Tastefully Odd Blog Entries

Got an odd comment spam today…

ysketball is so much fun

Found an excellent analogy for my arguments with Tyler and Luda today.

(11:43 AM) Tobe, John: yeah, I thought it was stupid though

(11:43 AM) Tobe, John: that’s all I remember

(11:44 AM) Tobe, John: i didn’t let tyler drag me into an argument though

(11:44 AM) Tobe, John: I took my jeep and drove it the hell outta there

(11:44 AM) Ward, Chris: lol

(11:44 AM) Tobe, John: avoided tyler’s minefield

(11:44 AM) Ward, Chris: well done sir

(11:44 AM) Tobe, John: you = brick wall

(11:44 AM) Tobe, John: tyler = minefield

(11:45 AM) Ward, Chris: hehe, that’s a pretty good summary

(11:45 AM) Tobe, John: I can drive around the minefields pretty well

(11:45 AM) Tobe, John: but when I try to drive around you

(11:46 AM) Tobe, John: …you’re just too damn big and I don’t want to go backwards

(11:46 AM) Ward, Chris: hehe, too funny

(11:46 AM) Tobe, John: you’re jeep arena and I can’t escape

(11:47 AM) Tobe, John: unless I drive into tyler’s minefield

(11:48 AM) Ward, Chris: or you could get blown up by mats

(11:49 AM) Tobe, John: actually the route I usually go is blowing up my own jeep

(11:50 AM) Ward, Chris: hmm, that’s true…you painted quite the picture of our day-to-day conversations

(11:51 AM) Tobe, John: yep. and now blogged for posterity

mats prefers to drive right into the minefield

success!

Update: The original link got taken down because of music. Here’s one that should work although it links to newgrounds’ crappy site.

Kinda behind the curve on posting this quiz, but it’s still worth sharing. I must warn you, however, this is the reaction you’ll have towards me and the guy who made it.

definitely how I feel about the alphabet question

Just a little something to cleanse the pallet after my mini rant. Note this effect is stronger for some people than others.

snapping of fingers also increases

My apologies for not posting in nearly two weeks, but in my defense I’ve had no life to blog about for 14 days. I’ve been working, homeworking, or sleeping. This class has been quite painful. Each class the professor writes a bunch of equations on the board without really explaining them. If we pester him he sometimes explains what we’re solving for. But that isn’t really useful without an example problem where we can actually plug in numbers. On top of that we’re taking derivatives of equations to solve problems and derivatives got pushed out of my brain 6 years ago right after calc 1. Then there’s the tons of homework we have to do. Just understanding what the questions are asking for is a chore in itself sometimes. Finally, understanding what the book is talking about sometimes would be helped greatly by doing it in order and only covering a quarter’s worth of material rather than a whole year’s worth.
This topic could have been a really interesting one too. I mean, Artificial Intelligence is some sweet stuff. We just needed a competent teacher, a reasonable course schedule, and an emphasis on practical computer related topics instead of theoretical math bullshit.

if I hear the word probability one more time
