a fixture of japanese pop culture who may arguably qualify as a middle-tier deity. first reaching movie screens in 1954 as the brainchild of screenwriter shigeru kayama, director ishiro honda, special effects whiz eiji tusburaya, and a nuclear bomb, godzilla traditionally takes the form of an oil-tanker-sized, bottom-heavy lizard with lumpy skin (though his name originally meant "gorilla-whale").

originally intended as a parable for the devastation wrought on the world by the advent of atomic weapons in the mid-20th century, and the lingering trauma felt by those who saw firsthand the dehumanization of war, nowadays he just kinda fights other big monsters and aliens and robots and so on so we can marvel at big flashy explosions. In this way he could be regarded as an inspiration on those rambo movies.

godzilla's long career can be divided into several distinct eras:
* Showa (1954-1975)
* Heisei (1984-1995)
* Millennium (1999-2004)
* And Reiwa, the attempt to bring him back to his arthouse origins. Also, the Americans tried making their own godzilla films, but they tried making their own chocolate too, and look how that turned out.

(british) a sport originally played in britain in the middle ages. it is played by two opposing teams who stand on opposite ends of a lawn and try to kick a ball into the opposing side's net. conceptually a fairly mind-numbing pastime, most people watch it in hopes of seeing the game degenerate into violence.

"classic" brutish british football is played according to strict association rules developed over centuries, and is thus called soccer (mostly by americans). however, several "unofficial" variations of the sport exist, including those that evolved into rugby, american football (see below) and probably some other, even worse ones.

"Rome wasn't built in a day" is a phrase that has been around for centuries but when it comes to the construction of the ancient city of Rome it may as well have been built in the blink of an eye compared to the amount of time it takes to build a decent cup of tea.

Yes, that's right, I'm talking about the art of tea-making. The perfect cup of tea takes time, effort and patience - much like the building of an ancient city. You have to get the water temperature just right, let the tea steep for the optimal amount of time and add just the right amount of milk and sugar.

Now, I know what you're thinking. "Lister, how can you compare the construction of an ancient city to making a cup of tea?" Well, let me tell you, both require a delicate balance of ingredients and timing. One misstep and you could end up with a bitter cup of tea or a collapsing city.

So, let us not forget the true meaning behind the phrase "Rome wasn't built in a day". It's not just about the construction of ancient cities, it's about the finer things in life like a good cup of tea. So, next time you're in the middle of a long, drawn-out tea-making process, remember, great things take time. And if it takes you a little longer to make a decent cup of tea, just think of all the time and effort that went into building the mighty city of Rome.

In conclusion, let us raise a cup of tea to perseverance, patience and the ancient Romans for inspiring us to take our tea-making just as seriously as they took city-building.

n. A union of two or more parties, factions or associations for promoting some purpose, commonly nefarious.

Once upon a time, in the vast and interconnected world of Discord, there lived a deranged user named Coofl. Coofl was known to possess an erratic and troublesome nature, causing chaos and confusion wherever they went.
Coofl's presence in various Discord servers would often ignite heated debates and stir up controversy. They seemed to derive pleasure from provoking others and exploiting vulnerabilities within online communities. The username "Coofl" became synonymous with trouble and unpredictability.
One fateful day, Coofl stumbled upon a peaceful server dedicated to gardening and tranquility. The server was a safe haven for nature enthusiasts and gardeners to share tips, beautiful pictures, and connect with like-minded individuals.
As soon as Coofl joined the server, chaos ensued. They began flooding the channels with disruptive messages, spamming memes and inappropriate content. Coofl had no regard for the peaceful atmosphere that the server cherished. The members were taken aback by the sudden disruption, their once harmonious space now tainted by Coofl's reckless behavior.
The moderators and administrators swiftly took action, attempting to contain Coofl's disruptive antics. They warned, muted, and even banned Coofl from the server. But Coofl seemed relentless, finding new ways to bypass the restrictions and continue their disruptive behavior.
The server members, frustrated and exhausted, decided to unite against Coofl. They brainstormed strategies, developed stronger moderation systems, and established stricter guidelines. Together, they created a safe and resilient community, immune to Coofl's destructive actions.
Coofl, underestimated the resilience of the server's members, was astonished by their unity and determination. In their quest for chaos, they inadvertently sparked a stronger community driven by the shared love for gardening and tranquility.
Realizing their futile attempts to disrupt the server, Coofl finally decided to change their ways. They sought guidance from the server's moderators, sincerely expressing remorse for their past actions. The community, cautious yet open-minded, decided to give Coofl a second chance.
Coofl gradually transformed from a deranged user to a valued member of the gardening community. They embraced the server's principles, actively engaging in discussions, and sharing their own gardening experiences. Coofl even took the initiative to assist others, providing helpful advice and support to fellow members.
Over time, Coofl's erratic behavior faded, replaced by a newfound sincerity and respect for others. Their journey from being a disruptor to an integral part of the community inspired others to choose empathy and understanding over condemnation.
The story of Coofl stands as a reminder of the transformative power of communities, their ability to heal, and their capacity to empower individuals to change their ways. Discord, once shaken by chaos, became a platform where people connected, learned, and grew together, with Coofl as a shining example of redemption and personal growth.
