Ever heard of the whistle pig? Another name for the yellow-bellied marmot, these critters are CO’s largest type of ground squirrel, growing up to 26 in long & 11 lbs. Known for their sharp alarm calls & vocal range, if you’ve ever heard one you know where its nickname came from.

@The_Kyle_Mann In John Wick, there is a puppy. Sometimes people get puppies for Christmas. Therefore, John Wick is a Christmas movie. It’s the Free Association Theory of Christmasness.

@JohnHMcWhorter would the "critical mass" rule apply to changes in a noun's construction? For example, "data" is now widely used as singular, though it traditionally is the plural form of "datum."

@zoecabina Sometimes the most rational thing to do is just call ‘em as ya sees ‘em. It’s honestly hysterical when Sam swears 😂

This is the exact expression I would expect a fox to have upon learning that humans buy and sell fox urine.

You might know "Duff" as the beer on The Simpsons, but "Duff" is also decaying leaf litter on the forest floor.

Duff-eating decomposers like earthworms, millipedes, pill bugs & other invertebrates play a key role in putting nutrients into the soil & keeping forests healthy.

Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped, thinking he had completed the race.

A Spanish runner, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him and, realizing what was happening, started shouting at the Kenyan to continue running. Mutai didn't know Spanish and didn't understand. Realizing what was taking place, Fernandez pushed Mutai to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"

Ivan replied, "My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win."

The journalist insisted, "But why did you let the Kenyan win?"

Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win. The race was his."

The journalist insisted again, "But you could have won!"

Ivan looked at him and replied, "But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor in that medal? What would my mother think of that?"

@GuntherEagleman @BarackObama That’s like correcting someone at the zoo with “That’s not a bird; it’s a flamingo.”

@Joshstrangehill Kent Brockman: And in environmental news, scientists have announced that Springfield’s air is now only dangerous to children and the elderly.

@mysteriouskat Knowledge is understanding what’s happened; wisdom is recognizing when it’s happening again.
