Berserkers were Viking warriors that wore bear-skin shirts to look more intimidating—the berserkers were also trained to embody the spirit of an enraged bear, and summon up all their inner heat and rage to be more effective in combat. This process was facilitated by the ingestion of hallucinogenic mushrooms.
This is part of why the vikings were so terrifying. You'd be minding your own business in some village in Northern Europe or along the English coast, and suddenly a long-boat full of angry dudes, dressed in skins, stoned out of their minds and convinced they were predatory animals, would show up and start hacking everything to pieces.
ok this is a funny list. i remember i was going to start something like this when i was a little f'd up and then the next day i deleted it cuz it made no sense to me sober.
TEPCO (Tokyo Electric Power Company), the lovely folks who are leaking 330 tons of irradiated water into the Pacific ocean every day since March 11th, 2011.
seems faster now. i know some of my big lists are reaching critical mass, prolly make a 'part 2' of those lists to speed things up. i don't need delays right now thanks
ok is it me or is the site becoming more sluggish? is it my lists are getting too long, or my connection or computer? anyone else have any insight? thank you.
yes this list is by erin, i think she intended it to be actual numbers in mathematics and physics, and as you posted there is the list for fictitious. so this is the more serious list. :)
i see those are wikipedia lists, maybe reesetee will open this list
really, that needs to be nixed. its so cheesy to see that every day. makes the site look broken and unprofessional (if its stale data then why display it?). thank you for pointing that out bilby.
overall the site is working nicely, but there's one thing that's very annoying and that's the tedious 3 clicks and 2 scrolls it takes to list a word from the word page itself. (1 to drop to the list area, 2 to expand that list, and then the scroll to find that list which is rather long and ridiculous easier to ctrl-f and search UGH, then a final 3rd click to check the box) that is truly crazy. surely u agree. i've outlined a better solution before and i'm sure that's one of many but really it's easier to open a list tab and then copy or type the words out. that's not too intuitive or fancy at all.
i've got about 20 tabs of words i like and i'm cringing at the thought of how to go about this.
yeah this is a very preliminary list that will be seperated at some point into more specific categories. i have plan for using these lists for computer generated character development at some point. nerdy isn't on the list btw.
programatically it might be a bit tricky, but this is one really useful 'feature' or more of a granular control: on our list page, in the drop down 'organize by' list, have an option for 'most recently active'. for me this would streamline my workflow immensely!
kind of.. its when the page only loads some content until you scroll down then at the bottom you may see a loading spinner that waits and then loads more content. here's a page that takes a while to load erin: http://www.wordnik.com/lists/b-adjectival-arcana-a
it may be useful to have the option at the top to load all content at once, but have a note that it maybe slow on longer lists? but honestly i think there's a problem with the server.. it shouldn't take this long to load 8000 words.
several times i add a word to a list thinking no one has listed it and it'll pop up listed over here. hernesheir added these one by one i think. amazing
another handy feature concerning list organization aside from being able to categorize our own lists would be to be able to categorize other lists from our favorites. i know this is a bit nit-picky but i could use this too at this point .. it gets overwhelming as you probably are aware of erin. :)
i have my own reasons for this and i'm sure there are other users (present and future) that could utilize something like this for their own needs i would think.
whatever happened to custom ordering of words in lists and our list of lists (alphabetical, custom, etc) ? or better yet, how about being able to move lists around into categorized lists? i'm ready to take this site to the next level. seriously, i don't know if anyone else could use uber-granular controls but i sure could.
chrome i've disabled my extensions thats so weird. what could cause that? firefox its showing fine. it appears for a split second onload then goes bye bye .. odd
UPDATE: i've figured it out, when my page zoom is set to 75% it goes away. it's either wrapping or going behind something so that's a bug. it actually reappears at 50%

overall the site is working nicely, but there's one thing that's very annoying and that's the tedious 3 clicks and 2 scrolls it takes to list a word from the word page itself. (1 to drop to the list area, 2 to expand that list, and then the scroll to find that list which is rather long and ridiculous easier to ctrl-f and search UGH, then a final 3rd click to check the box) that is truly crazy. surely u agree. i've outlined a better solution before and i'm sure that's one of many but really it's easier to open a list tab and then copy or type the words out. that's not too intuitive or fancy at all.

yeah this is a very preliminary list that will be seperated at some point into more specific categories. i have plan for using these lists for computer generated character development at some point. nerdy isn't on the list btw.

programatically it might be a bit tricky, but this is one really useful 'feature' or more of a granular control: on our list page, in the drop down 'organize by' list, have an option for 'most recently active'. for me this would streamline my workflow immensely!

kind of.. its when the page only loads some content until you scroll down then at the bottom you may see a loading spinner that waits and then loads more content. here's a page that takes a while to load erin: http://www.wordnik.com/lists/b-adjectival-arcana-a
it may be useful to have the option at the top to load all content at once, but have a note that it maybe slow on longer lists? but honestly i think there's a problem with the server.. it shouldn't take this long to load 8000 words.

another handy feature concerning list organization aside from being able to categorize our own lists would be to be able to categorize other lists from our favorites. i know this is a bit nit-picky but i could use this too at this point .. it gets overwhelming as you probably are aware of erin. :)
i have my own reasons for this and i'm sure there are other users (present and future) that could utilize something like this for their own needs i would think.

whatever happened to custom ordering of words in lists and our list of lists (alphabetical, custom, etc) ? or better yet, how about being able to move lists around into categorized lists? i'm ready to take this site to the next level. seriously, i don't know if anyone else could use uber-granular controls but i sure could.

chrome i've disabled my extensions thats so weird. what could cause that? firefox its showing fine. it appears for a split second onload then goes bye bye .. odd
UPDATE: i've figured it out, when my page zoom is set to 75% it goes away. it's either wrapping or going behind something so that's a bug. it actually reappears at 50%
let me know if u can replicate that
