But if people don't like hipsters... does that mean that they don't exist?
Nah, and I should know.
I've been hating hipsters for way longer than any of you guys.
Claiming to be into things before others. First sign of a hipster.

I'll be boring for yet another moment:Working with incompetents is bad enough, working with Seventh Day Adventist incompetents that have asinine conversations at lunch is even worse. One of them said that if evolution were true, why couldn't scientists just give us a video of it taking place. It took all my willpower to not jump over the table and beat her to death with my stalk of celery.
I'll be boring for yet another moment:
depending on the duration of one generation of whatever species you're observing, evolution can certainly happen in relatively short timespans and be witnessed by humans. You would probably need a very good microscope (scientific instrument, so a religious nutter would discount the video on that basis alone) to make it visible to the human eye and, since your standard overly religious person "doesn't have time" for actual science, you'd also need to speed the video up a fair bit. But you could definitely do it.
Actually it's been proven using fruit flies. Featured in a BBC Horizon documentary a few years ago iirc.
So the last 2 grad schools I was waiting on for responses just came in today.
It's official. It's fucking official.
I've been rejected from EVERY school I applied to. Every single one.
I know why, and there are 2 parameters. One is GPA (which I can do nothing about now) and the other one is the physics GRE (which I can retake). But honestly... what's the chance that retaking the physics GRE and getting a good score will allow me in on the second round? I have a decade of research experience to back me up. A DECADE. No-one else fucking has that. I FUCKING have that. But I guess that wasn't enough. So there's no fucking guarantee.
I'm so glad that I've made my parents, friends, and family so proud. I got a below 3.0 GPA at berkeley, I graduated 1.5 years late, I got a horrid score on the physics GRE and look at all the goddamned schools just fucking LINING up to accept me.
ALSO TOMORROW IS MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY. I realized that this morning. I feel so fucking happy to exist on this planet and to have gone around the sun one more fucking time.
The human cannonball killed yesterday when the stunt he was performing when wrong has been named as 23-year-old Matt Crunch.
But hey, maybe this article will help - it's Peter Thiel, but hey, I kinda' like the guy:
