At what point did she say to herself, "My boot is worth more than my life." I've worn those boots, it's tremendously easy to slip your foot out of them. I'm confused.

and those boots aren't even cute:-P

so, as i'm leaving class tonight, i get a text message from some weird number i don't know. i open it and there are no words, only this picture:



i couldn't figure out what it was until i forwarded it to my email, turned it counter-clockwise and looked at a larger version of it (as you see it now). it's an advertisement for the squished eyeball theater-- which i went to in 2001 when i was in san fransisco. Weird Tingly Feeling? i have no idea who sent it, where they got it, or why they sent it. and when i sent a message back asking who they were, it was ignored.

i'm thoroughly confused. i hope it's not my sociology class stalker. he wasn't in class tonight.

speaking of school, i was all excited because my sociology prof decided to make our test on chapters 5-10 a take-home test (probably because everyone did so poorly on the first one because she hasn't quite grasped the english language and it was damn near impossible to decipher what she was asking..). my friend/co-worker drema, who's in my class, and i were THRILLED because- really- how hard can a take-home, open-book test be? right?

wrong. i got to drema's at 1:30 (after spending a couple hours in the school library researching for a huge research paper due in english..). with the exception of about 45 minutes to eat around 5 or 6, and maybe an hour tops goofing off/chit-chatting, the rest of the time was spent on this test. what time did i leave her house? 10:34 pm. NINE HOURS LATER.


and it was hard as hell. there are still several questions that are unclear. because the prof is so poor at english, it's really difficult to even figure out what she's asking. sigh. i will be emailing her for clarification on some of these questions.

i got a 92%. not bad, no- but not as high as i'd hoped. we're supposed to be going over the test next week. i fully intend to bring that test grade up then. i will argue some of my answers as being correct and i will win my arguments.

Two whole asses? Or a two holed ass? Or two ass holes?

 ...she checked in for an operation on her leg - and woke up to find she had been given a new anus. :-o

 I wonder if they mean she got the bill, and man, they tore her a new one?  :lol:

It's "hear, hear," I believe.

And the site is here if you want to see more- most are dripping in sarcasm, and make a lot of nerdy references. :P

Every day on my way home from work, I drive by a place in a local strip mall called "The Prom Shop".

And every day I misread the sign at first glance as if to say "The Pr0n Shop".

That should be done. Wonder how long it would take them to notice it, and then how long for them to fix it.

I've been reading some stories on THE INTERNET about these subprime folk that are losing their houses so they're doing the only rational thing: trashing the place.

I just can't understand that mentality. "wait, you mean just because I missed six months worth of payments you're going to take my house away?!?" *shits in every room*

And it's THIS kind of attitude that is fucking up our society. "Me, me, me, it's all about me, fuck yours I got mine." Couple the entitlement complex with a victimhood complex and you've got pretty much a huge chunk of Americans in a nutshell.

I put partial blame on all products that enforce the self-centered lifestyle. iPod, MySpace, basically anything that tries to make you out to be some unique little snowflake.

Damn kids get offa the lawn.

The baby boomers coddled their kids because they didn't want them to have it as hard as they did.  I guess the entire generation didn't realize that it was the working hard that made them as strong and independent as they were.  So we're left with an entire generation who want everything handed to them.  And the generation coming up will want the same because it's always been that way as far as they're concerned.

When I used to repo cars I was similarly flabbergasted by the reactions some people would have.

"What?  You mean you haven't made a car payment for 8 months and yet somehow you're surprised to see me?"

Interesting trivia:

 The series M*A*S*H* had a laugh track; but they never played it during O.R. scenes.
