It's gonna be hard. I have to sand down the old bad clear and respray it. Once the base has been touched, it has to be re sprayed.

So sadly, u have to repaint the roof. That's the proper way of doing it

Few days old now, but just heard about it

So a comic book artist, Rafael Albuquerque, was tasked with drawing a variant cover (limited) for the Batgirl comic, supposedly he came out with an initial cover but was told by the powers that be @ DC to make it more 'extreme'

Anyway he drew this cover with the Joker and Batgirl, an homage to one of the most controversial but popular Batman/Batgirl storylines called 'the killing joke' (ca. 1988)

The Killing Joke is a storyline where The Joker shoots Batgirl in the spine (crippling her), strips her, and then sends pics of it to her father (Commissioner Gordon)

Here's the homage cover, keep in mind the Batman comic-verse is currently fighting The Joker so it isn't just an homage but relevant



Feminists and White Knights on twitter and the blogosphere went in an uproar saying the cover depicts violence against women and that the gun resting on Batgirls shoulder is pointed at her pussy indicating that The Joker is going to rape her...

The uproar was so huge that the variant cover got pulled by request of the artist

Here's one of the many angry articles about it http://www.nerdythingsthatdontsuck.c...jokercover.jpg

[Sid Vicious]

it was heavily implied in the killing joke that the joker also raped her

[underscore]

People were angry about the cover because it didn't fit with the current style of the comic nor the story in that book. That's what got it pulled at the request of the artist, not this SJW bullshit.

Doing my taxes, can't grasp the concept of carryover amounts.

All I know is that it says I have 1.00 for both federal/provincial amounts for available carryover on the CRA website. That seems really low?

It doesn't seem to have affected my return amount.

Question for you guys.

I have a cadbury chocolate bar still in its packaging, unopened, expired a few weeks ago.
It was stored in the fridge for about a year.

Long story short, I got it from a customer at work, and it was melting cuz it was summer, so I put it in the work fridge and forgot about it until someone brought it to my attention.

I've had expired chocolate - no problems there, but I know you shouldn't put chocolate in the fridge.

Is this still edible? Thanks

means you have nothing left. this could be one of two reasons:
1). they were all used up in previous tax years
2). your education credits were never recorded in the years they occurred

Also, i'd suggest digging up the tax thread from last year or starting a new one for this year.

so people wouldn't be bitching if they made it an alternate cover for Batgirl Endgame? (the cover used there is by the same artist btw)




Also, all dc comics are getting a variant Joker cover because it's the characters 75th anniversary, even Wonder Woman is getting a variant with The Joker

[underscore]

No clue, I'm not the ones that's mad. But the pulled cover is a lot darker than the other two. I don't know a lot about the various series' but the pulled cover is supposedly more of a kids friendly one as well.

?If You Touch This Plant It Will Make You Vomit In Pure Agony

Spoiler!

The Gympie Gympie is an Australian plant with spindly stems and heart-shaped light green leaves. Brushing your hand against it can make you throw up from the pain. Using it as toilet paper has made people shoot themselves. This plant will ruin you.

The Gympie Gympie: Endangered or Endangering?

The Gympie Gympie has broad, flat leaves that rise on a series of surprisingly delicate stems. It can grow to be only a few feet tall. Botanists believe that its fast growth rate and wide leaves make it ideal for the small, sunlit gaps in the otherwise thick canopy of a forest. Its habitat is limited to a few patches of lowland rainforest around Queensland in Australia. Rainforests are shrinking, the climate is changing, and the Gympie has recently become an endangered plant.

Many would say that endangering the Gympie Gympie is a job well begun. This innocuous-looking greenery is one of the most feared plants in the world. Its sting is so agonizing that a slight brush to the hand from one of the leaves can make a person throw up from the pain.

Not that the leaves are the only dangerous part. Only the roots of the Gympie are free of the fine hairs that lodge in the skin and deliver the sting. Every subsequent moment of pressure on the hairs causes them to put out more poison into the skin. The pain feels like fire, and it lasts. As long as the hairs are embedded in the skin, the pain keeps coming. Stings from the Gympie cause the lymphatic system to go into overdrive. A person's throat, armpits, and groin swell up and ladle on the pain as the lymph nodes expand.

Just being around the Gympie hurts. It sheds its hairs continuously. Scientists believe that the stinging hairs keep the ground clear so it can take advantage of those sunny gaps in the canopy. Botanists working in the field go into sneezing fits and get nose bleeds from standing near the plant. Botanists who handle hundred-year-old specimens of Gympie still get stung.

Tales of the Killer Plant

Through the years, a few people have had extensive encounters with the plant. One man, who fell into a bush during World War II, was strapped to a hospital gurney, screaming, for three weeks. Another got hit in the chest in the late 1990s. For two years, his chest hurt every time he took a cold shower.

There are plenty of horror stories, one of which is more horrible than the rest, despite no one getting hurt. As the Gympie's fame spread, the military became interested in the tree. In the late 1960s, the British Army had people send them samples of the stinging tree for use as a chemical weapon. Nothing has been heard since then. (We assume everyone who was even casually involved with the project died and they had to dynamite the facility.)

The Gympie Gympie's Future

No one wants this plant in their back yard, along their hiking trail, or, ideally, on their planet. This might account for why the Gympie Gympie is vanishing. Another reason, astonishingly, might be food. The plant produces edible fruit, though the fruit has been called both "warty" and "bland." That's a sad reward for nerves of steel, which is what it takes to eat the purplish berries. First, the harvester has to dress up in a full coverall suit, including a plastic face-mask because the plant can irritate the eyes (one person compared it to having acid poured on his eyes). The harvester will then knock the fruit off the tree with a stick. The fruit has to be denuded of needles by being rubbed in layers and layers of cloth, which presumably can never be used again. Then comes the nasty part. Because the needles are so fine, they can't all be seen, so "A final rubbing with bare hands will detect any stinging hairs left before eating." Hurrah.

Those who run into the Gympie in the wild generally get treated with pain killers, but the stingers are both too fine and too numerous to be picked out by hand – particularly by someone screaming in pain. To get the needles out, people put the sticky parts of bandages, or home waxing strips, on their stings, and yank out the stingers the way they would real hairs.

Perhaps the Gympie Gympie knows how close it is to being wiped out. In 2014, two different trees have been found with all the parts seemingly intact, but with no toxin in the silica hairs on the leaves. Although no one is entirely sure what causes the overwhelming sting, scientists believe that it's a peptide called moroidin. Remove that one component, and the plant's ability to cause pain is gone. Exactly why the plant would lay down its arms is unknown, but perhaps one day it will only be an agonizing legend.

Australia

it's also found in Indonesia and all those islands of SE asia
from wiki

Contact with the leaves or twigs causes the hollow, silica-tipped hairs to penetrate the skin. The sting causes an extremely painful stinging sensation which can last for days, weeks, or months, and the injured area becomes covered with small, red spots joining together to form a red, swollen mass. The sting is potent enough to kill humans, dogs, and horses[6], and is infamously agonizing. Stories tell of horses jumping off cliffs after being stung, and supposedly one Australian officer shot himself to escape the pain of a sting.[8] One man who was slapped in the face and torso with the foliage said, "For two or three days the pain was almost unbearable; I couldn’t work or sleep, then it was pretty bad pain for another fortnight or so. The stinging persisted for two years and recurred every time I had a cold shower. ... There's nothing to rival it; it's ten times worse than anything else."[8]

However, the sting does not stop several small marsupial species, including the red-legged pademelon, insects and birds from eating the leaves.

It was only a matter of time.

I never took advantage of it, so it's no biggie for me.
