I'm working on Japanese and my wife is working on her Italian so we can really mess with my daughter's mind if she ever tries drugs.

Yeah, portuguese. We can "understand" spanish because its quite similar, but, at the same time, its quite different.
Thats why I said I can speak a bit of spanish.
French, its because I studied it a long time ago. Was good at it, but its been more than 10 years last time I used it, so I really cant remember.

Okay, this London stuff is seriously messed up. From reddit:

Quote:
What is utterly striking about these events is how devoid of political motive they are. It's pure wanton and opportunistic destructiveness; rioting not to make a point but just for fun. The emphasis on arson-for-a-laugh is eye opening too. What's most shocking is that these people walk among us. The people who are doing this sit next to you on the tube, serve you in shops... this is painting a dismal picture of how close we are to animals.

My question is, how do they know it's devoid of political motive? That kind of statement is very difficult to prove one way or the other.

Well, it started as a peaceful anti-police brutality protest. People unaffiliated with that protest then started getting raucous and a mob mentality took over, it seems.

It's hard to understand from a cultured perspective, but is actually a pretty fundamental animal aspect of humanity. Kinda a fight or flight reaction being triggered by other peoples' fight or flight reactions, even though you are not aware of what the actual danger is. And in the context of a mob, you are far more likely to choose fight (as you begin to comprehend others as your "allies" in the situation, and there's minimal risk inherent in being an aggressor when the riot begins).

There are a lot of human quirks that really only start appearing in groups, and the people in them aren't really aware of how their behaviors change.

For example, take a busy building in which everyone is trying to get in or out. The fastest way to get everyone through is an efficient single-file line (or lines). But as the crowd grows, instinct urges you to get to your destination faster. So you start rushing more and more, getting closer to each other than you would ever wish to do normally (especially since Western culture generally defines personal space to be a very wide area). Eventually, that turns into real pushing, and you need to really fight to get through the door (though not in a literal sense).

It's even worse in instances where you perceive an actual benefit in getting there faster, like when boarding a bus or train.

I find it hilarious that most of the time Anti-Police Brutality Protests end up in riots and end up with people being hit with police batons. Which fuels the protests, which fuels the riots, which fuels the alleged beatings ...

As someone that's been on the opposite side of said riot, with the shields and batons essentially hockey goalie armor, it's ******** hard to aim a police baton at someone's shoulder when they freaking charge at you with a baseball bat and try to jive about like they're ninjas because they watched an episode of Naruto. Or, you know, run face first into a riot shield breaking their own noses. And no matter what, anything you do will be called brutality. Not that real brutality doesn't exist, but it is irritating when everything you do is construed as being malevolent.

After the epileptic seizure faded and I was able to fully enjoy the movie in its entirety without worrying about chewing off my own tongue, I found it pretty OH GOD WHAT THE **** AM I WATCHING?!

Thundercats has been pretty decent, for all of three episodes thus far. Adventure Time and Regular Show have been much better than I had figured them to be, though the last AT did kind of annoy me because it was so D'AWW AND THEN STATUS QUO THEN D'AWW AGAIN in the span of like three minutes. The new Looney Toons hasn't been bad, getting progressively better with each try. I especially like how Lola turned out; Finally a regular looney female character. The new Avatar should be starting up, and I openly admit I'm pretty psyched for that, and I'm guessing sometime in the middle the new Ponies should start up as well.

I watch way too many cartoons.

Let's see. Adventure Time, Regular Show, Looney Toons, and Thundercats are all Cartoon Network, My Little Pony is Hub, and Avatar is presumably going to be one of the Nicktoons channels that for the life of me I can't remember which.

Glee and Community is so meh. Scrubs, Family Guy and The Big Bang Theory is where it's at. And I only watch Scrubs because of Dr. Cox.
