Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
So, I noticed when coming home from work that, hanging bright in the cloudless sky was the moon, full as can be. Except it's red. That's both fascinating, and a little creepy all the same...

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
The Moon can also look red during a lunar eclipse (e.g. when the Earth's shadow blocks sunlight from reaching it), but I don't know if one of those is due in your area, Darlk Shadow.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
Yeah, there are some pretty bad forest fires burning throughout BC. Looking outside right now, the sky is definitely a reddish tinge. Not as bad as a few years back, but that one's was close by.
Nah, no lunar eclipse for another year or two. Can't remember which. Or, so said the site I was looking at when checking out the timing for the solar eclipse. Almost certainly the fires.The stars predict tomorrow you'll wake up, do a bunch of stuff, and then go back to sleep.~ That's your horoscope for today.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
This was a strange night.
I woke up at around midnight, horrified. No dreams (none that I remember - and I usually remember the horror dreams) - just flat out bad feeling of something horrible happening.
Fifty kilometers from me, my wife woke up at around 1 AM, filled with dread - she had a bad dream about our daughter.
Our daughter was also crying from sleep.
And this morning, my colleague told me she also woke up, at 2 AM. Same symptoms as me.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
I only had a dream where I was aggressively opposing my university's new text base. It uses Arial. I had pretty much written a manifesto about why this was a bad move.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
No dreams here. Which, as far as I'm concerned, is a good thing, considering my last dream involved me getting killed by a cougar in my own house. Thankfully it was a dreamstate of mild resignation instead of terror, but... still. I'm fine with not going through that again.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
No nightmares nor dread for me last night, nor in day. I did dream a few nights ago about a bear following me. It ended up licking my hand, but some unidentifiable friend of mine (I actually remember her appearance, she just didn't look like anyone I can recall, but my dream classified her as a known friend) tried to shoot the bear, missed catastrophically, and hit a known friend of mine right in the shoulder. I remember the look of the exit wound, and how she reacted with a "I'm dying really fast here" in a sort shell-shocked objective tone (and a fashion very like her) while her boyfriend and I tried fruitlessly to stop the bleeding with our hands. The fact that I didn't wake up horrified is almost horrifying in and on itself (except the brain works in mysterious ways, so meh).

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
The funny thing is, that's really similar in experience, if not details, to what I experienced with mine. Like, it took place partially in an area that was basically unrecognizable, but dream-me knew it as the backyard to the house I grew up in. And while dying, I remember feeling myself fading, and just thinking "Well, dang. I guess I'm going to die here, and nobody's going to rescue me. Oh well." (And then I woke up.)

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
Random thought: It's weird (at least in the U.S.) the sort of moral system we've developed around sleeping late. Not oversleeping, mind - that I could see. But the absolute number of when you get up. Like, when I worked late, I was going to bed at 2am and getting up at 10am, and that seemed to a lot of people to be "lazy" and if I overslept by even 30min it was "why are you sleeping in so late?" Contrast with working a morning shift where I went to bed at 9pm and got up at 5am. I found that actually less convenient, but it tended to be seen as somehow morally better.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
Likely a combination of typical working hours and the fact that if you get up later than others, that's more obvious than if you go to bed later.
If you're asleep and someone else isn't, and they want to interact with you, they notice.
If you're awake and someone else is asleep, they won't be trying to interact with you.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
Some people need a thicker skin. I posted on Facebook last night because I express my opinion on a TV show I dislike and one of my Facebook friend got upset at me because ofbhe happen to be a fan of that show and also about what I said about it. I told him that I've a right to voice my opinion on a TV show that I dislike whatever you agree with me or not. And I still stand by my opinion.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
I didn't bash about the fans. I'm just bashing the TV show. The TV show that I'm talking about is Judge Judy. I don't like her TV show because she insults everybody on TV. I don't find her amusing at all and I just wish that her show should be cancelled long ago. She's very abusive.
Update: My friend block me on Facebook because of my opinion on Judge Judy. He's such a baby.Last edited by Bartmanhomer; 2017-09-08 at 11:30 AM.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
Bumblebee larvae can't sting, and generally aren't considered cute, which makes that song even more ****ed up.
I use braces (also known as "curly brackets") to indicate sarcasm. If there are none present, I probably believe what I am saying; should it turn out to be inaccurate trivia, please tell me rather than trying to play along with an apparent joke I don't know I'm making.

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
I was under the impression that given it's a baby bumblebee, that means it's still a bumblebee. A bee larva isn't a proper bee until it becomes a bee.
What I want to know is why everyone assumes she'll die just because she swallowed a fly. It's not like those are big, right?

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
I think it must be a hysteria situation. She accidently swallows a fly and her immediate reaction is to shove a frog down her throat.
Of course it's entirely possible to read the line "I don't know why, I guess she'll die" as "I don't know why I guess she'll die" which changes the meaning a non insignifigent amount?

Re: Dark Shadow's Surprisingly Well-Lit Random Banter #217
I would be on board with that. I hate Arial. Or more specifically, I hate Arial being used for any purpose other than the one it was designed for, which is very small print in Proper Case. On signs and in all caps, it is so much worse than Helvetica in every way. It looks like someone just learned how to use Microsoft Word 97. That stupid R. Look at it. Look at it with its stupid dangly leg. Gaaah.
