Why to prevent suicide and increase fidelity.

Nobody ones to kill themselves if they're having great orgasms. I sure wouldn't.

Would you?

Personally I am not bothered.

Why? Should I be bothered?

LoL,

I was just trying to compute this one in my head and watched the right hand side and ...huh, why zero, until I also saw the zero on the left side

Sadly you two may have just managed to ruin this thread, stopping me from carrying it to 2000 posts. Do you have idea what you fools have done? You went off topic in an off topic thread!


Not since the days of jellitivity have i seen anything so foolishly foolish.

By zargling's hammer, i shall be avenged!

Little known fact: Zargling's hammer is not in fact a hammer. What is it really?

What's a Birmingham Screwdriver?


An birmingham screwdriver happens to be a rather twisted version of a long island iced tea. It involves replacing the triple sec with absinthe, lighting the whole mixture on fire, dousing it with splash of coke, and using a shot of aftershock as a chaser.

There is also its derivative, the Mobile Screwdriver is less well known. What is the reciped for this concotion?

Well as a Birmingham screwdriver gives rise to this:

BS = absinthe + fire+ coke + aftershock

Take absinthe to be t^3
Take fire to be t^6
Take coke to be t
Take aftershock to be t^2

Then BS = t^6 + t^3 + t^2 + t

So \frac{BS}{dt} = 6t^5 + 3t^2 + 2t + 1

So I think the recipe is quite strange but more regular in shape.

Is this close to being right?

Well, no, you've got the wrong initial recipe for the birmingham screwdriver. It should be:

BS = long island iced tea - triple sec +absinthe +fire +coke + aftershock

This reduces to

BS = rum + tequila + gin + vodka +absinthe + 2 coke +aftershock

Using the corrected recipe for a Birmingham screwdriver, what do you get for the Mobile Screwdriver?

The mobile screwdriver is a twisted version of the BS. Take the long island iced tea; switch the triple sec with absinthe; while you're being absinthe-minded set your hair on fire; run around like a loco coco; pass out from the aftershock !

It couldn't possibly. You lack the GATTACA sequence in your genome--quite simply, you're physically incapable of blushing. The GATTACA sequence codes for a little known protein, thycyclinamine, which enables the facial muscles to draw extra blood when the organism is perturbed by a stimulus.

Who discovered this protein and the genetic sequence that produces it?

Mother Nature.

How do you make a Stealth Kitty?
You wait for the female house cat to come into heat, then attempt to open any door leading to the outside…
*can you say ‘kitty litter’?*


What would be the first thing you would do if you possessed the flexibility of a cat?

I only count replies. The first post is the thread start, so it doesn't count. A thread with zero replies is a dud, although it has "one" post.

So, either can claim it. :-p
 
  • #2,003
Well let the thread die then. A group of us saved it and now it has reached this total. Personally I don't see the problem with letting it go on. If people are annoyed by it then ignore it.

Will we ever see 3000 for this thread?

Don't worry. You will get to see 3000 posts go by.

So let's start here.

Why was this thread invented in the first place?
