Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Tasmanian Devils are cool. But you wouldn't want to pat them. Why?

"Any research or read on animals with a powerful bite force is incomplete without the mention of the devil who roams in the woods of Tasmania - the Tasmanian Devil. This small, stout, strong carnivore marsupial is capable of chomping down its prey with a bite force quotient (BFQ) of 181.

The bite force of all the animals mentioned above were calculated in PSI. PSI denotes a pressure that results when an area of 1 square inch is subjected to a pressure of 1 pound force. Bite force quotient, however, is derived by dividing the bite force of the animal by its body mass. Through a series of tests and studies, scientists have concluded that the Tasmanian Devil is the mammal with the strongest bite force quotient on earth. In layman language, the creature generates the highest bite force for its size - it weighs no more than 26 lbs.

Speaking of pythons and snakes, I'm not sure if this story is true or not but it is terrifying. A friend of a friend of a friend of my mother's bought a pet python (not the same kind seen in the pictures as I think that's illegal but a python nonetheless) but would sometimes wake up to see the python staring at her. Curious to see what this was about she took the python to the vet and told him what the problem was. The vet told her to get rid of the python, stating that the python  was "measuring her up" so it could eat her.

Just get a dog next time. :aff:

Spiders.  :zombiefuck:

Don't like spiders.

The snakes would be cool to watch, the Tasmanian Devil is neat, I even like the ugly bird that kicks.

Spiders...hell no.

If I see a spider in my room I can't sleep soundly until I kill it...Then again that might be a mistake:
