Today in chemistry we learned about surface tension.  Two things of like properties mix well together, while two things of unlike properties do not.  Two things of unlike properties try to touch each other as little as possible, creating surface tension ( Read more... )

So I'm stealing that joke. And I'm going to pretend that I made it up. Because it just really sounds like something I'd say ( ... )

You notice how in a conversation, you want to keep getting deeper with that person because you feel so connected, even though at some point you kind of have to separate and you can't really express those ideas together in the form of conversation. But like... the more connected you feel, the deeper you can go together because you just keep trying and explaining...

Anyway, I'm definitely telling the joke and subtly implying that I made it up. But not saying I did.

I think that my circle would be huge and connect a lot with a lot of other circles. Most def.

I think the biggest reason I don't like ancient history is because society practically behaves completely differently than how it did back then.I don't think that is a fair statement. Of course we're going to change over time because we learn what works and become sophisticated- or we begin doing really bad things as an experiment to see if and how they could work. But honestly, we are still the same in a lot of ways. There's so much behind the actions of humans in the past that ( ... )

Well, subatomic particles are the smallest 3D particles that we know of (subatomic meaning anything smaller than an atom). How other dimensional objects act are pretty much unfathomable to us since we can only graph things in 3D and lower. Who knows if a 4D object would have similar principles applied to it.

Why is it interesting I brought the idea of force and destruction into how civilizations react to one another?

The first example I thought of was the Roman Spartans who would practically fight everything they came across with the idea of "resistance is futile." Silly Romans.

I think I'm going to keep my physics book when I'm done with it simply because it's a very nice book and I'd like to read all of it someday. I'll show you it. I was mesmerized by the cover for a good half hour. The cover is a picture of a bridge. The metal rivets feel smooth while the other parts feel rough. And that's on the cover! Crazy!

Realizations make my day. You just made my day a bit more interesting. And the other commenter, also very nicely put.

I told my friend Matt about the line segment thing the other day and he burst out laughing. He was like, "Oh my god, that would be fucking ridiculous. It never ends!"

That's Kat, by the way. (And Kat, this is Brittany I'm responding to.)

I love realizations. It's like an atheistic epiphany for me. Two synapses in my brain that have been trying their entire life to connect finally do in a small jolt of electric joy.

hehe, life mate! *zap*

Of course its Kat! I should have guessed that in the first place.
