This is anti-lano, but the lanoness is high because of, well, us!
The story of stuff is basically a 20 minute long video explaining where all your things come from and where they go after you are done with them. I watched the entire thing, and while I probably care more about these issues than your average person, the way she explains things is very easy to understand, and you don't really need any sort of knowledge beforehand. Actually if you do, you might feel a little bit belittled, but it's still worth a watch.
I was browsing some website, and there was a guy named Leoplurodon there, which reminded me of the word Liopleurodon, which again made me think.. frick, Liopleurodon is a fricking awesome word.
SRSLY!
So, here are some facts about Liopleurodons:
Liopleurodons, even if they lived during the end of the Jurassic Period 165-150 million years ago (Holy Shit!), were not as you might have thought dinosaurs (DUH!). They were the largest plesiosaurs (Which is basically a swimming reptile. Omg, so much cooler!) and rocked the ocean, killing their prey with their long sharp teeth!
Liopleurodon means "smooth-sided tooth;" and the name came from French paleontologist H.E.Sauvage in 1873. Haha, what a name, what a name. On the guy I mean, not the liopleurodon; that's a really awesome name and it feels great to pronounce it and read it and hear it and it just.. REEKS OF ANTI-LANONESS!
Personally I feel that the liopleurodon was misunderstood. Obviously a nice guy.
You can also see a magical liopleurodon in the youtube video "Charlie goes to Candy Mountain". Definitely worth the view. The magical liopleurodon is also very friendly and helpful in this movie; a step in the right direction when it comes to correcting whatever bad reputation the liopleurodons might have gotten up throughout the years.
This video features a dinosaur getting eaten by a liopleurodon, but I feel that the entire thing is misrepresentative and that well.. when you gotta eat you gotta eat. Cruel Sea? A little on the harsh side there, Spanish TV-Program!
“While the music industry is doing everything they possibly can to go out of business, can we all make sure to rid ourselves of the Grammys, too? Out of touch old men jacking each other off. ENOUGH!”
"Say goodbye to the RIAA, for its days are numbered. EMI, one of the "big four" record labels that feeds $132.3 million every year to trade groups such as the RIAA and IFPI, has decided that its money could be better spent elsewhere. It's reportedly considering cutting its funding towards the trade groups significantly, which would make it a lot harder for the RIAA to sue people, invade people's privacy and generally be huge dicks."
