Average

Average for you is different than average for me or another person.

Hot Chocolate

I had some hot chocolate earlier.

Beer Bottle Flutes

Drill some holes in the side of beer bottles and you have a more versatile musical instrument than just having a static amount of liquid in the bottle. It would be just like playing a flute or recorder.

Zebra Green

Zebra Green would be a cool color.

White Noise

Just listening to some white noise while I think, study, and do stuff.

Taking For Granted = Subliminal Assumptions

EVERYBODY assumes. It is how we function in life. 'Assuming' really shouldn't have a negative connotation (Re: "When you assume, you make an 'ass of u and me'"). Assumptions are just conclusions. Some are backed by more experience/knowledge than others. So, the solution to 'bad' assumptions is education and communication.

Quote: I'd Rather People Think I Think They're Dumb, Than Confirm It.

The title is just a shorter version for easy consumption. The following extended quote explains just a little more:

"I'd rather people think I think they're dumb, than to confirm I think they are."

This came up when I was trying to explain something. I either had to assume they didn't know something "basic", or ask them if they knew of the said something that was "common knowledge".

A way to combat this: http://xkcd.com/1053/

Question = Questions + Statements; Answer = 2 * Answer

Every time a question is asked, a statement is also being made. A lot of times, when a question is asked, it is actually another question that is really asked. And, another question (in addition) is always answered.

Think about it.

Coolest State

What's the coolest state with its name spelled backwards?

Superpowers

I secretly still hope that I have superpowers.

Criminal Activities

If I were a criminal of the law trying not to get caught, then I would just not engage in criminal activity in the first place.

Quote: It's Not You, It's Your Brain

"You might pass 5,000 cars on your morning commute, and 4,999 of them might be perfect, polite drivers. But then you pass that one guy in the SUV who literally stuck his buttocks out of his side window and took a flying shit on your hood. When you get to work, are you going to talk about the 4,999 good drivers or the flying hood shitter? You're going to focus on the negative, because your brain is hardwired to devote more attention to the misery in life." - Cracked.com

Maybe we should start complementing the regular good every day, instead of taking it for granted.

Bucket List: Listen to the Homeless

A possible item to have for a bucket list is to spend time listening to the life story of a person on the streets or somebody asking for money.

Michael Jackson Beatles

Sing The Beatles, Michael Jackson style.

Random: Self: Tumblr For the Past Three Years

My Tumblr posts for the past year have a completely different feeling to them than the year prior to this. One of the best ways to go through many Tumblr posts is through the archive style.

Random: Self: Drinking Water

Your mouth should find the opening for the water bottle before you raise it up.

Language: Define Kumbaya

Kumbaya roughly means "come by here"

Programming: Android: Java: Static in Classes

One can only access static variables and functions in another class without creating a new instance of the helper class; One can use ClassName.variable directly, if the variable is static.

Non-static variables and functions require an instantiation to access through; ClassName cn = new ClassName(); cn.variable;

Initial Commit

My other "random" blog was starting to get too standardized and too much traffic. So I'm starting over with some new goals in mind.

• Mainly short posts, possibly many one-liners.
• I want to write the many things I learn, that other people couldn't possibly find useful.
• Things will not be explained on here. Thinking/searching may be required for readers and myself when I reread posts.

Things I post about may or may not be my main focus in my life at the moment. Though, many things should be relate to coding/programming because it is a big part of my life.
