My boyfriend is apparently stalking my online accounts (facebook, Youtube, CIV 4) so this is a rave that he loves me that much to do so!

=D

Okay... now, someone direct me to a judge.

Yeah, FP, it was. It was also partly motivated by me half-jokingly attempting to incentivize his continued existence after he complained that he thought his stomach was bleeding after having downed a bottle of everclear.

You're in Singapore, it can't be hard to find one.

Ouch... I can't really talk about morbid bets, but that's almost a good one

EDIT: If you want another good usse for that stuff, try it in place of meths on a camping stove

I prepared for a test with the intensity of a category 5 hurricane. The actual test was a tropical depression.

You're in Singapore, it can't be hard to find one.

In Singapore, the judge finds you.

Does the Judge also do that in Soviet Russia?

There are no judges in Soviet Russia. Just commissars.

I am actually looking forward to work tomorrow.

This is both a rant and rave.

Afghan food is nice.

First cold front of the year :)

take your arguing out of the happy thread :gripe:

I now have my very own cell phone. My very first, i might add. :D

You're not out there, are you?

Nah. There's an Afghan restaurant near where I live.

What's it like?

If its anything like Uzbek food, its wonderful.

My rave: hot ham and cheese sammich :drool:

Pineapple upside-down cake one-ups your sammich.

The obvious synthesis to this is a ham and pineapple pizza.

Yes I just applied Dialectic Materialism to food. Shut up.

The universe is beautiful.

The forum! Its back on again! Hoowoo!!

I was so alone... so scared...

I got home earlier today and learned some more Korean. :D

I just had one of the most hilarious debates with a YEC I've ever seen. (Facebook chat history couldn't retrieve it sadly, but I'd be more than happy to post a recreation of it if anyone would be interested.)

These 2 hot Spanish girls was flirting with me today. Overall had a very good day despite 2 annoying midterms.

I watched Død snø it was awesome, bloody and gruesome satisfying. There's nothing quite like Nazi zombies.

That is a terrible movie.

That is a terrible movie.

No way. Nazi zombies.

But still the most terrible plot everever, it's funny because it's so bad.

But still the most terrible plot everever, it's funny because it's so bad.

Oh sure the plot was nonsensical and all the characters were insane. Especially the guy who cut his own arm off with a chainsaw and burned the stump, that was crazy. But that's what made it so great.

You people watch strange films

You people watch strange films

Some of them can be really good I recommend Låt den rätte komma in which is quite a unique vampire movie.

I have heard a lot about that one.

With unique i hope he means bad. The book was awesome and i was thrilled to see the movie. But then it sucked.

No way. Nazi zombies.

Call of Duty: World at War.

It's Friday, it's Friday! :bounce:

I looks as though I'm going to be able to get out of work three hours early tonight! :goodjob:

Facing Binary is amazing. On a related note, I get a great boom of pretentiousness by discussing my love of an incredibly obscure electronica artist.

Nacht der Untoten the movie?

The ramblings of white trash folk are actually somewhat entertaining. :crazyeye:

I :love: Amazon, it has 7 copies of Abdul Haris Nasution: A Political Biography by C.L.M Penders for US$6.00. 7 copies, for US$6.00. I can't even get 1 here, let alone for US$6.00 try US$60.

Chalk up another reason to move to America. I'm up to two: Cornell and Amazon.

To ask; do you know what part of the movie caught my interest and what kind of movie taste I have normally?

I did acid Thursday night with friends. Effing crazy. And amazing. Saw fractals everywhere, had a completely different state of mind... and ran around a golf course, at one point throwing golf balls (that my friend originally thought were diamonds) at these small stone walls on a hill imagining I was throwing grenades into pillboxes in Nazi occupied France. Felt so much energy and saw things change before my eyes.. man. LSD.

Did not know I had listened to Michelle Branch years ago...glad to know that now.

Is it true that the reverse can happen (you get bad trips, imagine bugs crawling across you skin, etc.) ?

Or have you only done it once?

That was only my second time, the first being an experience almost purely of euphoria, with minor hallucinations (the clouds had a purple aura). This time they were more vivid, but only distortions of what I saw- things changing out of proportion, colors more vibrant. I didn't see what wasn't there. I've only done it at night though, so maybe in the day, with more to see, that could change, and most certainly with a higher dose it would. A bad trip I imagine is possible then, but if you know it's just the drug and try and take it easy, possibly with help from others, that moment should pass. For instance, I went through many different feelings and states in short periods of time, some sad or bad, but not in a way that scared me, just feelings of looking inwards and not being happy with what I saw. My friend did get antsy, but that's about it.

If you answer the first question, please let it not be the toilet sex scene. Please.

@West 36: That sounds awesome. :p

What, a Nazi zombie had sex with a toilet?

:lol: Nice!

I'd love to try it. I've tried mushrooms and it was really good fun.

What, a Nazi zombie had sex with a toilet?

Nah but the girl got dragged into the toilet just after.

Finally getting the hang of doing uncertainty calculations.

If you answer the first question, please let it not be the toilet sex scene. Please.

Lol, that was just cool. :p

I mean, Nazi zombies. That's freaking hilarious.

Well it was terrible. Like that guys explanation why he had freaking machinegun on his snowmobile.

Just shaved for the first time in over a month(well, actually shaving with a razor, I haven't done since like June actually, I mean I buzzed all the hair off with a beard trimmer) so nice, forgot what my face felt like.

Now? But No Shave November is in a few days!

Exactly, so it's cheating to have unshaved hair at the beginning. ;)

Well it was terrible. Like that guys explanation why he had freaking machinegun on his snowmobile.

It was kitsch, but it was not supposed to be serious, godamit. Zombie movies are like that. Hilarious, kitschy, and fun. It was an awesome movie.

And as you mentioned the toilet sex scene thing before, I'd like to add that I happen to like very few movies - the ones I like include Once Upon A Time In The West, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Blade Runner. I like movies that can give me a kick. Just running up and saying a movie is terrible usually doesn't make it since it's meant to be idiotic. As a production, it's succesful. It has fulfilled its purpose as an awesome, non-depth zombie movie. If you disagree with me on that, I can't help you.

Then again, you can go act all snobby and call it terrible because of the style it's in; do note that my flavor, fx, represents some range of movie styles. You can choose to be narrow and say it's not your style, that that specific sort of movie is stupid. Sure, but if you don't understand a movie genre, you don't really have the ability to tell good from bad, do you? :p

Well, if you look it from that angle, it's probably awesome. But the movie still is bad, and I'm not a big fan of zombie/ splatter movies anyways.

Writing the conclusion section of a university physics lab is definitely more interesting than a high-school physics lab's.

Agreed, pretty much any writing assignment in high school is 5% interesting, 5% work, and 90% random bullcrap.

A on my last two tests.

Also, Maths is just too easy...no Further Maths offered :/

Another great weekend!

Interviewed two artists for my term paper.

Wrote the rough draft of said paper.

Went for a run in the rain. Invigorating!

Got drunk at the Irish Pub with my best friends. Ate a wonderful Reuben.

Nazi Zombies. Nacht der Untoten.

Wonderful breakfast at this awesome diner that uses only products of the farm owned by the same family who owns said diner. Very cheap, very delicious. Had another Reuben.

Went tromping around Gettysburg battlefield with my friends. An absolutely gorgeous day.

Celebrated my first year anniversary with my girlfriend.

Yes, an excellent weekend indeed.

Caught up (for the most part) with my online class . . . read a lot of history too.

Super Ulyaoth, to the rescue!

Saved some girl and her mother from being killed just before. They broke down in the middle of a highway, and their lights were going dead. We almost hit them but saw them at last second swerved away, came back behind them with flashers on so she wouldn't get rammed from behind(lol) and pushed her off the road. Then some idiot who doesn't udnerstand why people would put their emergency lights on almost hit my truck then and swerved off at the last second, he'd have definitely rammed right into her at like 80mph if we hadn't stopped there.

Also, neighbors across the street still suspiciously absent.

:lol: Nice!

I'd love to try it. I've tried mushrooms and it was really good fun.

The friend who had this connection tried shrooms just last week and thought they were awesome, they're on my to do list but are a bit expensive, so I'll just have to wait!
It was hilarious when he told me how big he felt, immediately thought Mario :lol:

Ad Block is awesome :D

I has no homework tonight. That's an extreme rarity. :D

Thanks to Opera mini on my new mobile - I can now visit CFC from anywhere.

I finished another installment of my ongoing alternate history timeline! :D

100% on my last Maths test :)

I am happy and equally envious of you.

Anyway, rave. Less work to do now.

I thought I'd missed the deadline for a lab report again, but just found out the due date has been moved to Friday.

I had my last uni exam today!!

Will only graduate in a year as I still have final year dissertation coming up, but this was the last time of having to fit heaps of information into my hurting head :)

Today is a great day for a walk. It's cool, but the sun is shining warmly. I "had" to run some errands on my university campus on this lovely fall day, and it was brilliant -- picturesque, even.

The Phils are back in the World Series, which is great, and it's against the Yankees, which is awesome, because I hate them. The interesting thing though is that where I live we get the Philly station and the NY station, both broadcasting the games, but also giving following their respective home teams, which is kind of cool!

Lol, Phillies getting swept.

I'm really knocking back the paper I'm writing tonight like it was nothing. I'm glad I don't need to pull off an all-nighter for it.

Shostakovich's Symphony No. 10 = :love:

Listening to Shostakovitch is like hearing my soul in an orchestral score.

I just made an awesome and unexpected reference to Battleship Potempkin-thanks to a certain other poster for the inspiration! I'd even completely forgotten the name of the sequence and everything until just then.

Lol, Phillies getting swept.
Uh, didn't you say this late in the game...when the Phillies were raping the Yankees?

I got a new iPod!

I just ordered the ushanka. I can't wait to use it.

Ray Comfort is doing himself a favor on "creationism vs. Darwinism"

Students can read Darwin's own explanation as to why there is no empirical evidence for his theory—that all "intermediate varieties" have disappeared—just like the Mormons' golden plates that the angel Moroni supposedly gave to Joseph Smith. There's one big difference, though, between the golden plates and the intermediate varieties. The Mormons say that only two golden plates are missing. Darwin says that millions of fossils (what he referred to as "innumerable," ibid.) are missing. After 150 years of desperate searching, the missing links are still—missing.

:goodjob:

My application has been sent...now to wait until December 15 :hide:

Additionally, I don't have to worry (or care) about UF anymore. :)

"Darwin says that millions of fossils (what he referred to as "innumerable," ibid.) are missing. After 150 years of desperate searching, the missing links are still—missing."

Well of course they're missing, the vast majority of skeletons don't fossilize! Besides, we've found plenty of new species over that time, we just can't fill every piece in the puzzle because of the number of pieces there are!

Retarded Creationism...

It's early in the morning and I'm writing strangely lucidly. I also have to go to work tomorrow and predict a rout by around 10. That's unfortunate considering that I have some important work I need to finish by Wednesday which even under normal circumstances would be a difficult proposition. I'm just hoping that the work I did tonight isn't the rollicking hunk of turd that I fear it probably is.

Whats wrong with all the others out there?

Boring, silly, ridiculous, repetetive, uncreative, lacking both emotion and connection with the viewer.

I'm a strange boy, but still like sex. I just can't enjoy things that way when I'm either laughing or not feeling anything.

See, there are three categories of porn. Awesome, Mediocre, and so bad your <insert euphamism for male genitalia> will drop to the floor instantaneously. The majority falls into the third category.

So I love my AP Psychology teacher. On a whim she decided to give us an open book test on neurology and 3 days to answer 50 multiple questions, and during the test taking it was apparent most of the class was cheating and checking each others answers and all of a sudden she yells out,"YOU GUYS!" and here I was expecting her to chastise us or something but no instead she asks"Is this poster straight?"
Oh and my AP World class is a joke too, It's great to have so much free time. <333

The previous page and a bit of this thread has proved I'm not the weirdest individual on CFC.

I am relieved.

I had for the first time in my life one of those double dream thingies. You know, where you dream something, something happens and you wake up and are like, oh it's just a dream, then something else happens and you wake up again and think the same thing except you actually are awake this time. So cliche, my dreams are supposed to be more original than that, stupid malfunctioning brain.

I was drinking fruit drinks from pitchers which made my breath all misty and cold. Then my girlfriend came over and I used my ice breath to freeze her and chuck her out the window. How's that for an awesome dream?

New York Yankees, world series champions!

That belongs in the Rants thread.

For communist anti-Americans, maybe

The only reason you care about baseball is because the local team is winning. Eventually you'll see sense and start watching football and basketball again.

On the "sure is history in here" topic, I'm working on an article I'm hoping to get academically published:
"Machine Politics as a Continuation of Tainastry Political Culture amongst Irish Americans"

Catchy title, isn't it.

For communist anti-Americans, maybe

I'm a socialist anti-American, not a communist anti-American. :p

@ PCH: Sweeeeeet.

The only reason you care about baseball is because the local team is winning. Eventually you'll see sense and start watching football and basketball again.

Only communists like basketball. Hockey is where it's at.

Sweeeeeet.
Was that directed at me or choxorm?

Edit: ACCURSED EDIT TOOL.

The article would go a lot better but apparently only one scholar ever thought that Tainistry might be an important practice.

Only communists like basketball. Hockey is where it's at.
Hockey is a Canadian sport, Canadians are communists. QED.

So. I'm finished my exams and with school forever. I think uni starts in March...so I have until then on holidays, unless I decide to take a gap year, in which case I'm on holidays until March 2011. :D

The last month has been pretty horrible, so I'm so happy that it's all over now. Just a nervous wait until results come out in December...

Btw, I google'd Tainastry and it couldn't find it. What does it mean?

I'm confused.

"Machine Politics: A Continuation of Tainastry Political Culture amongst Irish Americans"



Btw, I google'd Tainastry and it couldn't find it. What does it mean?
Tainastry was a method of political succession in Gaelic Ireland. Essentially every son, grandson, and greatgrandson of the current monarch (called the Taoiseach) was a potential heir. From this group of potential heirs, there would be a vote, and the winner of the vote would become the Tainastre, who was the successor to the Taoiseach in the event of his death.

My argument is going to be that the culture developed under this system continued into the 19th century, and is part of the reason why Irish-Americans quickly adapted to machine politics.

I'm confused.

Me too.

I think they did it on purpose. Azzaman33's post was something he usually posted after the post present after his post if I'm fully understood.

Nevertheless, it gave me a wtf look and a giggle, so props to them for assigning the posts in that order. :)

Tainastry was a method of political succession in Gaelic Ireland. Essentially every son, grandson, and greatgrandson of the current monarch (called the Taoiseach) was a potential heir. From this group of potential heirs, there would be a vote, and the winner of the vote would become the Tainastre, who was the successor to the Taoiseach in the event of his death.

My argument is going to be that the culture developed under this system continued into the 19th century, and is part of the reason why Irish-Americans quickly adapted to machine politics.
Ahh that makes sense.

We still use the word - our Prime Minister is known as the Taoiseach, his deputy is known as the Tánaiste.

Yes, I know. It's made research a bit hard. Using JSTOR is out because it has nearly infinite results for articles about the modern Tanaiste, but almost nothing on the historical practice.

I'm confused.
Do you know what a cock is?

Coke tastes good.

Your avatar fits amazingly well with this post in the context. :lol:

A male chicken?

I think a male chicken would taste better.

It does.

That still doesn't diminish the embarrassment of not knowing what a cock is. You live an English speaking country!!

'Cock tease' takes on a whole new meaning now.

I'm now on Lithium. An element! And it's been ionized! How awesome is that?!

I got a new keyboard. It pretty good even if it was one of the cheaper ones. It even has more hotkeys than my last one. The only complaint I have with is the cable doesn't reach very far. This has forced me to adapt by putting it on the desk proper instead of the keyboard tray. This has the added bonus of leaving that tray open for homework, so I guess it was a blessing in disguise.

I saw that Robert Service's biography of Lev Trotsky is finally out. Excellent.

I won my databases exam.

And cock still tastes good.

Let's keep it clean, folks.

Cock Roosters scare me :(

Got home early, good weather, and ready to do work. Not even the dumb comments in this thread can affect my good mood.

All work and no play make SS-18 ICBM a dull boy. Relax a little.

There's a point when repetition stops being funny. Generally, I'd say that's when a mod appears.

I wasnt talking about that. I just skim over nonsense posts. You seem all too serious and annoyed lately. Though internet doesnt carry emotions very well so I could be (and probably am) wrong.

Rave: Spartacus (with Kirk Douglas) is on :) I love these old sword and sandal flicks.

Not really annoyance. It's more like "Come on guys, really?"

This book on China and the Cold War is simply awesome :D

I GOT {delicious} NOODLES! :D Yay!

Had a fun after-work party after work last night. My boss is selling the business, and settlement is on Monday, so it was finally a chance for her (a 50ish year old small Chinese lady) to try all those nice looking drinks in the bar. It made the party quite enjoyable.

Winner!
