1 Chimp, 1 Toad

November 13, 2009

Let me ask you something. If someone sent you this video, would you still be friends with them? Or would you, like me, be incredibly disturbed by this animal-on-animal rape that you wouldn’t ever look at nature in the same way again? And therefore, feel really weird around that person?

Apparently, I’m alone cause this is what my friends had to say.

Will: HOLY SHIT. That frog has like no gag reflex!

Chris: The sound of the child crying in the background perfectly captures my own reaction to everything about this video. There’s not enough hot water in the world to wash off this dirty feeling.

Me: You didn’t answer my question.

Chris: I think there are some states in which you could bring that person up on charges for sending you this. Not sure if Cali is one of them.

B: I say no. It was nice knowing you Moye.

Jason: Man that really sucked.

Sam: The frog was totally asking for it.

B: Don’t you guys hate it when you’re sick and you lose your voice and it sounds like you have a chimp in your throat?

Will: If that chimp suspects that frog to be a princess, he’s doing it all wrong.

Thanks, guys. I need more girl friends.

Gosship Girl

November 12, 2009

Is it just me or are they singing “Gosship Girl”? Does speaking Korean give you an American speech impediment? I know nothing about this Rainbow girl group but this whole music looks like an ad for Forever 21 and I can’t even figure out who’s who.

I also have no idea what’s going on in this video. I really thought it was 4 different girls until I realized it was the same girl with 4 different hairstyles. Does that make me racist?

Yesterday turned all the way around from being a stupid Monday to being an awesome Monday since our professional photos came in. I LOVE THEM. They reflect the night exactly as I remembered it, which is exactly what I wanted.

I’m going to wait until we get the low-res photos to post some more, but here’s my favorite from the night. Now we have to pick one for the thank you cards.

PlayStation 3 Parody

November 9, 2009

My friends saw this PlayStation 3 commercial and decided to do their own parody version. Love it. Except I still don’t understand why they have Pearl Harbor on Blu-Ray. There’s no excuse for that

I don’t know where this came from but I love it.

Patterns By Gen

November 5, 2009

This image is really big. But I love it so much. I gave Gen a leftover buck slip and this is what she came up with. See, this is what I like about art: it’s when it comes from unexpected places. The best art are from those who don’t say they can draw; they just create designs with their own style.

Gen is also married to a sculptor and is surrounded by some of the most artistic people ever, so she’s probably an amazing drawer and just doesn’t tell me about it.

Do The Pumpkin Dance

Um…I don’t know what this is about but I’ll be using this as inspiration for future dances around the apartment.

A Glee Crush

November 4, 2009

mark

I know. This is sad. I am a grown ass woman and I’m drooling over Mark Salling from Glee. But I don’t care. This man is hot. HOT. And he’s only a year younger than me, so that doesn’t make me a cougar.

I also know that I am recently married, and I also know that I always point him out every time B sits down to watch Glee with me, and I know he’s totally different than my type (do I even have a type?) but there is just something so yummy about Salling.

He’s like the cute jock from high school who occasionally says hi to you when you pass him in the hallway while holding your books with sweaty palms, because you once lent him a pencil during math class. Or like that really cute boy from your college Japanese class who would say some of the most adorable dumb things ever. One time, he called the Absolute Quiet room in the college library (where you could go study without any distractions) as the “Absolutely Quiet room” which we thought was hilarious. Well, it was hilarious at the time. Lynn and Jenny know who I’m talking about. I think he had a drug problem a year later but anyway…

Mark Salling makes my heart skip a beat. Hmm…so did all the spam I ate for lunch today.

12 Most Annoying Types of Tweeters

November 3, 2009

A long time ago, CNN devoted precious web space to a list of the 12 Most Annoying Types of Facebookers, which was much needed and very true, which lead almost everyone in the world to share the article on their Facebook profile, leading me to think that maybe the 13th type should have been The Sheep Herd. You know, people who will just share anything because they think it’s original, hilarious and/or actually relevant, even though they fail to check Snopes.com first to see if the cancer boy they’re sending prayers for actually exists.

It was only a matter of time before someone came up with a list of the 14 Types of Twitter Personalities, which I got really excited about because there’s nothing more annoying than the same range of tweets you come across. Except this list was way too tame. Lists are supposed to insult people. Did they really put “The Journalist” as a personality and quote CNN’s Breaking News account? That’s the official Twitter of CNN, not some guy who happens to enjoy putting out the latest headlines for the world to read for the art of journalism. Let’s be real.

Anyway, here’s my list. Welcome to the 12 Most Annoying Types of Tweeters by yours truly.

  1. The Incessant Tweeter: The person who won’t STFU about the stupid details in their life. The person who needs to mark every moment of their life, day, and hour with a tweet. I’m looking at you, Tila Tequila. Going to the bathroom! Can’t wait for lunch! OMG this car just cut me off! Traffic sucks! Finally home! Here’s my life story, starting at age 4! How is it possible that these people tweet incessantly about their dinner date DURING the dinner date?
  2. The Passive Aggressive: See image above. People who use Twitter to register their complaints about everyone and everything around then. No one is ever good enough and we have to hear all about it on Twitter. Here’s a tip: why don’t you just turn around and tell your coworker that they talk too loud on the phone instead of us? [This applies to me personally. I hate myself.]
  3. The Noob: The people who open up Twitter accounts and promptly post “I don’t get this!!” and then never update their status again or sign their tweets off with their full name, like it’s a letter or something. Yes, I’ve seen this happen. Waste of space.
  4. The Starf*cker: I couldn’t think of any other name, but these are the type of people who will only follow celebrity tweeters and only respond to them. Like this guy. Who the eff cares what you think about them? And no, these famous people don’t care either.  They’re probably not even reading your tweets, because the person actually writing Britney Spear’s tweets is only a PR assistant who hates her job.
  5. The Self-Promoter: The people who will only retweet themselves or talk about envious stuff they’ve done. We get it. You’re great. You’re awesome. You’re also hot. But are all those TwitPic self portraits necessary? Can you acknowledge the rest of the world, please? (PS. I am guilty of this but sometimes getting to sit down with Admiral Adama is just SO FUCKING COOL I have to tell everyone.)
  6. The Stalker: You know those people who don’t ever tweet anything themselves but always have something to say to you? Argh. It’s like they’re just watching your every move and once you say something stupid, they’re the first one to @ you with a wise ass comment.
  7. The Negative Nancy: Please read this entry.
  8. The Obscurist: I stole this from the CNN list but it still relates. Stop with the mysterious, shady tweets. “Only time will tell.” Yeah, wtf?
  9. The Tweet-Too-Harders: Please see this site.
  10. The RSS Feeds: It’s one thing to have a popular blog. It’s another thing to have a companion Twitter. But when your tweets are basically your blog’s RSS feed, then what’s the point? At least try something original in this corner of the Internet.
  11. The Latecomers: It’s really cool when Twitter is used as a breaking news tool. But sometimes there are those who are 3 days behind schedule but still have to tweet about it. Did you hear Michael Jackson died?
  12. The Moochers: A good friend once told me that people should live their lives by doing something useful for society, whether it’s giving back in some way with your job/expertise/lifestyle or just helping out. These Tweeters are the complete opposite: all they do is just use Twitter as their personal search engine. What’s the best way to do this? How do I do this? Where can I get that? Just fucking Google it. They take, take and take but never give back.

I’ve got like 5 more types but writing this has put me in a bad mood, so I’m going to stuff my face with leftover Halloween candy.

Happy Halloween!

October 31, 2009

My co-worker, Sterling, just won the unofficial Halloween costume contest in the office. Seriously. Could anyone come up with a better videogame related outfit?
