2 Friends.
2 Funny conversations.
1 Night.
-> Dead cell phone battery
-> 2 more lines on my cell phone bill (same 2 numbers on the rest of the bill...)
-> Little closer to hearing loss (thanks NK for the article)
-> 1 blog post
I'll briefly bitch about the first one and I'll write about the fourth item in a bit. Please be patient, or skip the next paragraph if you don't want to hear me whine (again).
My cell phone only gives me like a 5 second (no joke) warning before the battery dies. I was lazily lying around on my futon when I heard the beep (really quietly too) and by the time I ran (without bruising myself along the way) to the charger in the bedroom, the call had dropped and the stupid phone was dead. I live in an 800 sqft apartment. The distance is pretty short. But as I whine about this minor incident, I'm thinking to myself, DUDE, maybe I should look to see if there is a setting for this? Hmm. I should look. But my phone is in the bedroom and I'm in the living room. I'll forget by the time I get there. Oooh. I just got a text. It'll have to wait.
OK, so this is what I wanted to write about! Because I think they're funny.
Quote from friend 1:
As he was trying to remember what experiment he was going to conduct (on himself):
"Man, it was going to be such a cool experiment too! I was even going to test something."
I've always thought words "experiment" and "test" are synonyms and they kindda mean the same thing in this context... Like don't you test something in any experiment? Why did he think it was so cool that this "experiment" came with a test? Or am I the stupid one here? Anyone? Something = hypothesis???
And my friend 2 told me that he sometimes cries when he watches cheesy STOOPID romantic comedy movies but he wouldn't cry if I died of cancer. But maybe if I was murdered. I was going to ask what if it was suicide but I figured he would just tell me that he'd be pissed so I didn't ask. So what if it was an accident? Like if I get hit by a car or something?
Note to self: Next time, hit "PUBLISH POST" when you're done writing...

It depends if you have a hypothesis or not. If you do, then you're usually testing that hypothesis. I guess anything you try is technically an experiment, but I think few people form a hypothesis before for example doing a keg-stand or drinking two bottles of champagne while on Vicadin.
