The Throne of Thufir's Thoroughly Theoretical and Therapeutic Random Banter #116

[Nychta]

Pretzels are filling.

I think we should write an RB guide to Mixing Food.

[Rutskarn]

Pretzels+Fritos=Can Work, Sometimes. I don't know why, but the effects aren't as bad as with regular potato chips. The pretzels will suffer for it, but it's not a recipe worthy of the Gastronomicon.

I don't like mixing pretzels with anything at all, really. Except strawberry ice cream.

[Alleine]

I'm convinced my eating habits will kill me someday. Luckily, that day is not this day. This day, we eat!
*stuffs face with rainbowflesh*

[cycoris]

On the theme of snack foods that should never, ever be seen together: goldfish and raisins. Euw, euw, gross. The raisins get coated with salty cheese stuff, and if they're the sweetened kind, then the goldfish get sugar on them.

[Nychta]

... for a while I thought you meant real goldfish.
We don't get that snack here. I think.

Needed: avatar idea.
I've had this one for aaages.

[cycoris]

Nope, goldfish are cheddar cheese cracker snack thingies that are shaped like goldfish.

Um, you could wait until whenever this happens and go evil with your avatar.

[Nychta]

Hmm. I think I had an evil one waaay back. Too tempting to reuse Phase's Vampire one.

I might do a good one, but I'd end up reusing the art that I posted in the Get Well Soon Ink thread.

[Alleine]

I don't know much about mixing snack foods. There's never anything to eat except 'real' food and skittles.

However I discovered that peanut butter on a tortilla heated in a microwave till it bubbles is really good.

[Coidzor]

^: I say... That's a topnotch idea... But what to do to kick it up a notch, old bean...

Peanutbutter and pretzels and chocolate is pretty good. Or y'know, any two of those combined.

I was amazed, however, at how interesting it was to have some cheddar cheese filled combos (round pretzels with filling), chocolate, and lightly salted peanuts together...

Rather nifty-spiffy.

Concert tonight. I haven't even seen one of the pieces we're playing yet. Fortunately, I'm just playing bassoon to give more depth to our school's wind ensemble, so they shouldn't be too tough to sight read.

Can't wait for the next jazz practise, though. We've got a cool piece called Chameleon, and this arrangement is honestly better than Herbie Hancock's. Hopefully we'll be able to put as much life into it as he did his arrangement, though. I've got the guitar part that's the third/fourth (don't know which part I'll do yet) part to come into the song.

All in all, I like when jazz band gets funky.

In other news, I'm doing quite well in my IB mocks. Got the highest grade in our grade on the first paper of Bio.
@V: Oh, there's plenty reason in Bio. It's just based on arbitrary facts.
At any rate, it's useful IRL (when done correctly), I'm good at it, so I have no qualms with it.

[Player_Zero]

Booo biology! Take a reason science!

*Misses backspace key and hits insert by mistake...*

!!!

Shift+insert is ctrl+v?!

[Phase]

Go biology! Real science for the win!

[DraPrime]

Hmm, that xkcs strip about the purity of scientific fields comes to mind. Isn't biology just applied chemistry?

[Phase]

Your MOM's just applied chemistry.

Zing!

Logical fallacy: Argument ad XKCD.

@V: Yes.

[DraPrime]

Logical fallacy: Argument ad XKCD.

Are you suggesting that xkcd is wrong?

[SMEE]

*grumbles about lack of proper reproductive system*

*grumble, grumble, grumble*

I woke up totally moody today...

[DraPrime]

Your MOM's just applied chemistry.

Zing!

Oh yeah? Well...you have no mom!


You know, because natural sattelites don't have parents.

[Thufir]

Reflect - You had a mother once!
Never!
Then you had an aunt!
*Gasp*
Ah, I see you had.

[TwoBitWriter]

I love waking up early...

I'm one of those people that likes to have, like, an hour to goof off before leaving for work.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Ditto me that.
Except that I do want enough sleep.

And when I manage to get that time before school, I always have to stressedly try to catch my train.

[Thufir]

I'm one of those people that likes to have, like, an hour to goof off before leaving for work.

I like that... but I also like my bed. But occasionally I wake up and get up well rested and early and spend an hour on the internet before uni starts.

[TwoBitWriter]

I am still very much a night person, but financial concerns have forced a white collar day job upon me. I find that I do enjoy the very early mornings, when it is still dark.

I think Sunrises are so much more beautiful then Sunsets.

[randman22222]

Ditto me that.

Not sure why, but I love that syntax.

[Oregano]

I need to type another 100 or so words for my step outline which is good because I need to be back at college by 1:30.

[Player_Zero]

I like how my alarm goes off at 8AM and then I wake up at 10AM.

What I don't like is when people knock on my door at 9AM, I respond through the door that I'm not out of bed and ask them what they want that's so important I have to be woken up in the middle of the freaking MORNING and they apparently walk away. How rude.

Maybe you sound like a bear? That would cause the instinctual human reaction to run from bears to kick in, and they would run away.

Another case solved, by me. Dr. Bath.

[Player_Zero]

Zero gasped!

The honey, the hibernation, the way he could catch fish with his hands... He was a bear!

[Phaedra]

I have been working on this piece for what seems like hours. When I started I had 1666 words. Now, after much hard work and heartache, I have 1686 words.

20 words. I mean, I know I deleted some stuff and added other stuff, but still. A net gain of 20 words.

If anyone wants me, I'll be in that corner crying about my lack of productivity.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Hey you got something!
I´ve been trying to get working on a project for school due friday for a couple of hours now and I just can´t get damn started..
