Random Hilarity

Once again, I don't have a lot to write about, so I'll attempt to be entertaining by posting some random humor.

First of all, I can't leave out my Tuesday psychology lecture. I've mentioned it a couple times before, and this week provided more fun moments. For example:

-The professor talked about how the brain discriminates between different types of stimuli. He then gave us examples of discrimination, including this one: "Bill Clinton had to discriminate between an intern and his wife." HA! You thought it was going to be about racial discrimination, didn't you?

-Later, he tried to reenact an experiment in which a researcher taught pigeons to bowl with their beaks. He did this by using a volunteer from the class as a "pigeon" and having him poke a soccer ball with a metal pole, which represented the pigeon pecking a ball in the original experiment. He reminded him of this by pointing to the pole and saying, "That's your pecker, by the way." Predictably, laughter ensued.

-Without going into too much detail, I'll just say that his demonstration of conditioning involved a tarantula named Stanley. That's all you really need to know.

Now that I've confused you with unnecessarily long descriptions of my psychology professor's antics, check out some search terms that have brought people here recently:

-Dick Cheney single greatest threat to society-

That's odd...the VRWC newsletter didn't say anything about...wait! Forget I said anything!

-neocon propaganda-

You've come to the right place. Heh heh.

-things that happen on october 22-

Well, at 6:00 the next day, you can celebrate the calendar representation of Avogadro's Number. (/One of the few things I remember from 10th grade chemistry)

-consequences of past sexual relationships before marriage-

As opposed to past sexual relationships DURING marriage, I hope.

-mp3 And then we're going to washington to take back the white house!-

He said Washington, D.C., dang it.

-disney conspiracy theories childrens movies-

The Lion King told me to light old people on fire. Mickey said the government lies to us. Do those count?

-"die and I hope they burn"-

Why does it matter if they burn when they're already dead?

Finally, remember my last post about the weather? I have photographic proof that it is severely messed up. Look at these, while keeping in mind that it was raining 5 hours ago:

That's the roof, not the ground

You can usually see the Carrier Dome from this angle, but not today!

I really hope I get something interesting written later...
