Thread of Nonsensical Ramblings

[RonR18]

This thread is for the kind of random "electronic waste" that is normally spewed out in the confession thread, that has nothing to do with confessions. I thought that by giving off-topic posters an alternate venue for the rambling thoughts they feel compelled to publicly blurt out, they may stop ruining the confession thread.



And this way, only people who enjoy skimming past random, boring posts will be exposed to them. So, if you've got some miscellaneous thoughts, videos, pictures, etc., that you want to get off your mind... this is the appropriate thread to do it in.

Wow!,...just look at the size of that salmon, will ya..?


would that be a chub salmon?

or a chubby salmon..?

Hi Ron

sorry I can't stay on right now...gotta run

Hi back Johan

Congratulations for being the first contributor to this thread, as you win a hand job.

As for that salmon, it looks more mad than chub/chubby, as it's little salmon face is squinched up to the point it resembles the head of a snapping turtle.

That's one of the most clever gifs I've ever seen, raven, I kid you not. Whoever thought that up is a lot smarter than I'll ever be.

No idea who created it, I found it online. I thought it was a bit random and slightly awesome.

It's too bad the U.S. doesn't have any republican presidential candidates as clever as that artist. At first I thought the text captions should be the other way around, butt then I realized that being inebriated makes the "old" lady see herself as young again.

I wonder if there are ANY JUBbers who know instantly what I'm referring to?

When I was a kid, I was a lot younger than I am now, because children under 17 are not over 18 yet.

When I was a kid, I wasn't as tall as I am now.

That's easy... a Scottish comic strip called, "The Broons." How could any comic aficionado not know that?

Seriously? You knew it without checking? I thought that 'The Broons' and 'Oor Wullie' were virtually unknown outside Scotland, and certainly not in [STRIKE]Uranus[/STRIKE] U.S.A. / Canada (ASSuming that's where you're from, butt I could be wrong)

OK, here's another one....

Does anyone know if there's a specific name for this mathematical pattern?

P.S.

If you replace '1' with every successive prime number from '5' onwards i.e. 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, etc. and follow the pattern, then you'll get every number that exists, represented in a series of numerical triangles.

EDIT: I forgot about the squares of the prime numbers (25, 49, 121, 169, etc.)

EDIT: And the cubes. And the multiples of two primes (35, 55, 65, 77, etc.)

I give up. *scraps patent*

As soon as close to seven months the memory discipline out from the Indy Colts, Tony adamowicz Dungy claimed bon voyage for your team together with the location she had to have to Fantastic Tank wining. Even in fact these, who actually important the nation's golf group title into 2009, doesn't have had the oppertunity to be able to reverberate, Downtown indianapolis ceiling fans never ever gone notions at the barely instructor that could very well dispatch.Dungy's employment applying the NFL entered 1977, using being a defensive back once again to get that Games for a couple numerous a suitable time of year around Bay Area bought.

Located in 1980 your guy flipped in order to instructing, turning into the exact resistive shells guru available for alma mater Student from Mn. He promptly came back to help you high quality sacked plus the Pittsburgh steelers, being a new storage supports train then insulating planner till the time a real try out Would likely within 1989. Following a good solid three-year stint utilizing the Minnesota Vikings, as before for example a uptight director, Dungy at last turned up the size of his initially mind-training endeavor with the Tampa bay Gulf Buccaneers inside of 1996.Despite the presence of their unique status kind of like a underneath stellar squad, Dungy moved this Bucs all round of The late nineties merely by accompanying 2nd within NFC.

Nonetheless in spite of their boost starting from near the twelve inches of them, Dungy never was able to take Tampa bay Sea in direction of the Excellent Dish. Team relief dismissed the boy for the monthly connected with february 15, 2006.Unfortunately Polk Bay's lowering came to be Indianapolis' benefit from. Just actions nights soon after getting discharge using the Bucs, often the Indianapolis Colts retain Dungy for individuals like your thoughts tutor across the calendar month concerning march Twenty-two, 2006. Five exceptional months soon after, Dungy too Colts obligatory Indiana enthusiasts in their primarily and simply Superbly Serving triumph.

Though it weren't the idea lengthy-looked to champion whom closed down their own multitude which will global recognition within paper hearts for Colts users it has been the guy themself who actually gained them much more than.Dungy's character remains commemorated in media. A earnest evangelical Zola, a education and learning form returned the man's personalized worth though trainers driven through the use of exasperate and then violence, Dungy contributed such as a lecturer who stayed quell in quite possibly the most really hard regarding diseases.

Hehe, I cheated on the comic strip, butt google was of no use for your mathematical pattern.

Neither was I, because I was shorter than I am now, but I have grown taller since then.

When I was a kid, I can't remember a single time I was electrocuted. Butt today, everything metal I touch is like a stun gun, sending bolts of electricity through my fingers. All because of the new sweat shirt and thermal underwear Santa brought me. Not a good time to install my new ram chip.

Well your post is kind of old, but I'll solve it anyways. But I'm sure my explanation is gonna be stupid.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to find the next sequence, but I'll attempt it anyways. But there are actually different patterns in the triangle.
1)The one that I saw first was that the first sequence determines the the differences between the numbers in the next sequence.

Ex: 1 is the difference between 2 and 3. 2 is the difference between 4 and 6, 3 is the difference between 6 and 9. 4 is the difference between 8 and 12. 6 is the difference between 12 and 18. 9 is the difference between 18 and 27. And so on.

2) The first numbers in each sequence are powers of 2.
3) The second numbers in each sequence are 3 x the powers of 2.
EX: 3x2, 3x4, 3x8, 3x16, so on.
Well actually, that's how all the rest of the numbers are. Edit: Actually, I don't think that's how the rest of the numbers are. But whatever, too lazy to figure out the other patterns

So the next sequence of numbers would be:
128 192 288 432 648 972 1458 2187

To find this, I found the next power of 2 to get the first number. Then used the first pattern I described to find the next numbers.
Maybe I'm right?

Sorry all, more nonsensical ramblings about this triangle.

I overthought it..by a lot. Multiply the numbers in each sequence by two to get the corresponding numbers in the next. IE: Multiply the first number by two to get the first number in the next sequence. Multiply the second number by two to get the second number in the next sequence. Multiply the third number to get the third number in the next sequence. To get the last number, add the numbers on the right end of the current and previous sequences.

K I'm done. I promise.

Lol, you've actually thought about it a completely different way than I ever did, focusing on the bottom numbers and then extrapolating divisions of them with regard to the number above. And would you believe that I NEVER relaised that the bottom right number equalled the sum of the numbers to its left and above it? All those times looking at it and I never caught that.

What I focused on was the premise of starting with '1' alone at the top, and then putting '2' and '3' down below it, and then continuing to put down numbers where the double of it went lower left and the triple of it went lower right. I found out that the triple of one number was always the same as the double of its neighbour (because 2x3 is the same as 3x2). So multiples of 2 and 4 and 8 fall down the left, multiples of 3 and 9 fall down the right, and multiples of 6 fall down the centre.

And then I realised the only numbers MISSING were 5 and 7. So I made triangles for them too. In fact, the only numbers missing were the prime numbers. 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23 etc. etc.

The first number that couldn't be put down anywhere was 25. Because whereas 1x1=1, 5x5=25. So I put it above the 5 triangle. Keep on going and you start to create an inverted triangle above each triangle for its square number. The same with 49 for 7, 121 for 11, etc. etc.

But then there comes another problem - 35. It's 5x7 and 7x5 and so belongs in both triangles but there's no place for it. The same with 55 and 65 (5x11 and 5x13). And then when you reach 125 (5x5x5) it has to be put somewhere else too.

It gets progressively more and more complicated and impossible to place numbers down within the triangles, especially those involving complex muliples of 5 and 7 and 11.

P.S....

I was really more into this 10 years ago than I am now. I've largely lost interest. But back then I used to try to type out as many numbers as I could on Microsoft Excel, and I colour-coded them as well 5=red, 7-green, 11-blue, 13-yellow, 17=magenta, 19=cyan, 23 onwards darker shades of colours, 100 onwards grey of differing shades.

I didn't realise it at the time, but now, looking back on it, it's pretty obvious that all of this behaviour of mine was indicative of Asperger's. So there it is.
