Nepenthe Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I took the key off and played with the nipple looking thing underneath. It didnt seem to help. I dont know a lot about laptop keyboards.Kniw something about nipples, though? You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

LadyCrimson Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Stayed up all night playing Banished. Will now take a nap. Then will play more Banished.

Labadal Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Felt like an old man today. Was very grumpy. My shoulder hurts when it gets cold and I also learned that the pain in my thumb is something I will have to live with for the rest of my life. On top of that, I have a cold sent from frozen hell.

aluminiumtrioxid Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) Dissected a cute widdle bunny wabbit today. Well, watched the teacher dissect one, but I'm told it's my turn next week. Well, actually not so much "dissect" as "partially skin and experiment on it", but still. In other news, girlfriend wants a cat, which is extremely cool. She takes care of its disgusting earthly needs while I get to pet it the days I visit her. Is this how heaven feels like?

Woldan Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Giving Gran Turismo 6 another chance, even though its still a crap game. And I found out that one of my favorite shirts doesn't fit me anymore, can't even raise my hands without hearing the seams ripping. Meh. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Well, actually not so much "dissect" as "partially skin and experiment on it", but still. What are you studying that relates to dissecting/skinning/experimenting on rabbits? Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Requirement for all those fancy doctor-y things like internal medicine, pharmacology, surgery, etc. (And, in all fairness, it's not really dissecting, nor skinning, but a very selective preparation of the trachea, the jugular vein, the vagus nerve and the carotid artery on an anasthetized live specimen, followed by vagal stimulation and injection of certain physiological agonists, but I'm always kinda lazy to look up the correct english terminology after a busy day of not-dissecting-nor-skinning.) 1 "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."

WDeranged Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Just got back from seeing Brian May, he's doing a tour with a singer from the Queen musical, it was a great performance but the sound could have been a teensy bit better, also sitting at the back of a packed out opera house wasn't all that epic. He brought his original guitar so it was cool just seeing him perform with the instrument he recorded all those songs with, glad I went. the vagus nerve I remember that little bugger, apparently that's what made me feel like I was about to die when I got a kidney stone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 I remember dissecting frogs in highschool biology. The dissecting part didn't/doesn't bother me, but the very strong smell of that formaldehyde or whatever would trigger my smell/gag reflex almost instantly. Which was annoying because then people thought I was being wimpy over the frog when that wasn't it at all. “Things are as they are.

Enoch Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) I came home from our gaming session this evening, and went to the basement fridge to get a drink while the wife was taking a shower. Saw a mouse right in the middle of the floor of the unfinished portion of the basement. It started running away from me, but this mouse was not particularly fast. I picked up a half-empty can of housepaint and was able to smash the beastie before it could scurry under the dryer. Feeling appropriately macho, I bagged the idea of a drink from the fridge, and just got some whiskey. Am now drinking it, while glaring disparagingly at the cat.

BruceVC Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 , while glaring disparagingly at the cat. When I first moved to live in JHB 15 years ago I lived in a small holding in a relatively rural area. There use to be mice that lived in my place. I use to hear them running around at night, I decided to use Rat Poison to get rid of them. The one day I saw the one die slowly from the Rat Poison, it was cruel death and horrible to see. After that I left the mice alone "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Guard Dog Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 The heater in the rabbit pen crapped out last night. So this morning I found the odd sight of eight rabbits piled on top of each other trying to stay warm. It wasn't even that cold last night so I figured they're just wussies. The new heater works though... just checked it. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yeah, poison is unpleasant. Not least because you never know where they're going to die, which poses cleanup problems. Glue traps are also disconcerting to use-- you either end up having to execute a helpless animal, or they die slowly of dehydration before you get the chance to give them a clean end. That said, I didn't hesitate here. I saw it moving after I turned the light on, decided that it had to die, grabbed something that could be used as an effective bludgeon (I had already changed into pajamas and slippers, so a stomping was out), and got to work.

Let's just say some things changed when Lady GD moved in. Oddly enough she has no qualms about eating the odd wild rabbit I have gotten during hunting season. But it's a lot harder to eat a critter you see every day and have named. For some at least.

Hurlshort Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I caught a mouse on a glue trap once, and it was very difficult to finish it off. I've used non-kill traps since, I just take them a few blocks away and let them loose in a field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
