Watching Heroes on BBC2: "A bit sad" Watching Heroes on BBC2 and Wishing You Had Some of Those Powers: Fairly Sad Watching Heroes on BBC2 and Actively Fantasising About Having Sylar's Power: Welcome to Sad-Town Watching Heroes on BBC2 and Actively Fantasising About Having Sylar's Power... Because then I would be able to solve this goddamned 4x4x4 Rubiks Cube: .... Is when I realised I had a problem Watching Heroes on BBC2 and Actively Fantasising About Having Sylar's Power... Because then I would be able to solve this goddamned 4x4x4 Rubiks Cube - Meanwhile my younger brother and his 19 year old slattern-harpy friends have a party downstairs: I am officially disqualified from the human race OK, I may 6 billion on the Geek Scale right now. But they've been going for two days and they're singing along rowdily to pop-indie tracks. They didn't go to bed till 4am, and now they've been up since 9. I need sleep. I need a tidy kitchen. I need to solve this FUCKING STUPID CUBE THEY GOT ME FOR CHRISTMAS!!!! *bursts into tears*
I've heard 'Heroes' is canny If that's the case I reckon you can add 3 billion cool points to your total ...Oh and shunning pop-indie singalongs and wanting a tidy kitchen gets you points aswell I say. Human race needs more like you, sir
Yes... But don't you see? Solving this cube is like catching flies in chopsticks.... If I can do it, I can do anything. I think I might go find a quite park in town tomorrow and spend the day with it. I completed one side, and have made some progress. I'm not obsessive
I gave one of those to my daughter and she solved in about 30 mins. I said, "just give it back man, thats not how you do it anyway"..( I was embarassed ) I had the thing for years and never did figure it out..
Some people have the right shaped minds for it, my older brother is the same with chess, he can think about 6 moves ahead. I have to switch my main brain off or I can't concentrate on it properly. I'm the only person I know who uses "intuition" to get round logic puzzles I find if I just think about the end result I want without confusing myself with the in between moves my hands will do the hard work for me. If I try and think about it to much I just get confused halfway through and make a mistake. I've done the central bits, but two of them need to be opposite one another on the cube rather than next-to, so I'm going to have to go back to square one. But I THINK I know how I can do it now
heroes is really fun. people are losing interest because the whole time travel thing is fucking with their heads and they apparently can't figure out what the hell is going on. i swear, some people have the attention span of fruit flies.
The trick with time travel in TV is to just ignore plot inconsistencies and appreciate how cool it is. It drives me mad when people can swallow indestructible teenagers, people with telekinesis, fire-throwers, but won't swallow minor plot difficulties resulting from time travel. Pfft!
