Australians for the WIN

December 18th, 2008 at 12:58 pm (Hilarity)

Side note: This was initially entitled “New Zealanders for the WIN” because I thought I recognized a New Zealand accent in one of them. Turns out it was an Australian show, so I changed the name, but I was just doing a little reading and it turns out that one of the guys is in fact from NZ! So my ear is accurate. Phew!

Bird with Scottish accent

December 16th, 2008 at 12:33 am (Hilarity)

This bird has a Scottish accent. It is hilarious. Warning: he makes sounds approximating swearing. If an animal mimics sounds but is not aware of the meaning of those sounds, is it still swearing? Could you broadcast it on primetime?

Shashi, Novelist

December 12th, 2008 at 9:43 am (Science!, Tales of the Swamp)

OMG MY FRIEND SHASHI FINISHED HER NOVEL! This is so exciting. Shashi, congratulations!

Man, we are growing up. My friends are writing novels and teaching and designing Blackberries. I have to use this as a push to finish the 5 million papers I’ve been putting off to write my Higher Cognition paper. It is almost finished! And then I can revamp the first paper (1 of 3) that came out of my honours research. I will get around to writing up my masters for publication in about 7 years. (I am kidding. That will hopefully be done this year too.)

Shashi’s second last post was really neat: she went through her novel and examined all the words she used too often. Shashi, is there a program that you use for this, or do you have to pick random words and see whether you have too many of them? I should do this for my papers, as well. My top list will be DLPFC, frontopolar, cortex, activation and processes.

This makes me happy

Puppiez Still Street

Everyone knows the old cliche that nothing goes better together than puppies and the Geto Boys. Well, some creative soul out there just proved that to be very true. In the greatest rap video since “Nothin’ But a G Thang,” check out the remix of the Geto Boys’ “Still.”

The Internet likes my video :D
