Ok, so here we are again. I’m a couple weeks into this tumblr thing and I’m already starting to feel like I’m losing interest. My whole basis for this blog was to just post random things that I find funny/interesting/weird and not care if anyone reads it. But, it seems that I do care if people read it or not. We all love feedback from whatever we’re doing, some people needing it a bit more than others ::cough cough Hitler cough:: —Oh come on, a Hitler joke?— Don’t tell me that if Hitler had an online blog, things wouldn’t have turned out differently. —I think you need to watch a little less History Channel.—
*VERY LARGE* Anyway, I think I’ll keep this thing going. The benefits for me and my writing alone outweigh whether or not people want to comment. But please, comment so that I know if I’m doing anything remotely interesting.
And all of the staff at Tumblr just gave me the sad “awww”.
I SWEAR TO GOD…
this is the last format change for at least a day or so. :)
however, i will try and post some pics from the flaming lips show the mrs. and i were at last week. it was so good, so flaming, and so lip-py? yes, that.
what’s with all the changes, asshat.
So, perhaps I’ve found a tumblr theme that doesn’t make me seem pretentious… maybe.
The color scheme is obviously not very colorfull, but ya know what, black is the product of all colors combined together, so maybe it’s the most colorfull blog EVER.
New theme, new music, same schtick. Enjoy this effin’ pop awesomeness.
Good news, nobody’s!
Like most poeple, I just spent a good part of my lunch break thinking about the SAT’s. —Nerd.—
Anyway, most of my conclusions were formed in the phrase, “That doesn’t equate to the real world.” The SAT’s (as I remember) was just a lot of multiple choice questions wanting you to know the synonyms and antonyms of words in an analogous comparison. —Did you just write that?— These questions are great if you’ve memorized the dictionary like you’re some Diane Court wanna-be, but most of us still don’t understand the difference between a metaphor and a simile. —A metaphor is like a simile.— What?
So, my thoughts on improving the SAT’s would be putting more REAL LIFE scenarios into the three different sections. —Math, Language, and Gym?— I know this isn’t a groundbreaking idea. Tons of people have probably said this at some point in their lives. —Yeah, either after they saw their score of 850, or started up a Tumblr blog.— Hey! I’ve written out one of my new and improved questions below. See if you can get it right!
Math Section This question is worth ALL of your TOTAL SCORE
You placed an order from your favorite lunchtime Chinese restaurant, Ollie’s, which is less than one block away. The delivery man arrives in 25 minutes and you see that your bill is $15.17. Taking into account the proximity of the restaurant and that the delivery man has AT LEAST 4 children; what is the appropriate amount (In US dollars, not Pesos) to tip him without having him show you the ”You didn’t give me enough face” but not as to not make him think that you are now BFF’s?
1. $2.00 2. $3.00 3. $4.00 4. Your left kidney. (Don’t worry, you never used it anyway.) 5. $5.00
Leave your answer in the comments section. The first to get it right wins the prize of being able to brag to friends that you WERE RIGHT ON THE INTERNET.
if i can’t think of anything good to write, i can at least give you folks something good to listen to.
i’ll be back later with some prose about people who are one or more of the following: annoying/funny/idiotic/brilliant/ridiculous/sultry. i promise!
this is why i’m hot
okay, so we are at the start of day two of my office having no a/c or water. i would’ve blogged about this yesterday, but energy was low. i’m hopped up on iced caffeine right now, so energy tank is 100%. we’ve got at least 6 fans running in every corner of the office, so i imagine when mid afternoon rolls around it’s just gonna be a hot wind storm of musk in here. oh wait! as i write this we’re being told the water is back. huzzah.
switching gears.
so i’m sure we’re all in agreement that mel gibson is all sorts of crazy and needs one of meds/psych care/straight jacket to rejoin society. but, his girlfriend in these “golden nuggets of audio history” isn’t totally absolved (whoa! big words) of blame either. yes, she is the victim here, but i think posting one phone call with him is enough. we already knew he was way out in left field to begin with, so putting up 4 (with 2 more coming for sure, to complete the “gibson goes bonkers” double trilogy) recordings she’s only hurting herself more. she will now always be known as the con, to mel gibson’s pro, of the arson & bj’s debate. however, i’m sure she’ll be able to get all the help needed from either oprah or ellen. moving on emmy?
that’ll be it for now. i’ll mostly likely be back this afternoon when i stop giggling like a school girl over the ny red bull signing of thierry henry. dude is going to rock it in nyc.
for your technology
there’s a blackberry app for tumblr, so I think this thing should have legs for a while. basically anything over 140 characters will post here first and then be redirected to twitter via magic. or maybe tubes. who knows how the internet works!
feel free to leave a “note” (guess tumblr’s to good to use “comment”) to let me know people are interested in this.
i’ll post later in the day after something ridiculous happens.
