You still get that in finland

That is an unimaginable long time, yet such a tiny fraction of how long life exists on earth...

It's okay, geometry makes me unhappy too.

That might be because in the 1930s, people were still catching tuberculosis from cow's milk. Sick cows can transmit the bacteria through non-pasteurized milk, so if the hospital had its own herd then they could make sure all the beasts were healthy and not infecting the patients.

In the prehistoric times, the customer service complaint was a wooden club...

And I want it so bad! That bag is gorgeous!

100 years later - armed insurrection.

I thought he said redcoats; though regulars make more sense, red was a popular color for coats

A tendency to decapitate the pilot. How many people had to die before they concluded it was a design/idea fault and not just bad luck on the part of the pilot?

Bob Picasso is a fine name for a dog.

Capuchin monkeys are also named after the monks.

I love these heart-shaped books.

In France they call it the "iron harvest". About 900 tons of unexploded ordnance is recovered every year.
