Holy fuck I was laughing my ass off, but there may be something weird if I did that. I mean, I was shaking, but honestly, I don't know what to feel about it except to laugh.

How do you feel when something bad happens to you?

The Flood / Small Space Thread :3 (An expanding journey!)
« on: May 11, 2015, 11:00:43 PM »
Just a thread about astronomy and such with sites and other things that can give a small interest to astronomy to you guys. I'm bored, so let's start this off, shall we? I will provide you guys with some sites (space exploration related that provide pictures and info to space objects), some software to help map the stars so you can one night look up and say "Oh, that's Jupiter right above me!", and a few other things.

Space Websites
NASA
SPACE
ESO
SpaceX
Astronomy

Here, you'll find plans for future space flight missions. What you see here is the future of flight and technology in an ever evolving state. From plans for many types of missions to be announced, to the phases of the moon, these websites do give a good understanding of what we are capable of. Just a quick look around can take you to new stuff you may have never seen before.

Software
Stellarium
NEAVE Interactive Sky Map

This is free software you can download on your computer. Useful with a telescope. What this software is is essentially a tool to help you find Messier Objects in the night sky, planets, and even stars. Reliable and easy to use, Stellarium is a great tool for anyone to use. It comes with many useful tools to aid in planning and the like. Feel free to give it a download and mess around with it.
NEAVE is a website that holds a skymap right on your browser. Really simple and all you really need is where you live. Skip through times to see where objects will be during certain times of days and such. If you don't feel like downloading something, use this. It's simple and nicely made.

Some Good Reads
The Martian
An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth

Videos
This is the beginning of the Crash Course! series you may have heard of. Really informative videos of the solar system and more. It's not a completed series yet, but it is still in progress.
Here is a playlist basics of operating a telescope from a Youtube channel that helped me quite a bit. This guy teaches you what you should look for, what can suit your needs, and even explain some things you may not understand. A little cheesy, but still really helpful stuff.

Interested in a Telescope?
Telescopes and much, much more!
A little bit of research goes a long way, be sure to research what type of telescope you'd want for your needs. Hell, you don't need a telescope to enjoy the night sky, binoculars do well, too! This website is dedicated to amateur and experienced astronomers. You'll find all types of stuff here. I recommend an equatorial mount, a little bit of a hassle to keep, but worth it, since the main purpose of it is to counter the Earth's rotation and be able to track objects easy. Please note, doing this as a hobby can be expensive, but the results are well worth the cost if you're really into this.

Misc...
Spot the Station!
NASA has a nifty little thing where you can spot the ISS with a little help from them. All that's needed is a phone/email and NASA will send alerts occasionally to you so you can look up and see the ISS above you. Comes with instructions to read the directions on where to find the ISS and how to do it with tips. Try and challenge yourself to find it.


Well, honestly, so far this is all I can think of. Any ideas to add on this thread would be appreciated and I can update it. Right now I'm a little busy with some school work, but hey, hope this helps a bit in wanting a little more knowledge of stuff. I plan on expanding this much more as time goes by.

Serious / "White Appreciation Day" backlash at restaurant
« on: May 11, 2015, 12:46:13 AM »
So a Mexican owner of a BBQ joint wants to make a 'White Appreciation Day" in his restaurant, in which whites receive a 10 percent discount off their purchase.

Quote
"We have a whole month for Black History Month," Antillon told the outlet. "We have a whole month for Hispanic Heritage Month, so we thought the least we could do was offer one day to appreciate white Americans."

He faced bomb threats over this, but still continues to do the event. Seriously, why the fuck are people getting offended by this shit? White people can't get a fucking day of appreciation while minorities can get months? Seriously, it's something HE wants to do, what's wrong with that?

Flaig struggled to escape while a second man, who police have yet to identify or arrest, punched the victim.

Unable to break free, Flaig allegedly bit the victim in the crotch and ran off.

"The bitee actually got the better of him in the fist fight. After we broke them up is when he disclosed he'd been bitten in the testicles," witness Thomas Bourne told NBC affiliate WBAL.

The Flood / Got my first complaint from a customer at work today
« on: May 08, 2015, 01:37:27 AM »
I was doing front counter and after a small rush hour I did my work. Like 20 minutes after that I get told by a manager to meet up with some others. My first thought is "wut i dun deserve a raise fuck you", while walking to them. I sat down and apparently I got a complaint about making a "smart comment" about an overweight little girl and when the mom and daughter went home the girl cried about the comment I supposedly made. The woman never got my name since I didn't wear a nametag and never said what I said.

So it wasn't an official warning and my managers said I was good so nothing to worry about! Hooray for fat fucks trying to ruin the day. Hopefully whoever made that smart comment changed the child sea orca's life to be not fat.

The Flood / I will call a new place of work for an interview today
« on: May 01, 2015, 01:33:14 PM »
Seems like the economy is getting a little better now, or because I have experience. Working at a good gas station seems like fun, and them checks my sister always talked about every week sound promising. The pay won't be too different honestly, just a quarter or two difference from minimum wage.

Should I go for it, Flood, or should I wait for another job opportunity? I'll call after this class ends.
