Thorn Wilde Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Just as an FYI... I'm noticing that I'm kind of anxious and irritable today. So please, please, please let me know if I get obnoxious so I can adjust accordingly. Cause I worry that my fingers may be quicker than my brain today. 4 Link to comment

When I get like that, I like to think of it as a battle against my brain. That's not the same as weakness, because if you weren't fighting you wouldn't feel that way at all.

Backwoods Boy Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 3 hours ago, Mikiesboy said: impetus noun | IM-puh-tus Definition 1 a : a driving force : impulse b : incentive, stimulus c : stimulation or encouragement resulting in increased activity 2 : the property possessed by a moving body in virtue of its mass and its motion — used of bodies moving suddenly or violently to indicate the origin and intensity of the motion You already have plenty of incentive to learn the origin of impetus, so we won't force the point. Impetus comes from Latin, where it means "attack or assault"; the verb impetere was formed by combining the prefix in- with petere, meaning "to go to or seek." Petere also gives us other words suggesting a forceful urging or momentum, such as appetite, perpetual, and centripetal. Impetus describes the kind of force that encourages an action ("the impetus behind the project") or the momentum of an action already begun ("the meetings only gave impetus to the rumors of a merger"). I don't have any impetus to go outside today, as we are having yet another late winter storm. Instead, I am going to sequester myself inside the house. 2 3 Link to comment

They go off ar a little place across the street, so it’s not as if they don’t know it’s happening, and yet, the alarm just blares on and on.... 1 hour ago, Mikiesboy said: oh god i hate them. people with them should be forced to wear some electrical notification.. and be given a nice Zap everytime the damn alarm goes off 1 hour ago, Reader1810 said: Yes! And some of the cars they end up on - totally pretentious owners, no doubt. A few years back, the neighbor kid had a ten-dollar car with a five-thousand-dollar stereo system protected by a car alarm that went off every time a mouse farted, which was usually in the middle of the night. And in the end, the alarms have little value, mostly because no one pays attention to them or because the perp circumvents them. I truly believe that if a cost/benefit analysis were to be done on car alarms, including human misery in the "cost" factor, car alarms would be the most worthless thing every invented. Next to garbage disposals. I better stop. I haven't had breakfast yet. 2 2 Link to comment
