42. A good question indeed.
A Tarkus is a beast that is half armadillo and half tank. In an old myth from 1971, Tarkus erupted out of a a volcano, fought a bunch of dudes, and beat most of them. Then he came across the Manticore and the Manticore kind of beat him. A tarkus looks like this:

26. Possibly so, but
No one in GD would ever read your posts, believing all of them to be more of the same droll little squabbling they'd seen earlier in the day.

10. I've Been Thinking of Changing to "Ironweed"
for about a year. From the William Kennedy book. It resonates for some reason. Something about being a battered survivor, vaguely from the Northeast, vaguely from another generation. But to people who read the book, it might sound like I was an alchoholic. Or a stoner to people who didn't. Hate to give up the post count and start over, though.

Besides, I got "ribofunk" from a boingboing publication, and it got old about ten years ago. Just a lack of an alternative with conviction.

Well, Raven already took it (Hi, WillPitt's Mom! I'm TheOrangeHat's Mom!) but if not Raven, it'd probably been Ooniuq.

That's basically "little shit" in Athapaskan.
