@Owls_Everywhere@RANK10YGO Oh, yeah, monster levels in the early manga can be pretty darn random. At least part of the reason why Yugi and Jounouchi made new decks for Battle City is that nobody wants to be rocking a level 6 Celtic Guardian.
@N0CjO4eoHFjJCzh In retrospect, the writers should have realized there was a problem with Neo-Spacians when he had to pull out all four of these in one duel.
@HollyDaSilly@DeadBySalt Walruses are aquatic predators that live in some of the coldest places on Earth. They need a wide range of vision and defenses against cold. Hence, they can pop their eyes out to widen their field of view, and their eyeballs are filled with blood vessels to keep them warm.
@Sar_Gasmic@Q_Review Incidentally, the few crewmembers who were still keeping the lights on at that point hated this. Every year, more characters would get declared off-limits, and the characters created to replace them were mostly godawful.
@Sar_Gasmic@Q_Review Funnily, Bugs Bunny WAS retired as a character in the early 60s. The executives realized that theatrical shorts were a dying medium and only kept making them for TV. There were already enough Bugs cartoons to run in syndication in perpetuity, so he was declared off-limits.
@FlappyPappy911@BBCNews The Ig Nobel Prize is essentially a joke award given out to strange scientific discoveries or projects. In this case, someone was studying how alligator vocalizations work, and part of the study involved sticking one in an airtight chamber and mixing helium in the air.
@ChrisDVernon @JoshuaPotash In fairness, ancient Greece wasn't a whole lot better about it. Athens at its height was holding half the Mediterranean at gunpoint and thought women shouldn't leave the house.
@MMonocromatic@pk_kenzie I suspect it's because people kept comparing him to Robert Kennedy III, who recently had a well-publicized and rather disastrous campaign.
@Ultracrepa@theoneronin1@thelindsayellis Basically, the issue is that she's treating it like a rare thing, when it's really just "we don't think this case is going to yield anything more helpful" - which was less because she crushed it and more because the other side missed a bunch of deadlines and went bankrupt.
