If all the planets moons and the asteroid belt we have in our suns orbit were taken into account, would the percentage change by much?

Is there a good way to remember something you were thinking of, then were momentarily distracted, and then left with just a memory that you had something important to think about but you dont actual remember the content of that thought.

you gotta go deeper, think about something that you were thinking prior to that and go back to the forgotten thought.
imagine these letters are 'thoughts'
a -> b -> c -> d
*distraction*
*forgets thought c*
a -> b -> ?? -> d
go back thinking about a or b and maybe you can remember c

No, that was kind of the point. The non-sun mass in the solar system is neglectible compared to the sun-mass. Planets, moons, asteroids are all part of the non-sun mass in the solar system. The sun is really heavy. If you go down the ladder, the next thing is Jupiter. Jupiter is 2.5 times as massive as the rest of the planets in the solar system combined. It has 1/1000 of the mass of the sun. (Fun fact: Jupiter is the only object in the solar system where the center of the mass of the two combined is NOT inside the sun, and that just barely.)
If you go upwards in size from the sun, this becomes relevant:

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
On a more "serious" note. I'm going to college should I stay in a relationship, that's not rly long distance, but we go to 2 different schools?

I'll leave the wood chucking question to someone else
As for the relationship: the fact that you're asking this question is really telling. If you would have solid confidence in the relationship, there was no way you would let 2 different schools get in the way, right? You asking the question sounds to me like you're looking for a valid excuse/reason to put an end to this relationship. So end it.
+ Show Spoiler +If you were offended by what I just wrote: good for you! Stick with the relationship and don't let the 2 schools bother you. After all, later on you will have different jobs and different friends, and that's ok. So why would 2 different schools be a problem?
On the other hand: if you were not offended at all, maybe even thought I had a valid point: end it quick. Don't let it linger on because you will regret it.

how would you pronounce "seggit" in english correctly? Like, hard "g", a "g´ that sounds like "dsh/gsh"?

How far apart are these two schools? If they are really close I don't see how it'd be different than you two just taking all different classes.

Do you guys feel weird or grossed out of something if I tell you that Asian people eat stuff like chicken's feet, pig's blood, ox tongue, fish bladder, pigeons, preserved duck eggs, snake, eel, rockfish, or similar? Not like dogs because that's kinda strange and we have an attachment to dogs/cats/birds, but sometimes I can't tell.

I frequently feel weird and grossed out hearing about the things eaten by French people, or folks in the American South, or the British.

Ox tongue is not especially asian, there is also a pretty traditional german food made from it.
Other than that, if you carefully analyze stuff people eat it always sounds bad. Filled pig intestines. Unfertilized chicken embryos. Milk injected with mold and left to rot for a while.

Moldy blue cheese is moldy moldy mold.

Anyone else notice how people seem to struggle with the conceptual difference between these two types of balls and their impact related consequences?

How do you deal with getting promoted when you don't play enough to actually be a good player?

Complain about it on the b.net forums.

Yes.

I was reading a friends post on FB and shes talking to someone who's posts do not appear visible to me. Now I am 99.99% sure I am not blocked by this person so I am curious, how do you set it up so people who are not your friends can't read comments on facebook threads?
