Blame the use of Mercator maps in American schools. This guy gets it except that map projections don't change the coordinates of landmasses relative to one another. |

One day back in 1977 I vaguely remember waking up and my cum sock was removed from under my pillow. About 11 years later I found it behind the water heater. Who the fuck would take my cum sock and thrown behind the water heater?

My son has traveled to Japan a few times. One odd thing I notice is that if you zoom in on google maps, ( Map view) on Tokyo you see many symbols in Japanese characters but also a lot of little swastikas. (??) Must be a Japanese symbol of some sort.

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's a well known result of all those Australian toilets swirling in the wrong direction. Because of Newton's fourth law of motion, something had to counterbalance the Cornwallis effect. What a load of shite. Anyone can see that Archimedes found a lever 87 thousand miles long and moved the Nips towards the tips. |
