Star fortresses only became common after the invention of cannon artillery. That's exceedingly modern for this type of nonsense.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 47 pts · 2y (4 replies)

These types are obsessed with star fortresses for reasons I can't begin to comprehend, but they all think they're ancient.

RustyNova@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 2y (1 reply)

They do look cool tho

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 2y

Oh yeah, they're very cool. But the real story of them is interesting enough, so making up a new story is stupid.

Granite@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 2y

They feel ancient for those born yesterday…

grue@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 2y

for reasons I can’t begin to comprehend

Maybe 'cause they're star-shaped?

i love 'melon glands'... feels like great slang for 'breasts'

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I'm feeling really melon collie about this.

I wonder how many people will get the reference-

Tippon@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 18 pts · 2y (9 replies)

I can't tell if that's Jeff Goldblum or Rick Moranis, and it's pickling my brain 🤯

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Eddie Deezen actually.

Probably most famous for his minor role in Wargames.

niktemadur@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Looks like Liev Schreiber's weird nerdy uncle, to my untrained eyes.

rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Although nowadays he's getting better known for being a creep in real life.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y

I think something snapped in him. He's had multiple charges against him for multiple incidents and he sounds like he's seriously mentally ill. The fact that he's a Scientologist doesn't help.

Yeah, I loved Eddie Deezen back then, but he probably belongs in some sort of long-term psychiatric care.

Tippon@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I never would have said that it was him 😱

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

It's just the angle. It's clear in other scenes.

But those scenes don't involve "the two giant melons."

bofa Deez^en^ guesses are good but not quite right.

I don't care about the guy. Who's the chick with the big knockers?

That's the only reason anyone's in the comment section.

grue@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Speak for yourself. I was here for the "Acktyually star forts are pretty modern" comment, which I would've posted if that guy hadn't.

the fuck is a melon gland

RedditRefugee69@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y

I think they’re what powers flux capacitors

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y (1 reply)

The only thing that I can think that they are possibly talking about is this...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melon_(cetacean)

Which, I guess, means we used to be sperm whales?

TheFriar@lemm.ee · 6 pts · 2y

Or maybe these missing human alien species used to secrete melons

Cowbob12@lemmy.world · 28 pts · 2y (3 replies)

So they're finally going for the buildings made by Europeans calling them impossible and made by aliens, we've gone full circle now.

Magnetar@feddit.de · 14 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Especially since star forts are such a recent development. They are not some mysterious ancient ruins, we literally still have the blueprints from the people planning them.

DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

And the evolution of those blueprints! With commentary!

dogsoahC@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 2y

Oof, evolution. That word alone makes it hard to grasp for these nutjobs.

Ouch, my melon glands!

Magnetar@feddit.de · 1 pts · 2y

How will I gland melons now?

Bluefalcon@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 2y

Man, I miss my melon gland.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

You really need a good melon gland baller to get the best of the gland.

Yeah… that sums it up pretty well.

There was some culture about elongating children' heads in south America. What was it again?

Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 2y

It's a practice that's potentially older than our species and nearly as wide-ranging. I think there were several Mesoamerican cultures that performed it. Such things were occasionally practiced in western Europe as late as the early 1900s.

Cosmicomical@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y

Did you know? Skyscrapers were built by atlantideans, those impossible structures of steel and glass don't follow the laws of physics.

callyral@pawb.social · 8 pts · 2y (2 replies)

why would this be covered up if it was true

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y (1 reply)

It's always a coverup with these people.
