Liquid magic. I'm ill and it has improved how I'm feeling considerable!

Why you shouldn't make bets

You end up watching the wrong team play. However. Navy shorts? Check. White top? Check. AGF thong? Check.

1-1

Yeah! :D

Finally

I've been waiting all day.

The beach

Passing time before the match.

Ready for today's match

Too bad it doesn't start in another 4 hours ...

Being an Insider

After a few years at the university I've learned that people "on the inside" are different from people "on the outside." There is of course the difference between scientists and normal people but that is not all.

Before I started studying at the university, I didn't consider problems like, "I have two infinite sets. I wonder which one is bigger?" or "I have two unsolvable problems. I wonder which one is harder?"

The biggest change, though, is my humor. Among my friends references to xkcd are quite common. So is, "Oh, you haven't read the latest xkcd?" if somebody doesn't get a reference. But nobody ever looks weird and asks, "What is xkcd?"

So reading a geeky online comic is one thing. Another is the analogies. Over time I've made and witnessed a rather large number of obscure analogies. I think the worst one was when Thomas and I compared type safety and sluttiness. Frankly, I think everyone besides Thomas and I found that one weird. I still insist it makes sense:

Sluttiness will scare off (~reject) some guys just like type checking rejects some programs. It makes sense to discuss if the right guys/programs are rejected. It is a perfect analogy! Is sluttiness a conservative approach? That question makes sense! It didn't really get obscure until we started comparing not openly prudish guys with falsely rejected type safe programs … Even though I also think that one makes sense.

Anyway. Relating everything to something concerning computer science becomes rather common. Why wouldn't it? Everyone knows what we're talking about! At least everyone "on the inside." Personally I just find all these changes fun. It creates some common ground.

Going to the beach

Take that! :D

Ready

Come on GF! :D

Something learned

Apparently candles melt when left in the window.

The birthday boy

Happy birthday to Thomas. :)

Diabolic score card

Lars and my personal score card from this Monday. Notice the 666 at the bottom. We got -6 on the last board and our total is 66. With that in mind we can only squash our competitors from now on! ;)

Spiky

My silhouette looks funny.

Testing the waters

They were cold! ;)

Enjoying a summer morning

The weather is nice, I can hear the birds, and the water is only a tiny bit cold.

Ready

I can't wait for the match to start! :D

Glass

The cool one! :D

Commercials

So many. So funny! :)

The Zebra Mug from Hell

My sister and her husband among many other things gave me these two mugs for my birthday:

When you lift them up, they make the sound of a zebra neighing. Fun and laughable, sweet and innocent? One would think so. Oh, one would. But as witnessed in this video,

the truth is quite another. One of the mugs is apparently obsessed by some evil soul causing it to neigh without any motivation whatsoever.

During any normal day this would just be irritating. Well, irritating doesn't quite cut it, but I guess it would be tolerable albeit very, very annoying. I live in a very small apartment. So imagine what happens when the Zebra Mug from Hell decides to start neighing at 7AM. That's right, I woke up.

I really didn't want to get out of bed and walk the 5 meters to my kitchen. But when the neighing didn't stop, I had to. I figured that maybe some other mug was teasing it causing it to think it was being lifted. It didn't seem so but I took out the mug and wrapped it in some clothes I had lying around, thinking that would fix it.

I hadn't been in bed very long before the neighing started again. I tried wrapping my head in the pillow but it didn't help. I could still hear the annoying sound. When I finally got up, I was so annoyed that I was about ready to "accidentally" drop the Zebra Mug from Hell on the floor. However, the better me won and I jammed it in between a few sweaters in my closet instead. That was the last I heard this morning.

When I finally got up, everything was fine and as the good person I apparently am, I freed the Zebra Mug from Hell and left it on my kitchen table. Here everything was fine until I got back from my grocery shopping. It has been neighing almost nonstop ever since.

Actually, just as I typed the above sentence the neighing stopped. I'll use the quiet time for studying!
