Is it because you lied when you were seventeen?
It seems like sod’s law that the weather is always beautiful when you have to be stuck inside, and downright miserable whenever you have an opportunity to get away. But there is an explanation for why this is true. Read the rest of this entry »
How do I test my batteries? What is specific gravity? Should I always keep my golf cart charged?
Well, the first two questions are fairly straightforward. You can buy a device to test your batteries here, and specific gravity is explained by Wikipedia.
As for the golf cart, though, this is a rather subjective question. There are pros and cons.
Jam is made by boiling up fruit and sugar (and a setting agent, if necessary) and then putting it into jars to spread on toast. This applies to any fruit you could name; strawberries, apricots, blackberries, cherries, and more. Marmalade is made by boiling up fruit and sugar (and a setting agent, if necessary) and then putting it into jars to spread on toast. This apparently applies only to citrus fruit. So why on earth does marmalade have a fancy name when it’s just jam? Read the rest of this entry »

You wake up to an alarm that’s too loud, scrape yourself out of bed and look out of the window only to see chirpy people who have been up for hours jogging, or walking the dog.

I Killed An Orc (and I liked it)
This was never the Dark Lord’s land. Stopped your invasion

It’s what I like to do; just us and Aragorn
I’m counting dead orcs to reach a million
[Chorus:]

A sticky situation indeed. You need to start by asking yourself a few simple questions.
1. Do you often feel tired, particularly in the mornings, or find it difficult to drag yourself out of bed?
– This can be a sign that your bear is testing out new biological weaponry or anaesthetics on you. Try leaving the window open a smidge overnight to prevent buildup of toxic substances. Read the rest of this entry »
Escher jokes aside, some people do experience this phenomenon and have no idea why. It’s actually really simple. Read the rest of this entry »
Most phobias fall into two categories: Fear from experience or fear from instinct. The ones brought about by a single event or association are the simplest to work out. Watched Stephen King’s ‘IT’ as a kid? Clowns are terrifying. Had a big spider thrown at you one Halloween? Spiders are terrifying. It’s easy.
Some of the instinctive ones are simple too. Heights, snakes, sudden loud noises; these are all survival tactics.
But feet? Seriously? Read the rest of this entry »
You’re in a bright, well-lit room. But when the power goes out, where does all that lovely light that the room was so full of, go? It was wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling, a room packed with light. Sure, you’ve ceased production of new light, but the existing stuff can’t just disappear into thin air – after all, the first thing they teach you in physics is that energy can’t be destroyed. So what happens? Read the rest of this entry »
