Hi there. What can I do for you? AMA, I'm your friendly neighborhood scientist. :) ------------------------------------------------------- The plural of "anecdote" is NOT "reliable data." ------------------------------------------------------- About me: I'm a smartass. I'm a dumbass. I'm generally an ass. Don't take it personally. I'm some random internet stranger. I joke about everything. I usually ignore trolls (or out them), upvote anything commented on my posts (for 24/48 hrs, or @op) that isn't aggressive/violent/stupidly political, even if I disagree, and HAVE FUN ON THIS SITE. Kitties, humor, and the occasional OSHA fail gifs are why I'm here. But see above. Feel free to ask any science questions you wish. :) ********************* Ok, if this makes FP/MV, the poster will get a NOTHING* of their choice.

Hrm. Does he know anything about Updog?

Most commonly roundworms (t. leonia & t. cati), whose microscopic eggs are extremely hardy and difficult to kill. Check with your vet, but generally speaking a monthly prophylactic treatment is recommended, especially for cats that spend time outside. :)
#5 I've worn Levi's 501s/511s (they're the same, except the 511s have a zipper instead of a button fly) most of my life, and I've been perfectly fine with them. Also, I know next to nothing about fashion trends, so there's that. :)

Aww, she looks like my tortie SuSu Watari!
5 of her 6 ends are pointy!
A rare shot of her tummy. A long hair tortie on her favorite tortilla blanket. :)
A pic of SuSu on a background she doesn't blend into.
I came home exhausted, sat down, got my shoes and socks off, and then reached behind me to pat SuSu like normal...
And my hands touched a pile of Tshirts.
That was horror for me.
Ok, I get ya, but that's extremely subjective and dependent upon your set and setting.
E.g., my cat SuSu Watari died around a year ago. She was a mostly dark tortie, hence the name, and after she died I'd see her in every shadow. Because I'd spent her life NOT stepping in shadows because it could be her.
My horror was about six months after she died.
I had apparently dropped a couple of black T-shirts at the end of the bed before I left for the day. -->
Horror is different things to different people. I'm not bothered by liminal stuff, usually. But his reaction to it just pained me. MARK THE DOOR, DUMBASS!
But I guess that's the equivalent of "Don't go in there" and "No, don't split up!"
Or that one time:
Thanks! And like the cation, be +1. ;)
IDK, maybe you could expand upon your personal definitions. In general, if there's a vampire, ghost, or similar critter, it's going to fall under the "horror" umbrella in the movie Venn diagram.
I mean, there are exceptions.(I want to cite "Twilight", but I've never seen it...) So there's that.
Who is downvoting everything?
Oh, right. It's Imgur. In 2026, so mostly trolls and bots.
Meh.
Sinners has literal vampires.
That makes absolute sense. I can't dispute it. It's the Occam's razor answer.
But I may have had a bit of access that wasn't public, and I really don't know what it was or how long it lasted.
Some of my dev friends at work/company I needed knew some other devs at...etc.
Q&D, Oi, Yake, sign up for Imgur's beta, but tell me first if you see ANYTHING odd. Wait, you did? Can you break it? Can you replicate on the site? Can you break it there?
So... yeah.
Yeah, I got ya. I may not post a lot, but I've been around a bit. 😄
Oh, and environmental chem. I have multiple patents in use by the EPA, mostly in organics (as opposed to inorganics) and dealing with water/wastewater.
Ha! Science gag!
Yeah, I'll show myself out...
