    why were you hooking up with her if she was bonkers?

    Crazy women are meant to be good in bed.

    I'm pretty sure you can be out of sight of land on freshwater.

    you know land is p close in any direction

    Basically.

    Like, I'll raft over the most insane bullshit you care to throw at me (because I'm dumb), but I'd be pretty uncomfortable sailing on the open ocean.

    The first time I sailed solo past the sight of land, I was in awe of how empty things were. How very alone I was at that moment. That was my first thought. My second thought is that if I decided to go without pants then no one would see or care. My third thought was that was a good way to get sunburned.
    Don't underestimate satellites

    I would be more worried about a sub at periscope depth.

    Feral that picture is both goofy and fucking terrifying.

    My dad used to go into paranoia mode once in a while about criminals. Like, he'd hear or see something in the backyard and he'd tell me and my mom to go hide in a room while he'd go into the back with his gun because there might be somebody sneaking about!

    99% of the time, it was nothing, 1% of the time it was a stray dog. Sometimes he'd shoot the dog if he thought the dog was a threat to our animals.

    I think when I was a kid, my brain developed this idea that there could be a creepy scary thing in the backyard at any time! and it didn't matter much whether that scary thing was a criminal or an alien.

    What about a criminal alien?

    Having a shitload of gear was cool, but actually being able to use your gear is cooler.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    Anyone else get these vague paranoia filled ads on tv from News America that were funded by "trusted wealthy person who has had correct predictions before"? They're very annoying and slightly scary in that they're appealing to the crazy population deliberately.

    It's actually 70 5-star reviews to only 25 1-star reviews. However, I looked through the 5-star reviews, and most of them talk about how awesome the old illustrations are, not even mentioning the new ones.

    Also, the old ones are already going for ridiculous amounts of money on E-Bay.

    Does everybody remember some book from childhood that creeped them out?

    I had a creepy book when I was a kid, too.

    It was one of those 'unsolved mysteries' books that was about ghosts and aliens and demonic possession and spontaneous combustion and other X-Files-ish stuff.

    One of the pictures that creeped me out from it was a pencil drawing of the Flatwoods Monster. it may have been this drawing, or a similar one: http://www.wvculture.org/goldenseal/fall02/images/graybarker.jpg

    Communion scared the absolute shit out of me when I was young.

    Before that, there was some story I read where a huge dead finger comes out of a chest or something... I just have the image of the pale dead finger with a claw, a giant thing reaching out of a chest way too small to hold whatever body that finger is attached to. Blargh!

    In my favorite anime, there is a shot of a kid who realizes he is no longer in Kansas anymore when he hangs around outside and sees a GIANT BLOATED SUN ON THE EARLY STAGES OF NOVA

    They eat the jelly between your toes.
    A big green worm with rolling eyes
    Crawls in your stomach and out our eyes.
    Your stomach turns a slimy green,
    And pus pours out like whipping cream.
    You'll spread it on a slice of bread,
    And this is what you eat when you are dead."

    I used to love all that dark, surrealistic art back in the day. When I worked at the bookstore, I'd buy pretty much anything Morpheus published. I was way into Yerka and Beksinski. Sadly, most of those books didn't survive college.

    The most frightening thing I remember from being a little kid was the great movie ride at disney world. I assume they have a similar one at land and most of the others, but the idea is that you go are in this little car thing and you go through all these kind of sets that represent different genre of films, and there's a person like, driving the car and narrating stuff for you.

    Anyways, everything's all well and good until you get into the sort of James Cagney era gangster flicks and you come to this scene where there's supposed to be this bank robbery or something, and there's a police shootout. Anyway, some actor dressed like a 20s gangster comes out and hijacks your car with a big tommy gun looking cap gun. It's awful, and anytime I went to disney world with my family I always got to hear about how when I was little whenever we went on it when the mob guy came and took over I'd always be freaked out and curled up on the ground and bawling.

    What an awful way to start.

    I heard Rosetta sucks for Japanese.

    It seems really bad, it feels like they are trying to teach me japanese like it is spanish. It's all ass backwards.
