Just had lunch at this japanese place near campus, while I was waiting for my food some kid who works here was getting chewed the fuck out by the owner of the place. All of the sudden I heard the kid holler at the top of his lungs: "STOP YELLONG AT ME I'LL SUE YOU"

not proud to admit it, but I lost it, lmao

Can...can you even sue people for yelling at you? 

Also, did he get fired?

Short convo I had with my mom earlier:

Mom knocks on the door and comes into my room to ask what I'm having for dinner

Me: I'll just have the leftover turkey (this is the 5th day in a row I've had turkey)

Mom: Bruh! Aren't you tired of turkey bruh? *laughs* the kids at my job say that word. "Bruh"

Me:

In the USA, the owner yelling could be construed as a hostile work environment, especially if done publicly, and yes he could possibly be sued.

If the worker gets fired because he made mention of a lawsuit, he'll win his suit + unemployment benefits.

 

This is how you can tell a Western American from an Eastern or Midwestern American.

And in the South people have a strange sense of "hospitality"

People in Texas are apparently a lot different than the rest of the South

That's because to a Texan there are actually only two states in the US, Texas and T.A.F.T. Whenever a Texan leaves their state all they can think is "This ain't fuckin' Texas", and they don't like what they see.

Indeed, everything's bigger in Texas. The cars, the food, the megachurches, the teen pregnancy rate, the levels of xenophobia...

Truly a wondrous state.

Reasons why I'd like to move.

Except sometimes, I just want to get out of here as fast as I can.

Also, I haven't talked to you nor Evan in a long ass time.

I'm actually moving soon, getting the hell out of here and temporarily moving into a youth hostel in Brighton until i find a place. No idea if it'll work out but i've got to go out and try for something. And yeah >_>, Evan's incredibly busy but i've just been antisocial recently. Over that now though. Just message me whenever you like, i'm almost always invis but i'm usually around.

I need to get a hold of myself.

I've nearly started a couple fights this week because I'm mad at other stuff. I know it's transference and all, but I've been so on the wire lately that I can barely hold it in. I need a gym membership or something.

i'm realizing something;

 

if you wanted to teach a student all kinds of theory, then even though everyone argues that "guitar tablature is satan", that would actually be a really intuitive way to teach atonal pitch sets and set theory in general, because it converts the musical intervals to a specific integer in a way that is also visually stimulated by the frets. you could actually learn how to be very efficient at atonal theory with guitar tabs of all things.

 

i have half a mind to do something with this information.

 

(although there are still arithmetic and logic concepts to understand, the ability to think in integers as a musician is a really useful skill. you can reconstruct music very quickly with this knowledge)

update:

have fallen asleep on theory book 5 times in a row now (it's ok though because i woke up one or two minutes later)

may need to switch to opera essay mode, but concerned that it will lead to the same result...

I learned something interesting today guys,

Does anyone know of the blobfish?...

09_13_2013_blobfish-e1379079669470.thumb

This little dude?

If you don't know you do, say hello to 'blobfish', behold it's majesty.

Well I have news for you, we're too harsh on this guy. As a deep sea fish it wasn't meant to appear as a blob,

“Unlike most other fish, the ones that live in these depths don’t have gas-filled cavities like swim bladders that would collapse under the extreme pressure. In fact, super-deep water fish often have minimal skeletons and jelly-like flesh, because the only way to combat the extreme pressure of deep water is to have water as your structural support.”

So why do we think the world is too hard on the blobfish? Because if we put you 4,000 feet below the water your organs would be crushed and you’d probably be turned into some sort of paste. Meanwhile the blobfish would just look like….well….

…a fish

Artist rendition of the blobfish in it's natural habitat:

So in conclusion...

I've been back on anti depressants for a few weeks now, and it's legitimately scary for me to think about the difference between me on Skype calls to Mark back before I went back on them, and me on Skype calls now. It's scary how much this tiny pill can change me, and it's scary to think of just how bad I was back then. I dunno. It's like looking at two different people.
