Morning all.

Think I have another test today. Woo.

I have two tests today.

FTFMe.

Ahh, how'd they go?

English Level F test I have already passed twice went relitively Ok, and I.T. test was easy.

That's good. :D

I've noticed that GTM has been buggy for me lately. It has failed to load of a number of occasions, too.

What utter crap. Surely you'd think Oxford University would be better off researching cures for diseases, rather than Feminazi Propaganda.

What are you talking about? Realistically most primates are still territorial and have prominent "alpha males" commanding groups. Unless evolution has happened immensely quickly that sort of thing remains in human psychology. Also, your comment rather ironically shows the exact confrontational attitude shown in the article; you've treated the article as false just because it targeted you (and I, too) with a radical idea. Just because it's a strange idea doesn't mean it's false; if we constantly kept that attitude then electricity wouldn't have been invented, kids would be beaten at home still and we'd sacrifice goats on our front lawn every day.

Think about it- men were always in power, not women.

We learned that women in power are bad from Margaret bloody Thatcher

[Natef]

My history class probably doesn't cover half of the things yours does.

[Scourge of teh Galaxy]

I never really had history class. I taught myself all I know about history from various historical records and encyclopidae

I think my girlfriend might have bipolar disorder. She said she wanted to murder me, drew some really bloody, gory artwork, got a quite severe headache for a few moments, then it went away, and she couldn't remember drawing what she'd drawn, or telling me she wanted me to die.

This is going to be fun. =)

Actually...

Who fights in most wars ? Males, with a large minority of women.
Who starts and continues most wars ? Exactly the same.
Who starts more physical violence ? Still the same.

What they are saying has certainly an ounce of truth to it, but what I disagree with is that they seem to mean that male sex drive is to blame for all wars. That's BS for me. There are other emotions, such as pride, self-righteousness, anger, frustration, jealousy, rage, hatred, greed, hope, that are good war starters.

Maybe male sex drive was a factor for most primitive wars... but now, it is much more complicated.

If she's bipolar go over and fuck her really rough so she won't remember it.

I hate those ASPCA ads that make you depressed as hell.

That's what she said.
 
No, it actually was.

Of course it's more complicated now; the human brain is greatly developed compared to most primates, but it does not prevent the fact that the typical hormonal and mental response of primates is still in the human brain, which is why human development and social grouping used to be roughly the same as typical primates. In addition the emotions you stated are all effects of territorialism and the desire to expand it, natural behaviour for more or less every developed animal that does not live solitary life.

Put simply, given the choice, would you have a small but comfortable bedroom or one which is large but equally comfortable but not of a nessecary size for your purposes? For the most part (goddamn RA2 has effected my views on compactness) human nature would dictate that we go for the latter. This is ancient behaviour rooted in the desire for greater possession and the age old methods of trying to impress women; several ancient cultures used their wealth as a method of attracting females, whether they depended on it or not.

The new Lacuna Coil ablum isn't too bad :P

Physics exam tomorrow, yay :D

i would probably go "TOO MUCH EMPTY SPACE GRAAARGH" and choose the smaller one in a fit of rage.

Seriously, I think I'll choose the smaller one if it's not too small.

Haha, I'd probably do the same after 2 years or RA2.
