1. has anyone here mastered lucid dreaming to the point that they can pretty much do it every time they sleep? if so, how long did it take you to get this far and what method did you use to induce the lucid dreams?
2. does anyone else here have chronic insomnia (as in its lasted over a year; this isn't a technical definition, just the definition im using for the sake of this question)? if you do, what medications have you found to work?
I've tried trazodone, some random one i dont remember the name of, and ambien/zolpidem and none of them have worked.

Hello, strange question but I'll ask: I got a bruise after getting blood drawn on my left arm last Saturday, the thing is, now, some 5 days later, the bruising seems to be getting BIGGER rather than healing. I'll take a pic tomorrow to show what I mean..but all the sites I am finding online say that icing the site will reduce swelling, but it doesn't seem to be the case..
Hmm, any suggestions?

Low moral character
Somebody told me they failed a test and I replied, "Tough luck, man." Then they shot me some glare like I just insulted them.
Is saying "tough luck" an insult? I always thought it was a genuine reply, unless it was said with a sarcastic tone.

Which is kinda sucky 'cause I don't really go in forPlasmid said:
=) =] etc. but somehow a little blue laughing guy is actually kinda a tension-breaker or humor-emphasizer.Oh, and >.< etc is so ridiculous I'm surprised I even managed to type it.
Oh, also I've never knowingly typed the letters "lol" in succession. So I'm a grouch I guess. Bring back the smilies!

I wouldn't say it to insult someone, but... My personal favorite when it comes to exams: "That's rough, (man, dude, yo, whatever)." Or "that's harsh."thespot84 said:
For some reason "tough luck" I would only say to a friend or family member who I know wouldn't be overly hurt by it. It seems kinda indifferent and apathetic.
For someone who's completely stupid when it comes to tech-side computer stuff, what's the best way to determine RAM/memory usage for certain websites and web applications?
I'm guessing that the task manager performance charting is the way to go, but I don't know what numbers to look at
Any help would be very much appreciated

Here's how you could do it if you want to be sooper dooper precise, since I'm not sure what purpose this is for.michaelsrevenge said:
Set your home page to about:blank, and then start a new session. Open up the process manager. Find your browser, the Memory column will tell you how much ram it is using (Commit size is the highest it has used for that session and has saved for it untill it needs to be freed; not what you're looking for.) Take that number from there.
Now set the home page to whatever site you want to test. Start a new session and let it sit there for a little bit. Then check the Memory usage again and subtract the blank memory usage from the number you are looking at now. I'm guessing it will be negligible depending on what you're looking at though.

There's been something bothering me about a particular scene in The Dark Knight. When Joker talks about how if he were to say that "a gangbanger will die tomorrow, or a busload of children will explode, nobody panics. But say one little Mayor will die," etc. I never got what he was trying to say there. Can someone fill me in?

His point was that we all know that the former things will happen. Gangbangers will die, thousands of people will die in car accidents, etc. But if you announce beforehand that one specific well known person will die, suddenly people go nuts.Professor Beef said:

Maybe its the way I read it but I would consider it an insult. Because it makes me feel like the person saying it is really trying to say " stop your whining." Or like it sounds something a parent would say to their kid when they dont like new game " tough luck, you have to play it"

QUESTION:
Does it seem that forums users are changing?
Specifically: It seems that lately there have been posters in this and other forums who more and more have a 'gimmick'. I am sure we have seen the one in here who goes as gruntilda and rhymes stuff, also , summary man doing his schtick. Personally I think its silly and useless, but not to the point of ignoring them. Is this a new trend?
I mean, I never saw that before... its like if Constanza in here only would say things in "Constanza" mode or something.
Is this happening because a new generation was born with the internet and chat rooms, etc? Is this like dress-up?
Or am I imagining things and the internet has always had these kind of people?
On a related question:
How many of you create personas in the internet instead of just speaking how they would in real life?
In my case, I think I troll more irl (deadpan sarcasm) than in the internet, I always act like myself no matter what level of anonymity I have. Wonder what makes us different.
Guess who's bored at work today!

Well, If this is in response to me in the Xiaxue thread, you somehow seriously misread what I was responding to. I was summarizing for another poster who clearly didn't know what I was talking about. Not as a joke character.malingenie said:

I need to take Spanish II in the summer and I'll graduate. Only problem is that I haven't taken Spanish I in 3 years. I may re-take Spanish I again that's from May 16-June 24, and then Spanish II June 27-August 5.
My question is financial aid has paid for my classes since I've been going to USF. Would financial aid pay for Spanish I, even though I've taken the course before at the campus?
Also, has anyone taken an online language class at school before? I know it'd be harder, but I'm curious if the tests are online, and I might be able to Google my way through.

If I'm an insanely huge fan of Daft Punk and I want to listen to another group/dj thats a lot like them, who should I check out?
I've heard Deadmau5 and its ok but its not quite as good.

I just asked this in the "hardest movie scenes to watch" topic, but this is driving me insane so I figure I'll ask here as well.
What movie is this: There was a scene, I believe at the end of a movie, where a dog licks cum off a kid's pants and then licks the kid's mom on the lips. I think it was a comedy but I really have no idea.
I vaguely recall the scene, but my girlfriend recently asked me what movie it was that this happened and since then we've been trying to figure it out. I have tried searching but as you can imagine, typing "dog licks cum and licks mom" or any other variation thereof returns some interesting results. Thanks!

What's the better argument: Were at the technological level we're at now because of the Cold War, OR The Cold War was just something that was happening while we would've made the exact same leaps regardless.

Is the Seinfeld reunion show, that happened in Curb Your Enthusiasm, considered canon in the Seinfeld universe?

Edit: I haven't seen the episodes, did they make an actual Seinfeld episode in Curb?
