SMP Life is Being Drunk -Random Content thread - Page 6 - Science, Math and Philosophy Forum

Wow. I have heard venice is awesome, my grandmother was recently there. I am planning on cycling through europe next summer so will have to get tips off you.

Listening to philosophy podcasts / audiobooks was a common occurrence in my life until my ipod died. You should definitely rent a bicycle when you are in city centers, its cheap and you will see so much that way!

So jealous it hurts a little.

Ice skating, ketamine, margaritas and cans of Becks. Good combo.

Surgery only last 40 minutes but the preliminaries are staggering - A whole ream of paperwork on various clipboards. I forgot how many different papers I had to sign over and over right up to time they wheeled me into the OR. I blame the lawyers.

For all those praying for my death - to bad. I'm still alive and kicking and all that much more ready to annoy the world. For those that wished me well thanks. Go drink a tall stiff one on me.

My prayers have been answered! Record time, too.

Well, not when I pray for something. God and me are buds.

I swear. I pray like maybe one time every ten years, but when I pray, I pray.

Snails: http://www.geocities.com/sseagraves/snailfacts.htm

From above link: [Note: I'm not responsible for the accuracy of these facts]

The largest land snail ever found was 15 inches long and weighed 2 pounds

Snails' bodies produce a thick slime. Because of this slime, they can crawl across the edge of a razor and not get hurt.

Some snails have been known to live up to 15 years.

Snails are hermaphrodites which means that they have both male and female reproductive organs.

Snails usually travel in irregular paths, often traveling in a circle.

Snails rely mainly on their sense of touch and smell when finding food because they have very poor eyesight.

Snails cannot hear.

Snails can retract one or both of their tentacles at a time.

Because of the suction created by their slime, a snail can crawl upside down.

Snails are nocturnal animals which means they are more active at night.

Garden Snails mainly eat garden plants and vegetables, but they will also eat decaying plants and soil.

The fastest snails are the speckled garden snails which can move up to 55 yards per hour compared 23 inches per hour of most other land snails.

Garden snails hibernate during the winter and live on their stored fat.

Garden snails breathe with lungs.

Garden snails evolved from sea snails about 600 million years ago.

The garden snail is cooked and eaten as a delicacy called escargot.

May 24th is National Escargot Day.
__________________________________________________ _____________

The above is a fairly accurate description of many people I know, and some people I wish I did not know. The last two facts in bold above are not of any interest to me at all.

It is time for some homebrew given to me by a friend who does not in any way resemble a snail.

don't want to make a new topic in case this is a simple question but i want to know how you'd go about expressing the red line

in case my drawing sucks: it's supposed to look like the black line is a sine wave, and the red is a sine wave treating the black sine wave as its x axis

thanks

Which is too serious and legitimate a question and should have been a seperate post/thread. You need to consume more alcohol. And this post is too serious for this low content thread so I'm giving myself a warning for making it.

So there is a 8 person room on the first floor of this hostel, im on the second in a 4 person, but some dude in this 8 person on the first floor is drunk as **** and naked with a whiskey bottle in his hand. 5 chicks are also in that room and they are freaaaaaaaaaken out like they never seen a penis before. So they explain this to me as I'm walking up the stairs and when they get to the naked / whiskey bottle part I say "Well **** yeah!" and continue walking up the stairs to my room to write about it asap.

does this question make sense:

What hurts more? Velocity or mass? In other words, take an object and throw it at a wall. Would it hit the wall with more force if the mass was doubled, or if the speed was doubled. Ignore air resistance.

Force = mass * acceleration.

We're really concerned with kinetic energy here, which increase with the square of velocity so speed matters more than mass.
