THE BEST ANIME

• Question: 3. - Anonymous
• Answer:

  3. You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You have enough time to make ONE phone call. Who do you call? What do you tell them?

  
  No one, if you want a slightly larger chance of living. It’s become common sense to not use phones on planes, and even a nonstop flight would land for an emergency like that. Besides, could you imagine if the plane couldn’t land properly and everyone died because some prick just had to say bye to their loved ones? (Just to clarify, the person is a prick because of causing the deaths of other people, not for wanting to say bye to their loved ones)

• 7. Would you rather be hurt by the one you trust the most or the one you love the most?
• 8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say?
• 9. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give up one year of yours. Do you do it? Why or Why not?

• 13.When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? Who was it? What did you have to tell the person?

• 23. When was the last time you were nice to someone and did NOT expect anything in return for it?
• 24.Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a broken heart, or never loved at all? Why?

Today in labor history, May 28, 1946:  At least 30,000 workers in Rochester, NY, participate in a general strike in support of the nearly 500 municipal workers who had been fired for forming a union.  The next day, the city agreed to reinstate all of the discharged workers, drop the illegal charges against arrested pickets, and recognize the workers’ right to organize and bargain collectively.

All this time, I thought I didn’t like coffee because it was too hot and I just hated hot beverages. But after getting an iced coffee today, I realized that I just didn’t like it at all.

And this is just speculation, but my disdain for it may have increased just a tad by having a scalding hot cup of it spill onto my knee.

In lighter news, today was pretty fun and I got to hang with some cool people

and she was indian. As is customary for indian subs, after she put everyone to work, she nonchalantly caroused over to where I was after putting everyone to work, and brought up the standard conversation starter for a sub and a student. After I gave her the answers she was looking for, she engaged me in a little chat about her life and my life. And even though I got an insane crick in my neck from having my head turned at a large angle for an extremely long time, and I would fill in odd silences by attempting to read Chapter 8 of The Hobbit like everyone was supposed to, after a while everything just went smoothly, and it was actually enjoyable. There’s a lot of wisdom in someone who’s lived in your town 26 more years than you have, and who seems to know everything about everyone. I’m not exactly sure where I’m going with this, but it was kind of nice
