A clip of Douglas adams describing a conversation with an Australian Venom expert, who pretty much hates everything do with venom, animals, people, pretty much everything but hydroponics and little cakes.
"I can't stand all these venomous things, people getting bitten all the time, asking me what to do about it. Don't get bitten in the first place. That's the answer. I've had enough of telling people all the time. " (What do I do if I get bitten by a deadly creature?) "Well, what do you think you do? You die, of course. That's what "deadly" means."
This guy is just hilarious in how much he just literally does not give a fuck about anything but Hydroponics and little cakes(Some of which he keeps in the venom fridge) - Even when outright asked if there is anything he does like he says "Yes. Hydroponics." - coupled with how utterly deadpan he is about pretty much everything.
I'm not sure I believe this story, but it claims that almost everything we know about the bible is wrong because it's all been horribly mistranslated. That's not the part that has me hesitating to believe the article's claims. What gave me pause was this:
Research Head Christopher Tyreman states that what they have found, proves without a doubt, that the Bible has been grossly mistranslated and that their findings expose this fact with glaring simplicity. He further stated that he finds it interesting that a group of lay researchers were able to see and assemble what they call "Self Defining Hebrew or the SDH System" while experts seemed unaware of its existence.
The team also wished people to understand that this is not a bible code, but the system the original language was built on.
Its construct shows it to be a manufactured system of massive complexity, using only twenty two words, which when mixed, can supply a complete language.
Mr. Tyreman also added that the form of this language shows it could not have evolved from surrounding cultures as it is incapable of importing words from outside language. This alone points to an origination outside of the scope of the presently held theories of language development. These findings could have a major impact on how Science and religion look at our beginnings.
I dunno. Something smells fishy with this article.
I'm white-texting this, so anyone who hasn't watched the video yet doesn't get it spoiled: I love how it has multiple "reveals" -- at first, you're like "Oh, it's kids playing army -- cute." Then the animated gunfire and explosions start, and you're like "Oh, awesome, they animated 'kids playing army' -- those kids sure are having fun!" And then the blood. And the headshots. And the drug lab. And you're like "OHHHhhhh...it's kids playing warring drug gangs, with home invasion executions and everything. This is heavier than I thought it was gonna be. Must be some kind of commentary on violence in the media."

Seriously though, I love the way that guy goes on.
In RE: Dubstep Dancing
I had no idea I already knew how to dance to dubstep.
