The Speech Impediment Of The 21st Century (by Marc Johns)

an entertaining thing to do would be to replace every instance of “for ritual purposes” in any archeology article with “for funsies”

A short list of realizations from tonight’s photo sorting/editing session:

I have taken a truly astonishing number of photos of hockey players making ridiculous faces.

Over half of these involve tongues. So many that I literally made a Lightroom tag called ‘put that thing back in your mouth’.

Evidence points to the Carolina Hurricanes system requiring players to stick said tongue out when making a shot.

We could probably power Canada with Jeff Skinner’s grin. Someone should get on that.

I think the biggest german discussion is when you meet someone from a different area in Germany and they call things differently and you are just like “nooooo that is not what it’s name is!!!” But the other person just won’t see your point because they think the same you think. Friendship can break over this folks.
