I’m posting videos like they’re going to expire tomorrow but I don’t care.
This Discovery Channel song and slogan is in my head at all times. I get excited when I see Mike Rowe or Adam & Jamie like they’re in my family or something. You may think that’s lame. But, again, I don’t care.
I promise a real, written post is coming.
Grad you way she yawn. I look like a doofus.
Speaking of which, when do you think the last time someone earnestly used the word “doofus”? I thought about this throughout the “we said it would be two hours but it was much closer to three hours” ceremony. What do you think is the longest stretch between a word being used, somewhere, on Earth? Like, has anyone said “ninconmpoop” seriously in 40 years?
- doug: i was just thinking about what you said, y'know, the other day when i was lying on the couch, that i should be more active, so, that's why i picked up one of these.
- carrie: the nassau rebels tryout waiver?
- doug: yeah, you remember the rebels.
- carrie: no.
- doug: sure you do, it's the semi-pro team that i--
- carrie: i remember the team. i mean: "no, you're not playing football again".
- doug: ...i think i am.
- carrie: what the hell is going on here, anyway, doug? i mean, you spend one afternoon running around with a bunch of 8 year olds and all of a sudden you're turning pro?
- doug: ok, first of all: semi-pro. and there were a couple 9 year olds there.
no, what you have are bullets. and the hope that when your guns are empty, i'm no longer standing. because if i am... you'll all be dead before you've reloaded.
I feel like, with no more grades ever to befall me, I should point out the sheer dominance I exhibited in this, the final chapter of this ambitious failed sequel of a saga (let’s face it, High School was Raiders of the Lost Ark and College was Temple of Doom).

Sometimes, when you’re listening to music or podcasts whilst doing work, you’ll notice things in your musical selections that are noteworthy. Like how many artists have used the same word or phrase for a song title. Or how many songs a certain artist has that are the exact same length.
When you don’t have a girlfriend and spend all day with the computer in front of you… you start to realize things that make you think you’re either: A) living in the Matrix and grow convinced everything is programmed and predetermined, B) Russell Crowe from the last act of A Beautiful Mind.
Anyway, here’s the much anticipated follow-up in the series of the statistical representation of both my shitty musical persuasion, my lack of originality, and my copious amounts of free time.

eight more days 'til the fourth of july.
The post title is not reflective of the false truth of it being June 26. It’s the title (and chorus) of a jamalamadingdong song that happens to be Track #2 on my newest Muxtape, which was inspired by impending warm weather. It reminds me of towels, suntan lotion, and girls trying to run in flip flops. And awesomeness. But it’s not finished yet. So you can’t know. NOT NOW.
Iron Man is arguably my favoritest superhero movie ever conceived by the minds of men. I don’t feel like explaining why this is so. It simply is. Robert Downey Jr. owns it from beginning-to-end like real estate.
How do I live in a world where I hear much more about someone who can’t really act, looks very artificial, and doesn’t seem very fun to be around (like, say, Megan Fox) than I hear about a wonderful, eminently cool, naturally hot actress (like, say, Jennifer Connelly)? This is all backwards.
I turned in Part 2 of my Final Project in Production Design on Wednesday. Based on what I saw from everyone else, I’d say I probably did well (I don’t believe in a jinxing myself in an empirical setting). School is dunzo forever… well, forever until I’m told at Graduation that I probably forgot to sign some document 4 years ago and therefore, none of my classes counted towards a degree. I’m convinced this will happen and will not feel differently until I have my diploma in my hand.
