Stolen from everybody
Okay, this appears to be a conglomeration of two different memes, each of which I have done several times over. However, I am both a sucker and a nerd, and this is changed enough to be something new. So here goes ( Read more... ) -
A study in contrast...
The lesson: Michael Richards' only real mistake was not being funny.
Or maybe just not being Bill Hicks.
But then Seinfeld would be a very different show.
UPDATE: More here, from the same show. The more I see, the more convinced I am that this whole thing is simply a case of Richards making the fatal (and probably not uncommon) mistake of ( Read more... ) -
Good evening.
Al Kaprielian has a MySpace.
Al Kaprielian has a MySpace.
Al Kaprielian has a MySpace.
And he's got "Under Pressure" as his background music!
You have no idea how thoroughly this makes my night.
In other news, I swear I'll post something of substance again sometime. But man. Al Kaprielian.
EDITED because I apparently can't spell "Al."

In which the author steadfastly ignores the obvious innuendo
Okay... I acknowledge that I have a tendency to write hyperventilating posts about esoteric subjects that mean little to all but one or two people who read this journal. This entry, however, is a little different. It is entirely possible (maybe even probable) that this will mean nothing to anybody reading this.

Raw Power to the people!
Gad, it's been a while since I've posted anything of substance. As luck would have it, I actually have multiple topics of substance that I could easily write decent, thought-provoking pieces on. But, as it turns out, I am lazy, so instead here's another snotty, indulgent theory about musical minutiae ( Read more... ) -

It's time once again for that most anticipated entertainment event of the year: the new college radio season! Starting tomorrow, you'll be able to hear me every Wednesday evening from 10PM to midnight on WRBB for Gonorrhea Gone Awry!, which, if you'll recall, was my original, rejected title for my WECB show waaay the fuck back in freshman year.

I LOVE THIS COUNTRY
Also, before I forget, I feel I need to share this snippet of dialogue, overheard between two young teen boys perusing the Summer Reading table at Barnes & Noble:
BOY #1: How about Fahrenheit 451?
BOY #2: Nah, we can't. It's on the restricted list! -
News on the march!
I really like this headline. Not in the usual, cynical way, though. I like reading it like Bush is emphasizing the word "us" instead of talking about the United States. "I've made US safer. What the hell's YOUR problem?!" -
Borderline flash-mob...
Okay, I realize this is insanely short notice. There is a reason for that. That reason is that, uh, we all forgot about it too. But anyway, how would you like to go to a Demons of Stupidity show tomorrow???
Tomorrow night, the Demons will be playing a party for a bunch of exiting Barnes & Noble employees at Daisy Buchanan's on Newbury Street. ( Read more... )
