@Hi, I'm God: While "lol" is an overused meme, in this situation it is perfectly acceptable. Zer0vash was merely acknowledging and complimenting elryry for his/her witty comment, an action that is warmly welcomed by commenters.
I understand you probably did not realize any of this, Hi, I'm God, because getting applause for your comments is no doubt a foreign concept for you.
I used to love catching this demonstration, or one like it(it's not loading right now), on C-SPAN every year when I was a youth. They always did it in Washington D.C. w/one monument or another in the background. It was fun watching a dummy get blown up in a plywood constructed "kids room" w/curtains and some random poster.
So did they just put physical constraints on its growth area (ie, put it in a heart shaped box) or did they actually get a plant to grow to that shape on its own.
@something_unique_and_descripti...: They tried using a heart-shaped box but when the watermelon was at its height of perfection, it committed suicide using a shotgun.
@Thats Dr Bear to You: It's the seeds that bothers you isn't it. When you were small, did you accidentally swallow them and someone told you that you're going to grow watermelons in your stomach? Yeah.. Those jerks..
