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.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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.
ION:
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.
EDIT:
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."Last edited by Dimonite; 2012-11-18 at 08:39 PM.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
What's the catch?
Man I can barely remember how to do fractions correctly, you expect me to know what this is?
You silly people and your like of winter. I'll never get it.
Also, happy early birthday! Just incase I miss it.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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.Last edited by AsteriskAmp; 2012-11-18 at 08:53 PM.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
The worst, for me, is not the all-out ass-over-teakettle tumble. It's the slightly jerky loss of balance, the subtle "whoops!" which damages the dignity without the recourse of dramatics. Death of a thousand cuts.
ION: I finally have cold weather! YEAH!
And, of course, the first thing I do when it gets below freezing is to have a camping trip. I have had the whole weekend to relax, and it has been wonderful.
IOON: No classes for me Wed-Fri! This is starting to look like a very good week.
Yes! Yes! YES! What feeling can replace the vital stinging of the cheeks, the puffs of breath, the rime-encrusted eyelashes?

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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:
Spoiler
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."

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
Really wishing Ele would get his butt out of bed and onto the forums, because I can't use the home phone, and no-one has any credit so I can't call him, so all I have to do is wait for ages on end until he freaking gets on here because I'm getting evicted and my stupid roommate is an idiot who blames all of life's problems on everyone but himself so he's kicking my boyfriend and I out and rawr I just want to punch something. (needing to contact Ele 'cause his place is where I'd be staying)

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.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
Hey, if I don't fall all the way on the ground, I can save some face by pretending it was intentional.
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.
Mwahahaha

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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.
Hello mi Ovis dulcis.
It depends on the time of day. Sometimes speed is an asset
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. ;___;
But I do look forwards to that melee.Last edited by Kneenibble; 2012-11-19 at 12:02 AM.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
All this talk of Winter is making me jealous. I will visit a place with snow before I die. Or I shall construct a weather machine and alter the climate in my local area.
One moment...
*nearly dies from laughter*
That joke was adorable!
My... That cake must be worth a king's ransom...
Good work. I am sure your friend would get a good laugh out of it.
Also, Happy Birthday!

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
b-rrrrrr-rraaaambles. It IS a fun word.
Hi again!
I too am suffering this plaguitious vice of work. Between the chemical formulas to be bound and philosophical writing, I can not find the time to take the notes on artistic qualities from the online lecture. I wish there was more time.
I do indeed look forward to the feeling of "Oh yeeeeeeees I just BEAT A PERSON WITH AN ARMY OMG I NEVER GET THIS FAR". If I had known the army of the poor protoss I was murdering was currently occupied with a engagement, I would have come to join that fight, rather than slaughter innocent probes and robots.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
Do not pretend that you took no pleasure from that slaughter! But I shall know better than to underestimate you next game, and plan to mass Ghosts and lay nuclear winter upon your gates. All I need is Ghosts. Lots and lots of Ghosts. *eye twitch*
Time, time, never enough time... I know the pain. The term never ends: the term ends too soon. Where are these people who can manage their time, who get things done without stress and staying up late?!
Elemental, when you call Mynxae, could you please pretend that the white budgie agent Archangel woke you up because I told him to? It would make me so happy

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
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.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

Haven't eaten in about 24hrs. Haven't slept in nearly two days. Without my boyfriend now as well, forcefully separated (not broken up). Think it'd be easier to just go insane and starve.

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
In this case, I did so in the very quote you wrote your suggestion beneath.
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?
...
*wishes he had snow to shovel for four hours*
I don't know if this is standard for the entire world, or more of a regional thing, but the average temperature of freezers around these parts is -18oC, which, while hardly unreachable for outdoor temperatures, is nothing I would call "a little below freezing".
ION:
Ugh, what a night. I got almost seven and a half hour of sleep, which should be well enough for me, but I'm just as tired as when I went to bed. And this is going to be a long day...Clouddreamer Teddy by me, high above the world, far beyond its matters...

Re: Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185
No, you did not. Your exact words were:
No mention of it at all.
---
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.
