The Pitfalls of MSN Messenger
Today you get a little snippet of a conversation between Nick (“Philos”) and I (“Math Rock…”) because I have nothing else to blog about.
Philos says: son of a bitch my colon isn’t working
Math Rock: My Anti-Drug. Sort Of. says: Um, I’m sorry
Math Rock: My Anti-Drug. Sort Of. says: Maybe you should go to the doctor
Philos says: no no no
Philos says: on the keyboard
Math Rock: My Anti-Drug. Sort Of. says: Ohhh, THAT colon
Philos says: LOL
Math Rock: My Anti-Drug. Sort Of. says: Hahaha, wow, I fail
Philos says: that was hilarious
Math Rock: My Anti-Drug. Sort Of. says: I think the doctor should take a look at your semicolon, too—I heard if that stops working you have serious problems
Philos says: bahahahaha
Silly MSN Conversations with Maggie
Haha, Maggie, we are weird people when we get on MSN Messenger together.
For some reason I decided to read our message history tonight. Here are some of our more random, um, “conversations.” Maggie’s in blue, I’m in red.
hi, i’m wearing pants!
Aloha! I’m wearing tacos!
Oh noes! They’ll still stone you!
so I’ll be stoned?
The bad kind, not the fun kind!
Coming back up, are you? (forgive how sexual that sounds)
yay cookies.
Oh yes. Yes yes yes.
good time to do laundry, i guess.
or maybe it’s a plot of the penguins
Prime mating time, perhaps??
hmmm do the penguins require washing machines to mate?
Reminds them of shifting glaciers
ah
so the penguins are ordering me to do laundry at two AM because they’re all horny?
Heck, if I were a penguin, that’s what I’d be doing
heck, that’s what i’d be doing even if i weren’t a penguin…
I think I’ll be purple for a while…
Purple=sex!
yay sex!
I basically have a grab bag of insanity for my classes (this was last spring, when I was only taking 20 credits. Haha, I had no idea what I had in store for myself later…)
I’d do Amazon
And I’d buy the book from there, too
But it’s HUMP DAY!
and the ones who get offended if something you say is even *slightly* sexual?
OMG THATS SEXUAL YOUR TEH ANTYCRIST
those people need to die.
A horrible, penis-filled death
why does the phrase “penis-filled death” make me laugh?
Cause it’s got the words “penis” and “filled” in it and they’re both funny words when put together?
I want a penis-filled death
Or life
need distraction from brain… AUGH!
Sounds like a good reason to go milk pirates (in reference to the Hebrides songs we played last spring. Haha, wow, this sounds really disturbing without that reference…well, I guess “even more disturbing” I should say).
The most I’ve ever truly done in a math class was draw a little flip book of a stick figure tripping over pi
I spent geometry making fun of perfect squares and got detention for it
“Why aren’t there perfect hexagons LOL” kind of crap
I totally deserved detention
I have this sudden desire to go streaking down my hall…
With all the poking we’ve been doing on Facebook, shouldn’t we have crapped out a combined 200 or so kids by now?
I cannot arrest children for being rude.
what a lame rule.
I totally arrest children for that all the time
I think I’d like to die in the making of the bonfire that destroys the Sistine Chapel…
that could be fun.
omg jesus’ ass is on f–*bursts into flames*
If I die doing that, I want the full description of what I was doing on my tombstone…
Done
hey, i just realized that my week started today…
Ah
Happy MMSAP!
that’s a fun acronym…
sounds like a bad song…
Like MMMBop!!
Foooood yaa
German, yaa
I didn’t know studying Islam made me speak with “yaa” at the end of each sentence
Yaa
well, try not to let Islam destroy thine mind.
take a RAB break.
I just might
And then I’ll DO SOME MOTHERFUCKIN’ DRUGS!
I’m staring at pictures of naked people with pizza.
while listening to the Canticle of the Virgin Mary.
Irony?
Does constipation cause arousal?
and can arousal cause constipation?
Haha “Oh god honey that was so amaz–oh, hold on. Laxative time.”
All of these are from the night we spent in Ridenbaugh before going down to Boise.
I want to (flap) you (the “(flap)” was a little animated stick figure flapping his penis around. Just FYI.)
LOL
LOL
LOL
LOL
STFU I try to do flash!
Your music sucks!
I know, I know!
Turn your damn music off, hippie!
You’re no fun, George!
My teeth are wooden, what do you want!?!?!
Why aren’t you people talking to me?!
I’m right here!
LOL
THAT IS NOT A SUFFICIENT RESPONSE! I HATE YOU!
I still want to (flap) you
I want to play truth or dare, does that mean I’m a preteen?
wifey
wifey!
wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey!! wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey wifey
Shut the hell up!
Good times. We’ll definitely have to hang out in Ridenbaugh before we go down to wherever the hell we’re going this year. Yay!
Waiter! There’s an Ego in my Eggo!
(Two years later edit: hahaha, ignore all this. What drama we lived in back then, eh?)
Ah, I hate it when this kind of thing happens.
I was going to leave this alone, I was going to let it all just go on, but recent events have, shall we say, forced my blogging hand, and therefore there will be a blog about it now from me. Just one, so that I can state my stance, then I’ll drop it.
Put it simply, I hate it when my friends have disagreements and stop talking to one another. It depresses me and causes tension, not to mention shoots a couple of my plans for the end of the semester to hell. For the record, I’m not saying “you all need to be friends again and love each other, etc., etc.!” I know the situation, I know the circumstances, and, thanks to frequenting the table as much as I’ve been doing, have heard it from many peoples’ perspectives. I have my opinions but they will remain silent because, hey, they’re just my opinions and have no value here whatsoever. What’s done is done.
That being said, here’s point two: I plan on remaining friends with all parties involved. That’s it, end of story. I know this might make one or more of you mad (or it may not—nobody’s really said anything about that), but it’s what I’m going to do. I was friends with all of you before this started, and I’m going to remain friends with all of you now that it’s happened. If any of you have an issue with this, please tell me, ‘cause I’d like to know. It’s either going to be all of you or none of you if issues flair up (I am not choosing sides, forget it), and I’d much prefer it to be all of you, as the “none of you” option would leave me pretty much friendless when marching band starts up again in the fall, and that would suck.
I will remain a sounding board for any of you who need to talk/complain/vent about things (related to this or in general), but keep in mind that that applies to all of you. My friendship with all parties will continue on, and I’m not going to apologize for it if it turns out that that’s a problem.
I will, for the sake of this situation, remain entirely neutral; I just thought it necessary for me to let you know where I stood. I may sound a bit overdramatic about it, but it’s big enough to cause the issues that prompted this blog, so from that I draw my justification.
There you go.
The things we do when we’re given messenger and free time…
Hooray!
So Sean gave me two projective personality tests tonight. One I’d taken long ago (so I question my answers a bit because I had the old template still in my head), but the other was new. I’ll just give you my results, just in case you ever take the tests, ‘cause I don’t want to skew yours.
Onward (these are in Sean’s words, by the way):
~I don’t see a lot of value in the status quo
~Anything noteworthy must be done, not discovered
~I have an artistic, visionary personality; I feel unique but a little disjointed from my surroundings
~I have a fairly broad group of friends; my friends are there, but not “inside” my circle
~my idea of what I want in a romantic partner is un-developed. Right now I don’t have a template, so at the moment “lover” is just a special case of “friend”
~I don’t see difficulties as being added factors, just the normal surroundings “flaring up.” I feel like I can weather the difficulty
~My material possessions are decorative and aesthetic, and they’re important to me
~Knowledge is important to me (but it doesn’t open anything…long story)
~I feel like things will block my path that I have no way of defeating, but they can be circumnavigated
~My love life is “big and scary.” I go in prepared and try to keep myself as safe as possible from getting pulled under
~I hide from danger until it goes away, but I try to approach with a solution as custom-tailored as possible
Hooray for early morning conversations!

This is one of Claudia’s blog titles if and only if it contains a bad joke about biconditionals
Three points of interest today!
1. That Symbolic Logic test? Yeah, I rocked it.
142/150. I didn’t miss a single point on the three proofs. I lost all my points because I did a truth table with three variables, P, Q, and R, when there were only two variables in the sentence I was trying to table. Sad. But hey, I got an A, and I rocked those proofs. I’m happy.
2. Finally, I’ve found someone with whom I can make Godot jokes!
It’s another conversation with Sean, of course.
Action Leibniz! says:
Wow, there are 8 people on the wait list for Buddhism
Action Leibniz! says:
Huh
Giant Enemy Crab says:
“Waiting for Buddhism”
Giant Enemy Crab says:
haha, only two are on the waitlist for Godot
Action Leibniz! says:
Hahahaha
Action Leibniz! says:
BECKETT 101: Godot
Action Leibniz! says:
Class size limit: 0
Giant Enemy Crab says:
hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says:
exactly
Action Leibniz! says:
Location: a country road. A tree.
Giant Enemy Crab says:
but it’ll be 1 when Godot comes
Giant Enemy Crab says:
tomorrow
Action Leibniz! says:
Hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says:
maybe
Action Leibniz! says:
We need to offer that class
Giant Enemy Crab says:
haha, I’d teach it
Giant Enemy Crab says:
of course, I’d teach anything where I think they’d appreciate a monologue
Action Leibniz! says:
Haha, you could always tell students class is cancelled ’cause Godot couldn’t make it that day, but he’ll be here tomorrow
Action Leibniz! says:
Post it on Blackboard
Giant Enemy Crab says:
hahahahahah
Giant Enemy Crab says:
that’d be AMAZING
Giant Enemy Crab says:
they’d show up and we’d sit around for ten minutes, then let them go
Giant Enemy Crab says:
haha, I’d tell them I was grading attendence so they’d have to come
Giant Enemy Crab says:
and then just give everyone an A for playing
Action Leibniz! says:
Orchestrate it so that the other minor characters would show up and actually start acting the play out
Action Leibniz! says:
Confuse everybody
Giant Enemy Crab says:
yeah
Giant Enemy Crab says:
“We have a guest speaker today”
Action Leibniz! says:
Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says:
“Seeing as how Godot’s been delayed…”
Giant Enemy Crab says:
yeah!

Remember that Leibniz action figure I linked to a few days ago? Apparently, this guy did all the major philosophers up to Quine (though I must admit, the last one on that list I’ve ever heard of was Wittgenstein).
OH MY GOD these are funny if you know anything about the philosophers.
Favorites: St. Anselm, Descartes (with laser vision and clear and distinct punching action!), Leibniz (of course), and Berkeley.
Seriously, April must be “find really awesome crap on the internet” month.
This may very well get linked to on Facebook, I’m not sure yet. But I’m pretty sure I’m going to print them out and stick them all over my door.
Yeah, it’s these little things that make life worth living.
“A barrel-chested action figure with an enormous wig is objectively funny.”
If Genghis Khan, You Can, Too! (Too bad Immanuel Kant)
I like to think it’s rare for me to make a request of my friends (aside from the constant “read my blogs!” and “listen to me rant and rave at the table about the incompetence of the U of I!”), but I feel this request is an important one, especially considering a lot of the events that have been going on recently. Actually, I don’t really know if this is a “request” per say—more of a “keep this in mind if you ever need it” kind of thing…ah, screw it. I don’t know what it is. Just read, you shall see.
I know, for the vast majority of you (heck, maybe all of you), that when you’re in a situation and you need someone to talk to/rant or vent to/bounce ideas off of/get advice from, you probably don’t automatically think of me. This I would like to change.
I know I haven’t done my best in building up my reputation as a friend who is always there physically, who always is there when you need a hug or you need face-to-face communication. That’s my fault. But there is something I want you all to know: I am always there for you—if not physically, then over messenger or over the phone (when it’s charged, haha) if you need anything. And if you need it, I’m willing at any time, day or night, to drop what I’m doing and be with you. This goes for every last one of you, no exceptions.
I guess I’m asking you to trust me, and that probably sounds really dumb, because I probably haven’t given you enough reason to trust me. Well, here’s my little explanation for why you should and why I want you to. I guess I chalk it up to the fact that I know that when you’re feeling down, confused, upset, or conflicted, it really helps to have an ear to talk to, to just have someone to talk at that will respond with empathy and genuine concern, and who will simply listen and not pass judgment or break your trust. I’d like to think of myself as that kind of person. Sure, I may not seem that way in casual conversation, but when a friend expresses distress, it does concern me, and I really like to be that person who can be a support during rough times. I may not be perfect at this, but I try, and I like to think I do help.
I also know that it can be hard sometimes to talk about certain problems with even your best friends. And since I’m probably not the primary confidant of any one of you, I think I could be helpful in those situations in which you may find it difficult to talk to those to whom you are closest.
I don’t know. I guess I’d like you all to know that I would like to be that friend that you can go to in any crisis, the one who can listen objectively but with empathy. Because I do care, really. I want you all to know that if you’re having a bad time of things and need someone for whatever reason, don’t hesitate to call on me. I won’t judge you, I won’t betray your trust, and I won’t give advice unless you want it. I’ll just listen.
Yeah, this blog kind of came out of nowhere, but I figured it was time for me to put this into writing for all of you, so that you all know.
Everything’s funny at 4 AM. Especially this.
Sean and I should not be allowed to talk on Messenger to each other so late at night/early in the morning. This particular conversation started about an hour ago, at 3 AM. We’d been talking since about midnight, and at this point Sean was pretty tired. But then I said one damn thing and we talked for another hour.
I have to say, this is probably one of the funniest MSN conversations I’ve ever had. Sean is amazing, I am amazing, and we’re both even more amazing this early in the morning.
I was going to fix the formatting to my standard, but then was all, “screw it, it’s 4 in the morning.” So you get what you get. And as if it needs mentioning, I’m “Action Leibniz!” and he’s “Giant Enemy Crab.”
Action Leibniz! says: Maybe you should go to bed before you purchase a small island or something
Giant Enemy Crab says: I need to be straight-jacketed promptly at midnight
Giant Enemy Crab says: oh man, my own island would rock!
Giant Enemy Crab says: I’m doing that RIGHT NOW
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, I just realized most of my Flash productions are made after midnight
Giant Enemy Crab says: holy gods
Action Leibniz! says: If your theory holds true, that explains a lot
Giant Enemy Crab says: this shit be expensive
Action Leibniz! says: Are you seriouly looking up islands?
Giant Enemy Crab says: well, it’s not like I’m just gonna stumble on to one, is it?\
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, Sean, go to bed!
Giant Enemy Crab says: hold on
Giant Enemy Crab says: I can totally afford this if I kill my whole family for their bank accounts
Action Leibniz! says: Hahahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: [link]
Action Leibniz! says: Looks nice
Giant Enemy Crab says: someone is actually selling AN ENTIRE ISLAND on eBay
Action Leibniz! says: That’s awesome
Action Leibniz! says: At least their feedback score is 100%
Giant Enemy Crab says: hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: well good, that means they didn’t like void the warranty on it first or something
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, imagine the feedback
Giant Enemy Crab says: “product as described: it was actually an island, yes”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: “good value for price: yeah, I guess so, I don’t know how much fuckin’ islands usually go for”
Action Leibniz! says: “Very good climate, friendly natives, would buy from again! A+”
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, yeah
Giant Enemy Crab says: “would totally buy from this seller again, but seriously – how many godsdamn islands do I need?”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: I mean, it’s kinda one of those things where you really only need one for the full effect
Action Leibniz! says: Apparently they usually sell beds
Action Leibniz! says: “Got the bed, slept in it, totally pleased!”
Action Leibniz! says: Awesome feedback
Giant Enemy Crab says: man, this guy likes selling things that cost a lot and you don’t really find yourself shopping for that often
Giant Enemy Crab says: I mean, how many times in the last year have you bought a bed
Giant Enemy Crab says: let alone an island
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: oh, wait
Giant Enemy Crab says: it’s not the whole thing
Giant Enemy Crab says: WELL FUCK HIM, THEN
Giant Enemy Crab says: I’m not paying a million dollars for like part of an island
Giant Enemy Crab says: for that much, I get the whole damn thing!
Action Leibniz! says: I was going to say, that sounds awful cheap for a whole island
Action Leibniz! says: Hmm, personal hurricane bunkers
Action Leibniz! says: And missle silos
Action Leibniz! says: This guy has everything!
Giant Enemy Crab says: wow, I was AFK
Giant Enemy Crab says: missle silos?
Giant Enemy Crab says: for real?
Action Leibniz! says: $2.1
Giant Enemy Crab says: SOLD
Action Leibniz! says: Yeah
Giant Enemy Crab says: bwahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: “shipping costs to: 83843 – not listed”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: fucking FedEx won’t bring my island to me
Giant Enemy Crab says: what, I gotta go over there??
Action Leibniz! says: He never said I had to do that!
Giant Enemy Crab says: this was not in the item description!
Giant Enemy Crab says: I will leave a negative feedback now!
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: feedback: one negative:
Action Leibniz! says: “WHY CAN’T YOU SHIP THIS PIECE OF EARTH TO MOSCOW?”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “I had to go to my island! I paid a MILLION FUCKING DOLLARS, WTF MAN??”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says: Oh man
Giant Enemy Crab says: I love taht
Giant Enemy Crab says: that*
Giant Enemy Crab says: “shipping: see description”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “it’s an island”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “we regret that we can’t send it anywhere”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “it’s pretty much staying right where it is”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “go read a geology textbook”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “or, you know, just go outside now and again”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says: Wow, that’s really funny
Action Leibniz! says: “Island Lake Superior”
Action Leibniz! says: It’s like, this is THE island
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: the one you heard so much about
Giant Enemy Crab says: here’s another one
Giant Enemy Crab says: “shipping: pickup only”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha, really?
Giant Enemy Crab says: why won’t they just let you post “COME ON, THERE IS NO FREAKING WAY THIS IS MOVING FROM WHERE IT CURRENTLY IS LOCATED”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “UNLESS LIKE A HUGE TYPHOON HITS IT BUT WE REALLY DON’T THINK YOU’D LIKE THAT ANY MORE THAN THE POOR BASTARDS WHO LIVE THERE”
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, on the Lake Superior one
Action Leibniz! says: “The beach: words fail to describe it”
Action Leibniz! says: Then there’s a whole paragraph describing it
Giant Enemy Crab says: HAHAHAHA
Giant Enemy Crab says: seriously, I could describe it
Action Leibniz! says: I’ve been to all the beaches, man, and this one is the BEST
Giant Enemy Crab says: “mostly it’s sand, but you’ll notice as you go out there’s more and more water”
Action Leibniz! says: You might notice a point where you can’t breathe anymore. That’s the real deep part of the water
Giant Enemy Crab says: “after a certain point enough water is present that we can safely say the beach has terminated”
Action Leibniz! says: “But that’s not in the auction, you don’t get that, sorry”
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, yeah
Action Leibniz! says: He probably has another auction: Lake Superior–everything BUT the island
Giant Enemy Crab says: “you only paid for the island, not the ocean too”
Giant Enemy Crab says: hahaha
Giant Enemy Crab says: imagine that description
Giant Enemy Crab says: “bargain: we sold some other tard just the island”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says: “You get the good stuff”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “you get fish and water”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “both of which are marketable resources”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “but not to the degree you’re gonna make money”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “let’s not kid ourselves, here”
Action Leibniz! says: “Plus, your property can wash onto theirs in storms and destroy stuff, now how satisfying is THAT? Bid NOW!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “you’ll show them”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “some hurricane comes? they’re FUCKED. you, your stuff just gets moved around some”
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, that would be the best eBay product ever
Giant Enemy Crab says: I’d totally buy Lake Superior off an online auction
Action Leibniz! says: I wonder how much that would go for
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, they’d cancel my FAFSA loans
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: under assets I’d put “Lake Superior” and they’d be like “one thing this guy does not need is more money”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “what’s he gonna try to buy next, betelguese?”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahahaha
Action Leibniz! says: We need galaxies on eBay next
Giant Enemy Crab says: I would buy that without thinking
Action Leibniz! says: That would be so great
Giant Enemy Crab says: “why can’t you pay your rent again?”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “there’s a small planetoid orbiting alpha centauri? preliminary flybys indicate it may be rich in iron deposits?”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “oh man, you mock me now, but wait until the interplanetary mining trade takes off”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “I’ll be rich as shit”
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Action Leibniz! says: Best excuse not to pay rent
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: “don’t worry, I’ll pay up later, with interest!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: just as soon as we develop faster than light travel
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, exactly
Giant Enemy Crab says: now that’s planning ahead
Action Leibniz! says: Though technology to do so is probably on eBay somewhere
Action Leibniz! says: “Go faster than the speed of light using our amazing springy shoes!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, I’m gonna sell a perpetual motion machine
Action Leibniz! says: You’d get a complaint, “It stopped moving”
Action Leibniz! says: “You broke it, no refunds”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “product matched description: not even! it quit after a few hours! poor seller! F—–“
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: semi-perpetual motion machine
Giant Enemy Crab says: it goes on for a bit then stops
Giant Enemy Crab says: it’d be like a little wheel hanging from a rim
Action Leibniz! says: Those should be marketed, people would fall for it so hard
Action Leibniz! says: “They’re getting closer!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “it really works, too!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: science is sure amazing
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: much better feedback
Giant Enemy Crab says: “product matches description: it really did stop after a bit! A+++++++++++++++++”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says: “We didn’t think it would, but after watching it for about fifteen minutes it really did!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: fifteen minutes?
Giant Enemy Crab says: they spun the wheel REALLY HARD
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, “fzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz”
Action Leibniz! says: “Best part: the dog brushed against it and it repeated the WHOLE PROCESS! Man, we didn’t think it would stop the second time, but it did!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: (for best results imagine the expression of someone making the above onomotopeia)
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: (slowly decreasing in pitch to simulate deceleration)
Action Leibniz! says: “New: comes with sound effects!”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “it kinda whirrs a bit”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “review: whirring noise was wrong pitch, but otherwise fine. overall positive experience if you’re willing to make concessions”
Action Leibniz! says: Hahaha
Action Leibniz! says: “That was NOT a B flat whir”
Giant Enemy Crab says: “tried to tune my violin to it: DIDN’T WORK AT ALL”
Action Leibniz! says: “Warning to other users: do not tune from this”
Giant Enemy Crab says: that’s the guy that bought the island but didn’t get Lake Superior
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: he’s still bitter because of erosion
Giant Enemy Crab says: sore loser, that one
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, oh yes
Giant Enemy Crab says: oh shit, it’s 4 now
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, I bet the really poor decisions will begin any time
Giant Enemy Crab says: I’d better go to bed
Action Leibniz! says: You should
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, I should, too
Giant Enemy Crab says: I was wondering if you ever sleep
Action Leibniz! says: When I get around to it
Giant Enemy Crab says: haha, well, talk to you tomorrow
Action Leibniz! says: Haha, okay\
Giant Enemy Crab says: blah, after work
Giant Enemy Crab says: 7 hours is always too long no matter what
Action Leibniz! says: Agreed
Giant Enemy Crab says: then again, I just bid on an island, so I should start saving
Action Leibniz! says: Haha
Giant Enemy Crab says: anyway
Giant Enemy Crab says: おやすみなさい
Action Leibniz! says: Goodnight
Tautologies are really unnecessary. Indeed, tautologies are quite superfluous.
(Really, stop me if my titles get too “out there.”)
World, I present to you a new metaphysical theory on God and the universe.
In a sentence:
It is through Ren’s boobs that God is represented.
Elaboration:
We looked at this through three different philosophical viewpoints (actually I did, everyone else there extrapolated, laughed, or was like “Claudia, what the hell?”)—Descartes, Spinoza, and Leibniz (the Rationalists!).
Descartes
We have to establish some sort of dualism. This task is easily accomplished, due to the fact that there are two boobs. One boob is to represent the substance “mind,” and the other boob is to represent the “material” substance. “I think therefore I’m Ren’s boobs.”
Spinoza
We are Ren’s boobs, and Ren’s boobs are us. Everything is Ren’s boobs. Ren’s boobs are the cause of all things. There is no dualism; the boobs themselves are of the same substance. Oh, and Ren’s boobs can indeed be perceived and understood.
Leibniz
Ren’s boobs are the best of all possible boobs. They are perfectly omnipotent, omnipresent, and good. Ren’s boobs created the world. Therefore, it is because of Ren’s boobs that we live in the best of all possible worlds. There is no other and better world, just as there are no other and better boobs.
Yeah.
Wouldn’t it be awesome if “onomatopoeia” was an onomatopoeia? What kind of sound would that be?
One question: what the hell were these?
These are snippets of various MSN conversations in which I make absolutely no sense at all. These may look like they’re out of place solely because they’re out of context. Au contraire, reader, they look out of place because they simply are out of place. These essentially had nothing to do with anything we were talking about at the time. Quite funny. Rather disturbing. Most of these are from freshman semester.
I love that…”looking for K? Find exactly what you want today”
Experiment:
Dang, it didn’t work
Oh wait! *clicks all links* :P
Plus, I’ll always have Titleist!
Is she mad at me?
Is Aneel mad at me?
Is Aneel even alive?
I don’t accumulate in bone tissue, either…that I know of
Eh…moon, stars, Uranus…
EEGs have shown it
When it’s connected to my head
The inner workings are like a glove
Why? I don’t know
I don’t feel like completing that analogy, cause in fact I just compared pants to a glove
Cause it…
…is fuzzy…
Eh, I’m tired
So I heard Aneel is a pothead now
(like a month later) So I heard Aneel is an alcoholic now
PAMELA ANDERSON!!!
Ah crap, wrong conversation
This was fun.
Quick side note: do you think I can convince the university to let me take 32 credits?
Hyperbole is the best thing EVER!
Haha, I think it’s rather funny that everyone else is posting all these apology blogs and bulletins, but that’s probably because of the fact that I’m feeling the exact opposite—I’ve been apologizing all freaking week for my actions when really, there’s been no need to.
I love the fact that I’ve gotten absolutely no support from anyone with regards to how I’m handling things. That’s a good feeling when you had already been confused over what to do.
But you know what? I’m not confused anymore. I know what I’m doing, and screw you all if you’re going to hold such low opinions of me that you don’t think I can make the right choices. ’Cause I did. And I’m glad.
So shut up and leave me alone if all you’re going to do is criticize me.
I almost flew off the handle last night until I realized I didn’t have wings…
Ahh, Sean, where would I be without you?
Well, I’d be looking up rarely used words online at 2:00 in the morning all alone, that’s where.
This was fun. It was inspired by our Psych of Emotion class, in which our teacher claimed there was no exact English word for the German word Schadenfreude. It turns out there is—it’s epicaricacy. We found it on this online dictionary full of a bunch of rarely used words.
So here are some interesting ones in my opinion, plus some fun snippets of our conversation.
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: this is a goldmine for confusing people
*hsus says: hell yes
*hsus says: bookmarked
Xenodocheiorology: love of hotels and inns
Acritochromacy: colorblindness
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Tittup

*hsus says: wow, you really need to be a teacher
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Haha
*hsus says: ‘cos for some reason that fits perfectly
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Final exam: “Tittup or F in the class. It’s up to you to figure out what that means”
*hsus says: haha
*hsus says: that’s cruel
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: But oh so funny
Adoxography: good writing on a trivial subject
Adscititious: superfluous
*hsus says: “oh, we’re covering this?”
*hsus says: “why, do you think we shouldn’t?”
*hsus says: “well, I’m just saying it’s a bit…adscititious is all”
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Haha
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: “But…but we’re not talking about acid at all”
Sacerdotophrenia: clerical stage fright
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Haha, schediasm

Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Same here
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: And essentially every other paper I’ve written/will write
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Freud paper? OH SHIT
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Doctorate thesis? OH SHIT
Obdormition: when a limb “goes to sleep”
Steatopygous: pertaining to or characterized by a large buttocks
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Parasigmatism
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Inability to pronounce the sound “s”
*hsus says: awesome
Leibniz Rocks My Socks says: Which would suck to tell someone you have, seeing as it has two “s”s in it
*hsus says: “I have para-…para-…fuck it”
Perissotomist: a knife-happy surgeon
I’m…DECAYING!!!
Trickery regarding sex is fun. And yes, Nick’s name is indeed “Brother Viagra.” That alone is funny. Read each line one at a time to get the full effect of an MSN conversation.

Brother Viagra says: okay I’ll tell you
Brother Viagra says: but don’t be shocked
“noobs;” is a command in SAS!! says: Okay
Brother Viagra says: we got home from the show at around midnight
Brother Viagra says: she was tired and so was I, but we had been making out at the show
Brother Viagra says: so I go, “I’m really tired”
Brother Viagra says: and she goes “me too”
Brother Viagra says: and then she goes “let’s do something to wake ourselves back up”
Brother Viagra says: so we fool around in the kitchen for awhile
Brother Viagra says: then we go to bed and have some amazingly hot…
Brother Viagra says: steamy…
Brother Viagra says: stimulating…
Brother Viagra says: coffee
“noobs;” is a command in SAS!! says: Haha!
Brother Viagra says: had you going there, didn’t I?

Brother Viagra says: so we were jazzed up all night and we’ve been up until now.
“noobs;” is a command in SAS!! says: You’re hilarious.
Brother Viagra says: i know
Also this:
Not as good as the Yogi Bear thing, but I still think it’s hilarious.
“What the fuck would Kevin Bacon do?!”

HOLLY CARP IS REAL
Holly Carp now has a Facebook. And in case you weren’t there and are wondering what the hell I’m talking about and what the big deal is, Holly Carp is an individual Maggie and I discovered on the night before the band trip down to Boise, the night we stayed up all night and were IM-ing each other while sitting right next to each other.
And in case you’re not on Facebook and want to know of this wonderful being, here is her profile:
Activities: being awesome, quoting the Bible verbatim, quoting the fish equivalent of the Bible verbatim, confounding the most genius of the human species, swimming, looking for a mate to fertilize my eggs, making fishy faces at confused passers-by, holding talk therapy groups for sharks confused about their sexuality, marketing my self-help video entitled “Who Needs a Doral Fin When You’ve Got a Name That is Commonly Confused with the Word “Crap”?”, bumming rides off of people, DJ-ing, playing solitaire, solving live’s mysteries, calling the operator and having lengthy discussions about why they chose their career, convincing people I’m real, being a stunt double for Dr. Phil, eating whatever the hell carp eat, break dancing.
Interests: philosophy, contact sports, optometry, humans’ depletion of natural resources and how we’re all screwed, Nebraska, the “Holly Carp Is Real” Campaign, WSU and their fascination with large cats, WSU and their placement of the cattle breeding pen in close proximity to the captive bear area, volleyball, other carp.
Favorite Music: Katrina and the Waves, The Backstreet Boys, Kenny G.
Favorite TV Shows: The Dr. Phil Show
Favorite Movies: Finding Nemo
Favorite Books: The World According to Carp, How to Keep Koi, Goldfish and Other Carp, Carp Fishing on Valium, Die Like the Carp!, Carp in the Bathtub, Richard Scarry’s Best First Book Ever.
Favorite Quotes: “Holly Carp is real.”
About Me: I am Holly Carp. I am real. I type in all-caps because I’m just that important. I enjoy long walks on the beach, or preferably in the water itself, me being a carp and all.
I am all-knowing and all-powerful. My powers of logic and deduction astonish even the most intelligent of men, including Stephen Hawking, one of many whom I have single-handedly beat at swimming.
I won the gold medal in Awesome in the first Olympic games.
I alone built five miles of the Great Wall of China.
I fantasize nightly of a schooner whose love I was lucky enough to possess one lonely night when the waters were still and our hearts were a-flutter with true love.
I’m looking to find a man of similar interests and who has big gills. Seriously though, gill size doesn’t matter. But I’d like his to be big.
Like, huge.
Seriously.
I also noticed a few minutes ago that in the religious views is typed, “I worship cod,” which rhymes nicely with “I worship god.”
I’m funny.
Shoutout to Misty
You were awesome.
So…what else was I going to blog about?
Seriously, I can’t remember.
I think Aneel’s woman-coat threw me.
Haha, these are great
I have recently been made aware of this:
But why wasn’t I ever told of these?!
I am now amused.
Good memories. Good memories.
And Matt, I can’t tell if you’re amused or disturbed during that last one.
“Have a kitty!”
Party all night!
Dear lord.
I’m writing this down sometime on the bus ride down to Boise. Everyone around me’s asleep and I’ve seemed to have woken up for some unknown reason. So here I go with the blog for yesterday/last night/this morning/right now.
What last night entailed:
~Numa Numa dancing
~Freaking out multiple people inhabiting Ridenbaugh (via Numa Numa dancing)
~Quite a bit of lip-synching to Kansas’ “Carry On Wayward Son”
~My spending a good hour on Flash that led to a good 15 seconds of total animation
~Running around shoeless/shirtless in Ridenbaugh
~Running around shoeless/shirtless outside in the rain
~Making fun of Matt’s snoring
~Holly carp
~George Washington hating Maggie’s music
~Yogi bear, bitch!
~Instant messaging gone wild!
~My love affair with a phonebook
~Giving said phonebook a lap dance or two (or three)
~This masterful work:
“Will you wuv me?”
~The beginnings of what I believe will be a weekend-long struggle with losing my voice
Oh my. That’s all I have to say. Did I miss anything?
Apologies in advance, Maggie
Maggie, if I ever make plans with you and I show up two hours late, will you hate me forever? Cause you did in my dream and it was quite depressing.
I don’t remember much of the details of this particular dream, but I’ll try to lay out the basics for you. Here’s the scene: it’s winter, and to my knowledge in the dream I had previously made some plans with Maggie to meet her in the Ag Sci lab (where else?) at some time later in the afternoon. Well, I’m basically dinking around the entire day—I fool around in my dorm room, I go and make snowmen outside Wallace, I talk to a priest (???)—I carry on for hours on end before I realize—oh crap!—I need to meet Maggie and I’m at least two hours late. At this point I’m up in the computer lab in the Ag Sci, so I run down the stairs and see Maggie there, and she is pissed off! She starts screaming at me, “where the fuck have you been, I’ve been waiting here for two hours! What could possibly have taken you so long?” She then proceeds to give me a good slap across the face and then walked out. I stand there for a little while, rather dazed.
Then I go take a Spanish class from my Korean math teacher.
Don’t ask me to explain, because I have no idea.
And Maggie, I don’t think you ever have to worry about this situation ever occurring because it’s rare that I’m ever even five minutes late for anything.
Eggs! Everywhere! MAKE IT STOP!
Nick, you freaking Nostradamus.
Man, I don’t know how you did it, but you somehow told the future (unless, of course, you were somehow involved, in which case this blog title and the body of the blog following it are rendered meaningless).
Back story: earlier today once I got off school I was talking to Nick over Messenger. He says something to the effect of, “now that I’m twenty, I should have special powers. Like being able to predict the future.” Then, jokingly, he says, “I predict that there will be a fire tonight!”
What happened: so I’m sitting in my room tonight at 11:30, just minding my own business, when suddenly I hear this awful buzzing noise which, after about five seconds, I realize is the fire drill. I’m in my pajamas at this point and my room is a disaster area, so it takes me about two minutes to find my coat and my keys and drag my butt outside.
Turns out there was a fire, but this fire was from a burning pan of Spam down in the kitchen, started by none other than our hall president.
Yeah. So that’s why the entire population of McConnell was standing out in the street at 11:30 tonight: freaking Spam.
Nick, you’re amazing with your predictions. Now tell me, will I get a 4.0 all through college?
And happy birthday man, by the way. You’re freaking awesome.
“So here is little-bitty song and dance from me, Vladimir Putin!”
Haha, oh my. A fair warning for all of you: unless you actually enjoy my loudness, my obnoxiousness, my stupid jokes, my never-ending laughing at my own stupid jokes, and my…well…let’s just call it my “naivety”, sit as far away from me as you possibly can if you must be on the same bus as me. Just letting you know.
So, today was a rather uneventful day…until the incident(s) with the vibrating phone(s) and the hour-long bus ride to Pullman.
Things we pondered included (most of this you missed, Matt—this is here for you!):
The existential crisis!
My new idea: a blank fortuneteller is an analogy to the human condition. More elaboration on this idea (what I shall call “The Fortune Theory”) in a later blog, once I get it all worked out. Promise.
What birthed Pullman
Yeah. I said something to the effect of, “I wonder what birthed Pullman?” And then came up with this whole idea of a Celestial Mother crapping out Pullman, peeing out Moscow, and various other things for Troy, Genesee, and Potlatch. This was extremely humorous about two hours ago.
How Troy (the Troy in Idaho) got its name
“There was this chick named Helen and the guys were all OMFG horse!”
Low Rider: The Musical
I couldn’t get the song Low Rider out of my head, so Jessie and I, of course, started singing it. I don’t quite know how I got to the point of the song becoming a musical, but I did, and now it shall be, and it will star Millard Fillmore and will include at least one scene from Titanic.
Fun times, fun times.
The ride to Boise will be fun, hehe…
