JoeyJoJo 18 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 If this happened to me: JJJ: "Excuse me." Woman: "Oh, sorry."JJJ: "It's ok." JJJ: [Puts fills his coffee cup 1/6 full with ice from dispenser]JJJ: [starts pouring coffee]Woman: "You're supposed to put the ice in last."JJJ: [half laugh, avoids further eye contact][/scene]I guess it's why I can't write good dialogue.

Shimmering Wang 1 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Human annihilation.Exactly. I mean, elephants are already pretty big, so take that and then double it. Do people have any idea how huge they would be? Their sheer size would mean the imminent extinction of the human race. Conventional weapons would be of no use. Our only hope would be to flee to the mountains and arctic climes, and hope the elephants became so lazy and hubristic that they eventually wiped themselves out. Link to post Share on other sites

speedz99 145 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 But what if the elephants were twice as large?I'm not sure they could survive. I forget the exact science behind this, but I've heard that mammals have a size limit due to physiological factors. I remember thinking that this didn't make sense, since size should matter as long as everything is proportional, but then if was explained very clearly and I believed it. Then, of course, I forgot the explanation, so really I shouldn't have even bothered bringing it up. Link to post Share on other sites

There's not much money in elephant knees.Jewish veternarian and serviceable beer league softball pitcher Matthew "Speedz" Goldbergsteinowitz was tragically killed today when a five ton elephant collapsed on top of him during a routine elephant knee replacement surgery....You motherfucker.

JoeyJoJo 18 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 I think regular sized elephants are already 5 tons or more.Like speedz would ever work on an African elephant. It's obviously an Asian elephant he's talking about.Asian elephants are actually about 5 tons and Africans are more, but whatever. Link to post Share on other sites
