Story scores

You must think your stories are being evaluated by Lionel fucking Trilling or something.

I once calculated the size of the bag needed to carry all the cash and tickets needed to play in all possible lottary combinations (during a math class; I was bored) :D


Lou, I love you. :D :heart:

Actually I don't really care. At least, not enough to do any math. But if someone is going to do it FOR me... hey, what the fuck?

Hey Lauren: how big was the bag?:D

I love you, too, you freak. :heart:
 
Carson,

When did you check your totals? I voted you a five last night, but can't remember when.

Doc, you are weird. So how many farts would it take?

It was last night, must've been after yours... for a brief shining moment I was #1 on the GM top list :rolleyes: but now I've slipped back to #10... sigh.

How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a... oh fuck it.
 
I almost didn't look at this thread but I'm waiting for my tea to brew. Gotta say Mab.'s post was one of the best ever. If there were a contest for posts I'd nominate it.

Perdita :)

The normal adult human farts about 14 times a day and emits between half a liter and a liter of gas at standard temperature and pressure.

At that rate, it would take you 6,137,000 years to emit enough gas to equal one kiloton of energy.

Merry Christmas.

Monday's are red beans and rice day in south Louisiana (Friday's are for gumbo). Ingested along with an appropriate amount of Dixie beer, and 14 should be a snap.

Well I walked in on a tasteful thread didn't I?

LOL

:p

There was actually an email circulating about how many farts it would take. Some people have too much free time on their hands lol

Only 14?

Jeez!

I must eat the wrong stuff.

Naw... they're 4-month-old cuties!

Just 'cos they still shit in the house ain't no reason to bad-mouth them! (They do it more often where they should - and ask to go out...)

PS And the other one (see av) doesn't do that, much! :rolleyes:

My 1 1/2 year old german shepherd still pees in the house and she pees like a horse... she can't help it though, really, we found her on the side of the road last fall and she doesn't have good house manners yet. But at least she's grateful for the food and the warm house to live in.

Rewarding 'good' behaviour - and providing opportunities for same - are, IMO, the real secret of bringing up both kids and dogs.

As for the rest, you just have to love them more.

Actually (again IMO), the same goes for everyone you love!

Other interesting bits:

Vegetarians fart more than meat-eaters. It's the complex carbohydrates that do it. Broccoli and cruciferous vegetables are as bad as beans.

Astronauts going into space were fed on steak and eggs and no bread: high protein/low carbos means fewer farts, which the early space suits couldn't handle. (Newer models have activated charcoal cannisters that absorb odorous components.)

People on low-carbohydrate diets fart much less than carbo-eaters. (A fact I can attest to.)

In addition to methane (which is what makes a lit fart burn blue), flatus contains CO2, swallowed air (mostly nitrogen), and traces of hydrogen and sulfur compounds.

All this I learned from a fascinating little book called Merde, written by an entomologist but all about excreta and the wonders of defecation in the animal world.

Makes a great Xmas gift.
