Resolutions! I'll Make Some I Guess!
I really only have two:
Actually Exercise. This isn’t so much a New Year’s Resolution as a 2nd Semester Resolution. I guarantee it will not happen until at least a week into the semester, and I don’t really have an opportunity to do it here since I do not have free access to a nice gym.
Write creatively. Interestingly, I won’t have a choice here, as I’m taking Intro...
I went to the Plum Market and then Sam's Club
I have eaten enough free samples that I am now full.
They do not know when/Those attacks might occur... →
This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while. Someone wrote a code to comb through text a find haikus, and someone ran the Wikileaks cables through them. Some of my favorites:
As is typical, the Pope stayed above the fray and did not comment.
Instead, he gulped three cans of Coca-Cola while inhaling his food.
This does more than just ensure that she has something...
Saw "I Love You Phillip Morris"
I’m undecided. It was sort of like a gay Shawshank Redemption.
With that said, the Shawshank Redemption references were priceless. Glad I saw that before going to Mexico.
A pretty good essay on why society is fucking... →
Dear Dude Who Sat With Us at The Benihana-style...
If you ask someone where they are from, and they say “Montreal”, the correct response is not “Oh, we met someone from Vancouver the other day.” Seriously. That’s like him asking you where you are from, you saying St. Louis, and him saying “Oh, last week I met someone from Seattle.”
GUYS. THE ORIGINAL WEBSITE FOR SPACE JAM IS STILL... →
Home.
Finally.
After a 3 hour wait at the Cancun airport, and a 5 hour wait at the Atlanta airport for a flight I didn’t get on, a stay in an Atlanta hotel (there were two Waffle Houses visible from my room), and a very early morning flight, I finally am at my house. It is lovely.
I am pretty used to waking up in a suite where...
This morning was, however, the first time all of those people have been related to me.
It’s been an interesting trip, to say the least. I don’t feel like elaborating too much, and some of you will hear full stories eventually I guess. Only one more full day here, and I’m pretty ready to get back to Detroit after that. I have things to do.
Also, I’ve been listening to a...
THREE STRAIGHT BITCHES!
FORWARD DOWN THE FIELD!
A CHARGING TEAM THAT WILL NOT YEILD!
FOR WHEN THE BLUE AND SILVER WAVE!
STAND AND CHEER THE BRAVE!
RAH! RAH! RAH!
GO HARD WIN THE GAME!
WITH HONOR YOU WILL KEEP YOUR FAME!
DOWN THE FIELD AND GAIN!
A LIONS VICTORY!
GOOOOOOOOOO LIONS!
People that I hate:
Uncle Jamie.
(Reblogged from @hollisjane, but the way tumblr formats reblogs it looks like she was on the list before Uncle Jamie. I do not hate Hollis. In fact, I’m surprised she is not a tumblr crush of mine.)
When I am Home
And can tumbl whenever I want, I will be tumbling pretty much every line from On The Road.
And also probably reading On the Broad.
Wouldn't it be adorable if I listened to The xx...
This is now my plan for tomorrow.
Or at least about 40 minutes of tomorrow.
There was a dude at dinner with a three wolf moon...
Which means I saw both the real shirt and the parody today.
This counts as a good day.
Also there was beer.
Does anyone know if there's a low-bandwidth...
Like, where I can flip through my dashboard page-by-page instead of having the dashboard be of infinite length?
This is pretty cool. →
In short: somewhere in Montana, they failed to seat a jury in a case over less than 2 grams of pot because not enough potential jurors were willing to convict a guy over that.
There is a woman on this plane with a...
This would be ok, except I think she’s like, way too old to be wearing a three-keyboard cat moon shirt. Maybe I’m an asshole, but she’s like, older than my mother. I didn’t think they allowed people that old on the internet.
In other news, she does sort of look like a mom version of Keegan, so I guess it makes sense.
5:45AM
On the other hand, within the next 9 hours, I’ll be in Mexico.
Just Saw The Shawshank Redemption for the first...
Well, that was good.
I just don't think "Firework" is a very good song.
Its the first Katy Perry single that I really haven’t liked.
I can’t even explain it, its just not very good. Pretty disappointing, especially considering how great this album’s previous single are.
Went to American Apparel Today
Honestly, it was the most intimidating shopping experience I’ve ever had.
And they didn’t have the sweatshirt I wanted in my size.
It does not matter how slow you go so long as you do not stop.

Assange: "I'm not a Player, I Just Crush A Lot" →
This has to win the award for blog headline of the year. From BoingBoing.
The post itself is really just a wikileaks related link-dump. But, anyone else think that Assange’s hero complex (he actually said that 50% of people consider him their hero. I doubt that 50% of people know what wikileaks is) isn’t helping his public image?
Oh hai last night's drunk tumbls
I didn’t see you there.
Ballin, shot callin
Takin it back to the days of yes-yallin’
We holdin...
New years day.
Michigan vs Mississippi State.
Gator Bowl.
Its great. To be. A Michigan Wolverine.
In other news, fuck Michigan State. I know you got us in football this year, but we beat you 5-0 at the best attended hockey game of all time, and we’re finally gonna beat you in basketball this year. No matter what, you will always be Little Brother. Bitches.

Late at night, but before midnight, CBC plays...
I always forget whether its 89.1 or 89.9 though, and I ended up settling upon 89.1 because of what they were playing. It was an all-voice piece, but without words, a huge choir singing. Every little bit, some feedback would cut in, along with a guitar riff or two.
Eventually, I realized that they were two different things, and I had found an in-between on the radio dial.
Honestly though, it was...
Go See Black Swan
Seriously, this is one of the best movies I’ve seen in some time. Natalie Portman was amazing, and Mila Kunis was really incredible. So, yeah, thoroughly awesome.
This is nothing short of spectacular.
Also, I’ve been posting a lot of videos lately because I’m finally going through all the videos I didn’t watch during finals week.
