The answer’s no. The matter still does it’s thing: it bounces around regardless of whether you’re there or not — but sound is only the brain’s interpretation of what’s going on in the outside world. Interpretations can’t exist without interpreters.
Like the reason we like the taste of sugar is because of the way our brains adapted, not because of anything inherent in sugar....

It’s going to be a long night.
Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.
Woman: Well, why can't I have birth control?
Government: Because. Sex isn't for recreation.
Woman: It can help regulate my period and benefit me in other ways.
Government: Too bad.
Man: For no reason other than for recreational sex, may I have birth control?
Government: Do you have a penis?
Man: YES, YES I DO!!
Government: WELL HOWDY, VALID CITIZEN. You can buy condoms by the dozens. Here, here's a pack of special condom for "His Pleasure." Oooh, these come in different colours and flavours. Here, try these. They have ribs on them. And this one glows in the dark!! LOL OMG DICK LIGHTSABER!!
Government: But seriously, you're a man. You can do what ever you want.
Woman: But-
Government: Shut up, you sinning, freeloading hussy.

But seriously, how does playing rock music over the Camelot Overture of my alarm improve the situation? I mean, I understand if she doesn’t like it (though she never directly said anything), but playing other music over it just creates cacophony. Why would you do that?
The ten scaries states to be an atheist. →
uglyuglyugly:
Let’s be clear. It’s not like it’s easy to be an atheist anywhere in the U.S. Atheists are the most distrusted and disliked of all minority groups — more than blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Muslims, immigrants, and gays and lesbians — and polls show that Americans are less likely to vote for an atheist than they are for a person in any other minority or marginalized category. And this...

So, on Facebook...
I went on a unfriending spree recently and got down to 200 friends. Then I noticed that there were exactly 99 photos of me. Just now I was tagged in one more photo and I was really excited about the even hundreds, then I noticed that I’m down to 199 friends. Damn.

My roommate: Okay, cool.
I just got an email from the housing department...
… I might be moving this weekend! My sanity will be restored!

I'm officially obsessed with Ernest Chausson.
He’s just an amazing composer. I can’t even explain.

If my will power is strong enough I won’t be on Tumblr at all. This is an addiction and it’s starting to get in the way of homework. I’ll be back by spring break though.
