Seriously, what the fuck is that thing :lol:

After extensive research I have concluded that it is in fact the end of the fastening strap for the beach umbrella I was sitting under.
 
Behold Tatey the Alien Spawn, found living at the rear of our pantry several days ago. We're thinking of taking him out on the road and making a million with him.

Man, those shoots on that spud do look creepy.

Some sort of Lovecraftian/non-Euclidean potato from the stars.
 
fearless wretch
insanity
it watches
lurking beneath the soil
great Old One
forbidden site
it searches
potatoe of the shadows is rising
immortal
in madness You dwell

Crawling Chaos, underground
farmers have harvested, twisted sound
 
Britain going to war with Argentina, against the wishes of the U.S.A. did more to spread democracy there. I know that might be an offensive thing to say but it's true.

You mean, Argentina going to war with Britain to distract the people from the Dirty War (the one US was helping with), even after they got a warning of not getting any support from the US (they had to support UK)? Oh, of course. That was the worse decision ever taken by the Junta, not only for the country but for the Junta itself.
That disaster meant the end of the Junta, the complete loss of the islands we were trying to get back, and the start of a terrible economic crisis (that the neoliberal policies made even worse).
So in a sense, yes, it helped to spread democracy (or to end up with the military dictatorships) :lol:

PS: It is not offensive at all. :)
