You know those moments where English classes get TOO over-analytical and where it’s getting so ridiculously out-of-context that even the author’s probably getting confused (wherever they are). Yeah, today’s not one of those days. Twain + Poe lecture while I’m alive only b/c of coffee and after listening to Death Cab for Cutie= absolutely and weirdly amazing. This was...

Is Any of This Really Worth It?
Is it? You spend your whole life working hard, studying, trying to make the grade- and for what? A gold star; a letter grade; maybe a pang of self-pride and self-worth? But what happens when those things aren’t enough? You try so hard to do well and to be a good person- and for what? A meaningless job that you can’t wait to get off from? Friends made from necessity? A shiny new car...

I like New Girl, but...
Seriously?! It’s not Golden Globe worthy. I was pulling for Community, but, still, there’s a number of shows that are better and more developed than New Girl. The only appeal of that show is Zooey. It’s a good show, but it’s not that good. Sorry, but it’s the truth. (in a related note: this year’s Golden Globes’s Best Actor in a Motion Picture,...

For a moment, I contemplated what was worse: - enduring this chem final, knowing that I have failed and I’m going to have to repeat the course OR - cutting my arm off a la ‘127 Hours’

Confession #2
Shitty morning, horrible day, all fixed by a cup of gelato… Does that make me an emotional eater? Maybe. But, hey, Thomas More states in “Utopia” that a pleasure of the body is nourishment (eating and drinking). SO, therefore, I’m just experiencing a natural delight. Bottom line: food makes me happy, so just deal with it.

No "Fake Tales of San Francisco" ?
(I’m still horrible at tumblr, I barely know how to use it…) Fake Tales was noticibly not on my list for my top ten Arctic Monkeys songs.  I think, partly, it wasn’t on there because the top ten list was a spur-of-the-moment/ which songs first came to me and were my favorites. But out of the entire catalog, Fake Tales just doesn’t hit top ten for me. It’s a good,...

...well it is a valid argument!
arcticmonkeysus: what do you think ”my propeller” is about? I believe it’s about a prostitute…Anonymous —————————————- Your claim now stands before the Court of Common Sense, and I’m judge and jury up in this bitch. The argument in favor of MyProProstitute lacks merit and should be dismissed as a matter of fact on the grounds that it has no basis in reality. Why not? Ooh, allow me to...
