#161Melting Ice Caps Expose Hundreds Of Secret Arctic Lairs
"We always assumed there would be some secret lairs here and there, but the sheer number now being exposed is indeed troubling," said noted climatologist Anders Lorenzen, who claimed that the Arctic ice caps have shrunk at the alarming rate of 41,000 square miles per year. "In August alone we discovered 44 mad scientist laboratories, three highly classified military compounds, and seven reanimated and very confused cavemen. That's more than twice the number we had found in the previous three decades combined."
"This is no longer conjecture," Lorenzen added. "This is a full-blown crisis."
According to a Natural Resources Defense Council survey, 78 percent of sinister one-eyed industrialists based in the Arctic have been forced to relocate their powerful underworld shadow governments, with many now secretly orchestrating world affairs from dormant volcanoes on remote islands.
For the time being, most researchers have shifted their attention away from the ice caps and toward finding a way to contain the giant reptile monster Bizarricus, who was trapped in an ice floe by Japanese scientists in the 1950s and has now returned to teach the world a lesson about the folly of man -

As a recovering Perl programmer and regex junkie that post made me cringe. -

Re: Humorous Links
#166So I'll occasionally re-discover this particular blog, which always makes me die laughing. Every entry has just the right level of, "Oh dear Azathoth" and snark, so that it's always an entertaining read.

This is a professional chemist, discussing the compounds that he flat refuses to work with. And why. Definitely a good read, even if you aren't a chemist (I know I'm not).
An excerpt:
This stuff was first prepared in Germany in 1932 by Ruff and Menzel, who must have been likely lads indeed, because it's not like people didn't respect fluorine back then. No, elemental fluorine has commanded respect since well before anyone managed to isolate it, a process that took a good fifty years to work out in the 1800s. (The list of people who were blown up or poisoned while trying to do so is impressive). And that's at room temperature. At seven hundred freaking degrees, fluorine starts to dissociate into monoatomic radicals, thereby losing its gentle and forgiving nature. But that's how you get it to react with oxygen to make a product that's worse in pretty much every way.

Re: Humorous Links
#168And this. Just this. I can't stop laughing, every time I look at it. I spent five minutes rolling on the floor gasping for breath.

I have no idea who this is
Hatsune Miku, of Vocaloid fame. She has one hell of a fandom, but if you aren't fairly heavily into anime-manga subculture, it's pretty easy to overlook Vocaloid.
That said, the image itself combined with the caption is what makes me laugh so much, not necessarily the fact that it's Miku. -
