The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

Watching Southland, this show is the shit

Checking in on you twats because I don't feel like writing this 7 page paper on Aristotle that's due in 6 hours.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Jason Becker rules. Aristotle rules (actually, he doesn't; what is your prompt?)

Cunt.

Continence, incontinence, temperance, and intemperance. I'm supposed to go over the differences and commonalities and bullshit. Problem is...that's not a seven page paper. That's like...4. Maybe 5.

There's gonna be an awful lot of nothing in this paper. I really hate this shit, because it essentially forces me to make my writing worse just to fill space. Length requirements are the absolute bane of my existence. If I can say what I need to say in 2000 words, why do you need to watch me jerk myself off for 3 more pages? Bitch is just making both our lives harder.

 

[Addo_Of_Nex]

Oh, I certainly identify with the problem of space constraints when you're not just filling empty space.

I assume you're working off of Nicomachean Ethics and De Anima? The best approach is to just repeat the logical structure of the aforementioned works (temperance is a big one in those two) and add passing commentary on them to meet the length requirement. If you ever feel like you're being too obvious, you're probably doing something right.

Just NE. I'm pretty much just rephrasing his arguments and often just quoting verbatim, but I can tell it's not gonna be enough. I'll probably just submit it under the length requirement, and we'll see how seriously she takes them. It's hard to believe that after reading 30 other 7 page papers she'll really be that disappointed that mine is short.

I had to sing a Ricky Martin song for an ensemble and range goes up to an A4. Being that I'm a bass, I sound goofy as fuck. And it's god damn Ricky Martin

My roommate packed me a lunch, awwwwwwwwww

It's SO SMALL though ;__;

 

[ZeroSleep]

I use to pack my lunch, but with how work is lately I have to eat out just to get some peace of mind away from the office.

I've had some professors who've only dinged me a little bit because I made a concise, well-organized argument that fell a couple pages short of the requirement.

And then I've had others who knocked 30% off in the same circumstances.

I'm writing this from my PS3 browser. Yes, some people actually use it. Still beats IE.

Sweden, the lonely bastion of Playstation users......and awesome metal (not lonely on that regard though).

We're doing the "Do you really want it?" one.

Man, I hope my area stays above 32 degrees when that weather front works its way here tomorrow.

I've been told I'm a... tenor? I can do decent baritone though. Eh. Fuck this technical term bullshit.

 

[viewerfromnihil]

It's pretty important tbh. My voice sounds entirely different in my comfortable range, from a C2 to B3, than it does from the range I have to sing in this particular piece, from C4 to A4. If the performance was intended to be in more of a rock style, then the sound wouldn't be a problem because I could subvert into a throatier mid-voice tone. Unfortunately for my illusion of masculinity, it is not.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Arrow and scotch. Good buzz

 

[monoxide_child]

Eh. Fuck this technical term bullshit.

+1
i've been told i sing "really good" but i have no fucking clue which "type" of "singing-voice" i have, partially (if not mostly) just because i just don't give a rat's ass

 

[damnromulans]

People probably just tell you that to shut you up
