We are running out of Helium in 2045http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium#Applications
One of these days I'm going to remember that coffee on an empty stomach isn't a great idea BEFORE I drink the cup.
Ah, it'll be alright guys.
Also, my Anno 1404 install is stopping to function correctly.Damn you, piracy! You've let me down again!
>taking a piss>feel something on my leg>HOLY SHIT THAT LOOKS LIKE A HUGE SPIDER AND IT'S ON MY LEGIt turned out it was harmless and probably didn't even want to be there, but it scared the hell out of me.
>>268062Good! I'm sick of these "noble gases" hobnobbing around, acting like they're better than the rest of us elements!
SO YEAH I've basically cut off all communication with Jess. Now it's an issue of meeting new people and getting out of my damn hive more often...
I'll be dead by then.
But how will we make funny voices NOW?!
>>268077Your bitch best friend?
Traffic jam in China enters 9th day, spans hundreds of kilometershttp://china.globaltimes.cn/society/2010-08/566070.htmlThis is what happens when you don't have traffic lights
>>268081BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>268080Yeah that one.
>Outside my apartment door there is the sounds of young nubile college girls laughing and cavorting in the hallways.>W... what do?
>>268088Offer them candy and puppies.
>>268090You fool! I have neither!
>>2680881. Open door.2. Yell "shut up or have sex with me".3. Drop trou and show them your manhood.They will either be awed and you will have sex, or they will be embarrass and shut up.Or take pictures of your manhood and giggle about it like idiots.Damn, I never got that pic back.
>>268088I live right by the cheap university in the city, so right now the park around me is filled with hipsters, hipsters everywhere.
>>268092I didn't say give it to them.
Wow, /r9k/ puts a lot of stock in that myers-briggs nonsense.
Fffffffffuck back to school. Why can't I work somewhere that isn't retail that specializes in school supplies.Gonna break so many necks.
>>268097"Hey I have candies and puppies in my dark basement, come see!"There are no puppiesThere are no candiesThere is only rape

>>268102Looks kinda like "Monster Hunter: the Movie."I can dig it.
I forgot the names of everyone I met at orientation. All the same, only a few of them were interesting.>>268077You and me both. The problem is, I only make friends with people I find interesting (which is hardly anyone), I'm not very interesting myself (hurr durr), and socializing wears me the fuck out.>>268099I don't know what people have against that test. They tell you that it depends wholly on mood and outlook, and that it's expected to change throughout your life.>>268102Neerrrrrrrd.
>>268099>myers-briggs>nonsenseAw. Cute.
>>268106>>268107Does it help you understand if I consider everything nonsense?

Oh hey I got responses on my posted link. Red: The video game and animation industries are both absolutely frightening and incredibly awesome in so many respects. You have to love what you do but dear lord you are never being paid for the work you do. It makes me sad panda. So much respect for you guys. I hope I didn't suggest that this kind of stuff only happens in Science, it's just what I'm most familiar with.Some Anon: Don't get me wrong, I know how incredibly lucky I am to be where I am. It just makes me laugh to think about the huge differences between the expectations of people based on their jobs. "You're not human. I didn't hire you so you can act like one." Like I said, everydayimhustlin. I'm actually itching to get back into lab, but I have family here and I kinda care about them and stuff.
Oh me.
started school again... I've forgotten how "vanilla" most people are.I don't thin their stupid but I think most of them would bore me and I would bore most of them.
>>268184>I don't thin their stupid
>>268062I did not know that and now I am depressed.
>beep beep beep>ice cream music>incoherent rambling
My throat is sore again!And, why is it that people, despite all logic, keep having feelings for someone they should not have feelings for at all? Why is there still attachment issues when the other person doesn't even remember them?WHY ARE HUMANS SO DUMB
Fuck it, I'm gonna grow my hair out again.

http://gawker.com/5620671/the-walking-dead-zombies-upon-zombies-week-after-weekOh my fucking god. I hadn't seen this yet and for some reason, these zombies scare the piss out of me. Do want and do not want at the same time D:(this mac I'm typing on has such a squishy space bar and it's making me horribly away of how often I hit space when I type what the fuck)
>eating tacos while browsing site>get hot sauce on my phoneI deserved that
There's a girl in my typography class (and also my history of animation class) who is exactly like Amber Volakis from House, except fatter and without the redeeming quality of "Dates Wilson." She's even got red hair!Now if only she'd die in a bus crash.
Goodnight, Sweet Prince
My Biochem teacher looks EXACTLY like Gordon Freeman. He has the build, the hair, the goatee, the glasses, the face, all he's missing is the crowbar and he'd be ready to kill some headcrabs.
Why is this so catchy.
I have far, far too many things to >greentext, so I'm going to sum them all up with one reaction face chosen entirely at random.
>>268478What I love are all the covers that song has spawned.
Also, why is helium superimposed on the Dreamcast logo?
Quick question. I've seen talk recently about how California is within a year of decriminalizing marijuana, and that once that happens a bunch of other states are ready to fall in line.My question is, isn't marijuana's legality determined by a federal agency? I mean, I know states technically have the ability to overrule federal regulations, but isn't that a last resort of the "they'll cut off all federal monetary and service aid if we do this" variety?
>>268494I think it means you can still be arrested by federal agents, but local cops don't care.
This weekend my mom told me a story about my own life that I didn't know. A grade school bro of mine, Greg, had talked to her recently about the old times. I hated the old times, but I digress.I wasn't all that popular in grade and middle school. I had friends but I annoyed them and I knew it. I was an awkward kid - didn't shuttup and always needed to prove he knew everything, sometimes about stuff I didn't know anything about. (implying much has changed hawhaw) I'd try to tell jokes out when I was nervous and they'd usually flop. I didn't want to be like that; I just didn't know how to change. I got a lot of flack from all my classmates and I hated my liiiiiife. Hell, I was even voted in a class-wide poll to be the least dateable guy in the class, after a short bus kid. I was less desirable than the short bus kid. Jesus...So Greg had told my mom this story from the old days. My former best friend from grade school had turned on me at some point and would only hang out with me to use me for school projects. One time we had a field trip to a high school play. Before we had gotten to our seats, my former best friend had gathered the rest of the guy classmates except me and told them not to sit near me. (SEAT'S TAKEN.) Now let me tell you something. Before I heard this story, I could have sworn that all of them were sick of me. I was obnoxious and even I didn't have the patience for myself. Before my mom said anything else, all at once, I remembered that moment. All the guys, my teammates from basketball and soccer, my gaming buddies, had run over to me for some reason to high five me before we entered the hall. I didn't understand why they were so excited, but we sat together for the play and man was I happy to see them.All this time since 8th grade, I've avoided talking to them or hanging out with them in San Francisco because I thought they were still upset with me. Jesus, I didn't know; those guys were my first real friends and I didn't even really know. I almost cried bricks when she told me. I felt 11 all over again.Hope that didn't bore you or something. Polite sage for personal business. Not sure what to do with that story, but it meant a lot so I thought I'd share.
>>268494>isn't immigration legaly determined by a federal agency?lolFederal government holds no power over states, they can always threaten to secede over an issue
>>268511>state secession.I would not recommend it.

What the fuck, you Amazon seller motherfucker, I ordered like new condition on this DVD, it's scratched to shit, and you don't give a way of contacting you since you don't have a 'storefront'.
Y'know what I don't get? Why does the Bamboo Bottle-- a product made of "nearly inexhaustible" materials, composed of what looks to be eight simple parts, easy to make and assemble, weighs less than a pound, recyclable-- cost almost just south of $30 each even before shipping? Shouldn't something like that be relatively inexpensive, or is this another one of those "oh man, hipsters and hollywood yokels will love this shit, let's jack the profit up to nearly 500% or the overall cost" things that I'll never get?
>>268593Lack of government subsidy to cheapen the overall cost of materials, processing, manufacturing, marketing, etc?I dunno. That's a guess.
Is it safe to assume that I'll be the only one here going to Anime Fest? Just curious.

>>268627:(
blah blah blah okay /baw/ do you guys have any mottos or codes that you live by? if possible, don't let this degenerate into another religious argument plox. my heart can't take it.
>>268646When you build something, make two.Wash your ass.Koi fish will be koi fish.Always understand the fine print; find an interpreter if you can't read it.Don't stick your dick in the crazy.
>>268646I think Jon Stewart was very wise when he said, "BE A FUCKING PERSON!" I try to live up to that standard.
I never liked Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
>>268646The more sensitive you are, the more likely you are to be brutalised, develop scabs and never evolve. Never allow yourself to feel anything because you always feel too much.Never confuse the size of your paycheck with the size of your talent.Regret is useless in life. It's in the past. All we have is now.You can say something in a certain spirit, with a smile, but when it appears in print, there's no smile.I put on an act sometimes, and people think I'm insensitive. Really, it's like a kind of armour because I'm too sensitive.
>>268658And as always,Push it to the limit.
>>268658We all wear masks, metaphorically speaking. =]
>>268646Some basic codes like:Do be nice to the elderly, even if they aren't always nice to youDon't make elaborate lies or lies meant to hurt someoneDo take responsibility for the turbulence you leave behind, both physical (trash etc) and otherwise (chaos, unrest etc)Don't curse in front of ladies or childrenDo make an effort to be patient, because it is the root of all wisdomDon't deprive someone of something which they earnedDo be humble of successes and proud of failures, because success can only happen with the lessons learned in failureI frequently break these, but at least I make an effortAnd the codes which overrides all previous ones and are the most important:Do return ten fold what is given to you, be it good or badIf nothing is given to you, give nothing in return but goodwillControl your natural greed, for greed is the root of all enmityI have never broken these in my adult life
>>268660The trick is to not need it at all.
Man, some of you have wise things to say. Who knew?>>268663There are also certain rules for when I can or cannot lie, or how hard to pursue a goal etc. I could write an essay but it would be too boring.
>>268646I got nothin'. I often tell myself that bitching about a problem which doesn't have any immediate solution is pointless, but that's more an attempt to reign in/outright suppress my emotions than living up to an ideal....man, that's probably the root reason for a lot of the shit in my life, now that I think about it.
>>268664
I used to be numb. It wasn't fun living a life without meaning.I'd rather I kept my quick raging, fast crying, hard loving old self than go back to that. In fact, I'm quite proud of how sensitive I am.
>>268646Violence is never right, but in some cases it is necessary.Forgive, but forgetting is stupid.Always be a gentleman.There is nothing that can't be accomplished with willpower.You have a responsibility to the people around you to not interfere negatively in their life. If they are to respect you, you are to hold up your end of the contract.It is the duty of the strong to protect the weak, and the duty of the weak to strive to be strong. It is the duty of the wise to teach the unlearned, and the duty of the unlearned to strive to gain knowledge. It is the duty of the dreamers to create and the builders to construct the dreams. It is the duty of the quick to catch us when we fall, and the duty of the fallen to stand back up.Yep I feel like a tool for postin that :I
I'm trying to find an apartment or a house to rent and just about every ad I've looked at doesn't take pets.
>>268675As well you should. What the fuck is that shit?[spoiler]Nihilism is for those who lack talent, charm, or wit.
>>268678Your post had a stroke.
>>268680It's better this way.

>>268678I'm not a Nihilist.
>>268685I guess what that "King Tripfag" guy was getting at is that childish assholes complain about everything and don't take anything seriously. The sort of people that would laugh at you for baring your soul like an angel, like you just did, you sexy beast.
>>268687Im -a go poke you on Facebook.
>have next to no sense of smell>accidentally drink sour milk for the billionth time
>>268646No real "codes" but I do keep this in mind at all times-- nothing in this world can stop me. I have lived in a mansion and I have been homeless. I have bought my own car with my own money and I have had one given to me. I've had a car repossessed for that matter. I have been punched in the teeth and I have punched someone in the teeth. I have stood up to teachers and cops and girls who could have made my high school experience hell. Sometimes, it turned out in my favor and sometimes, it meant I spent a lot of time in detention. I have gone hungry. I have protected my brothers and, in kind, been protected by them. I have sat in a car with a gun and considered shooting the man who ruined my mother's life. And then I did the most difficult thing in the world and I forgave him instead. All that shit happened before I was even 20. I worked for everything I have and I have fucked up more than a few times and I will continue to fuck up because I am human and that's just how things work. But there is no such thing as the "end of the line." One door closes and another one opens, I guess.
