Internet Memes

The Ultimate Internet Love Song

I don't keep up on internet meme's but when I heard this song I thought it would be interesting to look them up. While I did know a lot of them, there were a few I've never heard of before. I've linked each one I found with a page of the meme or about it. Let me know if I've missed any. 

When it came to you and me I asked Will we blend
And like David after dentist I didn't know what was happenin'
But like Leo, strolling through my mind like you do
And I knew, all my love are belong to you

boom goes my heart, it'll never stop
Like Appalachian State girl, you hot hot hot
Are you from heaven baby, cuz that's how you make me feel
Put shoe on head so I know that you're real

Demotivate my nerve, Imma stumbleupon ya
I'm sweating so much people thinkin' I'm Balmer
Cuz your love, like charlie, bit me, and I started acting crazy
Got me so mixed up inside, I'm sounding like the grape lady

Damn, what am I doing man, I'm wracked by doubt
I'm freaking like someone canceled my Warcraft account
Got all of these emotions locked up inside
Gotta tell you how I feel but, Fuck it, I'll do it live

You're cuter than a kid in the Landlord video
Make me laugh like a cat playing on the piano
And I mean this when I say it baby, never forget
That I love you even more than the Internet

Phase two, we're together like bubb and little sister
and my heart goes Woo Woo every time that i miss you
When you're gone I feel sick like a couple girls with a cup
but you know I roll like Rick, and Ill never give you up

And I'll never let you down, it's time to make a statement
I'm coming in with confidence like Leroy Jenkins
Where Chris Crocker at, get that dude on the phone
Cuz just like Britney Spears I won't leave you alone

Got me walking on air like the Peter Pan man
Call me Star Wars kid, cuz my love's embarrassing'
Intrude your bedroom, run and tell dat son
And like-a long cat, my love goes on and on

I'm a numa new man, I'm a he, you my Ho
Pop the question, an impress ya, like Mahir I kiss yo'
I got down on one knee to make a statement so bold
Like leprechaun in a tree, let me give you the gold

You haxored my heart, and I don't even mind
Got me dancing inside like it's peanut butter jelly time
And I mean this when I say it baby, never forget
That I love you even more than the Internet

Epic fail, you shut me down, sad like Keanu.
I'm in pain, crying out like you tazed me bro
Feeling like you kicked my heart screaming this is Sparta
now it's ripped out of my chest and it's torn apart ya...

You left a hole in my soul, a black pit like Goatse.
Can't prance like Cera, cause I'm feelin low seeAll I ever wanted from ya baby was to be your manbut now just like Piccard I got my head in my hands

Can't hold back the tears, I gotta let em' go
And I'm crying like I just wanted to make it snow
Now I'm bitter baby, when I think about that day
I'm like I commenter on digg, I got nothing nice to say

But time heals all, a year later you're online
And like MySpace, I haven't seen ya in a while
We're so far apart girl, you're on a different track
but still just like Facebook, (I) want the old you back

(Cuz)

Damn I miss you, girl when you coming home?
I'm lost without you, boo, I'm forever alone
And I mean it when I say it, baby, never forget
that I love you even more than the Internet.

Maybe
Probably not, to be honest

Sister Site

So, I haven't been able to think up enough interesting things and write a few paragraphs on them in awhile. However, I have started up another blog which is documenting my museum collections, and is pretty cool to boot.

There I will be displaying:

• Fossils
• Rocks, minerals, sands
• Spiders, insects, bugs
• Antiques
• Pieces of History
• Coins, bills
• And lots more!

So stop on by and have a look at the online exhibits!

THE SHOLESONIAN

Amazing Animals - Transparent Skull

So first off, I apologize for not posting anything new in awhile, it's been pretty hectic here and even now I'm supposed to be doing some other work--but procrastination gets the best of me every time. Hopefully over the summer this blog will be filled with even more interesting tid bits of trivia, even if the posts are relatively smaller than I usually do.

Now, look at this fish in its eyes, that is if you can find them.

If you guessed that they were the two black dots above its mouth you are wrong. Those are in fact are the nostrils of the Barreleye Fish (belonging to the family Opisthoproctidae). The eyes on the other hand are those green bulbous things inside its skull. You see this particular fish, which lives at great depth, has a transparent fleshy dome that protects its inner tissue. It's been known since the late thirties but all the specimens that were collected were of poor quality, mangled from being captured (dead), and it wasn't until 2004 that scientists were able to fully understand the strange body that it had. The eyes are able to rotate within this glass-like shell and are well adapted to collecting what little sunlight makes it down into the deep abyss.

Again, sorry about cutting this one short (I have to get back to studying), but if you want to see some actual footage of the Barreleye fish, check out the link to National Geographic.

Guest Post - An Awesome Word

Awesome.'

This particular word has to be one of my most overused descriptive terms, and I'm sure it's one of yours, too. How can it not be, though? It's such an awesome word to use!

Everyone's opinion of what is awesome is different. A quick Google search of "what is awesome?" will reveal over 166,000,000 hits! Yes, millions of websites devoted to all things awesome! ...Well, what the creators of the sites find awesome, anyway. Me? Personally, I find narwhals and elephants awesome...probably to the point of obsession. You? Most likely not so much.

I also find atomic bombs and Adolf Hitler awesome, too. Wait, before you bite my head off for being inconsiderate, keep in mind that 'awesome' is an antagonym; it has two almost completely opposite definitions. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, 'awesome' can mean either "extremely impressive" or "inspiring great fear."

Of course, many people never think about the latter definition and automatically assume one is referring to the "good" sense of the word. That's what I like about 'awesome.' It's so easy to keep your frenemies guessing (not that I have any!) and your parents wondering why you're being so nice to your younger brother. Think about it! Without even lying, you can tell that flippy-haired snob in your English class, "Your dress is awesome today!" (Hey, I've seen some pretty scary looking monstrosities that have been passed off as "acceptable clothing.") and walk away with a coy smile on your face while she sits there with her mouth agape. OR, when your brother brings home another one of his macaroni masterpieces, say "Hey, little bro, your artwork is awesome!" (of course, within earshot of your mom) and then later have a nightmare about the macaroni man with a foot protruding from his eye.

Like I said, 'awesome' is an awesome word. Next time you use it, though, remember both of its contexts. Oh, and have an awesome day! ;D

-R is for Rachel!

I would also have to agree with Rachel on this one. When writing papers, instructors generally don't want to see such vague words as awesome-be descriptive, what is it that makes it awesome?

People of Interest - Hennig Brand

Wow, it has been awhile since I've posted anything on here (December was a very busy month here). However, I have not forgotten the [rq} and will try to continue with interesting articles to get the brain juices flowing (or at least get more synapses working). So to start off the year I bring you the man who discovered element fifteen - Phosphorous.

I stumbled across this little fact about three years ago in Discover magazine. Apparently the guy - Hennig Brand who was a German alchemist after being a soldier - was like most other alchemists searching for a way to create gold synthetically. I should mention here that alchemy is a fake science and that he was looking for the Philosopher's Stone to turn everyday items into gold.

In his pursuits he came up with a plan which he hoped would be the key. He took fifty buckets of his own urine and stored them in his basement for months. He then boiled the urine until it became a thick syrup, did a few more alchemical steps, and eventually discovered a glowing substance on the surface of the urine. Lo and behold it was the new element Phosphorous. But back in 1669 it was normal to keep these kinds of discoveries secret - lest he actually discover a way to turn urine into gold.

Well let's hope this is the first of even more 2010 articles, and remember that you can write your own Guest Posts.

Gigapixels!

Ok, if you didn't notice I added the new Gigapixels to the right hand side bar. The original [rq} contained a segment entitled Megapixels which showcased some spectacular images I had saved on my computer, but since that is an actual segment of a real magazine (either Discover or Popular Mechanics), I renamed it. Also the gadget I'm using takes photos from a specific source, I believe it's set to Flickr now so all I need to do is type in a keyword to get some cool photos. So if anyone wants to suggest a keyword or an albulm to display here on the site, just drop it in the suggestion form.

Comics!

Yeah, I have no time, and by posting this I'm just continuing eleven hours of procrastination. So here are some comics for you to enjoy. Remember they belong to their respective owners. Click on them bring up better quality images, for some reason they are pretty bad quality here.
