As much as I love a good thread about shit, the health benefits of this sort of thing were thoroughly debunked a century ago.

Judging by Goldberg's face, he didn't just look like he stank.

That picture's photoshopped. Houchen doesn't go. It's what he does.

WCW folded?? Fuck.

Unbelievable. This man was a god to me. I'm going to chalk this down to Macho Man dropping one last elbow from the heavens.

Texas man thinks he's captured a chupacabra

Yeah nice one, when did they stop being up right walking aliens with spines on the back? now they look like manky dogs.
Â
That's always been my understanding of the description, or variations of. I've never heard the Chupcabra being referred to or described as an alien.
The original Chupacabra was lifted straight from the film Species and had the alien spine shit going on. The description has since been toned down to something akin to a manky dog because all sightings of it since have actually been sightings of manky dogs.
-
It's clearly the most reasonable explanation. Pesky governments, always confiscating new species.

Bifkin. Post more here. Spam less on Facebook.

'I Know What I Saw', it's one of the best UFO related documentaries i've seen. It pretty much revolved around the documentary maker visiting pretty respected individuals who have reported sightings and asking their stories. It also goes into a UFO commission type deal where all these people (pilots, army chiefs etc), ask for the government to look into these sightings or simply admit that they wern't lying. It's worth a look simply because none of the people involved seem like the usual whacked out loons that usually see shit.
I'm always wary of 'respectable' UFO documentaries because eye-witness testimony is, unfortunately, bunk. It doesn't matter how respectable the citizen. It's also always worth bearing in mind that 'unidentified' isn't a synonym for 'alien'.

I don't know how many of you will be interested in this, but I've been doing some reading on Fringe Science (thanks to the tv series) and came across this really interesting theory:
Â
Â
Essentially, we're all taught in school that oil is created by dead sea creatures laid down millions of years ago and then compressed geologically to create oil, but there's not a huge amount of proof for this. The abiogenic theory is that oil comes from carbon deposits way, way down in the earth's crust that is pushed up into oil deposits nearer the surface. This would explain the presence of things like methane on other planets in the solar system where there's no life.
Â
If the theory is true, it would mean that there's probably a LOT more oil than we thought, practically an infinite supply.
Â
The main proponent is a chap called Thomas Gold, who was an incredibly respected scientist and not to be dismissed lightly.
The very article you linked to says "The weight of evidence currently shows that petroleum is derived from ancient biomass."

I'd love the BBC to pony up and send their African wild animal team out into the British landcape to actually try and film one. If those guys can't find one, I'll accept it's not there. They hunt down all sorts of rare animals in much larger areas.
There have been plenty of BBC documentaries filmed in the UK and there are camera traps all over the place. I know there is some supporting evidence for the big cat thing but I can't help but remain sceptical.

Best German beer I've had is HoeGarden
Is that not Belgian? I put on 2 stone in one year after discovering wheat beer. Tasty, tasty, nasty, heavy stuff.
-
It's a fucking god-send. You've got a variety of lagers and wheat beers to rival the British selection of ales and not one of them contains anything other than water, hops and cereal. It's the god's honest truth that there was a point in my life where my presence in Germany was no longer required and I stayed just for their lager.
Out of interest, which of their lagers are your favourites?
I like a Jever, as mentioned, and I'd recommend a Joh. Albrecht Messing. From the commercial lagers you can find in every shop here, I'd go for Veltins.
-
Apologies in advance, but I can't really contribute much to the ale side of the discussion, having spent the last ten years in an aleless land, but I'll be fucked if I'm staying out of a beer thread just because British lagers are wank. German lager is a beer as far as I'm concerned.
Â
the German Beer Purity Law ensures that their lagers aren't full of chemicals and other shitIt's a fucking god-send.

Personally I love a good hoppy beer, to a point of course. You're right about the Beer in America though. I had so many good ones mostly from the West Coast when I was there. I was in San Diego for a couple of days which is beer heaven.My beer preferences are on the hoppy side too. Back to German lagers... anyone travelling in the north of Germany who wants their cock blown off by the tastiest, hoppiest lager of all time needs to get a pint of Jever.
-
No ales though, it's lager all the way over there.
I live over there and I miss my ale. Luckily, German lager is fucking heavenly and even the worst German pils I've ever tasted pisses on your Carlings and Stellas.

I cannot watch Helen Mirren in anything without wanting to stick my nose slightly inside her rusty bullet hole.

For an acknowledged miserable bastard, Bifkin, you sure do smile a lot in pictures. Too bad you had to get old, stallion. I remember the drugged-up, curry guzzling Bifkin with some affection. I still have that picture of the crew somewhere, but Buford would hate me if I posted it, as would you I reckon
You must never post the picture.

That must be one of the roughest things that can ever happen to anyone. Sorry to hear it man.

Not sure when she joined but this is my first account here.

Of course! That's been bothering me since I first saw him. Thanks.sloth from the Goonies.

Jesus Christ. The universe was never meant to cope with so much bollocks in one hit. We're fucked.

It's a bit unfair comparing one amazing Indycar clip to one mildly embarrassing GP2 clip. I've seen crashes in Indycar that would make your cock fall off and I've seen overtakes in GP2 that would re-attach it.
Â
Don't get me wrong, I agree in principle with all the criticisms of GP2 that have been mentioned, but the gulf in skill isn't quite what the gulf between those clips would suggest.

That's the sort of thing we expect MI5 to do, right? Otherwise what's the point in them.
Yeah, no need for concern there. How else is an Oxbridge suit supposed to get information? Apart from sellotaping a beard to his face and heading off to Mali, obviously.

There's not really any such thing as excess shit. That's what your arsehole is for.

You lost your right to challenge anyone to a shit-off when you decided to start using shitting aids.
