    Going to a party Friday night, looking forward to that. Also, no school on Monday. We'll be celebrating this fact by getting wasted on Sunday night. Also, French test tomorrow. Blugh.
  2. What the hell, do you have a paper to write every single day? I get annoyed by rain in the morning. I bike to school, and the combination of cold, being tired and having rain fall on your face, making your pants incredibly wet just annoys the hell out of me.

    Awesome story, Eggs. I'd like to add that it's a myth that touching a baby bird will scare its parents away though. Either way, good job :)
  4. Wolfram Alpha gives 26. I got 26 as well. Then I just miscounted the 2s. Actually, you probably counted them right but missed the minus at the second to last one.
  5. I got 26. Edit: too late.

    Ah, everything makes sense now :razz: I've got a running test in PE tomorrow, not looking forward to it. Went running last night and tonight to warm up a bit, and I have a feeling the test won't go so well.

    So let me get this straight. You bought a soldering iron to light cigarettes with, but you don't have any cigarettes to light? Then why buy the soldering iron in the first place?
  8. Distracted replied to Leoo's topic in Off-Topic
    Wait, what? What? What's wrong with a lighter? Why would you use a soldering iron to smoke? -no refills necessary -less cost over time due to the above -no butane inhalation -no butane taste -can be used for soldering -could be used to vaporize rather than combust Did I mention no butane taste? Must be impractical to carry around all the time though?

  11. Guys, this isn't real. Well, it is real, but it's not a Hollywood production. It doesn't have "the executive producers of Sherlock Holmes" on board, it's a low-budget trailer made by this person. Hell, the only result for Utoya Island movie is this trailer: no news articles, no IMDb page. This is the 'director', this is his company. EDIT: The same company also made OIL SPILL (2011). The trailer (released in the summer of 2010) isn't even on Youtube anymore. In other words, this is purely a publicity stunt.
  12. [bleep]ing city buses, at least half of them seem to believe they have the right of way all the time. I almost got run over by one today on my bike. To add to that; people who seem to think the only reason there is to drink alcohol is to get completely wasted.
  13. Also, Hitler only had one testicle.
  14. I can prepare exactly two meals, both of them pasta dishes. I have a feeling I'll get bored of my own cooking pretty quickly. Also, I think I've forgotten how to make an omelet.

    Wow, I remember you complaining about that over a month ago. About time :) I just took a freezing cold shower. Makes you hurry the hell up, the mirrors don't get fogged up, everything feels nice and warm afterwards and it gives you a kick once you get used to the cold water.
  16. I borrowed two books from the library today: Kafka's The Castle and Mulisch' the Discovery of Heaven, both in Dutch. I'm also gonna borrow a book called "We" from a friend of mine, it's a disgusting book, from what I've heard. In other words, I'm looking forward to reading it :P The best part? We was on a list of books I could read for my Dutch class.

    Are you sure it wasn't just someone that accidentally stepped on the cat's paw? It sounds very far-fetched that someone would pick up a cat and then have it lay still while smashing its paw with a hammer. Whatever it was, best of luck.
  18. Of course he'll appeal to authority, he's explaining the Catholic doctrine. If that's unacceptable behavior in a debate, then I don't know what the hell is meant to be acceptable. The argument from complexity is about intelligent design, it has nothing to do with what he said. And I don't see how what he's saying is a sharpshooter fallacy, since he said all that's written in the Bible is meant to help us attain eternal life. He didn't point at one verse and claim that's what the Bible's all about. Also, obfuscator already explained where the straw man fallacy was on the previous page: Nice straw man. Part of the reason I've stayed away from the thread thus far.... I didn't intend to use any straw man fallacies, could you point it out for me? You made up an imaginary point to argue to, that's the point of a straw man. He was talking about church doctrine - and instead of actually debating that you switched to a preferable point to argue - the existence of heaven or hell.

    I'm not really sure. For as long as I can remember I've required very little sleep to still be able to function during the day. I can do just fine off of 2-4 hours of sleep. When I was in school I'd stay up until 4-5 a.m. every night playing RS then I'd wake up at 7:30-8 a.m. and be wide awake all day at school. I guess after years of doing that I've just become used to functioning on little to no sleep at all. One thing that helps though is staying active during the day after not sleeping all night. If you feel even the tiniest bit tired then you need to get up and do something. It doesn't take much time for you to fall asleep if you're just lying in bed watching tv or playing a video game. That used to be my biggest mistake when going for sleep deprevation halucinations. I'd be fine all night, then around 10 a.m.-noon I'd lay down in bed and turn on the tv. Within minutes of finding a show to watch I'd be fast asleep and my goal of halucinating would be set back to the start. Some people have a gene that allows them to be able to function on half the sleep a normal person needs.
  20. When people post inside jokes on Facebook. No one will understand what the hell's going on except for the few people that are in on the joke, so it seems like it's just a way of showing the world that "hey, look how cool we are, we have inside jokes!" I'll admit to doing this very occasionally, but I've got people on my friend's list that do this constantly...

    ...Did you not lock it? Of course I locked it.

    Motherf... My bike got stolen today. It's the third time it's happened, but it's still [bleep]ing frustrating...
  23. Unless your birth date information is wrong, the WTC bombing happened two years before you were born. WTC Bombing: 1993 Two planes flying into the WTC towers: 2001 Details, details.
  24. I was 6 at the time of the bombings too. I remember seeing the footage on the news, and just switching over to Cartoon Network to watch Ed, Edd 'n Eddy. Yeah...
