This is an entry about TV shows I've been watching lately.  The ones I love, the ones I can't stand, and the ones I can't stand but watch anyways.  What can I say, I wanna rant.

LOVE:

The Office: Season 5 ended with a not-super-surprising-but-still-didn't-see-coming ending.  Season 6 started lately and I love where it's going.  I think what I like ( Read more... )

What a day.  Unfortunately it isn't over until I finish a paper comparing a very long chapter to a very long YouTube video about Herbert Marcuse.  Contemporary Sociological theory is a riot.  Seriously, did I choose this?

At least Modest Mouse understands my pain.

So Trapt was in town tonight.  The conditions seemed perfect.  It was held at Scout Bar ( Read more... )

In my textbook, the properties of an apple are described as “appleness.” It’s as if they stole the word right out of my mouth.
