  1. It turns out it's just your imagination trying to hip-thrust through your rationality and it doesn't work so well.

    Then you realize that if a person was sitting in a wheelchair while riding the bus as it passed over a rertactable bridge, they'd be on a transport in a transport on a transport.

  2. Bucket List:

    1. Go to Red Base.

    2. Kill Everyone.

    3. Get the flag back.

     

    I have an infinite bucket list, because every time I accomplish something, I set a new goal.

    Right now, I mainly want to live long enough to see certain things:

    A probe below the ice of Europa.

    The first confirmed life-bearing extrasolar planet.

    A human mission to an Asteroid.

    Halley's Comet.

    Hopefully there will be a Human mission to Mars by 2036 apparently.

  3. Grif: [after what appears to have been a completely ordinary radio conversation] Simmons sounded good. I guess he's got everything under control.

    Sarge: Donut and Lopez are dead and someone has taken Simmons prisoner.

    Grif: What?! Everything sounded fine to me!

    Sarge: Think about it! How do you answer the radio at our base?

    Grif: Thank you for calling Red Base, this is Private Grif, how may I assist you today.

    Sarge: And we've drilled that since day one! Simmons answered "Hi." That was my first clue.

    Grif: So maybe he's just ups-

    Sarge: He also said that the radio was in disrepair. When does Lopez ever let something go without the proper maintenance?

    Grif: Never.

    Sarge: And look at the time.

    Grif: Can't, clock's broken.

    Sarge: It's 17:30! And everybody knows that 17:30 is:

    Grif: Donut's daily wine and cheese hour!

    Sarge: I didn't hear any tinkling glasses, did you?

    Grif: You're right!

    Sarge: He also mentioned that the weather was "rainier", and as we all know, Mt. Rainier is the biggest land mass in the state of... Washington.

    Grif: We do? Uh, I mean, we do!

    Sarge: How many Washingtons do we know?

    Grif: Did he mean Agent Washington?

    Sarge: And who's the biggest mass we know associated with Washington?

    Grif: The Meta!

    Sarge: So the Meta and Washington have teamed up to kill Donut and Lopez and now they're holding Simmons and Doc prisoner.

    Grif: We have to help them! Wait, Doc? How do you know he's there?

    Sarge: Please, Grif, it's so obvious! I don't want to insult your intelligence by explaining every little detail.

  4. Make your videos good (high quality), make them regularly.

    Reward consistent viewers with consistent content and they will come.

     

    Simple, boring advice, but I can almost guarantee it works.

     

    By high quality, prioritize what you make in this order: Interesting and well-done content, Audio Quality, Video Editing, Compression. People might excuse a poor video if they still can listen to it, but a video that has neither is not worth their time and they'll dislike you for wasting it. If you do it well, they'll ask you for as much as you can give them in ability to waste their time.

    I like thinking God has a grand sense of humor, lest I would otherwise have no reasonable justification for living on this planet.

  6. Organizing my musical library in my computer.

    I have many hours of music that have been repeatedly attempted at being organized- a folder called "various artists" has been attempted in being properly organized by genre, and then song by song, and then in one giant album called Internet.

    Now I'm reversing all that, retaining only their Titles and composers and otherwise having them all fit in the nebulous group of "Unknown Artist, Unknown Album, Unknown Genre, Unknown Year".

     

    I am sick and tired of looking at the ordered Library and seeing everything I've organized corrupted by here and there seeing a random artist or genre or whatever that only contains one song, interrupting otherwise very well kept discographies.

    What certainly doesn't help however is a recent addition of 9 hours of Bach music, much of which does not have a listen Artist, so all that ties them together is their composer.
