Let's hear it!

look, i know that.  it doesn't matter how good a driver you are.  if you try to drive up a snow-packed 30 degree slope with a lowered car that doesn't have awd, you're fucked.  you're not going to get up that hill.

you said "no car is better than any other car for driving in snow", which is what i was responding to.  it's completely false.

I was talking about a general driving scenario, but I didn't word it as such. I think you'd agree with me that most people won't find themselves driving in that kind of incline, but may find themselves driving in average terrain (some incline changes, but nothing drastic).

... bottom line, it's completely ABSURD to suggest that there aren't some cars that are better at snow driving than others.

Chevy Aveo vs Ford F350.

Enough said.

hilarious.

Has anyone else noticed their ability to actually write things horrendously degrading year after year to the point where it is both hilarious and sad? My handwriting sucked to start with but I pretty much use a pencil all the time now because my writing can't keep up with my thinking and I fuck up something every couple words or whatever

No.

I think my handwriting has probably improved -- especially my ability to write mathy type stuff.  zeta still escapes me, though.  how the fuck do you draw that?  even the old professors seem to just draw some scrible and say "that's a zeta".

I'm not nearly as bad with math stuff, its mostly writing actual words that I fail at. I think I'm just used to thinking at typing speed which far exceeds the speed I can write at.

Draw a 2 with your eyes closed. It's a zeta.

you're full of it



that has no significant resemblance to a 2.

i wish i could replicate the way my algebra professor drew zeta.  hahahaha.  that shit was hilarious.  i think i had more focus on drawing zetas in that class than learning what orbits and stabilizers were.  not that it wasn't interesting... his lectures were just difficult to follow because he was so terse.

1. i don't and i've never been associated with the vl forums.
2. i don't have the internet during classes i care about
3. i didn't even have a good idea of what a zeta looked like.  i was going off of what my professor scribbled on the board.  that's kind of the point.
4. the website is nice, but it doesn't really help with the dilemma i was talking about

Fuck HP. God-awful stupid Indians that even I can't understand, want to bash my head into a wall while talking to them, just to get them to realize that NO, when you install a new piece of hardware, it is not required that you wipe my fucking hard drive and reinstall Vista and that YES, I am keeping my data and not sending it to you. Morons.

Also, fuck their cheap laptops whose heatsink fans just snap when on a desk under normal usage.

Well my weekend was great... was happy to hang with my friends from college at Katsucon.  But it seems every time I see them and what not, I come back home and go through a couple weeks of feeling depressed that I'm not still in college where I'd have an instant social network of like-minded individuals to socialize with.  I may be an introvert, but it seems like I cannot live my life without the company of others, even if I don't talk or am just tagging along.
