Things scurvy is worse than:
I. Death
II. When you open one of those ring-pull beers and it comes off but doesn't open the beer
III. Roman numerals being used unnecessarily
IV. Your boss saying. "Can I have a word with you?" and you know you're fucked but you're not sure why
V. The emoji movie

This is from a frame or so at 3:44, but I thought I'd trick you into thinking I was mildly funny until just now.

You stick your finger down their throat and help them undrink the tea.

My question, what if they passed out because they have scurvy and desperately NEED the tea!? Still no tea?

scurvy?

Thanks for the promote and the facts!

So, a couple of things. First, the domesticated chicken is almost completely flavorless when eaten immediately after slaughter and draining. The flavor we omnivores call "chicken" actually derives from the byproduct of decomposition bacteria that are ever-present in chicken flesh and only begin to grow into large enough numbers for us to taste well after the flesh is dead. This flavor phenomenon is true of many of the meats humans eat.

Second, the Eskimo-Aleut (and I mean the language group here) diet has been rigorously studied and determined to be among the most robust and healthful diets ever established by humans. I'm certainly not saying that eating fermented birds is either tasty or good for you, but the people who thought this up are way better at eating than nearly all of you are.

P.S.--You wanna call bogus on these facts--which a few have done since the studies in the late '90s--please bring hard evidence.

burdturgler had every right to pull out the ban hammer. That statement is disgusting and has no place on this site, let alone this decade. Who still says shit like that? It's 2011 for Cthulhu's sake.
Also, @blankfist, do you really not see the difference between "nigger" and "cracker"? I sense you do, but if not, I'd be more than happy to elaborate. Also, trying to make this into some kind of political argument is beyond lame. Shame on you. You should know better.

Whatever, selfrighteousfuturetoday. What he said wasn't that egregious. And certainly not worth a ban. I stand by that.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Richmond was so missed in the last season. Darn scurvy.

I have fond memories of Star Hustler from my childhood. PBS Sunday nights went Dr. Who, then Star Hustler, then off the air. I don't think networks go off the air anymore, do they?

R.I.P. Jack, you scurvy giggling pirate in the Members Only jacket. R.I.P.

But if there would have been two snipers they would not have been lonely, and his brains would be splattered everywhere. That is the evil of human emotions and why Hitler rose in the first place.


This makes no logical sense...obviously the trumpet player was lonely despite being with his fellow troops.

Also, kraut not crout...somebody failed earlier. The Germans were so nicknamed after sauerkraut, which they ate for Vitamin C and other stuff to stave off Scurvy before frozen foods were available on ships. The Brits got their "Limey" nickname from eating limes for the same purpose. I don't know if either are used as perjoratives still or if anyone's offended or what.

Steve Rackham.

This seems like a crock. A crock of scurvy.

I would so watch that.

Who do you think would ally with who? I mean, you have three sides and let's assume equal numbers.

The muslims would stay the hell away from the jews. Would they try a deal with the christians? I imagine the christians would see it as beneath themselves to deal with anyone (presuming they're white americans, say). Would the jews consider reaching out to either side? It would be so interesting. I mean, no side is going to attack another without an alliance because they'd have lower numbers afterwards and would therefore be disadvantaged fighting the third group. You might even end up with an awkward peace with no fighting at all!

I can see I will be pondering this evilly for some time.>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

^I see a great reality show in this:
Fundamentalist Island: The Ultimate Grudge Match.
Radical Jews, Christians and Muslims battle for religious supremacy on a desert island, armed only with hatred and their bare hands. Last man standing gets to live on a religiously purified island... until he eventually dies alone of dehydration or scurvy, or gets run through by a wild boar or mauled by a polar bear.
