Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
Far as I can figure, the main difference between black ice and regular ice is that black ice is thin and has little to no air stuck in it, so you end up with a smooth transparent sheet of ice instead of a slightly rough white sheet.

But... winter brings sledding, and snowball fights, and frozen lakes to play broomball on, and days where it's cold enough that the diesel in the buses freezes so school gets cancelled and then you go outside and it's so cold it hurts, but in a good way and then you embrace the cold and it becomes your friend and you feel like the most awesome person alive.
Seriously, I LOVE WINTER.

So it's my birthday tomorrow, and my parents came over today because they have to work tomorrow, and they brought me a CAKE. I wish I could share it with all of you - giving baked goods is how I show people that I appreciate their existence. Since I can't give any of you cake, however, (unless you happen to be in Winona, MN in the next couple of days) I'll settle for this: I love you guys.

the equation is F=μkN. Although I don't recall what most of those terms stand for, I do remember that μk is the coefficient of friction. Our teacher told us to remember this by the mnemonic device "physics is fun," but most of us went with "******' physics."

F can mean whatever you define it to be.
Normally it means Net Force but explicit defining overrides it, in this case the Normal instead of the Net Force and the Friction has been replaced with 0 because it will approximately equal it (though mu has been left for humour purposes.)
You just have to remember the definition of friction, no need for mnemonics.

All of your really warm clothes will be useless for the better part of the year!
Actually, that's all I can think of. June gets kind of hot, but that's about it as far as temperature extremes go. I've got nothing on our friends in Australia for warm summers.

Also, I have contacted the budgie agent in your area. Here is his portrait. He will come bearing a squash blossom so you know he is not an imposter.

That first breath of air so cold that you choke on it, then breathe deeply of the essence of the north; the sudden stop of your heart for just half a second of panic when your foot goes somewhere you weren't expecting; the comfort of simply laying in a bed of snow, allowing it to conform to your body - truly, the most glorious of the seasons is upon us.

Of course you, my erudite eaglet. In thanks for your cake and your budgie agent's melody, I shall send you this gift basket:
If the contents should prove to be overly predatory, the gift may be returned simply by whispering your desire into the winter wind; she will vanish as a leprechaun's gold.
ION: One of my friends here who I was bringing cake to wasn't in his room when I went there, but the door was unlocked, so I went in and left the cake there with this note:
"Dear Future Self,
You won't remember having baked this, but I figured you'd want a slice."

O, Mink's-eye! This is a busy day for the budgie agents. If you can hold on a moment, I will send a missive to Archangel to rouse Elemental for you.
In the mean time, please avail yourself of a glass of amber sherry, which will soothe your wracked nerves.

Hey, if I don't fall all the way on the ground, I can save some face by pretending it was intentional. :smallbiggrin:
A forest with a decent mix of brambles, deciduous trees, brambles, fir trees, brambles, and a field of grass or two. The brambles, thankfully, were far removed from my tent.

Are we talking the kind of brambles that grow blackberries? Although I suppose they would be all gone by now. Still, as you have demonstrated, it is fun to say brambles.

It depends on the time of day. Sometimes speed is an asset :smallwink:
Mynxanistan must determine that, for he has not piped in on the idea yet; but I should say that I am struggling through the gristle-mill of some papers for the next little while and probably shouldn't engage myself until after they are finished. ;___;

I cannot say. The trials he is currently up against are something that I cannot help him with despite how much I want to.
Really? How is that even possible... It's an analogue alarm clock... Nevertheless, I thank him for his assistance.
As for me, I am mostly alright. A bit tired, but otherwise fine.
The cat even decided to sleep on my bed last night, something she has not done in a very long time. Though I fear with her age, she's starting to develop the early stages of dementia as she seemed most confused before I went to bed last night.

Well that is what Archangel told me. Perhaps he is lying, and he merely spent several hours pecking his reflection in the clock's face. It wouldn't be the first time.

Well, he obviously had to make certain that there wasn't an evil budgie doppelganger in there.
It can happen as they get older. I can't remember the signs one is supposed to look out for. But she has certainly become more vocal this passed year and more likely to be unable to decide what she wants. But she will be sixteen next year, so she is hardly a young cat.

That, or he just had to woo the incredibly handsome budgie trapped behind the glass...
The poor old dear. At least you got to sleep with her thought, right? That's a good thing?

Or that.
I think she's doing it because I've been kindly letting her outside at ungodly hours recently. So she's decided that sleeping in my room is more convenient when it comes to waking me up.
Goodnight.

As an example, if you walk into a room and insult someone loudly, even without intent to do so, you set the tone of the room. You set how the interactions everyone in the room will have with you will go from then on. The point is that the meaning you attached there carried to everything you said after it, as you continued to argue and defend that point, even if you didn't mean to.
And you did nothing to alleviate that for a rather long time, but spent an equally long time trying to lecture me on how to detect and treat misunderstandings. Do you understand why I'm getting a bit annoyed with your behaviour?

Nothing to alleviate what? You know what you said, I know what you said, there was nothing to alleviate. If you're talking about why didn't I address it? I did. I said a couple of times that it was just a misunderstanding, and misunderstandings happen, no one was at fault.
Also, please do not call this a "lecture". That is far from what this is, and is something I would definitely consider as putting words in my mouth if you persist. We've already discussed how this isn't about anybody telling anyone off.
