I love being honored on the blog. It makes me feel, it makes me feel...happy of myself! P.S. Also, my answer to the question that wasn't asked: My life would be an 80s R&B/funk music video. Cameo by Rick Astley.

--Whatever Wednesday recap by Ambassador Dan!

Apparently, this is an allusion to this youtube video:

PS. Where's the question for the week? Oh well, here's my answer, you'll have to come up with the question:

  If we were built like that, I think that we would have a very different relationship with the climate. Water would become more than the juice in our cells and sinews, but the capacity to think and function would depend on how viscous and drenched we were. Arid areas would become the trailer parks, the marsh the haven for academe. I would hope that this evolution would bring people closer together, but I almost fear that we would segregate ourselves into specialized networks that discriminate other constructs more than the color of our skins. But damn, we would look so cool at night!

Question: What widely accepted ideas are we later going to find out were dead wrong? Dead wrong like when people (largely due to effective PR by tobacco companies) thought that cigarettes were healthy. Or when people thought the earth was flat.

Domi: I bet you were are going to find that homosexuality is entirely psychological and not biological as we expect.

Dan: I think we'll be dead wrong about...

-Cellphones. They actually cause cancer. Yeah. Hooray for the government promoting business!

-Aliens. I bet we'll find out that aliens have been landing on earth for generations. Also, they're bacteria.

-Dark Matter. Someone will come up with grey matter and realize that calling something dark matter to fill in the shit-this-fucks-up-our-calculations-so-let's-call-it-a-thing. Get it? Grey matter? Hilarious.

-Vibrams. Having a shoe that is really just rubber on your foot doesn't make you run better, faster, or anything- it just convinces people to run like idiots for 50 miles and break their knees. Good work, corporations.

-Gender. Just...because.

-Torture. It's not unethical, it's just a business practice practiced by oppressive government. Someone will come up with regulations and then find a way to assess it.

Kristi: Despite how much I love milk, "you need to drink three glasses a day" may turn out to be Dairy Association propaganda. I still can't figure out why scandinavians and africans are really tall but central and south americans are short....somebody said heat body dispersion or something but why are africans so tall then? It's pretty freakin hot in central america and I am always the tallest one in the room. Anthropology help me!
