I like cuddles.
When I was in year 7/8 I knew lots of trivia about natural sciences, as one does from reading. My science/biology teacher took a friend and me aside at the end of one lesson and said something like "You think you're good scientists because you know lots of facts. You're really not good scientists at all."

He was right. I got better.

For some reason, the only really interesting part of this post to me is the subject line. The rest seems played out.

Just that it seems to have been said over and over again and carried on far too much by you, I suppose.

Which is kind of funny, 'cause normally the cuddles thing would be thought to be more played out than that. That isn't the case with you, though. d:

Not everyone is motivated by empirical reason!

How did you get onto this subject with this fellow may I ask?

Choosing chemistry entails that motivation, even if only sandboxed.

I'll send you an earlier conversation.
