Brilliantly funny students’ quotes

Here’s something meant to put a big smile on your face. If it doesn’t, you are either blind or just had chemistry hours today (friends know what I mean…). Either way, read on!

What can one say after all of this? “Brilliant students DO exist, teacher!” :) )

ShiFt happens

As you may have noticed, I’ve changed the template.
These are times of civil unrest (actually, no they’re not, but let’s pretend it is so) so one must adapt to the changes of the environment, as the true animal he is.
I’d like to know your opinion on the new theme, any advices and criticism is highly cherished and recommended.
Don’t know if I’ll stick with this one yet, because I am currently trying out more interesting and never-before-seen-by-the-average-Joe-that-only-surfs-the-net-for-one-hour-a-week (wow, that’s gotta be the longest one I’ve come up with by now – give it up for t3h M0ony and his not-so-funny-or-functional-thingy/thingies) features for the blog.
I’ll keep you informed! I hope you’ll do the same, either by mail, or by comments.

Fun-thingy-you-use-to-have-fun

Here is nice little game/tool/fun-thingy-you-use-to-have-fun :

Just draw a 3D line and then let it spin, and spin, and spin. Maybe it’ll reach a form you can understand. Then it gets cool…

Historical?

Yesterday I went to the football match Romania – Albania with 6 of my closest friends.

Of course we got there half an hour before the start of the game and we had to trample on (and get trampled on) a crowd of fans to get some tickets (and of course we twice sat in the wrong line, finally getting tickets for the 1st stand, although we wanted to go to the 2nd one). Some were jumping over the fence, some were selling overpriced tickets…everyday Romania, what can I say?

We managed to buy tickets 5 minutes after the start of the game. We entered the complex and started running towards the stadium. After passing a couple of gates, we found out one of the two 1st stands was full, so we had to run another quarter-stadium to get to the second one. Finally getting there, we were checked (for weapons or other dangerous items?) and I was asked to leave a water bottle there. Of course I had two with me, so no harm done there. The trouble was the others had gone on without me, so for about a minute I had to guess the way they had taken, before finally finding them. We finally found 7 seats in a row in the corner of the stadium, put some paper on them (see, the Math notebook DOES help) and started watching the game, 10 minutes in.

I’ve nothing to say about the way the lads played. Wonderful! Half-time found Romania having a goal’s advantage over Albania, and us on our feet, singing and shouting the team on. Absolutely wonderful! We were clearly dominating the game, creating lots of opportunities and calmly controlling the ball. Gabriel Tamas scored in about the 53′rd minute from a well-taken-torpedo-like-struck free kick, making it 2-0 for us. Waves begun by the fans started traveling along the stadium, most of them being stopped by the rich guys over at the 0 stand. The atmosphere was of elation and complete happiness. 10 Minutes later, Daniel Niculae managed to score the 3rd goal for Romania but a couple of minutes later, Albania put one in, the score then being 3-1. Just one minute later, Gigel Bucur sent a good pass to Niculae, who managed to score again for 4-1. Bogdan Lobont, the goalkeeper for the Romanian national team, managed some spectacular saves for which the fans repaid him by shouting his name when Romania was awarded a penalty in the end of the match, wanting him to take it. He didn’t take it, but Ciprian Marica did, and he did it well, taking the score to 5-1 (‘70). One minute later, another penalty was awarded for Romania, forcing the referee to give the second red card for Albania’s team. The crowd once again shouted Lobont’s name, but Dica took the penalty, setting the score as it would eventually be until the end, at 6-1 for Romania.

Everybody was singing, everybody was cheering, we were all completely satisfied with the result.

After the match was over, we stayed a couple more minutes to watch the fireworks that marked the Romanian qualification at the Euro 2008, but also the end of an era. An era in which “Lia Manoliu” was the national stadium for the Romanian team, an arena which I’m sure most of us will remember for a long time as a monument, maybe even as long as we live. The stadium is being demolished, the demolition symbolically starting at the end of the match. In it’s place a new one will be built, much bigger and much more modern.

After the match, going out of the stadium, we kept on cheering the win and the qualification of our national team with much joy. At the end of the day, I can truly say it’s been a very spectacular and special one, that I shall never forget for as long as I live, due to the win we managed, the qualification, the historical event of the demolition being started and the friends that were close to me. ROMANIA FTW!!!111!!oneone!!1!!

PC games on the PS3?

Why not?

A UK-based company under the name of StreamMyGame.com claims it has managed to create a system of hypertext links to computers that can be used remotely to play PC games by other visitors on the PC or other platforms.
Right now the games must be compatible to either Windows XP or Vista, supporting DirectX8, DirectX9, DirectX10 and OpenGL formats on resolutions up to HDTV 3200×2400. However, they promise to develop a Linux-based system by the end of the year, allowing games to be played on the(-also-Linux-based) PS3.

” “We are embarking on a new paradigm in the gaming industry fuelled by advances in computer hardware, network speeds and the want of gamers to have more freedom,” said Richard Faria CEO of StreamMyGame. “We network the power of their main PC so it can be used to play high end games on other PCs and laptops around the home. I believe the demand for high resolutions will drive the sales of high end PC hardware”.

“We will release a Linux version in Q4 2007 which will enable PC games to be played on the PlayStation 3 and many other devices including DVD players, set top boxes, networked media devices and mobile phones,” he said. ” – more here

How about that for a revolution? I think it would be absolutely brilliant if they managed to put together such a community of multi-platformed gamers, especially due to the fact that my PS3 only currently has 6 games and about 30 demos, while the library of my PC games reaches a couple of hundred big (and a couple of thousand small) games.
Bring on the future, I’m ready for it!

Lucky bastard!

Check this out :

“A schoolboy had a 16th birthday to remember after a stripper ordered by his mother turned up at his drama class.
The boy’s mother apparently booked a “gorilla” to mark her son’s big day through an agency, but a stripper turned up instead.
The woman even asked her son’s teacher at Nottingham’s Arnold Hill School and Technology College to film the event so the family could see the boy’s reaction.
The stripper, who arrived halfway through the lesson, first walked the unnamed boy around the class on all fours like a dog.
She then spanked him 16 times – once for each year – to the sound of Britney Spears, before stripping down to her bra and knickers.
It was only when she asked the schoolboy to rub cream on her that the shocked teacher called a halt to the show.
The boy’s mother reportedly told the school the incident was the result of a booking error.”
– more here

Imagine it being your birthday, you sitting in your bench at school and, all of a sudden, this stripper walks in and starts “playing” with you. Besides that, you notice your teacher starting filming the whole thing. Like, WTF?
‘No birthday cake, no candles, no “Happy Birthday” song? Fine with me!’

Historical headbutt

Remember the football scandal at the World Cup finals in 2006 (in which Italy defeated France and won the Cup) started by the headbutt which Zinedine Zidane (“Zizou”) applied to Italy’s defender Marco Materazzi after an exchange of *kind* words?

It was Zizou’s retirement match but he went and got himself a red card from the referee. Everybody immediately started speculating as to what Inter’s defender could have said to incite such a response from one of the most respected and loved all-time football players. Some said Materazzi called him a terrorist, in reference to the Algerian origins of the frenchman, some claimed that insults to Zidane’s mother, sister, wife, or even whole family were spoken.

Some time ago, we found out the truth. (The dialogue is viewable in the link some lines lower!)

Well, I’ve found a “game” that lets you put the words in the two famous players’ mouths and recreate the fateful moment which is sure to remain in everyone’s memory for years (even decades) to come. Press here and “Have fun”!

Besides that game which seemed a lot of fun for me, here is another, easier one :
