The Orioles are going to play tomorrow, but the stadium is closed to the public. That will be a weird ball game
They make sense from Earth. If we live on the moon, or Mars, at some point, Earth years and days will make no sense. Asked myself that question many times. Why the hell are there 24 hours in a day. Religion, that's who.
I knew the quote was from somewhere else or original, I just thought the Monty Python picture was appropriate.
Never thought I'd ever see or hear another human being say "time is a human invention". Fucking cheers brother!!! I take that theory a step further and say "when humanity dies the universe dies with it". We have invented everything we in fact think is the everlasting truth.

If I'm reading this right (and this is Wikipedia, so, y'know, grain of salt), it was an individual by the name of Dionysius Exiguus. Initially, Rome and Christianity mixed like Carl and Urkel. Martyrdom was commonplace, until the famous Emperor Constantine himself came out of the cross-shaped closet. All of a sudden, Christianity was the new vogue. And thus began the Roman Catholic Church (a different story altogether). Up to that point, about the only other measure of time was based on the start of the rule of Constantine's predecessor, whose greatest crowning achievements included, but were not limited to: Beheading Christians Disemboweling Christians Crucifying Christians (witty guy...) Calling Christians hurtful names So, Mr. Exiguus, in an attempt to both keep things current and keep the most reasonable attempt at a consistent date system from carrying too much stigma, devised a new way to appeal to, and keep from offending, the Christian Zeitgeist: make a whole new calendar based upon its messiah. Though narrowing down the days of Christ was really more of a shot in the dark than a calculated estimation. It may be worth mentioning that this "Anno Domini" system didn't catch on immediately, even among Christians. Apparently, they were just happy to not be getting persecuted anymore. Rome may have eventually developed a new way to measure years, but common convention was to name years after the years of service of its leaders, for instance: "The Seventh Year of the Reign of our President Barack Obama." Also, Hannibal may have had a hand in making sure that didn't happen. It's kinda hard for Rome to innovate the world when there is no Rome anymore. *Much of the above was written with brief, highly uninformed research, and was intended to be humorous and only passively informational.
Random fact : In my rally mod tool I have had to make object mapping lists since it's all hard-coded in the game.

I know this is a day old post, but I figured I should mention that if a police officer asks to see your ID whether you are a passenger, driver, riding in the trunk, etc. you have a legal obligation to show your ID. And if you are an ignorant entitled ass and think you know an officers job better than him/her, who has spent 4 years of college in criminal justice/psychology training+ academy training, then you will be arrested. Why? Because according to law you can be arrested for speeding, then taken back to the station and you would have to pay your ticket then and there. If you couldn't, then you had to sit in a cell until a friend brought you the money for the ticket. Most officers, however, do not do this because it wastes yours and their time. Basically what I am saying is, if you are not an asshole, they wont be. Source---Im in tech school for law enforcement
Questions: How did you notice he was stealing? You were looking at him on the Security Cam the whole time? What did he say when you stopped him? Didn't he try to get away? Are the ladders ok?
Seems I have sober stoner'd this thread to pieces. It just popped into my head, the fuck. Now if I really smoke I will question the world's existence. But I already know the answer, Big Bang. Pretty fuccen sober stoned.
The problem is, if you're stoned you can't really pay attention to all this serious text. Constrains your thinking... maaaaaan
Being stoned doesn't send you into some sort of deep philosophical thought. Quite the opposite, actually. You can't hold thoughts for more than a few seconds. If you have some sort of epitome it's when you're eating potato chips and you start wondering why they're curved or something stupid like that. And you eat a lot of food.
I'm hungry, but I can't go to a store because, well, I'm just to lazy to do that. I can't order a Pizza either because I don't want my mum to notice and because my little brother is sleeping. Life sucks.
Friend said his back hurts a little but I feel fine. He was sitting at the door that got hit though. Hard to believe a 3300lbs Honda hit 6 inches away from his legs at 15-20mph.
Tailgaters + Dangerous overtakers = Idiots who drive Don't be impatient and dumb at the same time, they don't mix.
