[QUOTE=TheSporeGA;36251806]I want one.
But it wouldn't hold much.[/QUOTE]
I think it's for alcohol.
You're not suppose to have big cups for that kind of drink anyway.
It's a shot glass, it isn't supposed to hold a lot.

Looks awfully big for a shot glass, but I guess that's needed if you want the skull shape.
It is a bit big, actually. It holds 2.5 ounces/74~ milliliters, which is just between a single shot and a double shot (in American standards, anyways.)
wow, a single shot here in Sweden (most of Europe too, I guess), is 20milliliters, and a double is 40ml, I think there is 6cl too, not so sure though.

Artist's representation of "Eden"
I like it, even though I could never believe the Genesis, this version is really imaginative.
reminds me of [url=http://www.scp-wiki.net/dr-clef-s-proposal]SCP-001[/url] about The Gate Guardian.
Still, as I am atheistic, I find the idea of some kind of Alien or Hyper-mashine that created us more realistic than the religious god.
But please don't argue about this now, I'm not here to invoke a shitstorm.
The pic just looks plain epic.

Lots of things in nature follow geometric patterns. Don't read into it too much though, it just shows that there are simple physical rules that govern the universe.

Yes.
I think the first two are great. The second in particular. People have a habit, in all walks of life, of finding a group, using only what's found in that group and shunning the rest. You should try everything and combine to make the best

Most of it's pretty cheesy, but by no means does that mean it is not good.

This. This really made me think about what life is about, what we do. Like now, what the fuck are we doing? Why are we (see: facepunchers) inside at the computer, and in my case, eating egg and bacon for dinner (I suck at cooking stuff :v:), while we can be outside, enjoying life along with friends and family, making life better for people having it bad, and so on?
Gonna go buy the local homeless guy a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun soon, just because of this
For me, I realized I was on the right path, but it motivated me to keep going. I paint, I photograph, I write, I create video games, atmospheres, draw and take a deep interest in science and physics e.t.c.
Being on Facepunch helps me develop and discuss all of this. It's an enabler. All career paths for me currently are uncertain, and I've been wondering if I should go for something safer education wise, but this simply reassured me to keep going even if it might be hard to make a living off of it. Besides, I live in Norway. There's always welfare, so it wouldn't be all that náive.
These motivationals made me feel bad. The one about persistance in particular. :(
I love fractals.

Neat fact about the Mandelbrot set:
The black areas represent the points on the complex plane which become unbounded as they are exponentiated to themselves infinitely many times.
So, the point e^1/e, approximately 1.444, is the rightmost black point on the Mandelbrot set because e^^x converges as x approaches infinity.
Edit:
Sorry, I was talking about the wrong Mandelbrot set.
This one represents tetration:
