just wondering how rediscovering modern civilization would look like tens of millions of years later. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD381A3C3DF48A229
i've seen a couple of those, unfortunately it doesnt answer the questions i seek.
the show goes on to about 10,000 years. what i'm curious is tens, hundreds of million years and what can survive as human artifacts, not organic in form of fossils but plastic, steel and whatnot. what remains of human civilization when beach shores become mountains and everest becomes a shore? only thing i can think of is stuff like gold.
found this on their wiki:
1,000,000 years: The Golden Records aboard the Voyager space probes are damaged beyond recognition after centuries of collisions with dust and space debris. A new species of camelid, descending from escaped camels from a ranch near Las Vegas, evolves in the plains to resemble the guanaco with the low lying vegetation created by the new ice ages.
10,000,000 years: San Francisco has completely disappeared. The fossilized corpses of New Orleans are a mile and a half underground. Pressure and heat have transformed the soft tissue that remained into oil.
100,000,000 years: All that will remain from the existence of human beings are our fossilized bones.

She said she didn't remember where she saw the video. This just hurts because I just don't know what to do, but I know I would never say anything bad about her, ever. That's why this bugs me so much. What did I say? Why did I say it? Did I actually say it?
Please, can you help me find some bm compilation video that includes me talking trash?
tell her you don't remember.
or its just her excuse to remove you out of her life. (maybe)

Does growing a beard make cunnilingus more pleasurable for the lady?

If you choose to grow a beard, keep it maintained and don't grow a neckbeard.

Too many people do the latter and claim they are doing the former when it clearly isn't the case because they look like a hobo.

Why are most sequels of movies utter crap? Are they really just trying to milk the cow and get away with shitty job, or do they actually think it is good?

Jim and Jhon go into war, jim dies and jhon comes back, takes jhon takes jims indentity card, swaps the photo and comes back saying he is jim, cause he wants his wife and his riches. Jhon procedes to live the rest of his life pretending he is Jim and ejoyes himself immensely. How come no one ever found out jhon was pretending to be jim?

Because Jim faked his death then killed Jhon. So Jim was impersonating himself.

Jim and Jhon are actually the same person with multiple personality disorder, going at war with themselves. Jhon eventually kills Jim and can finally live his life in peace without torment of his alternative identity.

Hi Nina. Maybe ask in your stream chat or your stream thread ? They would know better

Depends on the movie.
Some sequels are episodic, that is, the first movie was written as a complete story, and the second was built upon it with a completely new beginning and end. This kind of movie is the easiest to milk - think the Hangover 2, or the Fast & Furious series - assuming the first one did well. Sometimes the creators try to push the concept of the first movie and expand it into a second, but it ends up seeming more like an addition than an expansion, and the sequel is well-received but not as well as the first one. This is where Shrek 2 is.
Some sequels are part of a larger framework - a trilogy, perhaps. In the case of a trilogy usually the second movie is the best-received because it is the darkest, the most development can occur (the first movie needs to set the scene and the third movie needs to wrap everything up), and you have the least amount of knowledge what's going to happen. The sequel usually outperforms the original in this case - like The Empire Strikes Back, or The Dark Knight.
Longer series can go anywhere with this. Harry Potter was written as seven books and seems to have gotten better because a) Rowling's actual writing style improved, but more importantly b) she had at least a general idea of where she wanted to take the story before she wrote each book, meaning books 2-7 didn't seem like addons but continuations of one long, increasingly epic story. The movies got better as well as they stopped trying to follow the books and met the conventions of movies (i.e. at 60 minutes you have the turning point, 90 minutes low point, well-paced beginning-middle-end etc.) which is why movies 3-7(8) were miles above 1-2 in viewer satisfaction.
Also you'll like the original of whatever you see because it was first. This is why older fans of Star Wars are more hostile to the prequel trilogy than younger fans who grew up on the prequels or both sets of movies simultaneously.
In short, if multiple movies are able to be written into one overarching story, the sequels will probably be good and possibly outperform the originals. If they're tacked onto one another, the sequels will have a steady decline in interest, altered only by some sort of elements the writers can add in there to spice up the plot (character death, plot twist, etc.)

No I'm not thinking about that and no I don't sniff down there either but I couldn't help but get the image of someone sniffing the pyrimids into nonexistence just now.
