8 was the last incorrect answer.

7 is horrifying true.

Spoiler

Yaaayyyy

Yeah nature is nasty.

And yeh number 8 is some "is the sky really blue or is that just how the colour refracts" kinda technical nonsense question. Pterodactyls are dinosaurs, and science can lick a butt.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

My general culture knowledge is really poor, but I'll give it a shot

Spoiler

The trues are:

1: Know anything about American history, so wild guess
3: I think quarks are smaller...
4: Don't really remember who directed the film, loved it though
5: I'm sure there's something like that in Australia hahaha
8: I'm pretty sure on this one
9: Wild guess

The false:

2: This one was trough elimination process, and I think it would be hilarious if it were true
6: If this one is true I'll rethink my life choices
7: This looks too weird to be true, but hey, we live in a strange world.

Spoiler

6 is incorrect.
2 and 7 were correct.

You need two more.

Goody. Gonna invest in some flip-flops.

I've of course spoiled myself somewhat at this point by looking at N3ON's response - thought it was a one-and-done - but let's try again.

1. False as verified.
2. True as verified.
3. True. Stated reasoning.
4. True as verified.
5. True. Most salamander species aren't anywhere near that long, although the mythical Salamander was pretty damn big. But it seems plausible in a Komodo dragon kinda way. Still guessing.
6. False as verified.
7. True as verified. Blech.
8. True. Stated reasoning.
9. False. Humans have diversified the **** out of dogs and taken them to every climate on the planet, including ones where hair might be a liability, but I can't think of one hairless breed, let alone five - just a lot of really, really short-hairs, like Chihuahuas. Still guessing.

8 was the last incorrect answer.

Spoiler

"Pterosaurs are often referred to in the popular media and by the general public as "flying dinosaurs", but this is scientifically incorrect. The term "dinosaur" is restricted to just those reptiles descended from the last common ancestor of the groups Saurischia and Ornithischia (clade Dinosauria, which includes birds), and current scientific consensus is that this group excludes the pterosaurs, as well as the various groups of extinct marine reptiles, such as ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and mosasaurs."

Oh is that so, taxonomists.

Well how bout you all just crack open some nice, cold, refreshing cans of go **** yourselves with a cactus.

Spoiler

9 is correct.

There are at least five hairless dog breeds.

Spoiler

I still can't fathom a hairless dog short of using an electric razor.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Okay here's the activity.

I have nine facts here.

Six are true but three are false.

Students then need to guess which ones are which.

Now because we're on the internet, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO LOOK THESE THINGS UP.

And be sure to put your answers in spoilers so other people aren't persuaded.

Any-who.

Here are the facts.

1. In 1775, George Washington married Mary Prescott.
2. Chinese Fortune Cookies are not actually Chinese.
3. There are things smaller than atoms.
4. The film, Wreck-It Ralph was directed by Rich Moore.
5. One species of salamander can grow up to 1.5 meters (or almost five feet) long.
6. Camels with one hump can grow a second hump if they get old enough.
7. White sand at beaches is actually made up of parrot fish droppings.
8. Pterodactyls were flying dinosaurs.
9. There are at least five hairless dog breeds in existence.

Ooh, random useless facts! I'm good with those.

So.

I'm doing an assignment with my kiddos where they have to guess whether a fact is true or not.

This is done to make sure they understand the value of sources.

Wanna give it a shot guys?

I will take a shot at it.
Bah lets see how it goes.

We need a new direct soon.

I agree. Hoping it is Smash for Switch information so that the Smash 4 meta can die a peaceful death.

Hey at least you got more likes than I did, be glad on that kiddo.
Sad I missed the game though, wish I could play it.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Oh look. A fan who wants Smash in a Direct that isn't E3.

Dude, Smash is WAY too hype for a typical Direct reveal. If it's announced on a non-E3 Direct, it's most definitely a port

And really, I don't see how Smash 4 can "die peacefully" when a good chuck of the competitive fanbase have been biting each other since day one, but for different reasons, like custom moves, pre-nerf Diddy, pre-nerf Sheik, Cloud, Bayonetta, begging for any of the previously mentionned characters to get nerfs instead of just adapting like any other Smash game, etc.

Smash 4's meta dying would not be a peaceful death, but a mercy kill.

Hey at least you got more likes than I did, be glad on that kiddo.

Don't call me kiddo. I'm like, almost 50% older than you.

>Kara no Kyoukai event

I ****ing love this guy. I'd die for you, Cu.

Also, yay, got Shiki permanently. She'll be stuck with a Lv.1 NP forever but that's okay

The Smash 4 meta has had Bayonetta ban problems for quite a while, but it cooled off in 2017. Frostbite 2018 had so much Bayonettas that people got salty and demanded for her ban. If more Bayonettas play Bayonetta, people are going to demand for more bans and the Smash 4 meta will be a place of wars. The only three things that people want to ban in Smash 4 are Cloud in Doubles, Bayo in Singles and Lylat Cruise.
Oh, it would make sense for Smash for Switch to return in E3. If they do reveal it, that would be great.

Fine.

The Smash 4 meta always had problems and it always had wars. They just move to others reasons to complain once the opportunity shows up.

The only three things that people want to ban in Smash 4 are Cloud in Doubles, Bayo in Singles and Lylat Cruise.

Lylat is justified because this stage is so janky it's a wonder it's from the final version rather than a beta build.

Banning a single character in Singles/Doubles but not the other is utterly ridiculous and there's really no good reason to ban Cloud or Mayo other than salt. And banning for salt would just make fighting game communities see the Smash fanbase as a bunch of bratty crybabies.

Lylat is funnily janky. The ledges act so weird because when it tilts, you can go through the ledges for some reason. The tilting can even get you away and make you not dizzy if you are. The ledges act weird besides the "going through" part though.

The smash community is already a bunch of crybabies.
I disagree with banning Cloud in Doubles and Bayonetta in Singles. Smash 4 Bayonetta is no where near Brawl MK and the reason why people want to ban Bayonetta is because they hate fighting her more than Brawl MK even. It is honestly hard to say if I want to or not to ban Lylat Cruise.

1 was a lucky guess, I knew a camel with one bump is called a dromedary and they are slightly different from the regular camel and was surprised to learn 7 was wrong and 8 was right. Still, not bad. We should do this more often.

Some stages have been banned for less than that, iirc.

Lylat not getting banned even though it has a really good reason to be banned (the jankiness) is really weird to me...

The smash community is already a bunch of crybabies.

Yeah, but I don't want people to have an even worse perception of it. Especially since the "crybabies" are just the vocal minority.

I disagree with Cloud in Doubles and Bayonetta in Singles. Smash 4 Bayonetta is no where near Brawl MK and the reason why people want to ban Bayonetta is because they hate fighting her more than Brawl MK even. It is honestly hard to say if I want to or not to ban Lylat Cruise.

I disagree with character bans whatsoever. Stage bans are another story because they usually have very good reasons to be banned.

I AM SO MAD AT MYSELF, I MEANT TO SAY THAT I DID NOT WANT TO BAN CLOUD IN DOUBLES AND I DID NOT WANT TO BAN BAYONNETTA IN SINGLES UGH I FEEL LIKE PUNCHING MYSELF.
Either way, I agree with you. Fixed my post.

HE DOES, it is just they are little stubs.
View attachment 137202
So they do count as feet technically, they do not have to be human-like.
How am I comically missing the point dear Unicorn?

I always like the sound of his "feet" walking....

I got Mythra to S rank, now I'm wondering how long is the grind gonna be for S+.

I can probably steamroll through most things now either way, but I need... to go even further beyond.

Well, the first blade I complete its affinity chart... was Poppi... the original one...
hopefully I can complete Boreas' and Sheba's real soon.

Also...
My sis got her second Switch... and this one made me pretty jealous because she bought the Odyssey bundle... and this might make those from US jealous, Taiwan's Super Mario Odyssey bundle has the actual copy... and... not my sis doesn't even want to play the game, she just want the red joy con...
I aware that US Odyssey bundle only has the code, according to Reviewtechusa's unboxing video I saw back then.

So you may ask what about her first Nintendo Switch? Well, my two brothers are currently playing and either one of them is going to "buy" it off from my sis.

It is both awesome and suck that my sis surpassed my story progress (I doubt she got more rare Blades than me though)... this means everytime she's playing it on TV I have to bypass quick.
At least she still doesn't have KOS MOS...

Just didn't go so great.

 

[Metal Shop X]

Hey mario123007 , just curious, did you bought alot of shop? 'cuz, there is some in the games (two in Mor Ardain if I remember correctly) that, once you bought them, they give you more place to buy more boosters. Which is quit handy when you have to salvage alot, but can't due to being limited to five by boosters.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Read this Stoopid, I am hoping you do not think that I actually want to ban Cloud in doubles and Bayonetta in singles.

I never said you did. I was just sharing my point of view in bans.

When the spokesquid for Mayo has enough money to afford a pool filled with that white stuff, you know it's not going to happen because she can use bribes.

So, what is the next splatfest going to be about? Cows vs Chickens? IDK.

Yes... I aware that as story progress, there will be more merc missions available to add more content for shops.
Once you buy all things in those shops you will get deeds.
For now I can hold up to 25 boosters, but I can only add up to 5 at once, not sure if there are deeds that can expand that.
