Can PF Random Thoughts be Split to Help with Server Load?
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.

Today is a good day...repeating that enough times should put me in a self-hypnotic trance so that it might actually start to feel like it.
At least the mangas got updated.

To be blunt: I am three posts away from 22027.
But in a few days from now Doc Al will have 40471, and no one will be able to beat that soon.

Mmmm...A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July -
Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear -
Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.
Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream -
Lingering in the golden gleam -
Life, what is it but a dream?
Lewis Carroll
Through the looking glass

I drove home today after work and gym, with my mind spinning and whirring on this topic and that. So much to think about these days, so many moving parts!
So it should be no surprise I ran out of gas on the freeway. I simply was not paying attention.
Thank you to the nice Washington State Trooper, and thank you to the tow-truck driver who brought me gas
:thumbs: 
.
(Btw, the last time I ran out of gas was over 30 years ago.)
(Bt2ndw, AAA is awesome too!)

My car is over two years old now. Since I drove it off the dealer's lot I've put a total of four gallons of gas in it. I've almost forgotten how to put gas in the car.

Today, my teammate ran out of gas, left his car on the street, and ran the rest of the way to practice so he wouldn't be late.

I just noticed that I posted something in the "Best Humor Award" thread and, when I noticed the voting was still going on, I got rid of it and subsequently forgot about it.
It went something along the lines of
"Now that voting is over and I can't influence anyone to vote for me, I'd like to thank you all. It is an honor to be nominated for anything on here, though it's certainly a surprise that I'm considered humorous enough to be considered. It's always a pleasure to be on here, because Physics Forums has a fantastic dedication to quality. It is by no means a stretch to say that I am a proud member of PF.
Congratulations to Enigman!"
...or something like that.
