    Random Thoughts
Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around the splitting of larger threads to alleviate server load, specifically continuing the Random Thoughts thread. Participants express their thoughts on various topics, including the emotional impact of the game Bioshock: Infinite, which one user describes as "haunting." They discuss the game's cover art, noting the absence of the female co-lead, Elizabeth, from the front cover, and reference an interview with Ken Levine that suggests this was a marketing compromise. The conversation shifts to personal anecdotes, including family dynamics and humorous observations about everyday life, such as experiences at McDonald's and the challenges of parenting toddlers. The thread features a blend of light-hearted banter, reflections on gaming, and casual storytelling, highlighting the community's camaraderie.

Indeed it can't. It's grown too large, too ubiquitous, too powerful. Our only hope is to send a robot assassin to the garden of Eden and kill humanity before they... somebody's at my door... they've found me.

Kudos to you for not caring too much about what people think of you. If only more people were like this.

Thanks; it's not even a close call for me. Do I feel unbearably, uncomfortably hot , or do I offend people I barely know or care about. I'm thinking of bringing up the topic of their moms and giving suggestions for what the moms should do with their mustache.

It seems my neighbor is having some flashbacks from the war. Every time he hears the word 'Vietnam', he runs to his car and drives all the way, nonstop, to Canada. Somehow National Geographic keeps 'Border Wars' in their daily programming, despite the fact that illegal immigration has greatly-decreased.

It's so true. It's very primal too. The feeling of "I'm safe, warm, and happy" comes from a good meal. It's nice! Bonus points if it's around people you care about.

I'd skitter up a tree if possible. I'd be warm at least. I'll take it.

My father would steal food off my plate if I wasn't looking.

I now wolf down my food as fast as possible. Just in case...

Thanks HayleySarg. I've never had a migraine that lasts this long, just annoying.

Besides, if Adam Sandler can pull of being called a comedian, and somone can , with a straight face, include him in the film "Funny People", then anyone can pull it off.

He's only called a comedian. Pluto was once called a planet - now it's a dwarf planet. Maybe history will set things right.

EDIT: Sorry, I obviously for some reason replied to a post written approx. 200 posts ago :biggrin:. I thought I was looking at the latest Random Thoughts page, but apparently not, haha.

Yes, they really are. I only get truly bad headaches once every few months. They knock me out for the day, and I can feel the residual pain for days after.

I hope you feel better.

Last semester I loved linear algebra. This summer I love abstract algebra. I think I'm becoming and algebraist.

I just got my Spivak calculus in the mail. Is it possible to be a Spivakist?
