Sorry to double post, but I have a question for Andrew. Since you seem well read on Nordic literature, do you have any suggestions on what versions of Poetic and Prose Edda to buy? It seems like on every translation, there's at least one person claiming that they completely mistranslated entire sections or changed it to…

I really should reread Lord of the Rings. I read them when I was nine or ten, so I have no doubt that I missed most details outside of the main plot. I know that Anglo-Saxon literature served as the main inspiration for his works, along with some Finnish, Greek, and Biblical influences, so I would be surprised if there…

Just keep in mind that MTV finds the people who fit all the negative stereotypes for whatever topic their show is, and amplifies it times ten. If MTV was an accurate portrayal of anything, all Puerto Ricans would be prostitutes and gang members, all people from New Jersey would be orange douchebags who just drink and fuck,…

Once I actually get around to it, I found online copies of the Nibelungenlied, the Kalevala, and stuff like that. It would be nicer if I could read them as actual printed books instead of on my computer, but reading them for free is good.

I have the opposite problem; I can't hear anything from my headset, but the mic works perfectly. I never use it anymore, though, and if I need to I can just wear some earbuds that do work underneath.

Happy birthday Matt!

As I said in Marios birthday thread, I'm a horrible person for taking so long. Happy birthday!

We finally have snow on the ground here. I drove in the snow for the first time here, and didn't freak out like many people who have lived in Connecticut for years seem to. You would think they might have figured out how to eventually, but apparantly not.

Really? I only see 8. Or is the last one hiding inside another ninja present?

Happy Birthday Behemoth!

I've heard that there are eleven dimensions, because the eleventh one is what allows the five superstring theories to be unified. Don't even ask me what that means, I'm just paraphrasing Michio Kaku at this point. I've tried to read about it, but I don't have enough physics knowledge to understand any of it beyond the…

This might not be so amusing for Lauren. http://www.newser.com/story/74400/texas-accidentally-bans-straight-marriage.html?utm_source=addthis&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=story

Wow, how'd I miss that? I might have participated if I knew.

ALL-CAPS DAY? SO IT IS! IT HAD COMPLETELY SLIPPED MY MIND!

I always keep an emergeny supply of bacon ready for intravenous administration.

I was going to give myself a harem of fourteen year old girls with the bodies of twenty year olds, but this seemed easier.

I wish I still had my party hard avatar.

I think they should sell pocket sized Michio Kakus that people can pull out to answer questions and settle physics disputes. I need one of those so badly.

I'm not drunk, but I did just smoke with my sister and and want to tell you all I love you all. Sometimes I feel hesitant about posting even though I've been a member for a while, but that doesn't mean I don't love you all.

I'm not the only one who tried to check the mouse-over text, right?

Why not? Human evolution has slowed to a crawl, that could be just the jump start we need.

Happy Birthday! This kind of bothered me back in Blue version.

Junior year is probably the hardest year of high school. Enough people will have senioritis next year that teachers tend to ease up on the work load, so just make it through this year, you'll be fine.

Fine, the sins don't have weight, they're just being drawn towards hell by Satan. And since this hypothesis is being altered to account for discrepancies, it's science.
-
Yes, there's a chance. There's also a chance that the theory of gravity is wrong, and we fall because the weight of our sins keeps us from floating up to heaven. Does that mean we should give this a lot of consideration? Probably not, because most people would agree it's a very small chance.

Well, since he wasn't even in the balloon, I don't feel as bad that I was watching the live stream while listening to "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen. I could not stop laughing.

Well, now that I look out my window, it is accumulating a bit. I think we're supposed to get some more over the weekend, too.
