Beefy's Corner.......The Off-Topic Chat Thread

Unless it's by Hot Pie. Not Gendry though, that dude's like 25.

 

Go onto Google Maps and type in "52.376552,5.198303" - then hit enter...

 

I appear to be somewher in Holland.

 

Now zoom right in.

 

Looks vaguely like someone dumping a body. Likely isn't someone dumping a body, given that it's i) daytime, ii) on a platform that happens to be in plain sight for a considerable distance in a 360 degree radius, with the combination of those two facts making it roughly the worst place and time imaginable to be dumping a body.

 

I can't get the 3D effect on my work PC, I'll try at home later.

 

Definitely does look like blood though.

 

Don't think so; for one thing, the 'blood' extends beyond where the 'body' is located...think that it's just water on the platform. If they actually left a giant puddle of blood, they truly are the worst murder-cover-uppers ever to cover up a murder.

 

The "body", if that is what it is, looks far to big to be that of a human. Unless it's a pile of humans. My first thought was dead horse. Also murderers tend to be stupid so that should always be considered.

Or it could just be something totally different.

 

Someone at work accidentally spoiled a certain event in book 3 for me, so I had to start reading it. Can't really blame the guy though. Given how much geeky stuff i'm into, it's not an unreasonable assumption that I had already read it.

 

bit of advice for anyone changing their windscreen wiper blades on a car; don't let the naked wiper arm snap back without the new blade on it, because then you'll have to fork out for a new windscreen as well

 

It's probably something perfectly innocent. If that person is dumping a body that person is incredibly stupid.

 

Yikes Joe's catching up on me, I better post more often on here.

 

Being reported that there were two large explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon, and there have been multiple injuries:

Oh dear those are not good scenes. Hope they are gas explosions or something accidental like that, but not holding my breath.

 

Any deaths? Looks like a lot of blood there in the first picture.

 

None reported as yet.

 

No deaths reported so far, but people leaving the scene with lost/mangled limbs...

 

Gas explosion isn't the worst bet in Boston, even with the suspicious timing; Massachusetts seems to average one every few months. Happened a few hours after the winners crossed the line; if it was a bomb, that's probably not when they'd have set it off, given that the crowds would have thinned considerably by then. Thankfully.

 

Just seen a video of the explosion. Didn't look massive, but you wouldn't want to be at the centre of it. Very surprising and fortunate if not a single person has been killed by this.
