Today I was told that Internet Rebellion wasn't dumb, it was just radical.
Radical? Really?
Radical is sitting at a counter where you are prohibited to sit because of centuries of discrimination built into the very legal code, and not getting up or retaliating no matter how intensely you are ridiculed or beaten.
Radical is refusing to eat until the illegitimate authority that has ruled your land through fear and intimidation, along with outright terror, leaves. And not only that, but s
Denizens, today I relate to you a story, a story borne of trials, tribulations, and yes, dear readers, of joy, truth, and awesomitude.
It is a story I like to call "Trying to get to Austin."
So, I had Monday through Thursday off from work this past week. My friend Mike and I decide, hey, why not, let's take a trip down to Austin, Texas. I've never been, and he has some friends he hasn't seen in years down there. So, we do what spontaneous people do best, and we made plans a few days in adv
Hey, did you guys know that Valentine's Day is properly referred to as the Feast of St. Valentine, and commemorates a Catholic Saint who, legend says, was executed by Claudius II?
So, say something kind to someone you care about today. They could be gone tomorrow.
I've been meaning to do this for awhile, but I keep forgetting. Anyway, this is a very different semester for me, so I thought it was time to update on my life a little bit.
So, for the past four and a half years, I've been a college student living in a college town, away from home, and sometimes not sucking at the whole college experience. Last semester, I even became the head of a House Church on campus with twenty or so members. Being a college student has been one of my defining character
Somewhere in the crazy hubbub that is my life currently, I didn't notice that my anniversary had passed.
I have been a member of BZPower for eight years.
EIGHT.
(And as an aside, there are now eight blog staffies. Boom.)
Kirsten Dunst was a terrible Mary Jane.
Tobey Maguire was a terrible Spider-Man.
James Franco was a passable Harry.
A reboot is in the best interest of everyone. Let's get a sarcastic smart aleck for Spidey this time, and not only a natural redhead for Mary Jane, but a natural redhead with actual acting skills.
So today began the year of oh-ten. Instead of writing up some goofy resolutions, or a retrospective, I'm going to write some random thoughts and confessions from 2009.
- I don't miss the once-close friend who dropped me from her life back in January.
- I still don't think there is anything good inside the 'country' genre of music.
- I secretly enjoyed watching Kanye interrupt Taylor Swift.
- I think she's a terrible musician.
- But I don't think Beyonce had a great video, either.
- I lov
And most importantly:
I'm going to do this like Primus did.
Pros: BIONICLE compatible pieces Better torso than the Inika/Piraka torsos New pieces in old colours New pieces! More cohesive aesthetically than BIONICLE Cons:Expensive Expensive Expensive Consist solely of chunky pieces No pins or axles Tiny feet Feet have the socket facing the wrong way for maximum posability Head is goofy Claws can't hold things Did I mention these sets are expensive?? I want to get a few more for specific
I am playing with Ben 10 pieces. Nothing serious. I just wanted to see if the torso armour could be used on the Inika build, and look okay. It can.
This isn't a serious MOC, and it's not anything special. I don't have but a handful of odds and ends here in Tulsa, as my collection is at school. Apparently in that handful of parts was an almost-intact Lewa Nuva T9. Now he's been re-adapted for fiery environments. Crazy.
Because why dream about reality?
Dear whomever it was who asked the weather man for snow: We're fighting. I almost died driving home from work in this on Christmas Eve, in the fifty MPH wind. In the dark. If I had died, it would have been your fault. Please make better choices in the future. With love, me.
My best friend John got married yesterday.
We were roommates for two years.
Where did my life go?
That's the only photo I've seen so far. The wedding was yesterday, after all.
I am in this photo! I was the Best Man.
Hey guys, I totally have my first final in a little less than four hours!
Luckily, the next one is Thursday.
But still, less than four hours!
Hooray school!
(Boo.)
I want your loving
I want your revenge
You and me could write a bad romance (Ohh)
I want your loving
All your lovers revenge
You and me could write a bad romance
I wish I could get Lady GaGa out of my head.
Someone wrote me a staff bio on the staff bio page, and it is probably the greatest thing ever written!
For ease of access, here it is, reproduced in all of it's glory:
Now, dear secret admirer:
Who are you? And why do I get the feeling that you're probably super amazing and super sexy+ultrasexy yourself? And I somehow feel as if I love you terribly, and might have spent an hour or two on the phone with you the other day?
BLACK SIX GAVE ME THE PIECES I USED AS WEAPONRY AND MASK ON THE MOC IN THE ENTRY BELOW. I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL AND LOVE HIM A LOT, AND SO SHOULD YOU! HE IS ALSO EXCEPTIONALLY HANDSOME, LADIES, AND QUITE THE FINE CATCH! EVEN WITHOUT HIS CHINSTRAP BEARD! HE HAS YOUTHFUL GOOD LOOKS AND A SENSE OF HUMOUR NOT TO BE RIVALED ANYWHERE OUTSIDE OF BRAD PITT! IN OTHER WORDS, HE IS PRACTICALLY AWESOME IN EVERY WAY!
