Mass Extinction!


OK, so here it is. Actually the most terrifying thing I've ever heard of. And I mean it this time. Mass motherfucking extinction. Watch out for it.

The K-T event, or "Cretaceous–Tertiary extinction" event - is the most widely recognized occurrence of mass extinction in Earth's history. 75% of all species (all the god-damn Dinosaurs) on the planet were wiped out over the course of... well, a relatively short period of time. Most fossil records seem to point to some sort of rapid geological event, which hit Earth's "reset button" and left the Birds and Mammals to thrive in the new age.

My best bet is that it all happened because of some sort of crazy space rock, falling to Earth and completely fucking everyone up. There's a nicely placed 1.6km deep "smash hole" in the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, with Shocked Quartz in the rock bed. Could be the best clue. That's all I'm saying.

"Timepieces"


Clocks are cool. There's so many different kinds, and they're such an important part of everyday life. I love the idea of "craftsmanship" when it comes to reading the time. My favourite kinds of clocks are these^^ wall-mounted, simple, and easy-to-read classic looking ones, they're so classy and "functional". The kind that you'd see in an old train station - or in a hotel lobby, where they're in a series, with London, New York, etc on a nameplate above. Fuck yeah.


Also, watches. I seriously think "anything goes" when it comes to watches. I really want one of these, because its like... 2 things. A watch AND a calculator. If it EVER came in handy... like in an everyday situation, i'd be so pleased with myself for purchasing it. Calculator watches own.

Timepieces... such revolutionary technology design... the evolution of the clock would be an awesome, long book to read; Especially if there were millions of pictures to look at.

Time Lord

Imagine you WERE one of these... Do time lords have specific powers? What do they use them for? You'd probably ride some sort of "Chronolizard". Fuck. Imagine what the potential applications would be... You'd almost NEVER be late for a meeting!

Reading the fuckin' newspaper, man

I dunno about you, but for me, reading a newspaper, especially while eating lunch, is one of life's little pleasures. I really don't get those people who just sit there, eating, staring off into space. The newspaper is so damn interesting! So many cool little stories. I love it so much that I can't not read a newspaper while eating anymore.

Point is, lunch + newspaper = a really relaxing, "nice" time.
