  1. Apparently one of the Advanced Placement European History teachers shows that movie after the AP test (a cumulative national test that most AP teachers will use as a substitute for their own final exam) to kill time until summer. He's pretty cool.

     

    Also, Keanu Reeves is awesome in the most bizarrely unexpected and nearly ironic way.

  2. My problem is that I don't find the super-spammy and otherwise über-noobish stuff very funny. It's just painful to read, really. I prefer posts that have an element of schadenfreude in the form of someone actually trying to be truly taken seriously on a potentially interesting topic and--of course--failing spectacularly at it.

  3. ?

     

    The difference between sociopathy and psychopathy is generally held to just be based on the source of the disorder, sociopathy being mostly social causation and psychopathy being mostly hereditary causes. My guess is that you're using sociopathy to refer to antisocial personality disorder specifically, one contested definition.

     

    If anything, based on David T. Lykken's ideas, the psychopath should feel pure apathy due to a disposition to cortical under-arousal.

     

    Then again, this is all just a matter of conflicting theories, so whatever works for you is probably best for the art.

  4. Um, what's with the Derpy controversy in the first place? I'm not a big fan of her voice and think her character is a little too destructive, but otherwise she doesn't seem bad.

     

    Supposedly, the word "derp(y)" is ableist against those who have mental disabilities (disregarding the fact that it was really just used to describe her eyes). People complained that this made the character offensive, and you probably know the rest.

  5. People still use them, but they aren't as popular. They're sort of like a dead meme (e.g., arrow-to-the-knee jokes): You still see them, but they're rare and not "hip." (The word "hip," by the way, is another example of this phenomenon.)

     

    Also, I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who thought about the inflation of the Weimar Republic's Mark.
