Coinstar, the coin sorter at the grocery store, just asked me to make a donation to the poor, so they, obviously, don't understand why I'm using the machine.

Has anybody else used the whispered term "Drone Strike" to inform your spouse that you just farted under the sheets?
When your kid comes home from school with head lice, it's a great opportunity to work on your not-freaking-out face. But remember, if you stop sending your kid to school because of it, the head lice win. And rest assured that head lice is no more humiliating than any other aspect of being a kid.

I've never understood why my clothes are so expensive. At my age, they ought to pay me NOT to be naked.
Not sure that was really necessary.

Said to be the smartest dog in the world...
My brother told me that his dog would fetch the right toy, out of dozens, on command. Then my brother bought a new toy, say a frog, that the dog had never seen before, then my brother commanded the dog to fetch the frog. Then, after rummaging through the pile, the dog did in fact fetch the frog because it was the only one it didn't know the name of. I think that's called deductive reasoning.

I take it that by "a real man" you mean "compensating for the dimensions of one's penis"? I don't understand the allure of large-bore pistols; magnum revolvers are fine for defense against any North American critters (as fine as any consistently-usable .50 pistol can be, anyway).
Brand's junk-exposing and flipping-off of the camera is a from a shitty movie.
And to think, pigs seem to be as intelligent as dogs, and sometimes more so. Churchill supposedly said, "Cats look down on you, dogs look up to you, but pigs look you in the eye as equals." Fitting, perhaps, given our ludicrous tendency to inflate ourselves into masters of the universe.
If we treat "firetruck" as one word...

What in the name of Aleksandr Strakhov does that mean?
I would further assert that EVERY animal on earth thinks of themselves as masters of the (their) universe....like a requirement for survival.
I'm so sorry, I read it wrong. I thought you said, "a word" instead of "one word".
Oh, no worries, I was referring to the "f--uck" thing.
Regards animals: well, it's questionable whether other species "think" in the way that humans do. There are certainly things going on in other creature's nervous systems, and some critters may even have what we might consider "minds" and various other aspects of human intelligence (sentience, sapience, self-awareness, etc), but not most of them. And clearly none of them abstract their thoughts far enough away from reality to be as heavily dependent on tool use as we are. We seem to be the masters of bullshit, and I'd consider bullshit to be a coping mechanism (tool) for dealing with the absurdity of the universe.
People always talk about ravens and dolphins and chimps and shit, but just to argue against myself: consider jumping spiders. Several species of those clearly have advanced spatial mapping which could indicate some form of self-awareness. They can be on a leaf looking at a distant prey item which they can't jump to, and they'll crawl a long way down the tree and up the other one, and then pounce on the thing once it's in reach. Pretty advanced stuff for an animal that probably weighs like 1 gram or so. See also this wikipedia article on Portia, a particularly-advanced genus of jumping spiders. Neat stuff.
There's also natural stuff besides abstract thought that would blow our minds if we could do it with our bodies (or make ourselves into cyborgs, I guess). For instance, many birds, shrimps, and butterflies can see more gradations of color in the spectrum than we can (that is to say, where we'd look at two swatches and say they're identical "cobalt blue" or whatever, other creatures could see two different shades). They can also see into the ultraviolet (see the Eyes subsection of the wiki article on Mantis shrimp; fucking incredible).
Snakes can detect infrared with the pits on their faces, and studies of their nervous systems indicate that they integrate this stimulus with their visual stimulus (it's literally processed in the same part of their optic tectum). So, while infrared can't be processed by an optical lens because its wavelength is too long, snakes can nonetheless be said to "see" in infrared, in some sense.
One other thing: elephants (and other mammals, especially cetaceans) can communicate in infrasound (very low-frequency sound that our ears can't detect). Bats, sloths, insects and some other creatures use ultrasound for detection and/or communication (high-frequency we can't hear).
When pondering this shit I always wonder, "What is it like to 'hear' things I can't hear or 'see' things I can't see?" I mean, what is the actual experience like for the given animal? What would it look like to see more blue in one shade of blue? What would that extra blue look like? Bluier? I'll never know. But there are many foreign worlds like that being experienced by other species every instant of every day...
Damn, nature, you scary!
Just thought I would let you know, I built and own that "Tractorbike" Larry
And quite proud you should be, Larry. It's beautiful.
