RANDOM RANTS XXV: Put a Smile On

The kitchen smells like rotting meat. Im pretty much confined to the bedroom for the time being
 
So I decided on my physics E+M test to leave an answer as an integral instead of, you know, solving the integral.

Because that would require work, and being lazy on a test is the BEST time to be lazy.

But on a bright note, the grader for that problem didn't actually add my points from the first part of the problem. I'm guarenteed to go from an 80 -> 85 now, and I might as well ask about things they marked wrong (they took off points on the equations I wrote FROM THE EQUATION SHEET that ARE THE CORRECT FORMULAS for the problem. I have it right except I didn't write evaluate the integral). And by evaluate I mean that the question is all unknowns, but you're supposed to evaluate the integral w/ the unknowns in it.

So maybe ~88 if I complain right. Still, considering I should have had a 100% and I threw away points for being lazy. Not even for making mistakes, but for being lazy :(.
 
Sigh...

Yesterday when I was going to sleep, I expected this day to go smoothly. I'd school end at 11 am, go buy a new lock while my friends were in their French class. Then once they'd finish we'd hit the gym and do some nice, heavy workouts to compensate for the lost wrestling practice tomorrow and then some. After that, I'd head back home and stop by the local barbershop to get a quick hair-shaving.


What actually happened? Well, it began with me forgetting to pack my gym-shoes. I realised it once I had already reached my the train-station so I called my friend (who lives way closer to our school) and asked him if he could bring some shoes to school for me to borrow. He said sure. That's fine but I'd prefer my own shoes.

Then, I got to school. Apparently, the whole class had misunderstood how the project that we've been doing the last 2 weeks. So we had to correct that and redo a big part of our work. So instead of ending at 11 and chillin', I left the school at 17:30. If it weren't for the fact that the deadline was 17 and that they were about to close school down, I don't doubt that I would've been leaving that place at 18:30! In fact, we even missed the deadline by 15 mins, and we produced an awful discussion part.

Apart from us turning in a crappy work, what does this mean? Well, I am still lockless and my hair remains untouched. I also had to jug around my big, heavy (I put my normal school-bag into my sports-bag to ease things, making it very heavy), awkward and all around clumsy sports-bag through the Stockholm metro at rush hour times to, from and inside of school (which happens to be placed at the complete other side of Stockholm for NO REASON AT ALL.
 
I'm friggin' done with my parents not flushing.

Sure, when it's yellow, let it mellow, as long as it doesn't smell, a little gross, but nothing to flip about. But there really is no excuse for not flushing if you need to crap. I don't care if it's clogged, YOU DO WHAT EVERY OTHER GODDAMN NORMAL PERSON IN THE WORLD DOES AND UNCLOG IT. EVERYONE DOES IT. Why? Because I sure as hell don't want to see it, the parent that didn't flush doesn't want to see it, our family doesn't want to see it, my friends don't want to see it, their friends don't want to see it, you guys don't want to see it, NOBODY WANTS TO GODDAMN SEE A FULL TOILET. It's disgusting, it's unhygienic, it's abnormal, and it belongs in the goddamn sewer, not sitting in the toilet bowl untouched for hours because you were too damn lazy to fix it.
 
I just saw the new Clash of the Titans film. They utterly butchered the original myth, though with a couple of nice touches such as Cassiopeia's arrogance and Medusa's fall from grace, but what was with the whole "We hate the Gods! Let's rebel against them!" plot? That sucked, royally.

If you live in Raleigh, I'm pretty sure I know where you go to school. :p

No... Not Raleigh. I live maybe an hour and a half away from it. :p

What's the health-science school in Raleigh called? Is it funded by Bill and Melinda Gates, because ours is.

Wellll, if Civplayah happened to go to the school I'm thinking he goes to, then we can talk about the various mutual friends that we have.

Oh, so you go there? :)

It's called Southeast, and I don't know who it's funded by.

Nahh, I don't, just most of my friends go either there or Athens. Not that I mind, of course, I love my school. :p

You don't understand American action films, do you? They come with instructions:
1. Please leave your brain at the door.
2. Please don't think about the film later.
3. Buy the video game.
 
Apparently not, Ajidica. That said, half of the high-profile cast were British or Irish. Why do we volunteer for such ritual humiliation?

Unfortunately for Pablo, when he awoke from his siesta, and turned on his pickup, a rather beat-up 1980s Ford F150, he noticed that the engine didn't so swell when he started it up. So he called his amigo, Rodrigo, to help him get the pickup truck to the friendly, local mechanic in Annandale. But that is quite a distance from where he was in Centreville; about fifteen miles. So Rodrigo arrived around 7:30 pm, and he hopped into Pablo's pickup. The grizzly engine burped as Pablo turned onto the local two-lane road. But as he turned onto Braddock Road, that's when his engine started to preform less well. The engine started skipping and it felt like to Rodrigo that the engine was losing cylinders. But Pablo was determined to get to the auto-repair shop, even though they only made half a mile's worth of progress. But the duo quickly found out that there were still plenty of cars, even though it was just past rush hour.
"Malédiction!" Pablo yelled.
"Aye amigo. This trip is going to have mucho problems," replied Rodrigo.
The spurting engine was still barely working when they got to George Mason University, but the traffic remained thick as they duo were barely making the speed limit in the left lane.

We now join madviking, in his slick 2008 Volkswagen Rabbit, commuting to swim practice, also driving on Braddock Road. He pulled up behind Pablo's pickup truck at a red light near the university. At first apathetic to what car was in front of his, as soon as the light turned green, the pickup in front of him was barely gaining speed. "Hmm. It must be the steepness and the fact that the pickup in front of me must have absolutely no horsepower."
As the pickup truck crawled up the incline, madviking grew increasingly impatient with the truck in front of him.
"OK, something's totally not right here. Even if it were beat-up and from the 80s, it shouldn't be going that slow..."
When the truck stopped crawling, madviking started honking at the pickup, hoping they were not paying attention or something. But when the occupants of the pickup truck exited the truck, during rush hour, and in the left lane, madviking started yelling obscene words at the two middle aged Hispanic men who were inside the pickup. Unfortunately for madviking, the right lane was already passing him by, making it impossible to switch lanes. madviking swore some more. After a few minutes, the green light reverted to being red light. madviking finally got a break in the traffic of the right lane and was finally, after four minutes, was able to go around the stalled pickup truck.
madviking was not happy from then on, especially when he found his glasses busted after practice somehow.
And he was especially unhappy coming home on Braddock Road when people driving in Priuses and/or talking on their cell phones would go five miles an hour under the speed limit in the left lane. madviking by now had used almost every imaginable swear (all of them expect his bumper).
Now, at 10:50 pm, madviking writes the longest rant in the rants thread in a while.
