TET: Summer Summed Up Sumptuously

[Ethel mermania]

If you are writing checks, boy #2 made dean's list.

Hey, congrats to him! I'll consider adding him to the "go out and get yourself some drugs" fund.

Crack is cheap, he needs a car.

Better get on that right quick, proud papa. Remember he decides what home you get put in.

Today's weather is melting me like a snowman in an oven.

That's the weather everyday.

Cars are expensive, not too mention the insurance.

Cars are expensive, not too mention the insurance.

Especially for newly qualified drivers.

I am screwed.

Definitely.

Boy #2 costs about an additional 1k a year for the ins.

That's a good deal of money.

In my opinion, and in a light-hearted way, the universe exists: it always existed in the form we are familiar with now, and any rumours that it has a beginning or ending are lies.

Heh, in Ireland ~€880 would be considered a steal being put on a parent's policy.

Sorry to hear that. Here it's typical. Kid gets into an accident though, look out.

That seems in the ballpark for 2018. Congrats on your son making the dean's list.
Oh, maybe start leaving brochures about the house for the old folks home you'd like. Tempus fugit.

Perhaps the higher rate of alcohol consumption in Ireland maybe to blame for that. Here's to your health! *downs drink*

Was about €1,500 for my brother if I remember correctly, but a part of that was an additional premium for being a male driver, which I believe is a policy not long for this world up there.

Was €6,200 a year for comprehensive while I was driving up there, would have shot down a good bit were I still an Irish driver by 26, though.

A universe, or a multiverse, is theorised. There is probably a fireworks of universes going in and out of existence, and the explosion for ours happened 13+ billion years ago.

I still cannot wrap my head around this. There has to be a beginning somewhere, even if there is going to be no end to this exploding chain of universes.

I suppose we may not know the answer for now.

You know what's really weird? The world is still here, despite humanity's best efforts.

If you live to see age 83 you will be 30,000 days old during that year. You can get your head around a number like that. If you live to be 114 years old you will be 1 million hours old that year, fat chance. So don't worry, 13+ billion years is something no one can really get their heads around. Just consider your own beginning and ending... on second thought, don't dwell on that either. Why waste time?

We aren't THAT big a deal to the rest of the universe. Humanity needs to get over itself.

Humanity is fairly important.

True, true.. I don't always think about that, mind you, but sometimes, it just hits you a little as you are watching your own hands and thought, "How am I here?"

The answer was usually "My Mom," but I was just wondering how. It's also fascinating how this exact set of people (your family, your friends, the people in this dear NS) is next to impossible to exist ever again.

We probably could have been blown up in Cold War, what with the tension and all, but common sense won that day (there were blackouts and dead telephone lines to important comm facilities, but the officers there always do a second check like "Where are the Russians on the radar?")

Humanity is fairly important.

We are on a small planet in this vast universe, but at the same time, that small planet is everything to us. I like to think it that way.

May the odds be ever in my favor.

Lucky for us the Cold War didn't kill us all.

Plus, no one wants to picture their parents doing that.

It's a scary thought. Another parallel universe already had that.

On another note: LOLCats apparently existed long before internet itself.
