    Coincidentally enough, someone bought me this shirt in an attempt to bribe me into participating in Toronto Pride. I have yet to wear it.

    Another wee Star Wars one: there is a story that when Ewan McGregor was filming lightsabre fights, the producers had to take him aside and remind him: "We'll do the sound effects."

    You can actually do it with a satellite and a huge shell to pull the earth. So one rocket full of
    a really fast and efficient construction crew with a few trillion tons of steel. :p

    In Canada, there are now delivery services that will bring half-quarters (3.5 grams) of killer weed to your door for $4.

    [Recreational marijuana will be legal to sell here in Michigan on December 1st. Only took a year after we voted for legalization. The blue-noses will have their way.]

    Useless to those of us who don't live in Canada, unless they deliver across the bridge(s).

    Although military working dogs do have "playtime" with their handlers, they are never ever taught to play "fetch."

    Saves misunderstandings when Daddy and his new friends are tossing hand grenades at each other.

    The fact that this is a thing means that this is something that almost definitely happened in the past and it makes me sad.

    That made me laugh. Then I thought about the poor grenade being mishandled and sadness slammed upon my emotional shore. :(

    The fear of long words was given the term hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go cry in a corner.
