and or the History channel. Playing to the lowest common denominator it seems

Today lets just crush some stuff with a Steam Roller :)

artician says...

Ho.Ly.Shit.

Not even in ultra-slo-mo. Are they even trying? This probably took 15 minutes in the back lot to produce, and the whole thing is a viral for the manufacturer of that stupid roller, too. Fuck National Geographic, this is pathetic.
