      Welp, when life gives you lemons... make life take the lemons back! I don't want your darn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these?

  2. Just started re-reading "Guns, Germs, and Steel" for a class in college, and I realized one of the worse things the book implies about human prehistory: It's likely that the Giant Ground Sloth would have been DOMESTICATED by Amerindians if it hadn't been killed off by the Clovis hunters they descended from. This is one of history's greatest tragedies.

      Eh. Jared Diamond disagrees. Megafaunal extinctions in North America and elsewhere correlate so well with Clovis settlement that he thinks there's probably some relationship.

      But yeah. It's likely that taming megafauna like Ground Sloths could've made Amerindians more resistant to disease and lead to faster development. North America lacked good crops and animals to domesticate, which held it back considerably.

  4. Suddenly Sadness.

      I have irrational bouts of sadness whenever I get stressed. They last for days at a time. It's weird, but there's no logical way to beat it. You just have to acknowledge whatever it was that made you that way, then sit in your bed and cry for a few minutes. It feels as lame as Braize, but it works.

  5. Just noticed that there's a town in the Johto Region named "Blackthorn City." Which starter do you think he chose?

      Not serious :P. Next time I play that game, though, I'm totally naming my character "Dalinar" in honor of that one city.

      If I made my profile pic a Pokemon, I'd probably be a Charmander, Torchick, or Growlithe. Lots of orange Pokemon to choose from.
