I URGE ALL MY FRIENDS TO READ & SHARE THIS; YOU COULD SAVE A LOVED ONES LIFE BY KNOWING THIS SIMPLE INFORMATION!!! Stroke has a new indicator! They say if you forward this to ten people, you stand a chance of saving one life. Will you send this along?

[bizarre anecdote about a woman having a stroke at a bbq and dying]

[reasonable advice on 'stroke indicators']

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved. I have done my part. Will you?

if misusing semicolons is 'doing my part', then no

OMFG PEOPLE

I always thought it was "I guess the rain's down in Africa."

I guess it rains down in Africa? I mean, I dunno.

Not that I ever thought it out, but my impression was that there was some guy in England pondering the drought and he's like, I guess the rain's down in Africa. Also, something about My Fair Lady.

Sorry if this phenomena has been covered (11000 posts wtf) but after the app has been around for a good while, many of my friends have finally discovered bit strips and now the feed is full of them.

I kinda hate that everybody identifies as a 'nerd' these days, even if their only claim is they saw three of four episodes of Small Wonder in the 80s and still remember the robot's name is Vicki. WHOOP-DE-FUCKIN-DOO

Gen. Douglas MacArthur was such a nerd.

is "Japan" a symbol for something?

Did the Oatmeal do a comic about him or something? xp

What if I did not recognise all those? But spelled 'recognise' right?

recognize is equally correct. theoretically, "recognize" is more correct iirc

"right" xp

Oxford spelling can be recognized by its use of the suffix ‑ize instead of -ise: organization, privatize and recognizable instead of organisation, privatise and recognisable. The spelling affects about 200 verbs, and is favoured on etymological grounds, in that -ize corresponds more closely to the Greek root, -izo, of most -ize verbs.[3] The suffix -ize has been in use in the UK since the 15th century,[4] and is the spelling variation used in American English. The belief that -ize is an exclusively American variant is incorrect.[5][4] The OED lists the -ise form of words separately, as "a frequent spelling of -IZE...". The OED explains its use of -ize as follows:

[I]n mod.F. the suffix has become -iser, alike in words from Greek, as baptiser, évangéliser, organiser, and those formed after them from L., as civiliser, cicatriser, humaniser. Hence, some have used the spelling -ise in Eng., as in French, for all these words, and some prefer -ise in words formed in French or Eng. from L. elements, retaining -ize for those of Gr. composition. But the suffix itself, whatever the element to which it is added, is in its origin the Gr. -ιζειν, L. -izāre; and, as the pronunciation is also with z, there is no reason why in English the special French spelling should be followed, in opposition to that which is at once etymological and phonetic. In this Dictionary the termination is uniformly written -ize. (In the Gr. -ιζ-, the i was short, so originally in L., but the double consonant z (= dz, ts) made the syllable long; when the z became a simple consonant, (-idz) became īz, whence Eng. (-aɪz).)

The use of -ize instead of -ise does not affect the spelling of words in British English that end in -yse, such as analyse, paralyse and catalyse, which come from the Greek verb λύω, lyo, not from an -izo verb.

I love step 2 of sierpinski's triangle!

xp prob would've made more sense if they mentioned the λύσω form of λύω. of course its OED so they'd expect you to know how to conjugate ancient Greek verbs. courtesy of nerdstimetoshine.

lotta nerd intensity on this thread...

I own two comic book stores. I'm waiting for the day that I hear some variation on "nerd culture" one time too many and just torch the fuckers (the stores, not the nerds) for insurance money.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc, and just sit (doing their cheque book, or making a list).

this is amazing

gonna assume Grohl didn't really say that cos his understanding of the music industry seems shaky

when you just get together with some guys with some shitty old instruments and already one album out on sub-pop and a fair bit of buzz and some major label interest

they probably got together before the first album was released.
