Antibiotics

This post only applies to people who believe in evolution, and if you don't believe in evolution than I have some penicillin you might like to buy.

As long as we use the current class of antibiotics to cure disease, then the only survival option for bacteria is to evolve or acquire resistance to the antibiotics that we throw at them. This is because antibiotics kill all bacteria, not just the ones that hurt us. if we can make something that specifically targets bacteria that are harming us, then we open the option for them to evolve to be harmless. Yeah, that is a nearly impossible task, but it is nice to think about.

Alternate lifestyle

This one goes out to all the men who believe in infinite alternate universes:
For every universe in which you get the girl, there are just as many where you are the girl. Scantily clad female versions of yourself should be enough to keep any man in their own reality.

Holliday Junctions

Am I judgmental for immediately disliking partial-Holliday Junctions because they are called partial-HJs in the scientific literature, or am I the most immature person to ever understand what a partial-Holliday Junction is?

Funny

Online humor is potentially the least expensive commodity. No one with the internet should ever pay for a laugh, and if you have a good source of humor and you want to make money from it, then you had better have a good business model.

Automatic

As more and more appliances in bathrooms become automatic, bathrooms become creepier and creepier. I was just minding my own business in the stall of an otherwise empty bathroom, and the paper towel dispenser next to the sink decides that I might then need a paper towel. I have also been in bathrooms when a toilette flushes of its own accord. Eventually all bathroom appliances will be networked so that they can alert staff when they are dirty, out of paper towels, etc. Then they will really start working together against us.

Reenactments

Our country is at war; shouldn't we be doing peace reenactments?

Fame

Trying to be famous is like trying to win the lottery: you only marginally improve your chances, and you look really silly unless you succeed.
