I don't think I actually know the scientific method anymore..

Hypothesis

nice video 👍


Ya. Interesting to note he won the nobel prize in physics and created the famous "path integral" as well as "Feynman diagrams"

he also worked on the Manhatten project.

Just interesting trivia.
 
I like that we can fight in one thread but be chums in this one

You lie! I don't fight with you in any of the threads!

Um... except this one now maybe. What's that? You weren't talking to me? I'll just excuse myself from this conversation...

Whoa, mind=blown. Had no idea there were so many possible forms of "we". Possibiliwe's. Ha ha. See what I did there?
Are you talking about different kinds of we's in some other language? I think I remember you talking about knowing another language in another thread. I was a Spanish major, but in Spanish there is only one form of we. There are four different you's though...

I like this thread. Its fun random and free of the trolls
 
I think it's just stress from applications that gets people riled up.

I like the few times I call one of the application services, the operator always sounds exhausted and talks to me like I'm a kid.

You know, that job must really suck though. Everyday you have to take calls from neurotic premeds.

:scared:

haha...more the historical use of the word than different languages. But, yeah, I'm fluent in German and Spanish, and English lol.

Exactly! I think you're right...dealing with stressed out pre-meds, who are neurotic to the marrow, can't be the easier $9/hr to make.

Haha...poor Ian Vick-star.
 
I think I need to cut back on SDN. Now that secondaries and other such application stuff has slowed to a stop for me I'm on here WAY too much. It's like a bored drug or something...

I wonder how much that guy really makes..

Yea, same here. What makes matters worse is that I was already on here a ton during that initial secondary rush... I'm glad I'm not the only one who's seen a slowdown in secondaries. Looking at my mdapps, I see that I've received secondaries from all but 6 of my MD schools. The other 18 have already been sent and most are marked as complete.

Yeah, I think I have yet to hear from KCUMB PCOM PNWU (yes, I applied there) and one or two others. Everything else has been marked as complete except MSU where I'm prob not going to do the secondary because....$80K tuition? No thanks.

I've heard the MSUCOM secondary is pretty long. Definitely not worth it if you're not sure you would attend if accepted.

For various reasons I've already withdrawn 2 of my MD applications and a few of my DO applications but I haven't heard from PCOM or KCUMB either.

From what I gather nobody has heard from them yet. But srsly bro, we're getting back on topic here...

I'm sad Weeds is ending after this season...

Its ending cause its not on one of the big 3 networks. They tend to juice the shows as much as possible. Showtime and HBO try to end things on a good note. Which I prefer.

Go watch breaking bad. Or entourage.

8 seasons is a pretty long run for a premium network. I didn't know they were still making new entourage episodes.

They're not. Have you seen all of entourage? It was an epic show. They have been in the talks for a script for the movie but wahlberg is pretty booked for the time being to work on it.

Yea, then I'm pretty sure I've seen them all.
 
Any Walking Dead fans in the house? Just found out that Universal Studios and The Walking Dead are teaming up this year for Halloween Horror Nights. I haven't been to HHN since high school but this sounds awesome.

Hmmm...is this a Florida thing? Im not recognizing anything except for Universal Studios there. Is it like a big haunted house exhibit??

Yeah it is a Florida thing but people from all over come to Orlando for it. They open the park at night and make everything Halloweenish with multiple scare houses and people running around revving chainsaws behind girls to freak them out. It's spooktacular.

But with the theme being The Walking Dead this year I can imagine there being hordes of zombies walking around the park and scaring the crap out of people in the haunted houses. Should be awesome.

On a similar note, they also have zombie runs where you register to run in a race with a bunch of zombies running after you. I would also like to do that.

Gotta scratch off some of these items on my bucketlist before the worlds ends in December!

sounds pretty cool!

wish I were closer to Orlando, I love Halloween.


As a caution, with the whole walking dead thing, you should try to avoid anyone munching on bath salts. 😀

Yeah seriously, those damn methheads trying to get a "legal" fix. What crazy synthetic drug will they start selling next?
 
Soo what did everyone think of the dark knight rises?
 
Haven't seen it yet either, but I have the feeling im going to splurge for IMAX on this one...
 
DARK KNIGHT SPOILER ALERT:






























The villain's name is Bane.
 
So I was volunteering when this happened to me

A girl I hadn't seen before was also working, she was on community service duty. I noticed she was kinda hot, she had a really nice body and good face. I decided to talk to her for a little bit to pass time.

Then I went away to do something and came back, and she kind walked up to me and asked if I wanted any "services" done.

It was a really strange feeling to be honest. I never subscribed to the theory of a primitive brain and evolved brain, but in that moment I could tell. It felt like electric shocks in my head, one part of my brain was fighting the other evolved brain. It felt so weird it was like shivers down my body.

She was legitimately hot, and therefore under any other circumstances than that I would not hesitate. But luckily my morality won over and I acted dumb and proceeded to leave.

That was the first time a girl has ever offered that to me. It was the most difficult five seconds of my life ever.

It's hard to describe the feeling, it's like two great tides pulling against each other.

I can't help but feel this was some kind of divine test of my ethics.

I'd be sure to add this to any PS, secondary or interview you can... :laugh:
