It's hump day here so I guess it's time for a drink. Finished an exam today and nothing to study for in a while so might make it a week long thing. Also if there is a variety of short shorts that should be done away with it's these ones. These nasty fucking things are everywhere here in Australia and they are fucking horrible. And like all previous mentioned items chicks think they look amazing in them instead of ridiculously stupid for having pockets stick halfway down their leg.
Nobody panic, I managed to power through the work day and went out for Mardi Gras like a champ. (I'm touched that everyone was very concerned about my nausea being a sign of pregnancy, but I have an IUD so I am GOOD TO GO.) It was a good night, but then on my way home I decided to stop by my bodega for a snack since I skipped lunch due to the nausea and stumbled and crashed into the weird display of pigs' feet despite it being a mainly fruits and veggie bodega and I splashed pigs feet juice all over my legs. Then, I finally got home and decided to bold walking down the hallway in the dark and instead of gracefully maneuvering turning the corner to get to my room I smacked right into the corner and I'm pretty sure my nose is broken. Happy Mardi Gras.
Fuck instagram, why the hell do I want to see pictures of other peoples food when I have plenty of bacon to eat in my fridge.
Nooooooooo that site deserves the scorn it recieves, between hack photographers taking out-of-focus "art" photos to rich kids posting a picture of their $100,000 bar bill at Nikki Beach. That place should change its name to whogivesaflyingfuck.com
Do you have to pay Zooey Deschanel royalties every time something like this happens? You strike me as the type of person who would let Cease and Desist letters just pile up.
It was awkward, he probably could have played it off better, but this is a massive "who gives a fuck". For or against him, its not like he had a massive verbal misstep. Maybe it should have been at arms reach so he didn't look as weird. But regardless, it should have no bearing on opinion of him or his statement. Who am I kidding, this is the US media. LOLZ, REPUBLICANS SUCK AND ARE STOOPID.
So are you telling me there was a 5 second pause where this man took a drink of water, and it is now a media uproar? Are you fucking kidding me? The guy was probably talking a lot, and his mouth was dry. What needs to happen in this country so we can stop obsessing over every little thing. Any second of silence gets labeled as weird or awkward. Yes this guy probably practiced for awhile, but maybe his body had an odd last minute occurence and a sip of water was the only cure to it. For all we know it could have prevented projectile vomitting on national television. Jesus fuccking christ, can we pay attention to what these guys are saying, if they are doing / can do / did what they are saying? This shit is constantly coming up, tiny little distractions from the primary focus of what we should be paying attention to. "What color tie is he wearing?" "Is he wearing an American Flag pin?" I'm still pissed about the "binders full of women" tihng even happened. I wasn't voting for old boy, but I thought it was the dumbest shit in the world people went after that. How about we focus and ask if he actually did try to hire women? But god no, we have to focus on his word choice that is absolutely fucking meaningless. Now this. To quote Adam Carolla "Do we just have nothing fucking better to do? The only reason we focus on this little stupid shit is because we no longer have anything to be afraid of. We can't judge anyone anymore, no one is really afraid of God, and we obviously don't have anymore real problems to focus on." Except we do, but no one wants to focus on them because they're hard. tl:dr: Why is it only fucking Wednesday!?!!
Can someone explain the Harlem Shake to me? I don't understand it, and it makes me feel like I am no longer hip to the goings-on of the youngs.* *Expression shamelessly stolen from audrey.
I just love how a constitutionally mandated statement has turned into an absurd partisian prep rally that features a prepared statement that is meant to be a response to a speech that has never been heard. You're not responding, you're just giving the same points but spinning them about how 'Merica is bad now because the other party is in charge. (Same every year no matter who's in power) On the prep rally note, the Harlem shake has been aroudn since at least 2003 around here. People used to do that shit at our prep rallies in high school.
Don't worry Audrey, I got you. Oh and the updated version where I need someone to explain to me what the fuck is going on.
You know why people latched on to it? Because it was distracting. Because politics is only 10% about ideas and 90% presentation. Because communication is as much about (actually more about) nonverbal communication than verbal. Because Rubio was chosen specifically by his party to respond to the State of the Union and he was clearly flustered most of the time (he was sweating bullets, and that grabbing a drink thing was very strange). Rubio was the guy literally representing his entire party's ideals that night, and he looked uncomfortable the entire time. Compare Rubio's presentation to that of Obama and it was no contest. Obama was confident and concise. Rubio was flustered, sweaty, and looked nervous the entire time. You want to convince the American people of your ideas, you need to have a strong presentation of those ideas. Rubio failed at that. Is it going to be blown out of proportion? Yeah, a little, but it is still kind of a big deal. This was their party's chance to sell the American public on their ideas and why Obama's ideas presented in the State of the Union were wrong, and had he been more confident, his message would've been more effective. Now, is it right that politics is so much more about presentation than substance? No, of course not, but that is reality, and in politics today, HOW you present an idea is as important, if not moreso, than the idea itself.
I think we should focus on more important things other than fate of this nation. Like a local freak accused of giving illegal butt implants. Again. Why is this a thing?! This is the third person in a year. Bonus points for looking like Tyler Perry and Robert Z-dar's lovechild. "Not only am I the president, but I'm also a client."
