For extra laughs, read the match day thread on Bomberblitz. The attitudes there went in the opposite direction as ours. :D

I had 2 Essendon supporters sitting right behind me in the Ponsford. I lived it. :P
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

OK, so my sense of humor is a little different.

This I liked.
Two-Undecillion-Dollar Demand Spells Trouble for Au Bon Pain
Looks like we have a new record for Largest Known Demand:

Anton Purisima v. Au Bon Pain Store, Carepoint Health, Hoboken University Medical Center, Kmart Store 7749, St. Luke's Emergency Dept., New York City Transit Authority, City of New York, NYC MTA, LaGuardia Airport Administration, Amy Caggiula, Does 1-1000, Case No. 1:14 CV 2755 (S.D.N.Y. filed 4/11/2014).

Civil rights violations, personal injury, discrimination on national origin, retaliation, harassment, fraud, attempted murder, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and conspiracy to defraud. $2,000 decillion ($2,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).

Someone has lodged a lawsuit for 2 Undecillion dollars. Thats a 2 with 36 zeros. Good luck with that mate. Read the article at the link for some other dodgy attempts at getting really rich by suing.

For a different take on it, exactly how much is 2 undecillion dollars apart from quite a bit? When it turns out that "A Shitpile" doesn't quite cover it and, in case you're wondering, Gina isn't in the same solar system let alone ball park.

So here is a laymans guide to exactly how much money that is.

https://what-if.xkcd.com/96/

(I didn't realise a human life was valued at $8.7 million. Considering that an 80kg human is about 110,000 calories if ingested, that's $79 per calorie. A Chicken Schnitzel roll costs around $7 at a foodcourt and has 974 calories. That's $0.71 per calorie. That makes Cannibals some serious gourmet MOFO's.)

What's the difference between God and Bono?


God doesn't wander around Dublin thinking he's Bono.


But I still love Bono :oops:


Even though he is really really really short!
