And yeah I'm glad they removed those dumb sick things, I hated caring for them because it was so sloooow so I just left them lol

Yeah I remember one time (like way back in 2014-15, before the update) a villager moved in on top of a major pathway and then like the next day got sick so I had to deal w that on top of being mad about them moving on top of the path lol

Well I taught something new today. I taught someone about the practical use of leeches in the medical field, and most koalas having chlamydia.

There's several animal facts that I know that I feel are common knowledge buuut- others have never even heard rumors about them. I'm just weird.

Today I learned that someone was able to "hack" into a phone using a toy whistle from a Cap'n Crunch cereal box. Basically the frequency emitted by the whistle was the same frequency used by the phone line when making a new call. This allowed access to free long-distance phone calls.

Not surprised. Twice since I've been in college we've had power outages in the residence halls because a squirrel tampered with a transformer and caused it to combust. It's a pain especially when the power is out for 5-6 hours and my refrigerator starts to defrost (all the ice in the freezer melts and gets all over everything). In a way I feel bad for the squirrel though, they wouldn't know any better anyways lol

The Aap Sahaee Hoa mantra translated into English means:

"The Lord Himself has become my protector. The Truest of the True has taken care of me. God, God, God. The Lord Himself has become my refuge. True is the support of the True Lord."
