Well, the hookers saw you. One of them thought the plane was a "shooting comment" and made a wish.

Tomorrow's midterm is going to rape me. I have no interest in pursuing a career in natural resource management, but this class is taught as if every student wants to do just that.

Man, Family Guy was hilarious, last night. They start the episode off with news anchor Tom Tucker reporting that "Detroit has given up" blah, blah, blah, and that it was "sold back to the Huron indians." I have to find the full quote. In fact, the whole episode was one of the funnier ones I've seen in awhile.

People say it's gotten old, but I find my trick of tuning in once every couple months works great! I hardly ever watch FG anymore, so when I do, I usually enjoy it.

I hate to sound lame, but the one thing I don't like is when they go overboard on the violence.

Obviously, one of the writers must be from Michigan/Metro Detroit. Last year a character on The Cleveland Show said something similar to "Everyone knows never to buy property in Detroit."

OMG the first thing I ever bought with my paper route money as a kid was that Queen album. I first discovered Queen by checking it out at my local library. Yeah the cover kinda creeped me out too. Hey, I was 10!

That was a funny episode.

OMG I just watched a video of her on Tumblr! She said that a haircut is a great opportunity for a laugh and then proceeded to laugh at her reflection for a full minute! Definitely Canadian, or a Canadian-wannabe. There are quite a few people like that up here. They could probably fill a small city.

Yeah, we're right fucking insane up here. And we just moved the clocks forward an hour so we're all waking up in the dark again, so I predict a spike in the absurdity index over the next few weeks.

She starts out sounding like an elementary school teacher, then she suddenly full-throttles it to chock full-o-nuts!

It's the last thing she needs right now, given the economic situation in Spain, and the uncertainty of her employment situation over the next while. She did want kids in the next few years. Hopefully she sees the silver lining here.
she won't be seeing any lining for a while.



sorry.

You just know some of our more infamous forumers would find a way to disagree/fight over this list like its the absolute most important thing of all time that absolutely has to be determined RIGHT NOW.

Also, moby: The fuck!?
