Three things

1) It seems difficult to find a t-shirt these days which isn't daubed with nonsensical text and shapes, skulls, names of sports teams that nobody has heard of, or the word Osaka.

2) I'm behind on my novelty, internet-purchased t-shirt quota.

3) If anybody wants anything buying from the Valve merchandise site, now is the time to say so. You have 24 hours, starting now.

On the death of Patrick Swayzee...

At the rate at which celebrity deaths are becoming more and more relevant to me, it can't be many years before fate takes away an actor that I actually care about.

Over exposed

On a related note, I don't think I do get headaches from talking to women; I think it's just the fact that I've been wearing glasses more, which aren't really intended for viewing things at close range.

Though this implies that I only make eye contact with women; or that I'm exceptionally leery and in-their-face.

Not that I get headaches from talking to women or nothing.

All aboard the Psychotropic Gyroscope

So whilst tilting the head back appears to give me brief feelings of euphoria, tilting the head forward after exercise has a reasonable chance of causing a brief, passing headache. Further avenues of investigation consist of orienting the head left, right, and upside down.

I think I'll wait until completing neuroanatomy before trying upside down though.

Edit: There's a module available for this unit simply titled 'Pain'. Sure glad I'm not taking that.

I much prefer Human Reproduction lolololol

Fascinating Insights into the World of Science

The Welcome Trust Building has a pippette clinic where you can take your pippetes to be serviced.

GTFOO my IT facilities

Either the number of freshers admitted this year has drastically increased or I've just aged, making a larger fraction of the University populace appear youthful and fresher-like.

Whichever it is, I can't be having with it. Not more obnoxious freshers and certainly not the process of aging.

And another thing...

In Avatar, if they have the technology to detect all brain activity and transfer it, in real time, into a different brain, how have they not cured paralysis yet. I'd imagine that it's easier to transfer the nerve impulses required to walk a few centimetres down a damaged spinal cord than it is to transfer the nerve impulses required to walk and have sex with aliens a few miles into a different body.

My money is on the Wolfman

Crapability

The previous post has taught me not to judge too quickly, which is a lesson I learn roughly every two days. With my crap ability to predict the future in mind fo, I think it's best to put a little sign on my preemptive Avatar review saying 'It will probably be good'.

The Host

I think I was wrong about The Host. What I mistook for a jaunty pace was actually the author's eagerness to get the plot out of the way and force the main character into a inescapable, confined space with her boyfriend and a bunch of survivors so that they can all talk and cry and talk and cry and threaten to kill her and cry and talk and talk and plant crops and cry and talk.

The breakdown has been:
100 pages of plot
200 pages of cave/talking

It's taught me that women love to have their heads manouvered about by hands on their chins fo.

"The acronym RING stands for Really Interesting New Gene. Hurr hurr hurr."

The reason cancer hasn't been cured yet is because fucking stupid scientists spend most of their time coming up with shitty acronyms that help nobody, especially not people who have to go running off to find internets to look up what a RING domain is because the acronym explains fuck all.
