A basic computer system, typically features the chassis (housing-case), motherboard, a stick of RAM, and a floppy disk drive.

An excellent science fiction movie series. Features a race of insect-like aliens called Xenomorphs, which have acidic blood and a collective mentality. They lay eggs like normal insects, but the larvae can only mature into adults by leaping onto a host organism's face and injecting themselves dow into the digestive tract. The adults burrow themselves out of the host, killing it in the process.

Roadkill is comprised mostly of rodents, turtles, deer. The rest is composed of domestic animals bred for aesthetics.

You would think that people would be smart enough to listen to that old Indian guy's advice and NOT FUCKING BUILD ANYTHING PERMANENT THERE, but sadly, millions of ignorant folks keep building their mansions, and their towns, and their Double-Wide trailers, just to see them get smashed into matchwood each year by tornadoes and floods.
