Debian... why do you hate me so?

harem pants

Blargh... can't believe those things became popular again. They plagued my older sister and now they are back to plague me. I just find them so incredibly ugly I'd rather have people walk around in towels :p

I narrowly avoided my first trip to the salt mines with some extremely lucky bets clever analysis and forethought.

This also deserves a spot in the WTF thread but my initial wtf'ery can not outweigh my happy with how such a thing can exist :p

Get Salty!

EDIT: Damn you Spongebob you failed me!
FAKEEDIT: YEEEAAHHH Grievous! You saved my salty ass.
EDIT2: Nooooooo! So close to triple my salt! Damn Rimle choked in the second half.

Thank you Totalbiscuit for leading me to itmejps channel for Dark Heresy, which lead me to Rollplay which eventually lead me to Neals twitch and the awesomeness that is eSports Mafia.

America started school a fucking month ago, we've already ridden the but-I-don't-want-to train and have stepped off at let's-buckle-down-and-deal-with-this-shit station

USA USA USA USA

Lessee... AP World History, AP Calculus, AP Government, DE English Composition, DE Human Anatomy & Physiology, and good old Economics. Luckily I don't have Spanish 3, they stopped offering that at my school once they realized that they were already assholes for only offering spanish and latin as foreign language classes. So instead of learning something interesting, I get to sit through rehashed bullshit and loads upon fucking loads of homework.

I don't quite get american colleges. I mean I am studying to become a civil engineer specialized in computer science and networking. Which means my days are filled with math, comp.sci. courses, physics etc. A friend of mine is studying to become a math teacher, studying well.. math and courses about teaching etc. Another friend studied to become a lawyer and did all the law stuff.
What I am getting at, here, everything is focused, you choose what you want to study and get courses tailored to that¹, but whenever I hear about americans, they have things like you listed, a mish mash of World History and human anatomy. I guess there is a difference between swedish universities and american colleges I am missing here :p

In the lawyer example I guess you go to 'law school' for that, but how does that tie in with college?

Sorry for rambling :p I got up really early and I am tired as shit, if I made no sense what so ever, just ignore me ^^

¹You can choose courses outside your program of course, but at least in my case, there is no way I would have the time to take a course on philosophy in between my engineering stuff.

Yup, back to uni tomorrow. Got some interesting courses this semester though so it's not all sad :p

Scumbag Games Workshop. Been thinking about getting into WH40k again and finally do the Adepta Sororitas army I have been wanting to do since forever, only to realise the new codex is stuck in two issues of White Dwarf I can't bloody find anywhere. Who had that brilliant idea?

And he works will Dell!

He must be old indeed to have lived and worked with the master of Gonville and Caius College. Imagine how much he must know!
