Interesting Experiences with Chocolate

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So. On a whim, I tried something a bit odd yesterday. It was a chocolate peanut butter cup dipped in Hummus.

It was probably about as weird as it sounds.

It wasn’t bad per say, just weird. I would not necessarily recommend it, except for giving more stories.

Happy Sunday!

Why Lightbulb Moments Make Cents

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

I was talking with some friends about things making sense and cents. And we came to the realization that things that make sense when the light is on also make cents, because the use of electricity makes cents for the electric company.

So, thus, I think that that’s probably where the whole “Lightbulb Moment” for when things make sense/cents comes from.

What do you think?

Book Osmosis

Hiya, Fluffsters!

A friend posed an interesting question to me…

Why do we think exclusively about learning from osmosis?

Because, seriously… I know more than most textbooks. Just not necessarily about that specific topic the books is talking about.

For example, fantasy worlds. I know a LOT more about theoretical constructs of magical forms than I do of anything related to biology, for example. So why don’t the textbooks remove some of my fantasy knowledge (which they do not have) and replace it with some of their knowledge of their subject?

OR…. IS THAT WHY OSMOSIS DOESN’T WORK? Is it maybe because the rules of osmosis look at total knowledge, and decide that the amount of knowledge makes up for it? So, I know more about the book than some things, the book knows more than I do about other things, so net we’re balanced?!

Any thoughts?

Hiya, fluffsters!

Today’s Fluff is a link to College Humor. So, be careful– you might spend a lot more time than you anticipate.

But anyways. They put together a really cool set of gifs that are fun. Some of which are impossible. You should check them out.

Happy Tuesday!

Sorcery and Cecelia

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

Today, I reread a friendly book: “Sorcery and Cecelia” by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer.

It is a charming book, and probably about as close to a “manners” style book as I’m likely to recommend. Because, it really is more of a “period piece” than a plot-driven book… sort of. Except that it still definitely has a plot. Oh, and the time period it’s a “period piece” of is early 19th century, in a setting where there’s magic.

One of the really fun things about it is that the two authors wrote the book in the style of a game. They wrote letters back and forth to each other, and thus created the plot.

It is not necessarily the most plot-driven of all of Wrede’s works, but it is still quite amusing, and I recommend it.

Happy Tuesday!

Signs you MIGHT be turning Nocturnal (part 1)

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters!

So. I came up with a brief list of a few signs that you might be turning nocturnal.

1) You spend more hours asleep during 6:00am-6:00pm than during 6:00pm-6:00am. This is fairly…obvious. If you’re doing this, you might be joining the elite night-time club.

2) You are a college (or post college) student. This one is almost nonoptional. Unless you’re weird. I don’t know how non-nocturnal college students do it. They’re weird.

3) You’re turning into a vampire. Nocturnality comes with the territory. Tough, get used to it.

4) You live veeery far North, and it’s winter. Ok, so it’s technically spring now. But my point still stands. If the vast majority of your “days” are spent at night-time geographically speaking, you might be turning nocturnal.

There you go! I hope this helps.

Have a great week!

The Greedo Conspiracy

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters!

So, I found out something a couple of days ago. Apparently, there’s a recently discovered type of Catfish. And it’s been named after the Star Wars character Greedo, because of similarities of appearances.

Of course, now I’m wondering… What if this is all some sort of plot with Star Wars to make science more interesting? So, suppose that scientists actually found this type of catfish decades ago, and George Lucas based Greedo on the fish. And then the scientists are only now revealing the existence of the fish, so that people are a) more interested in the discovery because it looks like a Star Wars character, and 2) make it less likely anybody would discover the conspiracy?

I blame the rainbows. They’re devious like that. But I’m onto your tricks! Your sith mind tricks won’t work on me, rainbows!

Let me get this straight… rainbows are sith now?

Well, do you have proof that they aren’t?

Anyways, Fluffsters, have a good day. Don’t eaten by a catfish, a space alien, or a rainbow, ok?

Dogs annoying cats with friendship

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

I’m not sure if you’ve seen this one yet or not, but it’s worth it. (Obviously. Or I wouldn’t be sharing it with you…)

It’s a video compilation of dogs annoying cats with friendship.

Because dogs are usually friendly. And cats usually aren’t.

So, enjoy!
