  • Screw you, magic eight ball.

    So I was bored and thinking about hearing back about FPOPS tomorrow (freaky-fast-turnaround-WHAT) and was like, "Oh, it'd be really funny to ask the magic eight ball which one I'll get." And this is what happened.

    Question 1: Will I get into FUP?
    Magic Eight Ball: Outlook not so good.

    Q 2: Come on, I have to get into FUP.
    MEB: My sources say no.

    Q 3: Are you sure?
    MEB: Maybe.

    Q 4: Stop fucking with me, magic 8 ball.
    MEB: No way!

    That thing has a sadistic sense of humor for a computer generated child's plaything.

    (You know what would be great? To run a statistical analysis of how accurately the magic eight ball predicts the outcome of events. MIT blog potential? Just sayin'.)

    So I'm pretty sure I met you during CPW at meet the bloggers, but we had like a 2 second conversation so it's more than likely I'm a) wrong, or b) you don't remember.


    Anyways, I'm hoping for FUP too (well DBCS was my first choice, but either would be awesome). Good luck with it.

    actually, one of the Smithsonian spinoffs already ran an article on this--it's in Muse magazine, and I remember reading it maybe 7 years ago? The front cover of the magazine has a kid with a fortune cookie, and I remember it being funny...

    @ Tamara- Yeah, I totally remember meeting you because it was like, oh, I know you from the blogs... haha. It's always a little weird meeting people you know online in real life for the first time.

    @Ju - Damn Smithsonian spinoff.
