    notastarvinartist:

    Was inspired to write one of these hehe.

    1. They rather hold their bulky camera, than hold hands with you.
    2. On a romantic date, you’ll watch the sun go down and think “Wow this is gorgeous” and they’ll go “mirror lock, tripod, and stop down f/8 at 1/125.”
    3. You’ll never…

  2. Kid Gets Copy of Skyrim Stolen Out of Hands 5 Feet Outside of Gamestop

    “Young man… I just hope one day you’ll do something equally nice for someone.”

    iheartchaos:

    I just got back from the midnight release of the game, Skyrim. There was a 13 year old boy there. He walked out of the store with his fresh copy and, about 5 feet out the door, some shit-eating douchebag swiped it right out of his hands and ran with it. No one tried to stop him and I was too far away to do anything about it.

  6. Yield Thought: I swapped my MacBook for an iPad+Linode

    yieldthought:

    On September 19th, I said goodbye to my trusty MacBook Pro and started developing exclusively on an iPad + Linode 512. This is the surprising story of a month spent working in the cloud.

  7. So Oxytocin is the reason for why we empathize with other people, creatures and ideas? Interesting. This is a good video to share to your friends and families regarding the importance of being social to others. The more you interact with people positively (doesn’t need to be in person), the more you become happier (more release of oxytocin) and you tend to look brightly into the future. So don’t forget to SMILE (and mean it) everyday :-)
