Because Everything is a Phallic Symbol
My roommate has been doing this paper on Freud. Thus, we discuss phallic symbols and sex. A lot.
This morning, That Damn Train went through at 6:30 AM. And the disgruntled train conductor had too much fun with the whistle. Was very pissed. Then an hour later, someone - I have the suspicion that it was the janitor - was vacuuming. Was extremely close to opening the door and yelling, "For god's sake, stop that noise!" I was rather irritated as I had an exam at 9 AM, and needed the sleep. I complained about the train, and my roommate pointed out that my annoyance with trains is actually a fear of sex. Hehe. Because you know, trains are phallic symbols, because they are indeed longer than they are wide. At the rate the trains here move though, I think they have erectile dysfunction.
Speaking of phallic symbols, I saw another gem on campus. There's a hair salon place in the student center. I pass it, and a sign catches my eye. I double back. The sign:
Blow It!

Well, you can imagine what went through my mind!! I took a picture with my camera phone. Someday I'll try to remember to take a picture with my digital camera so I can upload the picture and show you all exactly how phallic the picture looks. And when you add the words "blow it!"...well, that was the end of that!! :D
However, the original reason for this post was the movie Blades of Glory. If you have no idea what it is, watch the trailer. I must express my disappointment. If we could cast two guys who are hott, and make it a serious film (or even keep it comedic, who cares as long as we replace Will Ferrell and Jon Heder with sexy guys), the movie would have the potential to be dang hot!! Alas...
Spring Break in 2 days!!! :D
