Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

I hadn't realized they'd offered it to Robin Curtis. The gossip on the Internet had always been that they were underwhelmed by her, which was why she had such a small part in VI. Interesting. Curtis should've taken it. It was a great part.
 
They got Curtis back for a two partner in TNG she can't have been that bad.

Star wars also works better if you assume what you think of as the vacuume of space still has a thin level of air in it.

That way sounds, banking, animals living in space all make more sense.
 
Mulling your "lost in time with modern technology" stories the other day and thinking about what you could do at, say, the Battle of Agincourt with an AR-15 and realizing you're pretty much limited by the amount of ammo you're carrying before your AR-15 becomes a fancy club. So then I'm thinking "that isn't completely true, you've still got a modern steel barrel and breech," but even that's of limited use. What do you do, turn it into a matchlock? Then I realized you still have the spent brass, so could, conceivably, reload them with black powder. Although then you still lack a means of ignition. But what about Civil War times? By the 1820s, we'd developed flintlocks with percussion caps. Could you fit a percussion cap into the primer hole in shell brass? I wonder. I wish Mythbusters was still on.
 
"Hi, I'm Bob!"
"Oh..." <sympathetic> "I'm so sorry. That must be tough."
<confused> "Huh?"
"Well, that's life for you. We all have to be somebody. And you had the rotten luck to end up being... Bob."
