Lost my phone on the bus, waited around for the bus to come back through, had barely stepped onto the bus before the bus driver handed my phone to me.

How did he know? v:

Bus drivers are only half a step down from janitors. They know.

I'm 5 years old.

I'm 5 years old.

I'm ten!

Since your body replaces all of its cells over the course of about 10 years. In effect, I am ten.

I thought it was seven? Maybe that's refering to the actual molecules.

[Darvi]

Toony knows that it's actually 5.

We found that B-mesons can flip between matter and antimatter.

HOORAY SCIENCE!

Now I'm imagining a gun that shoots a beam of matter and a beam of anti-matter at such an angle that it explodes in the face of whoever or whatever you point it at.

So yeah, Tangents are still a part of who I am.

But what if you're shooting at something that doesn't have a face?

EDIT: Does anyone want to play Mafia? Because the beginner's game needs two three replacements and it's still day one.

[Frumple]

Built in functionality such that it uses the anti-matter stream to etch a little smiley face into whatever you're aiming at. Then it explodes in the newly created face.

From MaximumZero's Guide to Facepunching: If it has no face, draw one with a sharpie.

Oh great. Now I'm going to pop in, and I really don't have the spare time at the moment. :x

[misko27]

I want to, but... No, must resist. Must do work.

[Vector]

I could, but I don't think anyone would appreciate it >_>


Happy news: I figured out that a large part of my recent depression is probably a literal math addiction.  Withdrawal symptoms... the reason why I say that is because the moment that one of my courses this semester finally started to give an interesting proof, I suddenly felt a giddiness, a profound pleasure, an unexpected satisfaction... and I wanted very badly to go scurry off and get myself some more.  The feeling of wearing a wet blanket dissipated.

It's funny, but I think it explains a lot.  I should go find a textbook to work through all leisurely, once I've cleared out my to-do list a little bit more.


ETA: I also got a very nice compliment today.  I was telling someone that more exposure to math was lifting my depression, so I was more strongly considering going into the field as a necessity than an option, and he told me that he thought I should--because he'd always thought I was the smartest member of our little five-person study group last semester, even though I was really struggling with the material.

Isn't that fantastic?  I feel a lot better.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

As long as it isn't crystal math.

United humanity is the best thing since sliced bread.

I want to watch that sitcom.
