But vat-growing tissues or organs and not cloning whole organisms is a lot less ethically tricky.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.

They say the butter's not so cheep in Norway (in Norway)
They say it's really expensive over there
But when cows give nothing to churn
And all those cookies you do yearn
Don't try to sneak it in from good old Russia.
Butter is $465 a pound (or 500 grams to be more precise which is more like 1.1 lbs)

That's only the "online retailer" price set by hoarders. Butter is simply sold out in stores for everyone else.RobbyPants wrote:Still $48.64 a pound is still a lot!
Basically, it's like trying to price anything by using eBay.... the fact that some idiots will pay grossly inflated prices on rare things is not the same as real economic news of a price indicator.
Apparently there is also a new high-fat diet craze going on in Norway right now and that has increased demand for butter.

It's Winter over there, and Norway is a frozen wasteland at the best of times. I bet they want to pack the extra kilos on, they might survive stepping outside that way.K wrote:Apparently there is also a new high-fat diet craze going on in Norway right now and that has increased demand for butter.

You know, one of the questions that I will never get answered in my lifetime is the nagging thought, "Would Fur Fighters have made a great MMOG?" It is what happens when you work, even briefly for the fail of a video game company called Acclaim, but hey's it was fun while it lasted.

I suspect this will turn out to be a UFO hoax but until then it's a neat mystery.
"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

Disney is doing Mort, from Discworld. Not my favourite, but the fact that they're doing it at all, makes me ecstatic.
...even if I worry that Death will be afflicted with Dark is Evil syndrome...

I remember my ex's family last year on the day before Christmas Eve. Her stepfather was a devout Christian, who shot at his wife's head while holding a pillow over her head (while the children slept), then walked out the back door and shot himself in the head.

it's not an honor killing.
The police even came out and said they don't think it's an honor killing.
And given his actions? It seems much more like fucked up psychotic break killing, than anything else.
Dude just got Divorced, he put cameras in his house, recording everything, he's been acting weird and Paranoid.
You're just making shit up now Tzor, because it fits your narrative.
