Aren't most pulp trees planted and harvested just like any other crop? At least in the US? I don't think we're cutting down old growth for shit tickets these days.

In fairness, 83.5% of that is used by women to make the enormous beehives they use for each wipe.

Yup. They are called managed forests.

A huge percentage is recycled paper, too. It's not the old days anymore. But that's not going to stop the bidet thread from growing like a pernicious weed.

I can still remember the serial number of the weapon (M16A2 if you care) in Iraq.  In 2003.

Good ol' 1772908....

Had a Winchester Model 1894 with a 3 digit serial number.

Well, I do have a big ass.

Yesterday I passed the car that has Texas license plate “1”. My odds of doing that were probably higher than one out of a million.

I once saw Chicago taxi #1 and got a kick out of how stupid it was that I gave as much of a shit as I unexpectedly did.

Yea, there are "probably" more than a million cars in texas.

Kinda wild. On Saturday, I parked next to the car that had some western state (I think it was South Dakota, but I can't remember for sure) license plate "1". I was at a cafe in Virginia at the time. I'm wondering if all 50 states have somebody with a vanity plate quite that vain. Surely not, right? Vt, maybe, skips straight to "2"?

[Hornius Emeritus 12457]

Random thought: The UT San Antonio Roadrunners need to play the South Dakota Coyotes in a game of football. Coyote vs. Roadrunner? That's epic. This game needs to happen.

A friend’s family is from St. Lucia. When the government decided there were enough cars to finally warrant license plates, the original ones were handed out in numerical order. The Prime Minister got number 1. My friend’s grandma got #2. Since you could keep it when getting a new car, that license plate number has been in the family ever since.

Number 1 plates remind me of me burns SSN.

the arguments on the Internet-- like those on the football board-- get dumber every year

but my tolerance for stupidity somehow goes up over time as well

so I keep arguing even though it's practically never a positive, engaging experience

I kind of deserve what I'm getting

The trophy would be an Anvil.  The could call it the Acme Bowl.

That tank in The Last Crusade had an awfully roomy interior.

Considering it was just the four of them, it would have appeared extra roomy to us.   a full crew in a Mark VIII would have been 10 guys.  

The woman that played Elsa is holding up extremely well after all these years, much better than the tank.  

[Buffsoldier 1895]

Today's reason why I'm a bad person: Drove past a butcher shop on the drive into work. They were clearly in the final stages of mopping up after what appeared to be a pretty severe fire. Holes cut in the walls, smoke damage everywhere, Etc. Despite the obvious tragedy of the situation, losing a local small business, literally the only thing I could think was: "Damn, I'll bet that smelled delicious..."

That's brilliant.  They'd have to play at a stadium in the desert though.

Probably not enough fan interest to hold it in some neutral site stadium out there like UNM, UNLV, et. al.  You could use those big curtains they used to have in the Alamodome for Spurs games and have UTSA theater students adorn them with the exact same desert patters they used on the cartoon.  It was basically the same 3-4 scenes repeating themselves.  You use those curtains to also cover up the huge chunks of seats that nobody is going to be using either.  It's a win-win. 

It would have to be a buyout game anyway since South Dakota is FCS.  But Acme hosts, but in reality is a front for Cartoon Network or whoever wants to foot the bill.    Tom Brokaw, USD's proudest son, serving as emcee of the whole affair.  The cartoon is still under the rights of Warner Bros., owned by AT&T who still has a massive presence in San Antonio (albeit in different fields).  

I say we do this.

I’m really confused by all that you just said, but I’m willing to be the analyst for the tv broadcast.

I wonder what Elsa would consider a full tank, 4 guys? 10?

Remember that time we ran a panzer III on that broad?   She loved it.

There are few things in this life that can make you as glad to be on the straight and narrow as watching all the woodland creatures out in the bright mid-morning sun, making fun of the bedraggled party rabbit on his staggering way home, doing the hop of shame.

[El Diablo 4232]

Pretty sure that's a sign of the rabies.

Fuck.  I'm at work and was dumb enough to watch that.  I had my headphones on, but I'm sure that my laughing sounded almost as funny as that chicken.
