Wikipedia Edits of the Day: EU's Seven Dwarves -Brexit, Irexit, Nexit, Grexit, and Frexit

, ,

According to Wikipedia:

  1. "Irexit is a common name for a hypothetical withdrawal of the Republic of Ireland from the European Union. See also: Brexit, Frexit, Nexit, and Grexit."
  2. "A pizza party is a social gathering at which pizza is served.... Typically, a pizza that is 10 to 14 inches wide will feed two people, assuming the party-goers are not voraciously hungry. Since pizzas can include a very wide variety of toppings, one particular type of pizza party allows the party-goers to create their own custom-made pizza using a selection of ingredients.... When a pizza party does not include any custom-made pizzas, it is common to include at least one plain cheese-only pizza."
  3. The Eight-Circuit Model of Consciousness recommends the following to activate each circuit: opiods (Oral Bio-Survival Circuit), alcohol (Emotional-Territorial Circuit), cocaine (Neurosemantic-Dexterity Circuit), MDMA (Socio-Sexual Circuit), cannabis (Neurosomatic Circuit), LSD, and peyote (Neuroelectric).

Audiomap / Episode 23

IMG_7312.jpg

Here's the latest episode of Audiomap! This week's theme is that I'm very unorganized & chaotic so I'm perusing through CFUR's music library and playing one artist from each letter of the alphabet. Basically I'm playing whatever my lil' heart desires. It's radio anarchy up in this joint.

P.S. yes, I know you can hear other music in the background. I'm sorry. The board in Studio A is not ideal. We're workin' on it. In the meantime, thanks for bearing w/ us.
