@coel: I have a bumper sticker somewhere that reads "artificial intelligence beats real stupidity". I never owned a car so I never got to use it. And to tell the truth, the more I deal with AI at work, the more I doubt the message. Maybe we should rebrand it as AS

@Rory: not really. No way anyone is anywhere near being able to do anything nefarious with that deluge of information. Until we reach the singularity, information is processed by programs written by human, and humans are sloppy, dumb, and easily distracted

i don't know if pigeons do this, but some birds aim their shit at specific targets, and human heads are always entertaining for them, it seems.

happened to me, in the middle of an open field i was walking my family's dogs...a lone bird flew by one time - got me perfectly on the top of my head.

funny thing: when this tragedy happens we say to the target-person to go play a lottery xD

(i'd heard it was good luck, but i didn't think about that. all i thought about was getting home quickly and hosing my head off before someone saw me with shit on my head!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:05pm
fred:

@Liz: that's questionable: the one time it happened to me I was with a woman I was very attracted to, she helped me clean up and I guess I reacted with enough humor that we eventually dated, if briefly

I used to have a really long hair (but it was like an afro) and a bird also take a big one in my head. I had to travel like 1:30 hours (in rush hour) to get and wash myself. That was definitely not a lucky day (because I was going to buy something and didn't find it)

@Lara: actually she gave up and moved back to france. I think she still wants to try it, but she's not confident about the situation in Greece right now. She can bet her inheritance once, but she's not getting a second chance if it fails
