Random Thoughts Part 5: Time to Split Again

[Psinter]

Don't know, I was accused of engaging in biological warfare with my feet as weapons.

I once heard someone coming out of the bathroom saying: "That was a big s... I think I broke the toilet. I don't know what I'm doing here. I'm awesome, I should be a da** military weapon of mass destruction."

Do not complain. Those mushrooms saved me recently and several times before.

I don't think I get it, but it still made me laugh.

In what ways?

 

[zoobyshoe]

I have a runny nose and chest congestion. Are there mushrooms for that?

This one has a universal property in problem solving:

 

[fresh_42]

In what ways?

Mean inflammation in my lower jaw.

Mean inflammation in my lower jaw.

Which mushrooms? And what do they do?

Ok, you cannot simply eat mushrooms, the medicine is a deritive from a form of the bacteria.

I know. I wouldn't even be able to recognize the correct form of mold. But I have some trust in the pharma industry.

I just saw a really good movie called American Hustle. It surprised me cause I'd never heard of it. It was the inside story of the 1970s ABSCAM stings. The main actor was Christian Bale. He played this great, sketchy 1970s con artist.

Speaking of the FBI, the new X-Files turned out to be much better than I thought it would be.

The new X-files is a HOOT! It is so funny, I love it! I don't remember the original series as being as funny, I remember it being boring and hard to watch.

It rotates through different moods. Some episodes are funny and some are scary and some are boring and hard to watch. The funny episodes are the most memorable. My favorite funny episode from the first run was The Great Mutato, which was shot in black and white and borrowed themes and shots from the 1930's Frankenstein movies.

Evo child says she can only remember the music which still scares her.

I've thought of Alexander Fleming. (My risk aversion is too high to try uncontrollable doses.)

I was amused to note recently that Imperial College London has a "Sir Alexander Fleming Cafe". I'm not sure whether I'd want to eat there!

This is so true: (except for the flying bicycle)

 

[Silicon Waffle]

I have my speakers on at the moment and believe me I hear the repeated sounds of "tat-tat-tat..." from them while that bicycle is being ridden across the moon.

. My volume is full and I can't hear anything.

Seriously, I always hear the noises on pages where e.g animation, marque texts etc exist, even when I scroll my mouse up and down. Do you know why ?

oh, why don't Americans use metric system? every time I'm reading recipes or something technical (eg. size of phones or tablets) I have to convert all the time

No, but there maybe a cure. A friend of mine always replied to his tinnitus attacks: "Shut up! I know you're not existent!"

They hate the French.

 

[Sophia]

They hate the French.

Than why, when I watch TV show where they show luxurious American houses they seem to LOVE French country style?

Oh, they love them, too, it's both. It's simply that they don't understand them at all. That's why they call the belgian fries french.
Btw., it took them decades to change the calendar because they hated the pope, too.

Donald Trump and Jeb Bush are secretly the same person. He ran two campaigns so that one would highlight the qualities of the other. It hasn't worked out as expected, so he's embraced the character fully. The American people will elect the dark lord they deserve.

Dammit, I laughed at this.

...or all of your friends will laugh too. Which is what seems to be happening to me.

 

[fresh_42]

I imagine how it would look like if someone had assembled some of the molecules which are also there!

 

[Ibix]

I showed the picture to my wife, who is a chemistry lecturer. Apparently they were building molecules with those kits in one of her lab sessions a couple of weeks ago. One of her female students held up an OH in one hand and an H in the other and announced that her water had broken.

Very good, young padawan, very good.

I have been knocked down by the/a stomach flu. I had stop becoming sick less frequently over
time, but it hit me, had to stay at home, sleeping it off; I have slept around 5h after around 10 a.m;
I just close my eyes and automagically fall asleep..

Hope you feel better soon - being sick sucks.

Sounds complex.

I use Fahrenheit. Give me the temperature in Celsius and I'll make this face: And I have to buy all of them to be on the safe side:

It would be nice if I could standardize all my devices to use only one of them. And vehicles too. Vehicles have pieces in all systems which makes it a hassle.

Yay!

I find we should strike back and start to use Réaumur!

I *love* the "Reader View" option in Firefox. Makes reading articles soooo much easier.

I put it on on YouTube, but I could not read the video.
