¥You sucked it out of a garden hose huh?"

I mean at this point, why even allow South Park to be streamed at all? The whole point of the show was deeply offensive tomfoolery and the social commentary.

In all these types of sci-fi, the underlying theme is that AI did some logics and found that humans are flawed and seeks to remedy the problems of humanity, all the war and greed and all the worst qualities of humanity itself that we evolved as and will always be, that repeats over and over in every generation or every hundred years. Machine logic works out a solution, despite humanity's overall progress in technology.

The Animatrix shows a really nice example of this where the machines won and then worked out a compromise where humans still exist. The machines learned all our cruelty and finally ended up finding a way to co-exist through the Matrix.

Kat and Kropp get in an argument over the war as they rest from an hour’s worth of drill (occasioned by Tjaden’s not saluting a major properly). Kat believes the war would be over if leaders gave all the participants “the same grub and the same pay,” as he says in a rhyme. Kropp believes the leaders of each country should fight each other in an arena to settle the war; the “wrong” people currently do the fighting.

Nidek uses the hot air balloon. Topcon uses the house on the prairie.

I am not sure if it's exclusive to either brand though. Both are Japanese manufacturers.

That's an autorefractor machine and it's not exactly accurate (they over-correct a lot), nor is it legal or ethical to prescribe a medical ophthalmic device with it alone. You need subjective refraction done by an eye doctor so you can get the best lenses that you need. Also you could possibly need prisms for any tropia.

 

And as a note, Trinidad currently has all female leaders in the highest posts of President, Prime Minister and Opposition Leader due to this election results and internal party consequences. https://web.archive.org/web/20250501142112/https://trinidadexpress.com/news/local/cheers-as-penny-makes-history/article_ebe9ee80-0740-4575-b47f-f890c966a5ca.html

This is a sure sign of social progress, and a sign of a healthy democracy by the citizens once again choosing a change of governance at the polls.

Omg is this the joke? Chalk in milk? So it took me 30 years to actually understand this Simpsons joke?

The golden years writers were so genius.

This was an entire episode of Castle (the guy from Firefly) except it was a Pizza shop.

There's only two things I hate in this world: people who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.
