So...in March I already threw away two big bags worth of crap, and gave away several boxes more. Still, I've started going through everything again, this time determined to be more ruthless than ever. The first pile I went through was my stuff left over from midd. Now, I'm not talking about books or notes or long articles which I painstakingly ( Read more... )

I got 21/30, which I think is pretty good because I've never read any Batman, and all the Shakespeare quotes I got wrong were from plays I haven't read, so...you should try it; it's fun :)

And speaking of Batman, that pic of Tom Hardy as Bane...I am so ready for this film. Damn youse, ( Read more... )

Sometimes I stay up for no reason at all. I'm so tired right now I can barely keep my eyes open, but I still have to force myself to go to bed. It's always like I'm missing something, or waiting for something- an idea, maybe. I don't know. I don't know why I do it.

....but this is not one of those times.

Because I just found out that there is a movie in the next year or so that will have Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, Tom Hardy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Ciaran Hinds, and a slew of other people I thought I didn't know but apparently have seen in dozens of films according to their pages and it's not my kind of story ( Read more... )

So....Google is my homepage. Not gonna lie. One of my favorite things when my browser starts up is to see if Google has something fancy schmancy going on. And today I said to myself, "Surely there will be something wonderful for St. Patrick's Day ( Read more... )

How did I miss this beautiful video? Gary Numan + Nine Inch Nails = EPIC WIN. For realsies, yo. And it's also like...bringing it together with The Mighty Boosh. In spirit, anyway. I love how they fucking rocking that 80s shit on their respective keyboards. And Trent + tambourine!

It was really surreal watching the oscars on Sunday and seeing Trent ( Read more... )

So it was in the paper today that...ugh....let's start from the beginning, I guess....

-Gaybashing fuckwads from Westboro were going to come up and protest.

-Counter-protest planned.

-News comes out that the bashers were coming up because they'd received emails from concerned citizens in the local ( Read more... )

This working full time and going to school thing is really not my bag.

I mean really not my bag.
