Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
Requested by Alice, who points out that we haven’t had a thread like this for a long time. (There may be some overlap with “Rants and Complaints,” “Good News,” “Guilty Pleasures,” and “Things of Which We Are Unreasonably Fond,” however.)
Date: January 9, 2010
Categories: Ideas, The Universe
Things we Like and/or Don’t Like: Hmmm. I do like Uggs, no matter what people say. As for “don’t like,” maybe being stuck behind slow walkers. Grrr.

I don’t like thinking that I got the first post and then finding out that I actually didn’t. I don’t like long lines. I don’t like reviewing things we already went over last year in school.

“I love the mountains, I love the clear blue skies, I love big bridges, I love when great whites fly. I love the whole world and all its sights and sounds! (boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da) I love the oceans, I love real dirty things, I love to go fast, I love Egyptian kings. I love the whole world and all its craziness! (boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da) I love tornadoes, I love arachnids, I love hot magma, I love the giant squids. I love the whole world, it’s such a brilliant place! (boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da, boom-de-ah-da…)”
Sorry, that just jumped into my head.

6 – I love momentum, I love to engineer, I love this bakery, I love the blogosphere, I love the whole world and all its messed-up folks! Boom de yada, boom de yada, boom de yada, boom de yada…
Things I like: xkcd, not having homework, thick socks, clean erasers, candy canes, reminiscing, Harry Potter, figuring out tough math problems, colors in the blue/green family, impressionist art, marching band, reading, MuseBlog, cute stuff, fire, chocolate, snow days, playing music, and letterstocrushes(dot)com.
Things I dislike: People who stop and have conversations in the middle of the hallway, being woken up by a beeping/buzzing alarm clock (mine plays music), humidity, pools, mac computers (I’m with Piggy on this one, but I like iPods), people who don’t care, ladybugs in my room, busywork, cold feet.

Me too. I just especially love how he takes her hand and says, “I love your sister”. There are a few other panels I especially love, but unfortunately, the verses they are in also contain some material not quite appropriate for MB.

Dislikes: Cruelty to animals, that really annoying piece of skin at the edge of your fingernail that will hurt if you pull it off, scabs, lots of blood, having cold ears, being bored, being behind a family that just has to take up the whole width of the sidewalk and is walking very slowly.
I might post more later.

I like lots of things, caffeine being one of them.
I dislike many things as well, one of which being after typing up a 1.5 page paper, finding out the printer isn’t working and having to handwrite the entire thing in MLA format, a feat which I have not accomplished in three years. The fact that my handwriting is atrocious, I never doublespace, and my capitalisation tends to fall upon words I deem important, rather than names or beginnings of sentences, or that it is THREE IN THE MORNING doesn’t help much either.
I also dislike the fact that the grammar of that was positively horrid and i’m not going to go back and fix it because I have to keep writing more about Fredrick Douglass.

Hey! You read my mind too! The only things I disagree on are meat, socks, sports, and musicians/singers. I also don’t have shoe preferences. I’m a vegetarian who doesn’t like the feel of socks – any socks – hates sports, and is so picky about music, I only like one singer. I would do the speaking-to-cat-in-Spanish thing except I don’t have a cat and don’t speak Spanish. I did often speak Hebrew to my pet rat, though.

I know, right? And using a robot would defeat the whole purpose, since you’d have to program it to “see” its shadow or not. Replacing him with a robot would have the same effect as ignoring him all together and just having the city council or something decide and announce it.

I don’t know if anyone said this already, but I find the title of this thread amusing, as it seems to refer to things that we both like and dislike.

Thing I Dislike: People who lock the door of a bathroom stall and then climb/crawl out of it… and who are still pulling this immature prank in flippin’ high school.
0
0
That’s a really lame prank. Is it really supposed to deter anyone from USING A DIFFERENT BATHROOM STALL? And why would you want to crawl on the bathroom floor? That’s gross…
0
0
Not only is it gross and immature, it seems rather hard to pull off. I mean, last year, after I had neutralized such a prank and was using the stall, I decided to try crawling under the stall’s wall. At the time, I was pretty young for 9th grade and pretty small for my age. And I could barely make it. How is a normal-aged, normal-sized high-school student (even if he’s a 9th grader) able to do it when I can’t?
0
0
Maybe they climb onto the toilet and hop over the barrier?
0
0
Maybe. Still, it’s immature and stupid. And it’s particularly stupid when you do the same stall in the same bathroom twice in one day.
0
0
Does your school use locks where the bolt is directly slid from the inside or where the bolt is slid by turning a circular knob? Because with the knob ones, it’s usually pretty simple to reopen them by wedging your fingers into the slit on the outside and turning the knob.
0
0
Oh, I know. That’s what I do to solve the problem. That’s also another reason why it’s stupid to be pulling the prank in the first place – it can be undone in a matter of seconds.

Likes: getting really into fandoms and finding out everything there is to know about them (read: lots of weird trivia)
Dislikes: having all of my friends think I’m insane because of this (including the girl who is learning to speak Na’vi and will talk about basically nothing but Avatar — but because I like books and plays and theatrical stuff instead of movies, I get labelled as weird)
Likes: finally finding a friend IRL who actually shares my interests of that sort
Dislikes: the fact that said friend is moving to California this summer.
My life kind of reminds me of that improv game Luckily/Unluckily…

I’m going to assume those are likes, because I can’t imagine anyone having a particular dislike of free samples.

I can’t really imagine anyone disliking aquariums, either, though I suppose it’s possible.
