Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

On Saturday I went to the mall with two of my friends. I had two weird experiences. 

1#. I was in a store called Spencers. And I was looking at the shirts with with my friend...when this kid who was clearly older than us asked.."How old are you?" To that I responded in a weirded-out voice "Uuuuh. Twelve. Why." AND THEN....he askes.."Can you buy something for me?" I didn't even have ten dollars. So I said no...but it was still weird.

2#My two friends, sister and I were heading back to the food court. I was walking a bit faster than everyone, and my friend called me to slow down (I'll use my name on here) "Reuby wait up!".....but then...these three guys behind us started yelling "Yeah Reuby. Wait up Reuby..REUBY!" It was the weirdest thing...

Never underestimate the power of the educated guess. It works wonders on Biology tests!

Ahh yes. We have had the exact same type of instance we believe you are describing. Saved us from countless 'Fs' this year, especially when we had to know what a microtubule is.

 

Heres a biology-related random thought for you:

Prokaryotic cells do not have nuclei (or nucleuses? or nuclueses? or nueclie? anyways, the plural of nucleus.), but instead, prokaryotes have something similar but smaller and more poorly organized called a 'nucleiod.' Also, most plant cells don't have flagellum. Also, there are two types of endoplasmic reticulum.

 

Congratulations if you know what any of the things are. Means you either:

a) Have taken Honors Bio 9

or

b) Read insane amounts of random things about cells.

Or c) you were in my non-honers 7th grade science class. There's the smooth ER and the rough ER. And for the eukaryotic cells, inside the nucleus, [sometimes?] there's the nucleolus.

Hmm, true. Every school teaches different things at different times.

Why can't everyone just shut up and the world could be quiet for just one day??

Is that really too much to ask??
