  3. Fuck my economics class, all the answers are opinions and the only thing that has been taught as a fact is the law of demand and supply.

      I can't figure out what he wants though lol.

      I did for one form of question on the first exam, but for the same one on the midterm it was a different answer.

  4. FUCK YEAH! Just went to check the new student orientation dates for my college on a whim to try and get an earlier date. GOT THE FIRST ORIENTATION!! Gonna be getting a baller ass schedule and dorm now!

  5. Fun acoustic lesson, hold your hands perpendicular to you head in front of your ears (like blocking your mouth from your ears) and talk. What you'll hear is the sound of your voice as others hear it. What you will be doing is blocking the stream of bass that arrives to your ears before the rest.

      you'll be fine. I had all 4 done at once and only had 1 shot of Novocain per tooth (half a syringe each side for each tooth) and I heard them crack the tooth and pull it out whole. It was cool! Just be ready to drool on yourself from all that novocain. lol

      Make sure knocked out and basically starve yourself for 2-3 days after. I had mine taken out, no problems. But, then got a dry socket and oh my god. That was pain beyond belief.

  7. Getting quilts foam or anything soft to tie down over our cars to protect from large hail tonight.

      Secure 2x4 to the "roof. Then make some panels on the bottom. Drive the car under, the tires will be on the bottom panels holding it all in place

      Thanks man, we don't ever get tornadoes too bad here but straight line winds have hit over 75mph quite often and do lots of damage. Thoughts go out to you, your friends, family, and neighbors.

  8. Getting the truck all ready for dipping.

  9. Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

      I find that offensive. I was burned to death once.

  10. Google acquired Titan, maker of aerospace drones. Facebook was interested in buying Titan as well, for $60 million. I just want to know how Facebook only offered $60M for Titan, but bought Oculus for $2 Billion (1.6M in FB Stock).

  11. Google is trying to trademark the word "Glass" with over 2,000 pages to be sent to the US trademark office, because of Google we will all have to drink from melted sand-based drinking conveyances.

    1. Krakin

      Yes I do understand the difference between a trademark and a copyright. Get over it.

      I would really like to to my EE degree, but do I wanna go into nuclear power? Prrooooobaably not, haha. It used to be a great place before 9/11, but now it's locked up like Fort Knox. I'm still surprised I get to go as far as I do.

      I might man, but I'll be applying with another co-worker, which means we will probably look for an apartment together.

  18. Got the truck all dipped and now time to start on the insides!

      Didn't like the way the dip turned out or inside then out?

  19. Got to wear a cardiac event monitor for 2 weeks... Had an echocardigram, shows everything that could be bad isn't there, such as thickening of the heart. So hopefully this monitor will find what is causing this to happen.

      So far it's nothing wrong, but I think only time will tell with this event monitor.

  20. Gotta love technology, trying to drop my Cal 2 class for Cal 1 and receiving errors that I am unqualified for Cal 1 after I was accepted for Cal 2... Go figure.

  21. Grandmother just had a stroke; I'm not really sure what to expect given that she is 98 years old.
