Texas geek whose nerdery includes but isn't limited to Star Trek, Batman, Doctor Who, Star Wars, and 50s schlock. I'm also a big fan of Bettie Page, Elvis, old Hollywood glamor, and most retro. I'm easily distracted by bright shiny things. Or boobs. Or bright shiny boobs.

Sure, cookie cutter sharks are only 50 cm (19 inch), but you don’t wanna mess with these guys. Cookie cutter sharks get their name from the holes they leave when biting into the the flesh of various marine mammals and fish (there have been reported attacks on humans as well). They do this by latching on with their sharp, saw-like teeth and spinning around 360 degrees until they get a nice chunk of flesh. Yum.
Considering they live in the deeper seas, about 3.7 km (2.3 mi) beneath the surface, they are bioluminescent. Their whole underside glows to mimic the sunlight from the surface, this camouflages their silhouette from certain predators that lurk below them. At night, they migrate up closer to the surface to hunt for their food with those scary, scary, set of teeth.

Liberty Ross, The Woman Rupert Sanders cheated on with Kristen Stewart
Wait wait wait. So I get this clear. This Rupert Sanders guy cheated on this chick for Kristen Stewart?!?
No way. Does she eat babies or doesn’t have a vagina or something?
Dial-Up sound 700% slower
what the fuck.
If I ever end up in the film industry I’m going to put this in a horror movie and it will affect people on such a deep psychological level that they’ll be terrified of getting on the computer for weeks without knowing why.
This is hauntingly, horrifyingly, horribly beautiful, and literally physically affected my ability to breathe. Holy. Fucking. Shit.
This would make great atmospheric ambiance for a horror game
I’ve been listening to survival horror soundtracks all day and really, there is little difference
sCREEChES
THIS SOUND HAS ALWAYS FREAKED ME OUT
NOW I KNOW WHYfUck
Now I understand why the dial tone always freaked me out
Whoa.

Redditors Get A Lesson In Tolerance of the Day: Redditor european_douchebag recently posted this pic of a Sikh woman with the caption: “i’m not sure what to conclude from this.”
Redditors promptly piled on to criticize her facial hair, which she is bound by her religion not to cut or alter in any way.
Then the woman caught wind of the post and responded:
Hey, guys. This is Balpreet Kaur, the girl from the picture. … I’m not embarrased or even humiliated by the attention [negative and positve] that this picture is getting because, it’s who I am.
Yes, I’m a baptized Sikh woman with facial hair. Yes, I realize that my gender is often confused and I look different than most women.
However, baptized Sikhs believe in the sacredness of this body - it is a gift that has been given to us by the Divine Being [which is genderless, actually] and, must keep it intact as a submission to the divine will. Just as a child doesn’t reject the gift of his/her parents, Sikhs do not reject the body that has been given to us. …
My attitude and thoughts and actions have more value in them than my body because I recognize that this body is just going to become ash in the end, so why fuss about it?
When I die, no one is going to remember what I looked like, heck, my kids will forget my voice, and slowly, all physical memory will fade away. However, my impact and legacy will remain: and, by not focusing on the physical beauty, I have time to cultivate those inner virtues and hopefully, focus my life on creating change and progress for this world in any way I can. …
I appreciate all of the comments here, both positive and less positive because I’ve gotten a better understanding of myself and others from this.”Then, miracle of miracles, european_douchebag apologized:
I know that this post ISN’T a funny post but I felt the need to apologize to the Sikhs, Balpreet, and anyone else I offended when I posted that picture. Put simply it was stupid. Making fun of people is funny to some but incredibly degrading to the people you’re making fun of. It was an incredibly rude, judgmental, and ignorant thing to post. …
I’ve read more about the Sikh faith and it was actually really interesting. It makes a whole lot of sense to work on having a legacy and not worrying about what you look like. I made that post for stupid internet points and I was ignorant.
So reddit I’m sorry for being an a**hole and for giving you negative publicity. Balpreet, I’m sorry for being a closed minded individual. You are a much better person than I am Sikhs, I’m sorry for insulting your culture and way of life. Balpreet’s faith in what she believes is astounding.Just… wow.
Internet, you have impressed me. Well done.
