Postmodernism
It’s killing me. This whole idea of being skeptical of everything. It’s so pretentious.
In science, you can’t say prove anything. You can barely say you support something. Most of the time you can only reject what it’s not.
What’s worse is the society it created. It creates this environment when everyone is trying to be above it all. You can’t care for...

Let’s all take a moment to commiserate with China. It’s kinda like the first day of school and you’re forced to become lab partners with someone because they’re sitting next to you. Only later do you realize that they’ve been tampering with nukes and threatening to bomb the rest of the class. But you can’t just bail on them because your lab grade depends on...

Corrine IS SOOOOO DUMMBBB
This is a survivor rant. Also a note to myself. There were so many ways that she could’ve won. And she was just blinded by her hate and ambition to not see it. If they want to split the vote. Let them split the vote. You still win. Also why does everyone think they’re so friggin clever. You’re not clever when you’re giving your friggin master plan away. EVIL...

The Hypothetical
If you were the second in command of a Nazi labor camp what will you do?
So far I came up with three choices:
You can of course follow orders and sneak in a gold tooth or 50 and live an okay life after the war. We all hope to be better than this but according to Milgram, this is 65% of us.
You can of course resign and refuse to take the job, run away. But this isn’t much better....

The Bitcoin Bubble
Bitcoin, an internet currency, is getting big. I mean it’s upward trending for months now. Currently it’s around $94, you can thank the ruins of Cypress for that. That has to be a bubble. I’m not doubting that. But, the thing is can I jump on this bubble before it bursts. Why not right?

Hollingsworth v Perry
Despite all the crap people say about gay marriage, at the end of the day, facing the highest court in the land, their best argument is, there is already a democratic process in the way, and the court shouldn’t interfere with it. Since when does democracy allow you to choose who does and doesn’t get fundamental rights.
Also Justice Kennedy brought up an interesting point:
There...

The Pursuit of Happiness
Yes I want what I can’t have. But isn’t that just human nature. It’s greed, it’s lust, it’s ambition, will, desire, passion, motivation. It’s human. Because settling is complacency and well enough isn’t good enough.
I don’t think wanting what you can’t have is a bad thing. It’s the pursuit of happiness. No one can deny us of that...

The 31
I thought I would do a lot better. Maybe even just one or two points. I don’t know. I mean it’s perfectly acceptable. It’s in the 80 percentile and everything. I am just really bummed.
When you try, really try and put yourself out there and fall. It hurts. I don’t usually put a lot of effort into things but I had such a definite and solid expectation. Falling...
sochill asked: Well first off, 'rolling' is when you're on ecstasy. 'Rolling tits' is when you're on an extreme ecstasy high lol and so basically, this guy was spinning on his back (turtle spins), and was obviously rolling tits.
I'm giving up the words "awesome" and "cool."
If it matters to you, then you’ll find a way. If it doesn’t you’ll find an...

The Ellipsis Conundrum
So I sent a professor this letter asking about a possible research opportunity, and she decides to send her reply decked out on ellipsis.
Thank you Chris..I have forwarded your request to my grad student who works on the research you mentioned…
Like… what are you… trying to convey…
My antisocial behaviour is making me a pathological liar.

The World of Sitcom
Wouldn’t it be nice if we live in a sitcom. Sensitive subjects are handled with a light-hearted touch. Aging happens at a snail pace. You learn a lesson in every day. Any problems can be resolved in thirty minutes, and the main cast will never change.

The Apocalyptic What if
What if the apocalypse was suppose to happen but a teenager descended from the Mayans managed to stopped the serpent from swallowing the sun, and we get to live another cycle. I’m sure we will read all about it in Rick Riordan’s next book, Pedro and the not so Bloody Sacrifice.

The girl in the room next to me has been playing that new stupid Taylor Swift song for two straight hours now.
SHE’S STILL PLAYING THAT GODDAMN SONG.
Are you hating on country-dubstep? Do you not know that for ages to come this song will be exalted by generations of our posterity. Hipsters in the year 2080 will subtly bring up how they listened to this song on...

The Physiology Question
This was a question used on an actual final for Physiology:
You are attending the last UNT football game. The air temperature is below 28°C. You feel terribly cold and sharp pain in you ankle that you twisted on the stairs. Your date turns to you, kisses you passionately and passes a small tablet to you during the kiss. Wow!! Within 10 min you feel strange: You can no longer smell the...

The Vegetarianism Depression
Biology will now explain why that vegan douche over there is being so depressing and condescending. Meat gives us a substance called tryptophan. Tryptophan is then converted into serotonin in our brain. Serotonin is responsible for regulating our mood, ie. more serotonin more happiness.
Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can buy you meat, and that might be the next best thing.
