Re: Off-Topic thread

Isn't this the Off-topic thread? I thought the whole point was we never stay on-topic?
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

LOL just giving you a hard time ;-)
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

I thought there was a movie thread, therefore you are once again wrong, just in a different way.

Indeed... I already gave someone else shit for talking about movies in here when we have a thread dedicated to them, on the front page no less.

As to deadly animals... I was going to suggest the immortal jellyfish, but further research shows it can't put out that much. And it's only biologically immortal as it can still easily be killed by disease and predators.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Pound for pound, the deadliest creature?

Influenza virus - if you are in the camp that quantifies a virus as a living organism.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Out of all possibilities, influenza?
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Yeah, I mean what about the bubonic plague, that was bacteria too...

However, considering that a single virus cell can't really do anything by itself (it has to multiply to do any damage) it's pretty useless pound for pound.

Also... you can't really make a cell bigger, whereas you could make bigger ants. They'd be made up of many more cells.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

I think what Soujouner is referring to is that statistically influenza has killed more people through-out history than any other disease also influenza is not just a virus, like the common cold, there are over 200 known bacterium and virus strain that can cause it.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

We eliminated the ant swarms since we're talking the singular here, wouldn't that also eliminate influenza or any other viruses for that matter.

Yep. Like I said, a virus can't do anything to you unless it multiplies. So its disqualified.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

And yea, remember I did say I couldn't decide on a size restriction with my friends cuz I don't know how something could kill an amoeba the same size as itself
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Wow I took way to long to type out that sentence.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Well, we can't all be amazing typists, some of us have to go out and work off the computer.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

In that case I vote for the karate(sp) better known as the two step the venom is so potent that a 200 pound man will go into cardiac arrest in 4 seconds after being bitten on the foot the snakes average size is about 14 in and it weighs about 8 ounces
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Oh the krait, at least you did say the spelling was off.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

oh that's how its spelled thank you I can never never remember:D
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

I was about to ask how a martial art was a deadly creature... but what's a krait?
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

Small tiny snake from India (I think) related to the much larger cobra.
 
Re: Off-Topic thread

its a small brown snake found in India around 8 ounces in weight and about 14 inches long and as I said before the venom is so potent it will cause cardiac arrest in a 200 pound man in 4 seconds
