@Mukora: I think the original Fate was an H-novel, though from what I hear it's since evolved away from that.

Something I realized today, after seriously using it for the first time: Tumblr's infamous Fan Dumb is pretty much a natural consequence of its design. It prevents people from publicly talking to each other, so it attracts the kind of people who have no interest in a two-way discourse.

Basically, they give the users a microphone and shush their audience by not giving them anywhere to post dissent where the people who read the original post can see it (unless the author connected a Disqus account, which is pretty rare.) The only way they can express disagreement is by reblogging it to their own followers and adding a note, which the original author won't see unless they go looking for it.

It's a lot like cordoning protesters into a free speech zone, and it's no surprise that compromise and mutual understanding usually don't happen there.

So, all documents submitted and now it's time to get the proper college offer letter now that I've proven that I passed my high school exit test.

On another note, the double coursework presentations today went pretty well. Especially as I'll be relying on my business science one to pass my coursework (the midterm test was a train wreck).

I really REALLLY hate Criminal Minds. Seriosuly, the characters right now are searching for people with IQ's over 160 under the assumption that the Zodiac Killer MUST have been a child prodigy! And the locations of his murders are based on Chess Moves! and two of the characters are also geniuses and tried to find the Killer when they were 12!!!!

Why does the 'Darude – "Sandstorm"' meme exist? Can't it be 'Audioslave – "Cochise"' instead?

When a celebrity you like starts doing or saying things that bug you and it's like "Ooh. OOOOOH. You best watch yourself, son. You're becoming increasingly difficult for me to like. You haven't crossed the threshold into me disliking you but dammit you're running out of strikes man."

Just saw this on a youtube let's play video, and thought I'd share it, since it's one of the most hilariously bizarre things I think I've seen in recent memory.

Anyone who gone thru the American public education system used the "day month year" format at least once due to MLA format.

The meme exists because of a video of a guy playing it on a toy trumpet and a prominent League of Legends streamer getting a quad kill while it was playing and the highlight video spreading thanks to Reddit.

@Trip, last page: That seems to be a reference to something I don't get.

Also, I've come to realize that everything that exists has a Fatal Flaw in one way or another.
