Venneh Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Having to write out this man's logic for Chinese discovery and circumnavigation of the world in 1421 for this paper is making my brain implode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venneh Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Oh, trust me, you have no idea. Here are some excerpts, I need someone else's brain to explode too. “A sailing ship is chamban in Colombian, sampanIn China; a raft, balsa in South America and palso in China; a log raft, jangada in Brazil, ziangada in Tamil” “I had lived in Malaysia and remembered well how the morning call of Asiatic hens - “kik-kirki-kee' – was markedly different from the 'cock-a-doodle-doo' of their European counterparts. As I lay in bed [in Peru], I recognized the hamiliar 'kik-kiri-kee' and began to wonder how Asiatic rather than European hens had come to be in Peru” LOGIC, DUDE, LEARNS IT.

Stavros Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Must be a reason they call it bizarrecheaology huh? Does this sort of thing cover the claims that people have found Noah's ark or Atlanta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Yeah, that's one of the big ones. It's fun reading about it, but actually having to explain the logic behind all this stuff is just... oh god. Also, you only have to adjust these maps by 1800 miles to make it accurate. That's not much, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 I think Atlanta is pretty easy to find. It's on a map of Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James D. Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 One of my roommates/friends is very likely about to bail out on me. He's going to give me the money for his rent for May, but I have no idea what I'm going to do now. I'm pretty sure I can afford to go a month without his part of the rent/utilities because I have some extra cash. I'll just have to buckle down and not spend money anywhere it isn't absolutely necessary. But beyond that, I don't know. I hope my homebuyer tax credit comes sooner rather than later, but since it's the U.S. government, I'm not holding my breath. But I'm more mad at myself than anything. I should have known he would do this to me, but I figured he's my friend and I should have faith in him. How foolish I art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolette Opal Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I don't cook for you because you're a fucking slob. I don't clean up messes I don't cause (we don't want kids, remember?), and henceforth my kitchen/dining area/living room is always, ALWAYS a mess. Usually not food mess, usually just clothes mess (though this is getting as disgusting as food mess might be, lately, as you've started doing this senile-ass thing where you put a load in the washing machine and then FUCKING FORGET IT AND THEN IT SITS IN THERE AND ROTS IN ITS OWN MILDEW!). No...you hide the food mess. Like when you spilled a bottle of vegetable oil in the cabinet above the fridge and didn't clean it up. "Oh, I didn't know the top was loose" you say? Well I say this is indicative of a larger pattern of you being really horrible at paying any kind of attention to detail. The cabinet, weeks later, is still sticky. I can't STAND stickiness. It is a touch sensation I cannot handle, so even if I was so inclined to re-clean a mess you should've fucking fixed WEEKS ago (p.s., I'm not), I couldn't, because sticky things make me hyperventilate and cry. CRY. I was in the cabinet to look for cider vinegar (p.s., we don't have any) when I discovered this lingering mess. I was going to clean the rest of the kitchen/dining area/living room while the meal I was going to make for you was in the oven, but now there will be no meal, and no cleaning; just a pissy wife who kind of pines for the days when a husband knew better than to fuck around in the kitchen.

JackFetch Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I now have a broken PS3 to go with my broken 360. It stopped reading discs. I don't have the money to replace either of them any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 You might be able to get the PS3 fixed; I've heard a lot of stories about Sony actually fixing issues like that for free just because they're so rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 My bank just notified me that my overdraft is being pulled in August. Fuck. I use that as an emergency fund and to help pay bills on time. I'm having a panic attack now, yay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
