RANDOM RANTS XLVI: Slightly More Than a Month-ly Edition #1

[NickyJ]

• You order food
• they make food
• You pay for food and food is transferred to you (either go to the drive-thru (that does not, btw, imply a fast food place) to pick up your to-go order or they deliver it)
• You eat food

Am I missing anything in there?

You forgot the part where they leave the food lying on the counter for half an hour before bringing it to you. (I still hate you, Sonic. Your name is an insult to the word.)

not to be mean to people, but a lot of folks need to realise love at first hindsight is what happens and not love at first sight. People say they're in love all the time but people (whether yourself, or the person/people you are in love with) change over even relatively short periods of time and are slightly different than the way you perceive them--or even are drastically different-- as well as the fact that intimacy takes a long time to actually be complete and understand a person fully.

You can't just be in love with someone immediately and I often tire of people/moves/tv/whatever complaining/depicting/fantasizing/romanticizing/whatever about the nonreal phenomenon of love at first sight.

Wikipedia can be your friend.

Degenerative arthritis is another term for it. Cartilage wears down. I have it in my right knee.

I knew that Australia was a city. Wikipedia is damn wrong.

Words cannot describe my feelings about my own inability to successfully perform any sort of believable, complex photomanipulation whatsoever. But the following (poorly edited, obviously) image can.

I cannot wait until I'm done with stupid high school. It is incredebly difficult for me to focus on doing work that doesnt interest me, or will not help mein the future whatsoever. It's taking time away from more important classes that relates to what I'll need, my own independent stuff that will help me in the future, and just plain old relaxing time. I end up not doing the things I want to do because I know I still have a looming assignment, but, instead of doing it I just do random stupid distracting things and get almost nothing done at all.

Not sure if rant or rave:

I made an A on a Corporate Finance test but the rest of the class pretty much bombed it. The rave is I got the A on it and on the first test. The rant is that now the professor is radically changing the course format to better suit the students. Since I'm doing so well as things are, I am scared of such radical change. :\

I guess the change is also a rave in that the professor obviously cares about helping his students learn and succeed. I just like things they way they are...

The professor is obviously not going to make it any harder. I'd say good job, and you caught a lucky break.

Ouch! Painful!

I feel for you, aimee.

Something's wrong with my PC. I think I might have it figured. But every time my PC has some technical issues that prevents me from using it for several days and forces me to use my (hand me down) laptop kind of irritates me a bit.

Then again I can't really use my PC that much because my mom's camping in my room more or less permanently because she's been having some serious health issues and sleeping in her old room isn't a possibility, so me using my PC when my poor mother around will not only be awkward no matter what I'm doing no matter how innocent it is, but also because the loud noises will bother her. I mean not that I'm angry at that, I don't want to make my mom feel uncomfortable, her needs go first, but it's a little sad or something.

You mother fu$%&r

I'm half a mind to hop on a Quantus flight, find you and punch you in the face.

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

You mother fu$%&r

You are entirely correct. It may be 3.00am but I have Alan Carr's book in my hand as we speak, half a pack of trusty Winfield Blues and the mindset to fix things.

And for the record, 'twas a mighty weekend!

QANTAS

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Hahaha I stand corrected. Good luck, you'll be fine I'm sure.

 

[Kennigit]

I made a great P NP joke on someone's post of facebook that went completely unappreciated!

[spoiler="I don't care if others thinks it is unfunny]
basically someone linked to a cooking/recipe site and my friend commented "looks p good" [meaning pretty good but lazy to type]

I added "looks np good as well [link to p v np]" since recipes are totally np problems

explanation: can easily verify if a recipe tastes good (np), but question is can an algorithm come up with a recipe that is tasty in polynomial time (p)

but the people involved would know/gather p vs np.[/spoiler]

One of my drone group partners is going all control-freak on us. I hate dealing with that, particularly when they're wrong but won't let it effing go.

Why deal with it? Unleash that famous temper of yours!
