Raiser's Rambunctiously Rambling Random Banter #98

[Skippy]

I wanna participate on Rawhide's Flame Wars!!! *picks a weapon*
*Flames*

[Raiser Blade]

I found him hilarious. Most of the time. Everytime you talked to him he claimed he was something different:
Sometimes he was elderly.
Sometimes he was a kid.
Sometimes he was serious.
Sometime he was spastic.
Sometimes he was straight.
Sometimes he was gay.
Sometimes he was a she.

D'anna was awesome. I miss his/her/its randomness.

[Jibar]

Meep.

History.

God damn you Hitler.

[Felixaar]

woo! History! and hitler was alright... he just happened to be an *******.

[Groundhog]

Hmmm...I never considered *******s to be all right, I thought those two terms were mutually exclusive. Nor did I ever consider genocidal maniacs to be all right. Again, mutually exclusive terms.

[Jibar]

I couldn't care less about what he was like. What do I do care about is the fact that he had to be assigned to the source analysis section.
Git.

[Player_Zero]

Yes... Hitler was somewhat of a git, huh? Darn him indeed.


P.S. Tony Stark built this thread in a cave! With a box of scraps!

Player Zero? Are you feeling alright? Your posts are exhibiting... crazy syndome.

I've been told to get more iron into my diet. On the shopping list is canned spinach (to be combined with soup for cream-of-spinach soup), some liver (it's been ages, maybe I'll like it now, and it's cheap enough to bear experiment), and black pudding (no proper blood sausage here). Any other foods which spring to mind?

I had not expected my housemate to be so pushy on matters medical. He's leaning on the Not Only Was I a Medic During My National Service, I Was Head of the Medics, So Do As I'm Telling You authority. I look forward to telling him that I did _not_ march myself to a doctor as ordered because they're all taking the day off like the _rest_ of the country is (except those who work for multinationals).

[Serpentine]

Kangaroo... good red meat in general, really.
Also, whatever happened to D'anna? >goes to investigate<

[banjo1985]

D'anna's gone?

*searches*

Dang, D'anna was funny.

In related news, I moved out of the family home last week into my own apartment with my girlfriend, and I have a stuff related question. How can junk from two peoples bedrooms combine to fill up 4 rooms of an apartment without being added to? It defies logic dammit!

It's all Jenny Sparks fault. If she'd just kept her big yap shut about how bad his art really was...

I thought D'anna left a while back in a storm of high drama a few months back?
(It's how he/she/it would have wanted to go)

[Serpentine]

Apparently he signed on today, so I guess not?

[Hydrogelic]

Ahoy everyone ; Is thate anyone still here who remembers me ?

It's been a while since my last visit >_>

[Serpentine]

Hmm... I think I do remember you, but alas nothing specific.

[Hydrogelic]

Finally some sort of reply to a post ; I was begginiong to lose hope >_<

Last I was here I think I was posting about being an emotional wreck over some girl, at about half 3 in the morning while heavilly drunk.

It's been a while since then.

Because junk expands to fill all the available storage area.

Iron content of various foods/drinks
Food / Drink Iron content (mg)
1 pint of guinness 0.3mg
100g ready-to-eat apricots 3.4mg
100g ready-to eat prunes 2.6mg
1 egg 1.1mg
bowl of weetabix 4.2mg
bowl of porridge (40g) 1.6mg
3 oz grilled lamb chop 1.9mg


The RDA (recommended daily allowance) of iron for men is 11mg and 14mg for women. Needs can be higher in women who have high menstrual losses.

I advise Weetabix and apricots twice a day.

Guinness is not as great for you as I'd hoped... neither is red meat.

[Serpentine]

Red meat has the extra chemicals you need to absorb it, though. Is that table total iron content, or the iron that's actually useable?

What stops one from simply eating an anchor?

Apart from enraged sailors? Oh, and the relative hardness of teeth and steel of course. Not much really...

Liver. Lots of iron. Also grosses out small children.

Tony Stark was able to build this thread in a cave! With a bunch of scraps!

Also, I don't have crazy syndrome; everyone else does. ...They don't know it yet either. It's sad, really... When you think about it... All those people out there who think that they're perfectly sane, and go about their lives with a sense of direction, not hounded the infinite despair of oblivion in their heart... Still, good job they're all a figment of my imagination, really, or else things could really get depressing.

That's awesome.

Also, fun fact:I didn't revise at all, yet the three subjects I know best, one in each area, all turned up today. The NEP, Lloyd George's fall in 1922 and anti-semitism in Germany.
Can I get a f*** yes?

Yeah, so I'm working on the Cat-Muffinmicon.

Oh, and Disneycinemagic had like a marathon of Kim Possible this morning. It was awesome.

[Skippy]

Kim Possible FTW.

Anyway, large topic change.

Kill Bill in 30 seconds and reenacted by bunnies.
