A bold seagull lands on the head of Jackie Cempura, of Springdale, Ark., to take a chip from Cempura's mouth while visiting the beach in Ormond Beach, Fla. on Tuesday, March 10, 2009.
(AP Photo/Daytona Beach News-Journal, Nigel Cook) A bastard squirrel did that to me once in a park in London. Ran up to me, jumped on my knee, grabbed the sandwich I was eating and ran away with it. Little fucker. If I'd had a camera with me.... I'd have smacked it round the head with it. |

It's a character from a book of the same name. From Amazon's only customer review of it: I liked this book so much, I stole it from the library. Had Edward Gorey written Lord of the Rings on psilocybin, Musrum might have been the twisted result. (disclaimer: I have never used psilocybin nor do I promote its use to others: reading Musrum made such pursuits unnecessary). In himself, Musrum is something like an enigmatic demigod, defined at different moments as "a spirited male Gypsy mouse" and "a room to dream in" (from the Anglo Saxon). With his sidekick/clone, Palfreyman, he sets out to rescue his beloved Mushroom Tree from the evil Weed King. The book not only recounts the resulting war, but also is a trove of bizarre lists, surreal line drawings, mixed metaphors, dangled participles, riddles, paradoxes, and fables such as these: "Knowing that both tigers and bottles of arsenic are killers, (Musrum) placed a tiger and a bottle of arsenic in his private arena and sat for three days waiting for them to fight it out." Whatever coherence this book lacks is compensated for by sheer inventiveness. Highly recommended for ages 14-adult. P.S. I'd like to buy a copy so I can return mine to the library; I've had it for 20 years and I'm sure they miss it by now. I'm not sure that helps very much. |

Your eyes are the sound of rain I have never seen someone actually fill 2 pages with nonsensical similes and metaphors before. Gads I'm glad I don't read a lot of this crap. |

I do promote the use of psilocybin. Responsibly, of course.

being interchangeable with 4Chan of course. Also are we actually doing 4chan threads in this? This board is already close enough at times. (Spoilered for bigness)

That seemed awfully cheery for the latest DC Happenings. Was that supposed to be some kids version of the Justice League? I mean Batman doesn't really laugh.

For the safety of the airplane. |

Ya I was thinking the same thing its not that super man needs to be belted in for his safety but in an accident I don't think you want the man of steel bouncing around in an enclosed environment. Whatever he hits is likely to break.

I'd think that having an accident in the first place would pretty much take care of destroying the plane. Maybe it's more like he's wearing the plane as a backpack...plane stops flying due to mechanical failure, and it's conveniently already strapped to Superman, who just starts flying. Passengers would never even notice.

He's Superman. Either he can simply stop his own momentum or he'll break the belt just as easily as destroying the plane.

I'm guessing that he wears the belt because he's super empathetic!  |

Jesus, I count at least 3 M2 .50's in that picture, 3 or 4 of what are either Maxim or Lewis WW1 machine guns, a couple of flamethrowers. In fact, it seems to be a collection of every infantry weapon (not including sidearms, maybe they're on the other wall) of the first half of the 20th century, including all their major variants. Which would mean that honking big rifle isn't a Barrett .50, it's the British anti-tank rifle that inspired it. Enough firepower to outfit a platoon. --Dave |
