(no subject)

Six of us saw Twilight on Sunday night. It wasn't as bad as I'd hoped it would be. :( The characterization is still hilariously bad, but apparently the screenwriter edited some of the antifeminist attitudes out. That's probably a good thing, and this may be one of those rare times when the movie is better than the book. GLITTERY MONSTERS! How can that level of epic fail not be entertaining? 4SRS.

In the quest for self-knowledge, I have figured out that I have thoughts about things other people have feelings and beliefs about. Feelings for most people are very definite, almost binary. They must rarely take three or four feelings and experience them all together. In fact it's so rare that they have words like 'ambivalent' just to express that they feel more than one way, because apparently that's abnormal. Which I just figured out. :\

Tell me of your feelings, flist. How many do you generally have on x subject? In t amount of time will your feelings change by y amount? Let's graph this out so that I can get a handle on it. Screw XKCD, I will use math to figure this out.

Hmm. Even when I'm sure of a conclusion, I'll still have different stuff going on with that decision a lot of the time. And being sure is pretty rare for me. I've pretty much got a spectrum that goes from 'I have no idea' to 'until I have different evidence'. You are unlike me, but I'll have to come back and think some more on this paradigm to account for you in my model. Thanks for the input.

I don't have $50, and your wife is scary. But sometime when you're in the mood for an onscreen romance novel (with vampires) written by a sixteen year old Mormon girl, you should check it out. Pretty and amusing, but still really bad for your brain. :)
