And cause the Ottomans had giant siege cannons.
 
There's a reason the Byzantine Empire survived that long. They had to adapt to new situations very quickly and turn their enemies against each other. In the end, they did not fall due to their failure to adapt but due to treachery and sheer firepower.

well... ouch. its not every day you find out that modern intelligence is inferior to ancient ones.

guess i learned something new about Byzantium, thank you :)

Why couldn't they just block the Dardanelles?

they tried. a timely earthquake changed all that.
 
Rant 1: OH GOD WHY AM I SO BORED?

I'm at that point of summer vacation where I've realized that I just wasted half of it doing absolutely nothing, and are now worrying that I'm going to do the same from the rest of it.

It's like a mini mid-life crisis and it SUCKS.

Rant 2: I have to wait another week before I get to see Inception :mad:

isn't that the point? to relax?
 
Well yeah, but it's gotten to the point in which relaxing is boring. I feel like I'm just burning time which could be spent doing so much more. And it's tearing me up inside.

I now have approximately 7 hours of my 3 weeks+ winter break remaining in which I've done absolutely nothing constructive and only saw RL friends twice.

At least I got good slee... oh wait, no, the World Cup ensured that wasn't the case.

Replace twice with once and that's my past month.

And, in addition to that, my timetable has two lectures that are constantly appearing and disappearing on me, and the best part is they're both tomorrow, or would be if they hadn't disappeared.
 
Timetable is still not settled, first lecture is either in just under 12 hours or just under 17 hours. I do not want to spend 90 minutes getting to uni only to find the lecture isn't on then wait around for 5 hours...
 
As predicted the coffee ended up as light bondage and assorted nasties. Now things are weird. Her friend is going to kill me. I feel like Barney with Robin.
 
I really don't understand why a ticket inspector would feel the need to wake you to check your ticket at both 4:15am and 7:30am, when it was already checked at 1am.

As a result, I'm ridiculously tired, so much so that I almost fell asleep on the U-Bahn this evening, which could've ended badly.

you should have taken an alternative route.
 
You lazy git! Don't stay up all night next time :P
