I'd like a plush Tali too. But especially Liara. Apparently Kai Arts has let the Mass Effect license lapse and McFarlane has picked it up because they are making new 7" action figures, so far just announced BroShep. I'm not particularly hopeful they will produce Liara either because Todd McFarlane is one of the creepy bros in comics that thinks women can't understand comics so its no point making comics which appeal to us.

Also Moa tends to smile bigger and stick out her tongue (especially when introducing herself when she says "desu" which is why she lisps during Babymetal Death), and Yui is currently slightly taller and has the deeper voice of the two.

A painter in Los Angeles kept missing his exit for the I-5 on the 110 highway, so he did his research, climbed up the overhead sign, and changed it himself without anyone noticing.

This is Richard Ankrom. He couldn’t find his damn exit, cuz it wasn’t properly labelled.

http://99percentinvisible.org/app/uploads/2015/02/Screen-Shot-2015-02-06-at-12.19.18-PM.png

http://67.media.tumblr.com/8c62b02e88eeee4532dd92f19620dbb9/tumblr_inline_o87r1eRxTg1sjh1ps_1280.jpg

So he took life by the balls, like any self-respecting Californian would do, and used his sign-painting expertise to fix it himself.

http://66.media.tumblr.com/d51086fc8a2f5f5a597c88c8d9361ef0/tumblr_inline_o87r1fV10U1sjh1ps_1280.jpg

He called it ‘guerilla public service.’ Even got himself an outfit to look official. It worked, obvi.

http://66.media.tumblr.com/bd6d39dbd68fccc86bc58c1b3a1f66b7/tumblr_inline_o87r1fWFRk1sjh1ps_1280.jpg

http://99percentinvisible.org/app/uploads/2015/02/Screen-Shot-2015-02-06-at-1.17.31-PM.png

The whole installation took less than 30 minutes. As soon as the sign was up, Ankrom packed up his ladder, rushed back to his truck, and blended back into the city.

Ankrom had hoped he could get his sign back from Caltrans after they took it down; he figured he would hang it in an art gallery. But Caltrans didn’t take the sign down. His guerrilla sign had passed the Caltrans inspection.

http://66.media.tumblr.com/12818c50cd56919af17bd90b79f8679c/tumblr_inline_o87r1e6bYJ1sjh1ps_1280.jpg

More than eight years after Ankrom’s sign went up, he got call from a friend who noticed some workers taking it down. His sign was being replaced with as part of routine maintenance.

When the new sign went up, however, Caltrans had added the I-5 North shield not only to it, but also to two additional signs up the road.

I can relate, with my anxiety I've never really been to any concerts or festivals. I'd like to though, but never had anyone to go with. I did go to the goth/industrial club Slimelight in london once, even had two gorgeous goth girls hanging nearby us all night but we were so clueless we had no idea they were hanging near us because they wanted to talk to us until a female friend mentioned it later on, talk about fail. There aren't many industrial fests but I'd go to infest or Resistanz if I could ever find someone to accompany me that understood my health issues.

I blame Games Day. The amount of seriously stinky people you got stuck behind was ridiculous.

So ridiculous, if anyone has a working Warseer pass, you could probably search for a thread entitled 'Smelly People', and find my little rant about it.

One year? Around the time Raveners were first seen for Tyranids, there was a bloke reeking of stale weewee. And other 'aromas'. Just.....eurgh.

I could never deal with games day from the photos, so you are braver than me for going there hehe. I know there are some medical conditions that cause people to give off an unpleasant smell so I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but yeah it is pretty hard to deal with that, it's certainly made me leave a few places...

I need to play this game, if only to play as an incredibly dorky gamer in a mech.

It's also really fun to run the mech into the middle of an area and use her "ultimate" to suicide bomb it, then call in a replacement mech. Can't do it often, but when you can... good fun.

She can also soak up a lot of damage in the mech (and is a "tank" for that reason), but once she's out of it (if you self-destruct it or it gets shot up)... well, either run around a lot trying not to get hit, or just accept death and respawn with a new mech.

one of my favorite obscure-ish stories is “Le Loyon”, an unknown person who has been seen walking through the woods near a swiss town decked out in a cape, full gas mask, and military attire. theyve been sighted for over 10 years, never behaving aggressively but obviously freaking out the locals.

in 2013 their costume was found with a note stating that they were leaving, that “the risk of a hunt for a beast became too great” and “the feeling of insecurity grew”.

someone out there has pretty much become a legend by lurking around a forest in a gas mask, but they werent in it for infamy, and just wanted to be left alone to do whatever it is they did. kind of sad really. i admire them greatly, whoever they are

only one photo of them was ever taken, after they looked at the photographer and silently walked away

Red Dwarf XI coming in September.

HUZZAH!

http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/news/2016/06/24/red-dwarf-xi-coming-soon/

It's been a long wait, we know, since Red Dwarf XI was filmed at the end of last year. And we know just how desperate you've been for even a smidgen of information about what's in store for the Dwarfers in the upcoming eleventh series. And if you think it's been tough for you folks, just imagine how difficult it's been for us to have to sit on this stuff for all that time...

But today, we're able to give you not one, but two, pretty big pieces of information. First of all, while the specific day is yet to be confirmed, we can now announce that Series XI of Red Dwarf will be broadcast on Dave in September 2016. Officially.

And as if that wasn't enough, we're sure that the next big reveal will give you plenty to chew over for a little while. Because production have also released the official Series XI synopsis. Look at it, there it is, right there, just below this here paragraph:

Red Dwarf XI, the eleventh series of the legendary sci-fi comedy, reunites the original cast of Chris Barrie (Rimmer), Craig Charles (Lister), Danny John-Jules (Cat) and Robert Llewellyn (Kryten) along with a host of guest stars for a brand new series recorded in front of a live studio audience at Pinewood Studios. The series is written and directed by Red Dwarf co-creator, Doug Naylor, and produced by Richard Naylor and Kerry Waddell for Baby Cow Productions & Grant Naylor Productions.

The show's six episode run sees two of the Dwarfers' dreams come true: Rimmer accidentally saves the life of a Space Corps Captain and is promoted to Officer, while Cat takes time off from being in love with himself to fall in love with a female Cat with a secret. Meantime, Lister wakes up to discover a deranged droid has stolen some of his body parts and Kryten has a mid-life crisis and considers leaving the Dwarfers for a younger crew. The posse also find themselves in an alternative America where modern technology is outlawed, making both Kryten and Rimmer illegal.

With big laughs and dazzling effects, Red Dwarf XI recaptures the show's golden age.

Pretty exciting, eh? But you know what the most exciting part is? The above description doesn't even tell you the half of it. Seriously, there is so much packed into these six episodes that a synopsis like this can only scratch the surface of what's in store. In fact, when the series gets to screens you're going to wonder how we managed to keep it all in for this long...

Red Dwarf XI will air exclusively on Dave in September 2016!

See, I always like Quiz (http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Quiz_(New_Earth)) from the Brotherhood of Dada. Her power was having every power you hadn't thought of.

When the Doom Patrol rush to fight her, they're listing every power they can think of when they're suddenly trapped in giant glass jars.

Well, be careful what you wish for. Based on some of the buildings shown in the video, it seems it was filmed in Iqaluit, Nunavut (Canada). For several years I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska (USA) which is on a similar parallel (Fairbanks is about 70 miles further north).

Last year sometime, some coworkers and I were having fun with some NASA images from Mars. Apparently there was an image which various conspiracy theorists said showed a woman walking on Mars (actually, if you tilt your head and think of England, it did kinda remind me of Mary Poppins). Then, I took another look and sent this to some Whovians in the office:

I'm guessing the stuff in the quiz must be rather region specific, there were multiple questions that made no sense. Like what on earth is 'Mork and Mindy'? (Answer for me was wildly incorrect, but see above.)

Kirsten

YorkNecromancer

07-15-2016, 11:00 AM

what on earth is 'Mork and Mindy'?

How does anyone not know what 'Mork and Mindy' is?

Okay, so there was this TV show called 'Happy Days', and it had hit a rut. Where previously it had been a gentle character comedy about American teenagers and 50's nostalgia, the writers were, to a man, burned out, and had reached the point of throwing random sh!t at the wall to see what stuck. They'd had main character Arthur 'The Fonz' Fonzerelli jump a shark on waterskis, and that had pretty much signalled the end of things (although they didn't know it at the time) and they were now completely out of ideas. So one of the writers went 'We haven't done aliens yet', and the other guys were all so out of f**ks that they went 'Sure, why not?'.

This was a TERRIBLE idea, but no-one, absolutely no-one cared, so the job got approved.

Enter this guy called Robin Williams. It was the end of the Seventies, and he was a stand-up comedian known for his frankly astonishing capacity at improvisation - a capacity fuelled by what can only be termed a 'heroic' consumption of cocaine. Robin Williams was cast as the alien, named Mork, from Planet Ork. Yes, that's how bad the scripts had got.

What no-one expected was just how good Robin Williams was. Through sheer drug-fuelled charisma, the man delivered one of the most amazing performances the show had ever seen, creating a classic episode in the process. Something that should have been warmed over turd and the nail in the coffin of an ailing, once-great show, was somehow the best thing 'Happy Days' had seen in years.

And hence, 'Mork and Mindy' was created: a spin off, where Mork, whose alien remit was to observe life on Earth, would try to fit in with regular society, ably abetted by his only human friend, Mindy, a regular gal-next door type. The scripts largely consisted of 'Robin just does some funny sh!t' and the rest is history.

It's a good show, albeit somewhat dated, and season 1 is definitely worth it to see just how talented Robin Williams was in his youth. I mean, he was amazing. He burned out pretty quick though - his cocaine addiction was not good for anyone, and was only compounded by how stifling he felt the character of Mork had become.

Anyway, yeah. That's what 'Mork and Mindy' is.

What had me laughing from that quiz was the inclusion of both "Mork and Mindy" and pogs. Anyone old enough to know about "Mork and Mindy" (enough to know episodes at any rate) are likely not going to know what a pog is.

In the UK, Mork and Mindy was repeated a lot on Channel 4 in the mornings in the early 90s, after the kids TV programs. So it's actually really great indicator of age for a certain group of people.

YorkNecromancer

07-16-2016, 03:19 AM

Yup. I remember watching 'Mork and Mindy' when I was about ten, and then Pogs came out when I was around fifteen or something.

England's always been America's poor cousin when it comes to US TV shows and the like. We either don't get them because they never arrive, don't get them until maybe twenty years later, or don't get them because they're on channel 5 on a Tuesday at half past midnight.

Meanwhile, we get endless slow-moving dramas about city lawyers going through marriage difficulties, slow-moving dramas about country lawyers going through marriage difficulties, and slow-moving dramas about police. Who are normally going through marriage difficulties.

This is, like ninety per cent of UK-made 'drama TV for adults'. The only time it's ever good is when it's written by Jimmy McGovern, whose writing is AMAZING; 'Cracker' remains an absolute high point of British TV, and the episode of his series 'Accused' where Sean Bean played a trans teacher (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-53G0q5oGc) was one of the finest roles Bean's ever had.

I bloody love me some Jimmy McGovern.

Mr Mystery

07-16-2016, 04:28 AM

I think, on balance, the UK makes more competent TV than the US.

thats not to say the US doesn't pump out top notch quality stuff (for me, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, sci-fi in general), but our output often feels more realistic - less senselessly happy endings. Fewer 20-somethings inexplicably living the high life in low to middle income jobs which frankly they never really seem to go and do.

Compare Friends to Teachers. Both are contemporaneous shows, with broadly similar cast types. One is scarily accurate and bloody hilarious, the other is 10 seasons of a single joke which I didn't find funny the first time. Similarly, can you ever see the US producing something as (apologies for media ponce talk) zeitgeisty as 'This Life'?

Oh, and if you want to talk about nature documentaries?

Sir David is willing to accept your unconditizonal surrender - you will seriously never find a man more in utterly respectful awe of all aspects of our natural world.

CoffeeGrunt

07-16-2016, 04:57 AM

Both have their merits, both have their awful shows to be fair. I can't stand Made in Chelsea anymore than I can bear Friends, but both tend to have their strengths. US TV shows tend to handle high-budget stuff better due to the money they throw at it. Game of Thrones couldn't really be made by any other nation.

Conversely, British comedy is clearly objectively superior, British Top Gear was a worldwide phenomenon for a reason, and we do our small-scale stuff like Sherlock pretty well.

Plus apparently British kids shows are incredibly-popular worldwide, and our childrens' authors are top-notch. America may have the Kingslayer himself, George RR Martin for adult stuff, but we've got Rowling, Dahl, and a tonne of others. The main ingredient we seem to nail is not talking down to kids in our media.

Path Walker

07-16-2016, 05:27 AM

I think when it comes to comedy, we just have a totally different style of writing it that leads to some brilliant stuff (and a lot of crap). We tend to have small teams, maybe one or two people, writing the whole show, rather than a large writing staff that work on stuff then bringing it all together under a showrunner. Its also because we often make "seasons" (as seems to entered common parlance now) with fewer episodes, instead of having to fill 24+.

Compare the US The Office (which is really lovely and very funny but with some noticeable dips in quality and each season is a bit flabby) with the UK version which was written by two people at the absolute top of their game and is a genuine work of comedic art, every line is well worked out and each moment is perfect.

Asymmetrical Xeno

07-16-2016, 06:35 AM

Hrm, I'm not so sure either way personally. I think the US produces more in terms of quantity so it may have more better shows due to that that. Perhaps your point on realism maybe correct though - I hate all of the gritty crime dramas we produce because they are too close to reality for example, so I can't really comment on that since it's a taste-bias. Aside from Psychoville and Miranda I can't think of any noteworthy comedies we've made lately, but neither can I think of any US comedies iv liked - I tend to prefer japanese comedy more these days. I think our fantasy tv shows have been bottom of the barrel terrible (robin hood, atlantis, merlin, dr who ect) while US fantasy has been pretty good imo (GoT ect), US has some good horror shows too (Wynona Earp being the most recent I enjoyed) not so sure on Sci-fi - the only recent US SF show I like is The Expanse, and the only UK one I thought was any good was Black Mirror but I generally think 99% tv/movie SF is terrible anyway.
