because i am lame, i have spent both friday and saturday nights doing homework. this is especially heinous because i have accomplished almost nothing - seriously, i have never poured so many hours into a paper with such an epic lack of results.
i always feel vaguely guilty when i listen to the get up kids. it's not like they're the only misogynistic band i like - even fall out boy's whiny diatribes are full of violent imagery - but whenever something about the get up kids triggers the little feminist voice in my head to remind me that this is music made for teenage boys to listen to while they objectify women. it's unfortunate, but something about adolescent boy music is just so satisfying that i can't get enough of it.
also, i'd just like to point out that whenever i write something super emo i am reminded with creeping horror of andy greenwald and how he stalked those poor kids' livejournals and voyeuristically followed their breakup. AND THEN WROTE ABOUT IT IN A BOOK, AS FAR AS I CAN TELL WITHOUT THEIR KNOWLEDGE. someday i really am going to retroactively friends-only this thing, even if i don't generally chronicle my every emotion.
