a very handy device that has been proven to kill unwanted threads.
If you see a thread that offends you or you think it should die simply post "/lava" in that thread and I guarentee it won't make it past the next 4 posts without dieing.
Molten rock that has ben extruded from a subterranean reservour(magma chamber) onto the earth's surface. Many factors are involved in determining how forceful is ejected onto the surface, but the silica content seems to be a large determing factor. The higher the silica, the thicker the melt, which causes dissolved gases to become trapped inside crystal lattices within the melt, which means...KABOOM!!
Cascade volcanoes have a relatively high proportion of dissolved gases, which often makes their eruptions explosive
Lava is molten rock that originated from the mantle of a planet. Usually extracted through volcanos either on land or underneath water. Not to be confused with magma, which is molten rock that is still under the planets surface. Magma turns into lava after it erupts onto the surface. The core of Earth is often confused to be magma or rock, but most scientists believe it is iron or some other metal creating the magnetic poles.
Lava fields are very dangerous; if you step in it you willlose your foot.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murdererused a serrated blade.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
Short-hand for the word floccinaucinihilipilification, meaning the estimation of something as valueless (encountered mainly as an example of one of the longest words in the English language).
