Distracted Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 The maths exam went horrible, otherwise had a pretty good day. Finally got to go to town hall to request my driver's license, I passed my practical exam last Friday. Then spent time chilling with friends for most of the afternoon and evening. Tomorrow one of my best friends and I are doing a presentation on the subject of our senior paper. Basically, every senior in our school has to write a paper about a certain subject together with a partner they choose themselves. Our subject is 'The history of hip-hop', so we spent some time working on that presentation. After that presentation it's almost three weeks of holidays for me, of which one week will be spent snowboarding in the French Alps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalphite Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Just got out of acing a programming exam, but aside from that today hasn't really been too eventful. Oh, and the new Fall Out Boy song that came out today was disappointing, but the new Wonder Years song is amazing enough to make up for it tenfold.

Omar Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 You can drink anything strait if you like. If you could get pure Ethanol, which you can't, it wouldn't kill you, though your mouth might be in some agonoy. Still, you can achieve the same effect by gulping down about 2 and a half shots of vodka in one go. I think if you tried to boil the ethanol out of vodka, you could probably get about a 90% solution, maybe a bit better. It would taste closer to what ethanol actually tastes like as well, as you'd have less of the distilled water taste mixed in (water has a pretty gross flavor when distilled, the ethanol is quite frankly improving it). A word of caution for anyone who wants to try it. Vodka is flammable at a little over 25C, while it boils just bellow 80, so you don't want any ignition sources near by. Your resulting 90% some odd concentrated ethanol will be flammable at room temperature (17C), and it burns with a nearly clear flame that is invisible in daylight. I think 95% is the highest concentration you can get that is fit for human consumption. I remember that distillation only get's you to about the mid 90's, and to go further you need to use chemicals, and the chemicals used are quite toxic (think eating mothballs). And yeah, I didn't realize there was such a strong love of booze here.You can buy 94% alcohol at the Société des Alcools du Québec. It's just called Alcool, and it comes around to being about 78% more ethanol per dollar than Smirnoff vodka, which makes it pretty much optimal for jungle juice. There's always Everclear, although getting your hands on that can be a little difficult in most places. Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you.

Oh, and the new Fall Out Boy song that came out today was disappointing, but the new Wonder Years song is amazing enough to make up for it tenfold. Did you catch the album leak for the new The Story So Far album? It's phenomenal. I'll have to look up the new FOB song, last I heard was that iffy one with 2Chainz. Today was passover. My grandmom told an adorable story about how she met my granddad. Also I flunked a philosophy exam hardcore.But back to the cute story:She's from NY, graduating in a semester at the age of 16. She's in Richmond visiting her cousin, looking for sponsors to help her go to art school. My granddad lives and Richmond and caught a week of leave before shipping off to Korea (right between WWII and the Korean war). He was about 20. Grandmom's cousin suggests they go to a new year's ball, but they needed to find her a date, so her cousin calls up some random guy from the local school and they go together. He ends up bailing on her, but my granddad was there because Richmond Virginia isn't a huge place, and he knew nearly everyone. He sees her alone and kisses her for new years. He gets a call the next day that his orders to ship out get canceled, so he calls up my grandmom and asks her out on a date. He introduces her to his parents, finds out she's only 16, nearly passes out. But they've been together ever since. They got married in 1950. Neither of them really had any reason to meet, but they did, and it was adorable. I love stories like that. Quote Quote Anyone who likes tacos is incapable of logic.

I'll have to look up the new FOB song, last I heard was that iffy one with 2Chainz. I haven't listened to the new The Story So Far album yet, I can't pirate things when I'm up at school and I like to hold off downloading things until higher quality rips come out anyways. It finally comes out today though so I'm sure I'll be all over it on Spotify today though, haha. And the Fall Out Boy song is called "The Phoenix". The verses are well done with some Thnks Fr th Mmrs-esque strings parts and some fantastic vocal work, but the chorus and lyrics are just cringeworthy. I personally liked the last single quite a bit but I'm hoping this new song isn't indicative of the whole thing's quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champion Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 The new TSSF album is awesome. I listened the HELL out of Under Soil and Dirt, I listened to basically nothing but that for a few good months. The new album doesn't quite match up to USAD for me, but it still gets better with each listen. 'The Glass' and 'Things I Can't Change' are great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid I'll be disappointed by their next album, but I suppose anything is better than Folie-a-Deux Quote Quote Anyone who likes tacos is incapable of logic.

Estonian dude Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Today, gonna perform with an American choir in a church here. And I am quite dead and my voice is off, cause I have had really active last few days and not nearly enough sleep. I fell asleep wih my clothes on last night... So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randox Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Briefly, last night as I was going to sleep I opened my eyes to see that my bed sliding across my room, feet first, into my closet. I decided that awake, sleeping, or hallucinating this probably wasn't the prelude to anything I wanted to be a part of. I think it's the first time I have ever dreamed a fully realistic version of my surroundings too, since my dream world was a dead on replica of the wall I was facing, and for bonus points, I could still hear my phone running a family guy episode to fall asleep too. Not being a particularly awesome experience, I decided to wake back up. After a quick drink of water, I figured I would give the whole sleeping thing another go, only to have the exact same thing happen. This time I am quite worried, because I already accidentally planted a couple unpleasant ideas in my head, and I guess it had a bit more of an ominous feeling to it. Specifically, I suddenly became very determined to not turn around because I can almost guarantee there would have been something/someone standing right over me, or some other unpleasant setup about not being as alone as I'd like, and I just really wanted to wake back up before any dream senses could determine that I was in anything but an empty bedroom with a surprisingly mobile bed. Still, kind of a waste of a lucid opportunity. If it happens again, I hope I can chill out and see if I can get a dream going. I don't normally have a chance to be lucid from the start, partly because methods for doing that are a really good way to go through hypnagogia, which I'd like to avoid as much as possible. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I never did get back to sleep, though my memory of the night is now pretty weak and time in general is just flying by for some reason, so I might have just not noticed. All I know is I am now very tired and the day is really still starting and that sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star. Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thought it would be a great idea to cut through the park on the way home today. Something in my head said walking on snow is easier than ice. Yeah, kinda forgot the snow was as high as my knees and had a very eventful trek uphill. I had to resort to crawling which was pretty funny. I think the lack of footprints should have alerted me that this was a bad idea. ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTanT Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Last night I had a very lucid nightmare in which I was hallucinating that there were dead bodies and dismembered cats all around me. I was also running extremely late for college and had missed three classes. Out of the two, the second upset dream-me far more.Like I was panicking over the classes and just vaguely annoyed at the fact that my house was covered in gore. In other news I have two sparring tournaments coming up and I'm pretty excited. The only difference between Hitler and the man next door who comes home and beats his kids every day is circumstance. The intent is the same-- to harm others.[hide=Tifers say the darndest things]I told her there was a secret method to doing it - and there is - but my once nimble and agile fingers were unable to perform because I was under the influence.I would laugh, not hate.

Ginger_Warrior Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Does the "it's not the government's business" argument fall flat, when you also argue in the separation of church and state as a founding principle on which the declaration of independence for your nation was made? It just seems strange you would argue that religion has no place in government affairs and the law, and then use objections from mostly religious organisations to prevent free marriage for homosexual couples. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesset Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Pretty sure a couple of my friends hooked up last night. Not an interesting story in and of itself, but for some reason she might have decided to lie about it. Her stuff was still here when I went to class at 11:00 today, and she told her roommate that she skipped her first two classes this morning, but apparently another person saw her walking to class this morning at 10:00. This should be interesting. My skin is finally getting softI'll scrub until the damn thing comes off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpgGamer Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I hope to join the gay marriage discussion, but rather continue it on a separate thread for continuity sake. Briefly, last night as I was going to sleep I opened my eyes to see that my bed sliding across my room, feet first, into my closet. I decided that awake, sleeping, or hallucinating this probably wasn't the prelude to anything I wanted to be a part of.

Do you ever feel a dark clouded shadow of a woman standing on your chest? it's actually super common. Look into it. Today...today today...just crazy. Stressing over tons of stuff, so many things to pack, think, do and complete. I am all over the place right now. I'm being initiated into a rave society on saturday, i'm trying to do my taxes, I'm being bombarded with electro house, I couldn't find my damn Erich Fromm book (psychoanalysis&religion) and I am SO behind on my projects. Then my trans friend called me to talk about her new shoes for like 20 minutes. GAHHH so many things. Quote Quote Anyone who likes tacos is incapable of logic.
