Pretty bad.

I used the following to determine how bad it really is:

Good ---- Normal ---- Okay ---- Pretty Bad ---- Bad ---- Fucking Horrible
------------------------------------------------------||--------------------------------------

As you can see, it's pretty bad.

I hope that helps! Have a great rest of the week.

Clearly, you work for the NRC. Your strong conclusions combined with your excellent summary remove all doubt about your expertise and broad familiarity with, wait, what were we discussing here again?

It is pretty bad. And not going to get better anytime soon.

I saw the preview of the season finally Flash episode and they made it seem like he might turn bad. I was a little concerned about that because they obviously have more villains than hero's so they really need him right now.

I DVRed it so please don't spoil it for me.

BTW, do you think my wife would enjoy a two headed flower the next time she is mad at me or for a holiday? I feel like she'll be getting two-for-one and she loves what they call a 'BOGO" (not the urbandictionary version but maybe that too ha). Additionally, I feel like I could get a nice discount on mutants.

It's just at the far end of "Pretty Bad" but not nearly as close to just "Bad".

I think it's time to hire a third party consultant to analyze the chart.

Has the post-Fukushima whaling quota been adjusted to count this as two whales?

I heard this tech talk about Rocky Flats.

He said he once caught a bunny hopping around the radioactive goo outside.

He said they have a technical term to describe when the testing device is off the scale on the highest range: "You see, that bunny was screaming ass hot."
"There's hot and then there's screaming ass hot---that bunny was screaming ass hot."

So... I wasn't going to post this, but this seems to have taken on a fairly light-hearted tone.

My local sushi place has introduced a Fukushima roll. It's like Unagi, but instead of broiled, it's microwaved.
