It WAS. It really was. It didn't help that my sorta-kinda-not-really-yet in-laws live here and could very easily have seen the awkwardness ensue.

lol that would of been funny if they saw that

Hey Stellar I have taked to you in forever, how are you doing?
|
I'm doing okay, though I'm right about to get to sleep actually. How have you been? Perhaps we can continue this conversation when I wake up? [sweat] I guess that's one of the nice things about forums?

This place sure is lively...

So my boyfriend is having the weirdest meltdown of the most awesome variety right now.
He's under attack by cosmology thoughts and he's just come to the conclusion that it's possible that every action we make changes the past, and we don't know it because we adapt so well to the new past being the real past that we don't question it. |
You cant change the past..if anything the actions we make now effect the future? o.o

Oops I've been summoned. So...get this. Space as we commonly know it is three-dimensional, but in fact there are at least five we can directly observe and up to 11 in existence. But for now we're talking about the ones we have directly observed.
We are three-dimensional beings. We have length, width, and depth. This much we know. Well, Carl Sagan can describe the basic information and introduce you to the concept of time as a spatial dimension better than I can, so I'll let you watch that video. Now, going to the concept of time as a spatial dimension. If any dimension is a vector, think of what happens when we move an object, even in a single dimension - along a single vector - for instance, a straight vertical drop for a rock into water. The ripples move in ALL dimensions. Now, imagine the apple moving through Flatland again. Suppose Triangle decides to try taking a bite out of the apple. Imagine Triangle's corner scraping a piece of apple off as it moves by. Of course, the piece of apple is still only going to be a two-dimensional "moment" to Triangle, but let's look at the apple's perspective. As it moved by, a piece of it just got ripped out. Imagine the physical forces in play on the apple. The change is mostly unidirectional, but there's an omnidirectional "shock" that propagates through the entire apple. So then, suppose time is a spatial dimension that we only see a small piece of as we go. There are, then, three possibilities. One is that it just behaves that much differently than any other dimension and everything we do to it is 100% unidirectional, which then becomes our standard view of the nature of time. But, if time is a spatial dimension it should behave like any other spatial dimension. So, we're left with two equally terrifying possibilities: One is that everything is fixed - past, present, and future. Our free will, our lives, EVERYTHING about us, is just an illusion as we observe a fixed path in a fixed dimension. The other is that the past is just as mutable as the future, and in fact EVERYTHING we do sends ripples back in time and changes the past in some small way, and our minds simply adapt to the changes because...the new past is now our past; naturally we remember things as they were as a result of what we've done. |
I have no idea what your talking about o.o
It's 6:30am it's to early for this D: |
If nothing else, I feel like your observation should just serve to prove that time is not a spatial dimension. Generally, when you make an assumption that implies results that make your head hurt in ways that seem possibly paradoxical, it's safer to toss out the assumption altogether.
But perhaps I would be convinced otherwise if I actually watched that video. I will say, though, that the concept of everything being fixed is much easier to swallow than this thing about sending ripples back in time to change the past and our minds adjusting to it. That makes me uncomfortable on multiple levels. |
After a long day i have returned :D
|
I'm around. Just got back from seeing Man of Steel. I wasn't impressed.
|
I heard it was good tho o.o
|
It was alright. Bit too rushed for my tastes, though there were a few scenes here and there that I liked. Overall it felt a bit like getting hit over the head repeatedly with all the fate of mankind/destiny stuff and the fight scenes were more than half the friggin movie, I swear. xP
|
<w< Maybe i'll watch it later tonight...
|
I will be very cross with the lot of you if you let this place die out just because Az is currently on hiatus. In other words...let me love you!
|
Nice zombie avatar there!
When are we going to play again? |
Soonish? Couldn't tell you off the top of my head...it's too early and I am not a morning person.

-rolls around in thread-

/chases after the rolling Iku
How have you been? |
