50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

I am *so* easily amused.

See, because mushrooms are a fungus, and the plural of fungus is fungi. Which is a homophone for fun guy.
Fungi

Good morning, Europe.

Good Afternoon, Australia.

Go to bed, North America.

    Not mush room in this blog for a decent sense of humour, huh?

    True Story: we had a teacher at upper (high) school called Mr Mold and whenever we had lessons with him I’d say to my friend “he’s a fun guy to be with”. Unfortunately my otherwise very bright and clever (she has a PhD in chemistry) friend never got the joke until a couple of years later. Naturally, I’ll never let her live that one down.

    Yes that oldie is growing fungus on it! haha…

    Hey a bit off topic but I watched s7e10 of big bang. always enjoy your scenes. 1. Not allowing the whistle was too harsh. would have been nice to see a good gesture for a change. 2. Is that writer dialogue or is there truth in the star trek part of the scene? I for one always liked your character and all crew not withstanding, absent yours or spiner’s character NCC would have perished plenty of times… Was it that harsh for real? People need to get a grip. You were hysterical in “the naked now” tribute remake episode. Plenty of great footage and considering you gave up a lot in your childhood to provide the filming it’s kind of ungrateful to be critical towards you. My two cents anyhow…

    maybe it was the whole filtered edge equipment in Asia that got the omission? (possibly would have been in vain?) lolz Don’t worry, USA to follow very soon!

    Just keep me in the dark and feed me sh*t and I’ll be a fun guy too

    LOL, you actually made that joke funny! I’m laughing now, and my kids think I’m crazy.

    And a good night from Texas to you as well! I always said your Fun guy Sir!

    Speaking of easily amused, I wrote some code to produce these “amusing” variations: http://freymanart.com/Wil4.jpg

    Top left: 1-bit color
    Bot left: Recursive subdivision
    Top right: Mobius transformation
    Bot right: Fractal tessellation

    Yep, I have too much free time on my hands.

    Canada can’t even get separate billing?
    I’d be pissed – if I didn’t worship your coolness, Wil Wheaton.

    Oy! What a thing to encounter, early on a Sunday morning!

    Since you’re the games guy, I thought you’d be interested in an article about a Viking game called Hnefatafl – seems like a chess variant, but … not. https://medium.com/war-is-boring/cef088ae4e2d is where I found it.
