So obviously, if robots become our equals, we must circumsise them.

My English has failed me. Our language just does not have the vocabulary to describe something that awesome. I too must have.

How incredibly relevant! Not only did the Economist publish this week articles about advanced robots (posted in SCIENCE news thread) but also one about male circumcision! It is almost as if an Economist writer visits the OB! Circumcision Cutting the competition Jun 19th 2008 From The Economist print edition Mutilating male…

Specialist: In times like these the government often turns to Hollywood for help. You creative filmmakers can think of idea we just can't. General: That's why we've asked you here, M. Night Shyal-amalam. The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Village, all very clever films. But can you use your amazing idea brain now to help us stop…

I tend to avoid being in the lead pack of software users. I'll probably wait a few weeks before getting Firefox 3. I'll stick with my Firefox 2.whatever for now.

I am not doing well, thank you for asking! This country is trying to protect its gene pool from foreign invasion! I have developed an allergy to something, I do not know what. I spent last Friday evening at a hospital, and when the drugs they prescribed me did nothing to contain the reaction spreading throughout my body, I…

I miss World of Darkness, that was a lot of fun. Botches let you have all sorts of fun. I remember in a campaign a long time ago, a friend played a werewolf, and he had botched his bite attack so horribly that he bit his own arm off. The pragmatic type, he decided to use this arm as a club for battering his opponents…

Well, if you like math, then that might not be too bad. It could evolve into something along the lines of engineering, which can be quite profitable. Math can be applicable in some areas, if you let it evolve into a more specified field. Math departments tend to be sausagefests, though, so be warned. In college, there are…

If you want a career in China, and if you make less than $80,000 US a year converted abroad (very likely after college), then you don't pay any US tax. No social security, no medicare, nothing. And, you don't even have to pay for similar taxes in China, since you won't be able to draw from them later in life. I only pay a…

You could do the JET program or something similar and put off your life for a few years.

I personally just like the Economist telling me to expect more Sexbots.

Well, at the very least you should decide what college you'll be a part of, and then work on those gen eds. I was in the college of Arts and Sciences Freshman year, then I just flipped my primary and secondary majors, moving me to the college of business. A few of the credits I took in the College of Arts and Sciences were…

Actually, even if you're not living in Texas, learning Spanish is a really useful skill in the world. It's an important language in the US, and if you can speak Spanish fluently, you can find some good jobs in business in the future, even doing minor translation work. And that can net you a couple extra bucks if you need…

Well, I feel truly wiser for now knowing that sordid tale. I have been here for many years, although my arrival was still post-trauma, thus I never knew the details. My own personal success, I've just started a new girl in the last few weeks, and she doesn't speak English, so we must communicate in Chinese. This is now the…

I had a video of a Chinese friend playing once, but I have no idea where it went. I had a hard drive crash last summer, so it might be forever lost on there until I get off my lazy ass and recover my data. It's kind of hard to describe, but I can draw parallels to other games. You know in DDR how fast your feet go when you…
