- Sneezed, now drowning in a sea of back pain. Please kill me. #
- It’s like there is a disco rave at my spine and an epileptic sea urchin tethered to my tail bone. #
- Tried some Bacon Explosion. It was surprisingly good! http://tinyurl.com/bcbde7 #
- Feeling less like my spine is playing jumprope with my nerves. That’s a good sign, at least. Hope it keeps up! #
- Hit a deer. Everyone is ok, but the car isn’t. Deer is exploded. #
- The aftermath: http://tinyurl.com/baegnq (click for bigger) #
- Paul pronounces “Viagra” as “Vee-ah-gra”. Makes it sound so exotic! Also, makes you wonder… #
- @pleia2: Hitting a deer on the highway is much like hitting a brick wall. Everyone is fine, though- the airbags didn’t even deploy. in reply to pleia2 #
- Bought some t-shirt hell stuff while it was still possible. http://www.tshirthell.com/goodbye.php #
- Annual performance review tomorrow… I always get nervous about these things. #
- The makers of the music may have died, but the music lives on. ♫ http://blip.fm/~1zdak #
- Reading Dawkins’ The God Delusion (awesome book). If God is in the gaps, does that mean he was made in a sweatshop? #
- Caffeinated, then went to a meeting. Now learning about interesting effects via the wikipedia. #
- While looking for http://tinyurl.com/4pc7qm , found http://tinyurl.com/ywj6vb , http://tinyurl.com/2skwjz , http://tinyurl.com/bfb3ko :) #
- Should all scientists crusade against people of religious faith in the most offensive possible manner? I think so! http://tinyurl.com/b24mnm #
- Whenever I read about hipsters I worry that I might be one. Maybe the fact that do I worry about this means that I should stop worrying. #
- Fun with maths! Solveded:
i != 1 ∴
√-1 != √1 ∴
√(3-4) != √(5-4) ∴
(3-4)² != (5-4)²
http://tinyurl.com/bc5asz # - Well, yes, (3-4)² == (5-4)² … but still! √(3-4) != √(5-4) It’s not cromulent to reduce square expressions like that. #
- I’ve got an urge to cut my hair short, style it spikey, and dye it blue. Hmm. I’ll wait a while before acting on this. #
- QFT: Stop making more people and make something worthwhile instead! http://tinyurl.com/bsmy8z #
- Goin’ to see #coraline, w007! #
- #Coraline was TOTALLY awesome. Highly recommended! #
- Fizzgig has a combover! #
- Everyone else went hiking. I’m skipping it – don’t want to reinjure myself. Also, I didn’t want to keep everyone waiting while I got ready. #
- $17 worth of pasta sauce (2 bottles)… Better be worth it! #
- Didn’t draw / sketch anything tonight for the first time in nearly a month… too drunk, too tired. Bleh. #

What is wrong with this picture?
Electric cars come from the shadows and feed on your young
Via Consumerist, an interesting bit of conspiracy-history:
If you want to sell a car, you put a hot person in it and shoot them skidding at high speeds across desert plains. This was like trailer for a sequel to The Ring.
Elongated shadows of a family spill across across pavement at a canted angle while a spectral chorus moans in the background. “How does it go without sparks or explosions?” asks the voice over. Right when it says “explosions,” the camera moves in on the baby carriage shadow. Then it fades to black, and when it fades back in, near where the baby carriage was there’s an explosiony-looking pock-mark on the ground.
You don’t have to have a PhD psychology to figure out that they were trying to scare consumers away from buying electric cars.
I’m probably more likely to buy a car if it comes with the promise that it will explode baby carriages (and presumably babies), but I suppose people like me weren’t the target audience.
Day of the snifits
Weekly twitterings for 2009-02-01
- Dreamt I went to San Francisco and hung out with @jwz (DNA Lounge == ice cream shop?!) who gave me Wallace and Gromit action figures #dreams #
- I find it a bit disturbing how readily many twitter users will enter their usernames/passwords on any site that asks them to. #
- Yay! It’s fake: http://tinyurl.com/a9vm4c #
- Twitter sometimes takes FOREVER to notice I’ve sent it txts. Sigh. #
- Got up early and took my car to Bell’s Auto in Varna where they fixed it for FREE! What a great way to start the day! #
- I would adopt the nickname ‘Snortsnoot’ if I didn’t already love ‘Schadenfreudchen’ so much: http://tinyurl.com/amscmq #
- The only way is down… ♫ http://blip.fm/~1tkmp #
- Guys think a woman is just a life support system for a vagina. Also, sometimes, for the guys. http://is.gd/9Zjj #
- Open, insert baby head first, lift, SMASH! http://www.babysmasher.com/ #
- Fresh-baked oatmeal currant cookies, yum! #
- “Daddy, I want her to go back [away, upstairs]” “Don’t worry, she’s going to work” Don’t worry, the feeling is mutual! #
- O noes! Delicious is not working properly! #
- So why should I listen to all this New-Age HIppie BS when a good lie-down would work just as well? #
- Upgrading Moodle for the second time in less than a week- yay! That’s what I get for being proactive. :/ #
- I feel like my back is being run through a meat grinder. Ow. #
- Feeling even more misanthropic than usual today. Maybe it’s on account of the EXCRUCIATING PAIN. Maybe. #
- Took two advil, waited about 45 minutes, no effect, took two more… waiting to my stomach to crawl up my throat and throttle me. #
- Either that advil has finally started to work or the pain is now so much a part of me that I no longer notice it. Either way, yay mobility! #
- Finally got to play some wow again, and dinged 77. Also, I got to ride a giant and crush things. *SMASH!* #
- H.G. Wells and Orson Wells – could the night be any more right? Probably, but it’s a good start. #
- Another day, another misery. How would you rather start your day? Poopy crying babies or nails on a chalkboard? #
- (The chalkboard is attached to the inside of your skull, its horrid cacaphony amplified with loudspeakers and by echoes.) #
- Stories about how the poop flowed like a river are an equally horrible way to continue the morning. Who wants breakfast? #
