Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Dweebs on Parade

Rick V.: One year in graduate school I bought balloons in the standard colors used to illustrate carbon, hydrogen, etc. and attached them to my body in a particular pattern, going to the party as a serotonin molecule. At one point a group of neuroscientists posing as enzymes came over and popped particular balloons with pins, metabolizing me into 5-hydroxy-indoleacetic acid. For the rest of the night when people asked what I was supposed to be, I had to say "Uh, I came as an obscure metabolite of serotonin."

The next year I got an empty bicycle box, painted it, cut a hole at one end for my head, and went as Rorschach Card # III. I got less trouble from the neuroscientists that year, but I had to put up with behaviorists ridiculing my validity all night.

Polter-Cow: Oh my God. That is the best story ever.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Damnit, Trudy!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

In Natter...

Trudy: And how are the snephews, Tommyrot?

tommyrot: They are doing swell. The oldest just started 1st grade - before starting 1st grade he was already reading at a second-grade level. The youngest is a curious little bugger.

Trudy: First grade already? Wow.

I remember when he was just a baby and his brother was just quality time with a Playboy in a van behind the Sizzler. ::sniff sniff:: They grow up so fast.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

From Bitches:

KristinT: And in honor of being done, a couple of linked haiku to capture the torture of this particular set of rough draft creative writing papers:

Creative writing:
teen angst, anime, and yes,
necrophilia.

These are the things they
submit for helpful feedback.
Time to ask for raise.

From the Lost topic, where we digressed to discussing what insects would be present on a South Pacific island:

JoeCrow:

Bees are like ants and beetles, a really popular bug design that you can find damn near world-wide.

Bugs, the original open source bio-engineering project!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Dweebs on Patrol II: Return of the Dweebs, in Buffistechnology after I remember what a capacitor is:

tommyrot:

So P-C, now you're only one step away from understanding flux capacitors.

DXMachina:

And from there you're just a hop, skip, and a jump from tachyon technology.

Daniel C. Jensen:

Then you can reverse the poleron flux and change the dynamics of the matrix.

ita:

You'll need to reconfigure the deflector shields to do that.

Now tagless for your comfort.

From Bitches:

Polter-Cow:

My official duty having been accomplished with this post, I now go to count cells.

Betsy HP:

Spice up the day. Count out loud.

"Von.... von cell! Ahahahahaha! ... Tvo hundret und fifty-sefen millions cells! ahahahahaha!"

Tell 'em it's a Halloween celebration.
