I opened this thread because I think this thread will allow people to justify their everyday actions.

Are you curious or are you just bored?

I guess my actions can best be explained by what I learned in second grade in order to divide by fractions:

"Nevermind the reason why, just invert and multiply"

I'm just glad I'm not having one of those days with zero in my denominator?

You are daft!

If someone asks you "where have you been just now?"

Your answer is - "What? I've just been here?"

Think man!! Think!

So, why did you do what you just did?

There was a sudden expansion of matter. As it rushed outward, and cooled, everything did what it was supposed to: be. Ultimately, it's all going back together into a dense knot of perfectly arranged everything, and, whether I know it or not, everything I do is a part of that and there's nothing I can do to stop it.
When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

Oh, and the thing before that, well that was because it was lunch time.

Because solving problems is more interesting to me than playing nice-nice with people who don't share information.

Because in my heart I knew it'd be smarter to do the comp sci work rather than go with them to the Village.

These people are Americans. Don't expect anything meaningful or... uh... normalcy...
