If you are into sado-masochism, google "Ernie Els seven putt" and watch the video.

If you golf, do not do that search.

That was unreal. He even had the "laughing but wt eff is this sh*" face. I still can't believe that happened.

That is actually one of the most bizarre movies I've ever seen. And I agree, among the nuke scare movies it's a classic. They used to play it on the 4:30 movie on channel 5 in NYC in the 70s, and watching it at 8 or 9 years old was essentially an acid trip.

We watched the same TV stations.

Were you a fan of 8th Man?
 
Re: What the Fark 3: The Strange and Unusual

Local Channel 5 in the Twin Cities used to air the monster movie of the week 10:30 Saturday night which included the Black Lagoon types, the Blob, Mummy, Frankenstein, Werewolf, Frankenstein vs. Werewolf, Werewolf's Vampire Bride..., and I loved them all. The local CBS on Sunday morning would rotate Bowry Boys, Laurel and Hardy, Our Gang, Blondie and I think I've seen every Tarzan and Godzilla movie a dozen times from Sunday afternoons.

iirc there was one about moles (in the desert?) that would suck people into the sand from below that would probably make Brent blush.

They transitioned that to 45 after 5's ownership started that channel back in the 90s, but the Creature Feature might have ended completely sometime within the past ten years.

Not this sh-t again.

For those of you lucky enough to live in places where these guys don't literally come out of the ground like a million zombies, over night, it's unbelievably unpleasant. For one thing, they're incredibly ugly -- they look like they're from another planet; literally, they look like the Martian bug creatures from Quatermass and the Pit. For another, did I mention there are millions of them? The last time they came out to play they were stacked three deep on my yard. Read the article: one million per acre. That is not a typo. Even the turkey vultures, who are avian trash compactors with the wingspan of a Piper cub, are too freaked out to go near them.

They hang around for about three weeks, making more noise than Led Zep, then one night they all die. The next morning every single body is gone. I'll bet it's the owls. Our owls are mean mutha****as and you can only eat so many mice, squirrels, and small dogs before you need a change.

I hate these things. I think I'll just go away for a month.

We get mayfly swarms, which are also very annoying.

True story: was at a campground (not out in the sticks, it was one of those mobile trailer parks w/camping also). Walking on a path covered in wood chips. Except they weren't wood chips. :eek:

Around here we have rolling hills. They become waving hills. When the wind changes all the little pixels reverse. From a quarter mile it's gorgeous. From any closer it's a horror movie.

Cool periodic table. We are in brood V. That's nice, they have their own web site. Nice pics, too, if you want nightmares.

I think it was brood II that was active when we lived in MD. It was the **** buzzing that bothered me, not the bugs themselves.
