Homework Help / Re: Math Survey
« on: September 05, 2009, 04:14:15 AM »
Haha, that was great. I must remember to suggest that for the joke of the day at the high school I go to... then again, since it has the word 'bar' in it, the administration will likely freak out and suspend Cole for telling that joke. (Every morning, during the announcements, this kid named Cole tells a joke of the day.)

Anyway, yeah, that was a good one.

Entertainment / Re: Book Recomendations?

I've read all the Stupid Sexy Flanders books (and I assume you have, from your awesome avatar), and you've probably read the War and Peace by Dostoyevsky series.

Another series I think you would like is the Pendragon books. They're funny and tragic at the same time. Also, try the book "Tersias the Oracle." At first it seemed like I wouldn't like it, but now it's one of my favorites (better than War and Peace by Dostoyevsky, but not quite as great as Stupid Sexy Flanders, haha).

Oh and thanks for episode 2, Novice. That vid is one of my new favorites!

I guess that's correct, so I'll ask the next question.

What is the birthdate of Hermione Jean Granger (from the Stupid Sexy Flanders series)?

First, why the hell would you try to tell time by burning a rope?


Uhm... ditto. And I'm going to guess 135.

Sorority Life (on MySpace and Facebook)
Rock Band 2
World of Warcraft (even though it's not as good anymore)

That sucks that you can't upload music. Maybe if you sent it to yourself from your computer as an attachment? Not sure how that would work. And... how did you manage to *run over* your Curve?

Writer's Block / Re: F**k it... I'm writing a poem
« on: July 26, 2009, 07:41:57 PM »
I'm really, really sorry. I was a total dumbass. If I remembered the poem, I'd post it to attempt to make up for my retard behavior. I think part of it went like this:

I want to wish you a Happy Half,
'cause you deserve a real good laugh.
Drink half of a glass of wine
(from anyone's cellar but mine)!

If I remembered the rest of it, I'd put it up. Sorry for giving a false alarm. If it helps, I feel like a total ass for doing that.

This convo went from spam to hamsters. I want a hamster, but my dog would eat *that* instead of the Skittles and neighbor dogs. (And groundhogs.)

That's another easy possibility. I, personally, don't like Mafia Wars that much, but to others it's  satisfying to level up.

You can also fix the volume in iTunes, if you have it. Just right-click a song and edit song info, then go to the last tab and you will see a slider for individual song volume. As for cutting things out of the song, you basically have two options: either go somewhere like airmp3.com or thepiratebay.org and find the song from someone who has already cut those bits out, or do like jee said above and download a program to do it yourself. I, personally, prefer Audacity, mostly because I do podcasting with my friends, but most any free audio editing software will allow you to cut audio out. Happy ringtone making! :)

The God Delusion is an awesome book. Dr. Dawkins is obviously very enthusiastic about the topic (more than I can say for a lot of authors out there), and he writes in a way that makes me interested, too. Like Cranes said, it's because of him I like science so much. I agree with HeavyJay when it comes to Kaku, though. He's never really struck me as... I'm not sure why, but the show never really appealed to me.

My personal definition of atheism, by the way, is that you believe there's no chance of a god's existence. I know it's a little vague, and you can feel free to shoot it down, ivan.

It was released in 1995, but it also was #1 when I was born. And it's not exactly my favourite song. (I would also like to ask forgiveness for my stupid post with the poem thing. My bad.)

I've heard he can be like that. Maybe something terrible happened to him as a child. Some sort of trauma?

It seems like every year on my half-birthday I end up taking a fucking quiz, usually on something I didn't study for because I was too busy reading books about things that actually matter, like Stupid Sexy Flanders, or advanced HTML and CSS.

I had a good one, but I'm a few months late. So... yeah. Not posting it.

"One Sweet Day," by Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men.

Hell.
No.

Entertainment / Re: favourite Anime/Manga
« on: July 01, 2009, 01:08:21 AM »
My top two anime are Fruits Basket and Ouran High School Host Club. Forgive me if those seem stupid. The fact that I'm a thirteen-year-old chick tends to influence these kinds of things. (I don't think they're stupid, I'm just pre-defending myself from any potential flamers.)

My favourite manga is I Hate You More Than Anything. I love how in anime and manga, the characters can be so strange and ridiculously outrageous, yet still so... awesome.

I have 1327 mp3 files (on my iPod), 43 Cassettes (locked away somewhere in a box), 1 12" LP (Elvis, baby), and 76 CDs (not ripped yet).

(btw, that was an awesome, click-inducing title)

I think that the reason people find it so addicting is that you feel great when you level up, or win a fight, but then you feel like shit when you lose a fight, or when it takes you a really long time to level up. Then, when you finally *do* level up, you feel great again, and you're motivated to play more (which takes longer in higher levels, which makes you want to hurry up).

Basically what BizB said above.

S2pid is definitely easier on the eyes, but a tee with "St00pid 2.0" would be entertaining, too. If I ever saw one, I'd buy it. And I agree, no bringing up the alleged stupidity of my- er, other people's- parents. That's not very nice.
