Bloody hell, why do moments of creative inspiration have to so often be so inconvenient?
To make them unapproachable by the common folk and thus by being unapproachable does it become special.
The illuminati control when you have moments of inspiration so you can't act on it These moments happen at inconvenient times so only the highborn can act on them. Plebs are usually too busy trying to not starve to death.

I'd hate to kill the joke but I thought "moments" was "monuments"

They can be monuments too, as long as you got money.

Sounded like a monumental miscommunication to me.

Wait shouldn't the England/Wales venn also encompass N-Ireland?
Or is it the same as Scotland?
I believe that red labels describe the circle, and blue circles describe the things within it. That said, I don't know what the Wales+England circle would be labeled.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Actually it seems I asked a really stupid question.
Wales is a part of the Kingdom of England (unlike Scotland or Northern Ireland), though it used to be a separate principality under it. Now there isn't really a title tied to it, but it recently got its own legislature.
Indeed. Full title is the Kingdom of England and Wales, but everyone drops the "and Wales" bit because fuck Wales.

Reject this post-count seeking foolery, it brings only suffering and destruction, the Buddha didn't get wise off no shitposting
This is like a Bill Gates saying "Money? Nah, that only brings you suffering!"
Well he's doing jack all with his donation despite using up most of his fortune. I don't think he's too chuffed about how irrelevant he is now that he's not developing tech.

The fact that Bill Gates, the richest man on the world probably, can't fix a single problem is kind of proof that money can't solve everything.

Got pulled over by a cop while walking with my bike. He asked me if I lived around here and where I was going, then drove off after I answered.



Besides that, according to the pedometer on my 3DS, I walked 3024 steps from my bedroom to my bike, then to the dollar store*, then to the grocery store**, then to the convenience store*** on the way home, then to put my bike away, then back to my bedroom.


*For groceries.
**For meats, dairy, and fresh plant matter that the dollar store generally doesn't carry.
***Because I am really goddamned hungry after all that walking.

Why were you walking a bike instead of just plain walking?

Well, ordinarily I'd ride the bike, but I can't get my leg over the seat while wearing the heavy overcoat I normally wear when it's this cold. I still need the basket on the bike to carry my groceries.

Kinda like how the full title is "The United States of America" but everyone either drops the "of America" or the "The United States of", because it's too much work to say the whole thing. :P

He just wanted to make sure you weren't going to take the bike into a dark alley and rape it, that's all.
