eBay … cheaper - Genius: since people misspell things on eBay and those items attract fewer bidders, this system guesses those misspellings, therefore getting you a better deal on overlooked auctions.

UNEASYsilence: best section - If you are running windows XP and are interested in making it run faster, more efficiently, and less like Windows (that is, more intuitively), then check out this fantastic resource for changing everything you dislike about windows (plus, other great program recommendations as well).

This image reminds me of the song Finally We Have a Map of the Piano.

This coming junior year, my AIM away messages are going to be the epitome of efficient communication. Through an organized code, they will convey my whereabouts effectively, accurately, and without excess nonsense.

c = class
l = lab
wo = workout
f = dining
s = studying
z = sleeping
hi = socializing (human interaction)

X# = where # is the number of times the thing will occur
(#h), where # is a rough time estimate in hours [optional]

• exclamation point is something i’m looking forward to
• pluses indicate concurrent activities
• arrows are discrete activities

Therefore, a day may go as follows:

f->cX3(3h)->l(3h)->f+hi->s(2h)->hi->z(7h)

Breakfast, followed by three classes, a three hour lab, a dinner with friends, two hours of studying, relaxing with people, and then seven hours of sleep.

I will have enough energy to use this for roughly the first three days of school.

Guinness Book of World Records: Loudest Burp - Just when you thought this website was getting some class … it was time to dispel that myth.

By the way, 110dB is the sound level of the front row of a rock concert. This guy hit 118.1dB.

In-N-Out Burger - Probably the best chain to get a burger at in the entire nation.

Sagert (12:34:23 AM): i like my idea better
Sagert (12:34:29 AM): unless they’re blinging vampire teeth
Sagert (12:35:00 AM): or a full front set book-ended by vamp teeth that reads “suck this” in diamonds

tumbledry (12:37:49 AM): your metaphor and idea are equally good
tumbledry (12:37:51 AM): would you get this work done?
Sagert (12:38:11 AM): i could probably be convinced
Sagert (12:38:41 AM): although i might opt for a removable model, depending on employment and things like that
tumbledry (12:39:28 AM): haha alrighty we could arrange that
tumbledry (12:39:33 AM): you’d be tough
tumbledry (12:39:38 AM): tough as nails
