Life, the universe, and everything

Whenever I feel sad or bored, I think about how incredibly tiny atoms and protons and neutrons are, how these tiny forms of matter so small that they can’t even be seen with our most powerful microscopes, these objects that make up atoms, exist in excess of trillions of trillions of trillions throughout the universe. How everything ever in existence is made of these small little particles, you and me included. How my existence is the result of billions of particles that are too small to even be

School's out

Even as an adult in college, nothing is better than a snow day.

Something I want to clarify

So I want to make sure this is clear because it would appear that I have posted something that can be misinterpreted as a statement about something on BZP for the second time in a week.   Nothing - I repeat, nothing - I post here is in any way at all talking about any issue or hot topic or recent outburst or anything at all on here.   I don't do much on the forums anymore, and when I do, it's usually in the off-topic forum. I have no awareness of almost anything that goes on here. I just blog he

That's not true and you know it

Few things make me as sad as seeing someone - especially someone who's pretty smart and well-thought normally - willingly spreading information that's blatantly fake only because it echoes their bias.   It's like, you're better than this. Don't do this, you have to know this isn't true. Don't lower yourself to willingly lying just to make a point.

Dying for art

Is it a bad thing that I have a fascination with art created by artists who, for one reason or another, are dying or will, be it because of illness or anything else, be dead soon and know it?   There's something about the way the mind deals with that unspeakable fear and the way it can completely change the style of the artist that fascinates me in a disturbingly morbid fashion.

Do you know me?

It always amuses me when I find someone I know on another website, but I have a different name on there than on the website I met them on, so they can't connect the dots and figure out it's me.   The best part is when they recognize things I do and know I'm someone they know, but can't figure out who, or they say I remind them of me.

Well that gif ended up being surprisingly accurate.

Conclusions

Nothing has gotten me into more trouble in discussions than jumping to conclusions.   Please, wait until you have solid evidence to say someone is doing/saying/etc. X, and just stick to conjecture and theoretical statements until you get the aforementioned proof. I speak from experience when I say nothing will blow up in your face and leave it covered in egg faster than jumping to a conclusion that ends up false. Even if it's something as minor as the Superbowl.

Hey Bfa look I'm talking about Daft Punk

So let's talk about the lyrics of the Daft Punk song Get Lucky. First though, fun fact: punk band Versailles broke up in 1993. Two of its members became Daft Punk. The other four are the French alternative rock band known as Phoenix.   Like the legend of the Phoenix   The story of the Phoenix, or the story of the band formed of members of Daft Punk's old band.   Our ends were beginnings   Out of the end of Versailles, came the beginnings of both Phoenix and Daft Punk.   What keeps the planet spi

Aww

It makes me really sad when I find a clip on Youtube that's completely family-friendly, but then has a bumper on the end with something I'd get punished for posting.   The clip itself is fine, but the whole video doesn't work.   It's like the internet is taunting me.

Question for people in apartments

What are the noise restrictions in your building?   One of the biggest things I'm looking forward to when I have my own place is being able to bang out at least a rough version of musical ideas at any hour, because they seem to like to come to me right before bed, but I can't exactly play at 2 AM, or even at 11, even if I plug into an amp sim so the only sound is the plinking of electric guitar strings, which isn't even as loud without an amp as folding a paper bag. Singing obviously is right ou

At least be smart about it

I have no issue with people disagreeing with me.   I have no issue with people expressing an opinion that runs counter to one I believe firmly. I do make an exception to this for opinions that are genuinely harmful - for example, I don't care how respectfully you go about phrasing it, I am going to lose every ounce of respect I can place in you if you try to convince me that vaccines are bad, and I don't care what they're like/interested in/etc., it's never okay to bully someone - but for most s

Yaaaaay

As infuriating as it is when smart people do and say dumb things, it's nice when they do a smart/cool/etc. thing immediately after.

Just a friendly reminder

This series had handheld, pocket devices that were as powerful and capable of doing anything a computer could do. You could check your email, connect to the internet, send messages, make phone calls, play music, operated on fold-up qwerty keyboards before converting to fully touchscreen based user interfaces, and a personal assistant who would answer your questions and help you organize everything. It had cybercrime and cyberterrorism as a genuine threat and an effective means of terrorism. It p

Blegh

So I am feeling sick but since the doctor's not in today I decided I'd try to get started by googling my symptoms and seeing what came up.   Sorry to disappoint you Google, but I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnant.

Whoa.

It is ridiculously gratifying when you try to go back to a forum you used to use a few years ago, and cannot remember your password for the life of you. But you have to keep guessing because their password reset system isn't responding for some reason - tried three times in two days, still yet to get a reset email - and you're about to give up, but try something completely random off the cuff.   AND YOU GET IT     I AM THE ONE

So yeah, can someone explain what this Pokébank thing people have been talking about is?
