Someone: "the sound fidelity on the default ipod earphones suck
they are possibly the worst you could use
it's an apple scam
you make you have to upgrade to the more expensive ones
they are so crappy, the contacts aren't even gold... and within 2 months guaranteed one side will give out"

Someone else on SNAILS vs SLUGS: "at least snails have a shell
conclusion: snails better than slugs
we snails... got our own home...
slugs..dun feel a sense of belonging enough... essentially..dun have a home

i felt out of place in law... just walking there
like my geog module says.. social spaces define spacial boundaries
it's a place i avoid like the plague
i dun feel that way in science or biz or even med

i felt ok in the med library
i think it's worse than med
though science students might beg to differ
med to them is like law to us, i guess

but as my friend put it..
doctors are respected, lawyers are hated"


Elia Diodati on false dichotomies: "it should be obvious to anyone who's played any computer game in the *craft genre that an enemy of an enemy is not necessary your friend"

How Chemically Compliant Are you? - "Back in high school, I discovered that my name could be put together from symbols of the elements in the periodic table. Ever since then, I've tried it out on various people's name with very little success since most names are not PT-compliant (Periodic Table-compliant). I finally got tired of scanning through the periodic table manually and wrote this script. Enjoy!"

The Epoch Times | Henan Man Impossible to Photograph - "On January 6, 2006, Henan Province's Dahe Daily newspaper reported that the local police department was unable to take an ID photo of Ye Xiangting from Yelou Village in the Yangzhuang Township of Wugang City, Henan Province. No image of Ye Xiangting showed up in the computer photos, and there is still no clear explanation for the result."

Epoch Times Commentaries on the Communist Party - Part 8: On How the Chinese Communist Party Is an Evil Cult - "The CCP evil cult essentially rules in opposition to human nature and the principles of heaven. The CCP is known for its arrogance, self-importance, selfishness, and brutal, unrestrained acts. It consistently brings disasters to the country and the people, yet it never admits its mistakes, and would never reveal its true nature to the people. The CCP has never hesitated to change its slogans and labels, which are regarded by the CCP as the means to maintain its control. It will do anything to keep in power with total disregard for morality, justice and human life."
You say I evil cult, I say you evil cult. Actually everybody also evil cult, hey!
