I hate how I’m not very good at explaining things. Basically we’re doing this group project on pneumatics, and we have to make a pick–and–place machine. I can honestly say that I know exactly how this thing has to work. I’ve figured out the little details: what the dimensions need to be, how the seals work, what the dimensions for the seals need to be, etc. The rest of my...

I would try to recreate the conversation, but a) it’s NSFW, and b) laughter is hard to suppress when the people next to you are talking about anime porn, so a lot of it would just be snickers and “BAHAHAHAHAHA”. I should go down to the computer labs and get some Pro|E done.

I can almost fully agree with what the review says about the hf2, since I’ve been using them for two months now. Yes, they sound fantastic.

I was creating a new account just now, and was trying to come up with a new user name. It took 15 minutes, because I was typing out potential names in various forms — lower case and CamelCase — and in different fonts — Helvetica, Frutiger, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, and Monaco — to see which one looks best overall.
