Miscellaneous / Will you eat ze bugs?

Last post by Old Seer - September 26, 2023, 03:34:25 PM

Klaus Shwalb and associates want the general floks to dine on bugs to save the environment. After they get farmers removed along with the cattle they want people stuck wit ze bugs. It's a safe bet "they" won't give up their steak, chops and chickens nor their fillets and beef wellingtons. I'm hoping the alternative economies will be in full effect by the time they get their (not our) preferences. Nematodes and meal worms don't look very appetizing to me. When as a boy on the farm I had no idea I was walking on food, but the chickens didn't mind.

Joar Adam Nessossin. A name for a different age.

Asmodean of the Wheel of Time (the good one - not the televised one)

I am a saint
...Or am I a fraud?
I must have done some good with all that blood mony, so... Could I be both?

Charlie Hitler.

The Asmo gives this...

Of course

...And this a 50% accuracy rating, which, if combined, add up to a hundred percent, because that is how reality works because He so proclaimeth.

(It was Charlie Chaplin. Also, it seems that at least Memory Alpha remembers Kirk's origins sort-of-ish in line with how I do)

Captain James Cook?

I think that connection was made after he was already named though, no..?

Who was Star Trek's Kirk named after?

From what I remember of ancient lore, he was (first-)named after Roddenberry's mom's lover. Whether or not that is true... Well... Roddenberry wrote so, and The Asmo approves.

Tiberius is for Tiberius of Rome, although Kirk had a different middle name at one point.

The Asmo was a Treckie before Modern Day(tm) ruined it.

1. I used to have a funny moustache
2. I was mostly [or, by most] seen in black and white
3. Not that one. ;-)

Everyone knows Kenneth More sank the Bismark.
There's a very American sounding song about it but I don't think they had anything to do with it.
