Could be worse, Rova.

Jesus tap-dancing christ!!!

[Chukchi Husky]

When I first saw it, I thought it was the one in the Caucasus mountains.

Once there was an earthquake in this part of England, and I slept through it, but I think one of the worst kind of natural disaster that could happen where I live is if the Island of La Palma collapses., but other than that nothing interesting happens. I guess that's what happens if you live in England.

....I hadn't in my wildest dreams even THOUGHT pictures like that we're on the internet...

I sort of did, but I guess I'm just weird.

We Kansas get God's finger o' death.


Scientifically known as tornadoes. I can't really imagine much scarier than watching a 3 mile wide funnel of AIR bearing down on you at about 60 miles an hour. Causing havoc and what not.


A couple years ago, this city Greensburg literally got wiped off the map by an F-5.. 5 miles wide:

Actually the Greensburg Tornado was 1.7 miles wide. It is extremely rare for a tornado - even an F5, to get any larger than one mile in diameter.

And 60mph is nothing. I've -driven- in 60mph winds with no tornado, and when they are in tornado form, it's just a really strong F1. That'll do nothing more than blow you over or topple your car if it doesn't have a solid center of gravity, or tear the shingles on your house.

F5s come at you with 170-200+mph winds. The force of these things can tear entire roads out of the ground.

Sorry for the nitpicking, I just had to point out that your entire post contained false information.

I never thought I would see these pictures on this forum.

THAT'S IT, THE INTERNET IS OVER. EVERYONE GO HOME.

I dont know... the scorpion one is kinda hot.

[DarkJuno]

Oh, those. They are actually PSA's of some kind. What? I have no idea. x_o

And I think the man-ass might be pushing it, but whatever.

You misquote the 60mph, it wasn't spinning at 60 mph, it was MOVING at 60mph as in speed of travel. And yeah I dunno where I got the 5 miles wide, that was fail of my part. So not all of my post was false, there was one typo on my part. As for the 3 mile wide statement, that was part of the humor of the God's finger o' death joke. I wasn't trying to state facts right there.

Could be worse, Rova.

I think Catt carried around those two pics once.


It was for school work. I think.


Besides chelicerata can't get that big I think, they wouldn't be able to get another oxygen (at least this is true of insects). But I mean we don't get pig sized spiders, and we're better for it too I feel...

Did you know that the UK has the highest number of reported tornadoes per unit area of any country in the world? I didn't until just now. I'm sure I'll sleep much easier tonight. And most UK tornado reports are from the Western Midlands, Eastern Midlands, Central-Southern England, South-Eastern England and East Anglia. Great. (West Midlands here...)

Georgia without Chik, no earthquake.

Georgia with Chik, earthquake.

I think DJ perfectly summed up my own reaction as well. Thank you, DJ.

[Fizzbit]

Same as above two posts

And I can put up with some heavy shit, yo. Like ED's Pain page

Oh thank Jesus I'm not the only one. Although it think it's unfair that everyone into men gets some "full backal nudity" and the woman's clothed. Wtf? If you're going to explot people and make them have sex with bugs, at least be EQUAL about it.

And the links to TVTropes make it much more epic, DJ.

[Paladin Anthony]

Yeah.... I'm definitely thinking if it were GA the state I'd have heard SOMETHING about it.

Then again... where I work the ground is always shaking... so maybe not. Stupid 1000 ton presses. >_>

I've gotta say. That's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. I may have just shit myself.

^___^ I'm glad that I'm so fantastic at making everybody go completely insane.


....that said, Vet implied it in his first post, so don't act like y'all weren't pretending to play innocent this whole time!

Yeah, if it were in the state, U.S. media would've been all over it. You wouldn't see anything else on television for 2-3 days!

1,000 ton presses? What kind of manufacturing does your employer do?

[Paladin Anthony]

School Busses. Big Yellow Cheesehounds.

[Nameless_Joe]

So you're partially responsible for the existence of those cursed traffic impediments!

[Chikara Nadir]

Yup, all that terrible rush hour traffic this evening in Atlanta? Totally my fault. To be fair, we were in the middle of the traffic, so helped add to it, but....

Yes, fear my evil ways. They...uh...bring earthquakes and hurricanes!

...and apparently inadvertently make people pour bleach in their own eyes.

[Twinrova]

.....Chik is the new Jaina?

I was actually referring to schoolbus construction....

[Egann]

No. It was the bloody Russian invasion being overwhelmed by 285 traffic.

[Ransom]

.....Chik is the new Jaina?

I approve of this transaction.

[Rhiannon]

*double shudders*

There should be a "all spider pictures must be in spolier format" rule.

&

a "Chik and Toan must never elaborate on their... uhm extracirricular activities" rule. (Heh, I loved DJ's picture reaction to this.. so perfect )
