I don't want no harmful chemicals in my food, my clothes, my weed
You can keep your dihydrogen monoxide
That was a chemistry joke. It wasn't very funny though, so if you don't get it, don't feel sad
it's funny when hippies tell me that chemicals are bad for you
and I tell them that water is a chemical.
Honestly they can justify something being bad because "it's got chemicals"
this kind of thing bugs me sometimes, because dude, you know what they mean
NO
They are being idealistic. Using an argument that doesn't make sense to back up their stance.
They don't know what the fuck they're talking about. They claim that man made chemicals are bad and there's always a natural solution
fucking arsenic is as natural as sunshine and bird farts but see if it cures your headache quicker than aspirin
What I'm trying to convey here, is that a person can have a basic understanding of there being elements in certain products that can be harmful, but not have a full education of what they're talking about.
We still know what they mean when they blanket-label "chemicals"

there is something wonderful and beautiful and divine in the human ability to create things that rely so purely on our capacity for empathy
that is also beautiful
I was just giving some insight on why I love that vonnegut quote from before
so thanks, I guess!
it is very insightful though, and eloquent.
I don't know if art is sacred, but I know it's one of the few things that separates us from every other form of life we've encountered. To look past what an object is and express what it means.
"Fortune Favors the Bold", this proclamation traces its routes to Virgil, author of the Aenied, although Wikipedia says it came from a playwright author named "Terence", who wrote "Phormio".
SO I'M HANGING OUT IN THE BASEMENT READING AND MY DAD COMES DOWNSTAIRS AND HE LOOKS AT ME AND HE SAYS "DANGER POINT!! YOU LEFT THE OVEN ON!" AND I'M ALL LIKE "DANGER POINT?"

Am I the "hip" racist or the hated racist? Jews are still cool to hate, right?

The other day I was waiting for the bus. While I have a car and a motorcycle, mass transit is inherently awesome so I feel like I have to support it.
Anyway, I was waiting for the bus and I see this car in front of me. It is an old man stopped at the light. His trunk is partially open. Now I could either go close the trunk, and have him wonder if I was up to no good, or I could tap on the window to signal my intent.
I tap on the window, and he pretends to not notice, which is understandable. I back away though and motion towards his trunk, and that I am going to shut it. He sees me this time though, and then when I shut his trunk he waves at me, in a manner that I took as thanks.
Most importantly the car behind him noticed my actions, and appeared to fully recognize the events that took place. They gave me a thumbs up.
I hope I inspired them to step outside of the norm, and help someone out.

But seriously, why is Terence in quotes?
I've always heard the quote was attributed to Virgil, so this "Terence" character is contrary to what I have been taught.
There was another time I felt I did a good deed, it involves an old person as well.
I was on my bike, and from this I had freedom to move pretty much however I pleased. This old guy forgot to screw in his gas tank nozzle, and shut the gas tank exterior door thing. I tapped the window, then scooted back and took care of business.

why didn't the skeleton cross the road because he didnt have any guts haha
that was an anatomy joke. don't feel bad if you didn't get it though
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
I get it!
It's a little funny, mainly because I know a ton of people here in Santa Cruz would fall for making up ridiculous things about dihydrogen monoxide
Whoa, are women considered "People"

Keep it. You never know, right?
And you wouldn't want to be caught with your pants down.

You just come across as an ass

I understand the sentiment
Filling cows up with hormones so they grow disgustingly huge has negative consequences and all
But organic food has some major disadvantages, and science has dne some amazing things for agriculture
And when they use words like "chemical" negatively, it makes me think that they're uninformed.
oh my bad
mods can you move my post???

This is a neat little lecture about what separates humanity from other animals.
There's a bit in it about human empathy and artistic expression.

Which means it is probably accurate.
