Wow!  I'm sure her teeth were amazingly British.

Fluoride strengthens teeth though?

Yes. Amazingly strong, but also British. Stained perfectly brown, perfectly disorganized and tangled.

It also causes fluorosis, where fluoride deposits build up on the tooth surface.

noscript is honestly my primary adblock tool.

It's very effective, if you block out the major offenders (google, facebook, twitter, etc.).

If you're using teabags at all you should stop drinking tea altogether. You are unworthy of it.

Why placing your testicles in the mouth of your lover disquialify you from drinking tea. Do every british guy avoid doing it so they can keep drinking tea? Im confused.

This could somehow explain better the whole thing in Boston?

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Well, some crotchety old men in Boston got tired of drinking British bathwater and then being asked to pay for the privilege of doing so.  So they set a precedent that resulted in the gradual dismantling of the entire British Empire, save a few fallow kingdoms without the willpower to reestablish their own monarchy.

Also, they have a couple of really cool islands in the South American area, where they occasionally have to go and sink a boat or two to remind the local savages who owns what.

I can't see the American war of independence as being the primary trigger for that. Things kicked on pretty well for 150 years after that until WWII then Britain lost almost all their empire within 5-10 years of that.

So, I'm preparing to run a D&D game that takes place on a medieval Titanic. As I was drawing the floorplan of the ships many levels, I was trying to think of facilities to fill it with. I gave it a Casino, Upper and lower class quarters, crew quarters, a tav- a mess hall obviously, cannonball storage, etc.

Drawing this floor plan forced me to ask a lot of questions, and one of the questions I decided to ask was "How did sailors dispose of waste?"

I probably should have noticed the inherent danger in researching the answer to a question like that, but I decided to google it anyway.

I found my answer.




If anything deserves to be in the WTF thread, it's this. If you're confused by how such an innocent looking structure can be used for such nefarious purposes, here's another picture.


For me, this was the equivalent of finding out what mom's neck massager was actually for. Complete mindfuck. My innocence was shattered as if I was still in grade school and now I don't know what to think! On my D&D boat, that place was a garden. A mother****ing garden with plants growing in it and everything! Yet to learn that people did such filthy *things* in there, it makes me feel like a fool.

I'm laughing about it and hamming it up now, but for a few minutes, I was deeply disturbed.

Well, no. The poop deck is actually at the opposite end of the ship; it's the roof of the cabin placed at the stern(rear) of the ship, situated behind the quarterdeck where the helmsman works. What's depicted is the beakhead, which is the spot where the sailors operating the spritsails stand... and also where everyone shits. It all goes straight down into the sea, and if any hits the bow of the ship, the sea waves clean it off.

It always seemed like it'd be better to do it at the other end, though.

But that wouldn't get washed off by the surf as efficiently. And you wouldn't get that naturally cleansing foaming action, like a bidet.
