Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

Friday nights are "Forged in Fire." Multiround blade-making competition. Now I know they used a lot of pig carcasses on "Mythbusters," but I gotta say I'm a little surprised they get to chop up as many carcasses on this show as they do without being shut down by animal rights groups. They also murder a lot of ballistics dummies. In early episodes they were filled with blue liquid but as the show went on they decided blood-red was OK for television and the judges often get at least a little "blood" on them. That said...

While I have no desire to see it in an ongoing manner, part of me is curious how the weapon tests would look on an actual living target. Because when they chop into a dead hog or a salmon it is largely a neat and tidy thing and when they chop into a ballistics dummy there is some splashing but nothing like in a pressurized system where there's a heart pumping the liquid through vessels. And the "blood" is quite watery anyway. Again, not something I'm clamoring to see ongoing, I just want to see how much "OH MY FUCK!" different it would be for something realistic. Eh. I guess I could just go watch "American Psycho."
 
Watching DS9 s1.whatever the one Vedek Winn was introduced I think. I get that Louise Fletcher was golden in that role, but seeing it again reminded me that SHE always reminded me of the knuckle smacking ruler nun from The Blues Brothers.
 
I have lost weight, despite doing no exercise and eating the worst foods. Maybe four hours of call of duty a day can burn calories?
 
I wanna be, like, a mashup of Morgan Spurlock and Josef Mengele. I want to see if a human can survive on nothing but Jell-O (and maybe whipped cream because you know, you kind of need whipped cream on top of Jell-O). As much as the subjects want, any flavor; what that does to the human body. I'm sure there are other dietary experiments. That's the only reason I need someone to experiment on instead of myself: it would just take me too long to return to a baseline after each diet experiment. I need test subjects.

Bacon and black coffee. I feel like maybe that could be the origin of a Marvel superhero from the '60s if someone lived on nothing but bacon and black coffee.
 
Bacon yes. Black coffee no. I need my half and half and Splenda. I don't care if my friends call it a dessert.

In Minnesota, that's just called being a Lutheran. (To hear Garrison Keillor describe it, anyway)

Not trying to worry you but that's one of the sypmtoms that always comes up when I Google to see if I have cancer.
 
First thing I thought of but I had a blood test yesterday and I have another one in a few weeks so hopefully they'll catch it soon if I do have it.

I get more and more paranoid about it as I get towards my brother's age, aka, later this year.

Got my fingers crossed for you homeslice.
 
I fractured 4 bones in the top of my foot yesterday and the Dr is saying no putting weight on it for weeks (like a month plus). I will go insane if I’m on crutches or whatever for that length of time. This is not okay. They need to put me into a coma and wake me up when it’s over. I can not be still like that. Freaking ADHD torture.
The ER nurse asked me if I had any suicidal thoughts when she was checking me in and I hesitated thinking “only if u tell me something’s really messed up”. Well, there ya’ go. Boohoo. But people have it so much worse (I know this).
