Friday and today's Burrisisms:
Friday: [he's wearing purple!]
"Purple is black in a good mood."
"They [the puns for our brain fuction memorization sheet] get worse. I blame myself. And society."
"This site may keep you amused... for minutes even."
"Have you ever been stargazing and you see a star at the corner of your eye so you turn and look and WHERE DID IT GO?! ...you are not a freak, and the stars are not conspiring against you."
[puts up an optical illusion] "See the concentric circles? No? You see only spirals, right? Well, let me show you..." [hums the Jeopardy theme as he traces the circles] "Wait, gotta do it again, prove that it's right..." [hums the Jeopardy theme again]
"I gotta take this off, or some people are gonna trance on me."
---
"So why don't we usually see blind spots in everyday life, floating around on our eyeballs? You go to kiss a date and their head keeps appearing and disappearing... 'STOP DOING THAT! [strangle] I'm under enough stress as it is!'"
He loves the Ikea lamp commercial. "Many of you have feelings for the lamp. You are CRAZY."
Cool note: people, is asked to estimate the length of a 5$ or a 20$, and the reward is the money, will think the $20 is longer.
$5 = average estimate of 166 mm (it's 157 mm)
$20 = average estimate of 201 mm (it's also 157 mm)
Weird, no?
