I'm going to see the Used tonight, for the first time. why_me_why_not PMed me at just the right time (I already had my credit card out for some other reason, now I can't remember, probably bills) and was like "Hey, Atlantic City, Bert, people from the internet, whaddya say." And I was like "I feel like paying Ticketmaster some charges and taking a bus to the

Have fun staring at Bert's pot-belly.

I want a t-shirt that says "how fucking awkward are you". No punctuation, no explanation.

Definitely a shirt I'd like to have. I'd wear it every day...so maybe I should buy it in bulk quantities.

[sinsense]

I will! I hope I creep him out. Seriously: that t-shirt is suitable for so many occasions.

Oh, students. I started TAing this quarter and the STUDENTS. Their essays! Oh, the horrors! At least you get an office, even if it is in the main floor and around other people!

[sinsense]

True that. The office is shared, mind you, although happily I now share my office with two rad dudes.

I much prefer teaching. At least then you know that the silliness evident in essays is Your Fault, which at least allows a little agency.

Scream "I LOVED YOU IN YOUR INTERNET PORN!" and see if the ladygirl reacts.

I want there to be a movie where this scene happens. Like, one where fangirls are not mocked (much) but are celebrated. I'd probably have to make it myself with a budget of $5 and some gum, but whatever. It would be epic.

[sinsense]

Five dollars, gum, and some fangirls: sounds like a party to me. I think you should do it. :D

I was feeling deeply emo about how badly my whole going-back-to-school plan's been going, and then I read your post and I laughed so hard I nearly cried.

GON TELL THE INTERNETS.

Thank you for that, I feel much better. Also, hi, I have missed seeing you on my flist, I have I have.

OH MAN, I have had a serious case of the emos lately, because life is seriously such a pain in the ass and also very difficult. It is necessary to swear a lot and make bad jokes at it, I think. That's the main strategy I've come up with, anyway.

GON GO TELL THE INTERNETS HOW YOU WRONGED ME, PATRICK. GON GO POUT ON TWITTER. God, he's amazing. There are very few words.

But a lot of hearts for you! I needed to hear cheery things, myself. ♥♥♥

The Used! I missed them when they swung through here due to Snowmageddon "Near Blizzard" conditions (direct newspaper headline quote), but I saw them last March, and they are TONS of fun to see. :D

Speaking of inappropriate language: I said something about having "shit to do" on a Facebook album, and got a 500 word treatise from my uncle on the Appropriateness of Cursing In The Workplace and how it was Very Shocking to him that the military (he's a contractor in Iraq) has the AUDACITY to use CURSE WORDS in official meetings and how he is disappointed that my brother and I have started cursing more around him (mind, my brother and I are 22 and 24).

I laughed for a good hour about that.

SNOWMAGEDDON. I have been enjoying the snow neologisms, myself. Especially "snowmageddon," because it sounds like the end of a dirty joke about the abominable snowman? "...and then he said, 'SNOW-MA-GETTIN HUNGRY!'" Or something.

(My local news was requesting people send in photographs of the snow, which they referred to as "snowtographs," which sounds like "snottographs." That was my second favorite of the neologisms.)

LOLOLOLOL oh my god I love lectures on Facebook. I have yet to get one -- my family is notoriously pottymouthed across the board -- but I always giggle uncontrollably when I get to witness one. That is amazing.

Also man I am kind of secretly excited for the Used. Whoo! I'm glad you got to see them before, so snowmageddon didn't poop on your fun.

[anoneknewmoose]

DID YOU KNOW SOLDIERS USE CURSE WORDS ON A REGULAR BASIS? AND (YOUNG, MALE) MARINES DO STUPID THINGS LIKE PUTTING NEWSPAPER WADS IN THEIR FIREARMS' TRIGGER GUARDS???

Oh uncle, seriously, have you never watched a war movie?

The best part about when I saw the Used was there was a private 21+ outdoor patio? So we hung out out there and only went in to stand at the back for "Taste of Ink." There are some perks to being of age! Because I am definitely old enough to want to shake my fist at all the darned kids at shows.

WHAT IS THIS YOU SPEAK OF? TREASON!

I writhed around in the morass of damn younguns, but I think I probably should have been wiser and gone to the balcony... it was a bit much sometimes.
