Repressed in the Midwest
Yeah, I'm bored. Sorry.
a Whole Lotta Lynxies:
-Really cool "pixelated" serving dishes and plates
-What were the top searches of 2005? I thought it would be Katrina or something....y'know what? The real answer depresses me.
-The 100 best (whoa, almost wrote breast, where's my head?) wines of 2005.
-Nobody reads your blog? Yeah, me neither. Wanna make it look like they do? Well, hire these guys to write fake posts for you. Y'know, you're only cheating yourselves.
-Life imitates art: movie "3-iron" about a man that breaks in and fixes things instead of stealing; actually happened recently in Beijing...except slightly more perverted. (haven't seen 3 iron yet, but the trailers looked really interesting)
-Lolita at 50 - still shocking? Slate.com article about whether this classic novel still is capable of causing a stir. I'm reading it now and like it; unfortunately it's taken a backburner to a million other things.
-Hijinks at my sorta alma-mater: during finals week, two guys dressed up like pac man characters and paraded through the library (UGLi) and computer lab (the fishbowl). Pretty funny, kinda annoying. I got kicked out of the fishbowl for throwing erasers at my friend. He started it. jerk.
-Apparently, humans don't understand mirrors. I read the article...and I guess I don't understand mirrors, either. It makes it sound like "Humans don't understand it" but monkeys, fish, cats, slugs, etc. all understand it and now we're the laughing stock of the animal kingdom...stupid science jerks making us feel bad about ourselves.
-Hey my roommate and I just tried this flashlight photobox...except mine was just holding a piece of printer paper in front of the light....theirs is a little more complex. Did I mention we are morons?
-Are you tired of just balling your napkins up before a meal? Well learn how to fold 'em all fancy-like here.
-Man truly is the king of beasts...the paragon of all animals. A ten bird roast . Gross. I'm gonna become a vegetarian.
-Huh, seems kinda strange to me...Game where you fight a colossal woman....Does that say breast data acquisition?!?!?
-Really love fonts? Yeah, well tell the world that Helvetica kicks Arials ass with these font hoodies.
-Sexiest Geeks of 2005 (not fully sfw). Xeni made it, without a doubt. Huh, imagine that, I'm not on the list. I also like violet's list of podcasts
-Apparently, cock soup is popular....along with Barfy meet patties (which reminds of this site, that has a million hilarious "engrish" products)
-So, as stated before, I love year end lists...yeah, yeah, I know everyone hates them and the same shit is said over and over....but they make me feel superior to the poor schlub that made the list. However, this "best of 2005" list intrigued me cuz I'm not actually sure it's a "best of" lst but may actually be ALL the albums released this year.
-And Pitchfork's top 50!
Solstice
Today kinda blew because I've decided everybody at work is lazy. No, that is not a sweeping statement; you'd totally agree with me if you knew the people at my work.
Though, the funniest statement of the day was "WHAT?!?!? Elton John is GAY?!?"

Self Esteem
bad. So she asks "What the hell is that?" and he explains that it's cold outside and he works outside alot, so the beard helps. And then she says "Okay, I'll accept that" and then she turns to me and asks "So, then what's your excuse?" Thanks boss, that's exactly what I needed.
Links:
.-I hate the Salon.com day pass...I end up just naviagating away; I used to read salon religiously, but I haven't read it in months. Way to go. No link, just thought I'd let you know I hate it.
-This seems like a bad idea...and a great party.
-Cool, I can finally BE Tron.
-Really bad name for soup
Always an Honor Coming from You
What is your problem? Yeah, yeah, I know you specialize in being a jackoff, that's how you get your fame. I'm fine with that. No, what I'm asking is...what is your problem with ME specifically? If you wanna tustle, I'll tustle. But why you gotta mess wid my shit behind my back? You knew I'd hear about. What? Oh, act like you don't know what I'm talking about, wus. First you make fun of my home town last week:
In Saginaw, Michigan, the township opposes red and green clothing on anyone. [Laughing] In Saginaw Township, they basically said, anybody, we don't want you to wear red or green. I would dress up head to toe in red to green if I were in Saginaw, Michigan.
What the hell? Yeah asshat, I would like to see you dressed in red and green prancing around the 'Naw. They ban those colors cuz red and green are gang colors, byotch. Well, no, that's not true....see? I know the difference between fact and fiction. Learn from me, O'Reilly. But then you turn around and insult my current town:
From the December 13 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor. (the followup comments from mediamatters is even funnier)
O'REILLY: All right, well, listen, Jackson, we respect your opinion, but you're dead wrong on this one. Now --
BAIN: Well, maybe.
O'REILLY: -- in the South, Richmond Times[-Dispatch], for example.
BAIN: Right.
O'REILLY: Now, this is a conservative city, Richmond. I mean, this is not Madison, Wisconsin, where you expect those people to be communing with Satan up there in the Madison, Wisconsin, media.
BAIN: Sure.
Um...alright. Neither of these make any sense to me....are you sure you don't smoke crack?

I can just hear "No, your mother was a freakshow when she was younger and thought it would be crazy fun to implant all this fucked up shit under her skin; don't you be like her, little Timmy." Some of the other links are way more disturbing and definitely NSFW.

Rant: You Lost the Bet, Dude
My roommate and I watched a Hungarian movie called "Kontrol", a thriller about transit cops and a series of murders in the subway [spoiler coming]. At the end, one of the characters is running away from the killer and the killer was killed by the train....and my roommate bet the cost of dinner that the killer was the main character's love interest. But the last scene is the main character and the love interest walking out of the terminal. THE KILLER IS DEAD AND THE GIRL WALKS OUT. SHE WAS NOT THE KILLER. YOU LOSE.
Dude you know you totally lost the bet. Why are you in denial?
Yeah, I know it doesn't help that I kept singing "I am the Champion". Sorry. Loser.
Rant: Netflix
You know I like you. But you also know we've been spending alot of time together....maybe too much. And honestly, I think you're getting too personal and sharing too much information. For example, here is a recent email you sent me:
Dear j****,
As someone who enjoyed Intimacy, we thought you'd like to know about A Hole in My Heart.
What the fuck, yo? First of all, I do enjoy intimacy, don't make it all past tense and judgemental....sure, I may not have had "intimacy" in a while, but don't make it seem like I'll never have it again, asshat. And what the fuck's up with telling me about the hole in your heart? I don't want to know your problems, I hardly know you. Is that some goth/masochists way of telling me I broke your heart or something? that's fucked up, dude. You need to stay away from me, Netflix, you got problems.
Rant: Dude in coffee shop
I don't know you but I know I don't like you. And I totally know it was you that just "let one go" and it's disgusting; you really should consider changing your eating habits or something. There is an abundance of open tables here this morning, why did you decide to SIT RIGHT NEXT TO ME? And your jacket stinks too, by the way. And apparently you can read this from where you're sitting and currently are. Oops. See ya.
Rant: Blogger
I first want to say thanks for letting me use this space, it's really nice of you and it helps me vent incoherently. However....yeah, there's always a "however".....However, it seems you have recently become retarded. Yes, yes, I know it's a free service and I should shut my cake hole but really, if you're going to offer a service, you gotta know you're gonna get complaints (This is America, we have the freedom to complain about everything and we're all really whiny, if you hadn't noticed.) Between the multiple reposts of the same item (no, I did NOT hit the publish post button repeatedly), the extraordinary lag-time after posts before they show up sometimes, the repeated loss of connection, and the frequent outtages (and no, my content is NOT objectionable, have you seen the smut on these things? Yeah, well, I only read it cuz I feel like I need to do the research....repeatedly....to make sure that societal standards are upheld and whatnot). You're killing me. Do I have to PAY for decent service? Oh, I do? Right. Well then. Sorry to bother you. Nevermind.

Yep, I'm a Jerk
Anyway....I'm still at work and today was just a crap day. So, instead of whining about, here are some more lynxes that amuse me:
-I think Family Circus is hilarious...and now even moreso when influenced by Chthulo: see it here.
-Sploosh: mentos + sodas = a mess in the kitched. dang
-Make Flipbooks with your videos.
-Blogging with a wooden tongue - Wired article by Momus about "official" blogs
-From Wonkette: tagline "I can't be the only one reminded of spinal tap".
-Best Machine in the Gym? Thank god it ain't the treadmill...You hear me? I hate you treadmill.
-Got time to waste? Here are 74 band names represented in this picture. Good Luck.
-D.C. Pre 1980 - can you see a difference? Oh yeah, all that grift.
-Bike as an iPod battery charger. Pretty Cool.
-Also very cool. Would get this bike jersey if they weren't ridiculously expensive. These, too (helmet covers).
-DIY camera equipment. Rad. Something to waste my time with. More than usual.
-Lo-Fi way to extend your apple airport express: a chinese laddle. brilliant.
-How to make a bow. Wish I had this last week. No, actually, I don't.
-Gross. People use the internet while in the bathroom. But THIS makes more sense then. (Yeah, I only talk to people on the phone while in the bathroom...that is TOTALLY normal)

-Another Trailer Mashup: the Shining and the West side story ones were hilarious, this one's about Big.
-Dang, I knew I shoulda been an artist; scientists have proven that artists get laid more....way to go science for proving the obvious.
-I cannot believe this; I loved this kid in "A Bronx Tale" (DeNiro's directorial debut in the 90's) and it's amazing to me that he's now a cop killer. Oh C, how far you've fallen. Sad.

repentance
Dear Lord,
I know not why I doubted thee. You surely are the creator of the world and this "evolution" MUST be heresy. I realized my error tonight after consuming a jalepeno based product at 0245 AM. Surely, if this "evolution" were true, creatures that make such poor choices, as I do, would have been destroyed long ago. (However, as a counter point, my personality issues have effectively prevented me from making offspring....evolution or cruel god? either way, it's a severely effective form of contraception). Oh Lord, help me hence, please smote this evil reflux!

Fast Women
Petit Morte (NSFW)
-Kiss of death:Very sad: girl with peanut allergy dies after kiss
-Xeni's article about the sex machine's next door....unsung work by inventors that likely won't win the nobel.
-Em and Lo comment on the new monogamy
-Dear Lord. So, if it isn't bad enough that we get international male catalogs, lets hope we don't get on this email list: ridiculous advances in banana hammock technology. And similarly, the LED g-string; why say it, when you can broadcast it on your underwear?
-Response to Maureen Dowd's book "Are Men Necessary"...the only ten words that women need to effectively communicate with men
-This woman will definitely be going to another supermarket from now on; possibly the most embarrassing thing EVAR to happen to someone
-like coffee a little too much? Well, if coffee turns you on....
-Um...unfortunate headline from a novia scotia paper, involving jobs and RIM and whatnot
-Fat Ass: the holiday season always has an increase in copier repairs, often because people break through the copy machine glass with their asses. Geniuses.
-Way to go India: indian actress pelted with objects and arrested for her views on female sexuality. We've come a long way, baby.
-Bad Sex: The guardians yearly bad sex award for crappy sex scenes in literature
-Good Sex: Hot on the heels of the bad sex awards, the times tries to bring dignity back to literature...or at least actually exciting smut.
-Love potion No. 9: new nasal spray causes almost instant arousal; but mostly tested on rats and men....did they really need a spray for that?
-got perv on your gift list? well get one from the best of the sexy gift guide from the Voice
-I can't believe this guy totally stole my byline. From Nerve.

-greedy bastard: virile lion....should be very very sleepy and prolly has herpes FOR SURE.
-Science ruins it again: apparently love fades over time. Explains alot. I'm gonna go cry.
-Patagonia with their new underwear recycling program. Awesome, they raise the bar again. Now i know where to send this

-Nipples: apparently Coco the ape has a nipple fetish; it's okay coco, but i'm more of a leg man.
-Amazon.com: a search for "badonkadonk" gives you a varied and interesting bunch of results

But, what puzzled me was why did she think I worked there? First of all, I had an armload of stuff that I had pulled off the shelves. Not enough context clues? Well how about the bright red sweat pants? No, you're right, target's color are red, coulda been a new uniform. I think the biggest tip off *should* have been the fact that I was wearing a winter coat and hat. And why was she buying coffee at Target anyway?

Slip of the Tongue
More Ranting
The it guy
No, wait, that's wrong; i've never been the "it"guy. I mean to say "IT guy" [information technology] since whenever I go home, I am inundated with gadget-y requests. This time, I made my family write them down and give me their lists....mostly because I was too lazy to actually LISTEN to their requests [I was watching Bring it On, cut me some slack] but also in the hopes that they will see that their requests are ridiculous:
1) My Sister: who is only four years older than me and has to use computers on a daily basis...she should know everything that I know (my actual computer skills are marginal...as evident in this page) but she chooses not to...she's very smart, went to a high powered all women's school but apparently chooses to play the "i'm dumb" card...it kills me. Her list:
a) buy me a digital slr [subtext: I just bought myself a digital slr, she's jealous...she will have one before the end of the year]
b) buy me a new small digital camera [subtext: I bought her a canon sd400 two years ago, she abused it...hard...and now says it's broken...after further investigation, it seems the battery compartment is loose and she has no idea how to sync it to her computer....then I realize that she has lost the cable that attaches the camera to the computer (she doesn't have a card reader)....it's a key step....this is the SECOND time this has happened and the second ADDITIONAL cable I have given to her (three cables total)]
c) tell me how to sync to itunes [subtext: I bought her an iPod last year...LAST YEAR....and she is still struggling to sync it. The question "What happens in itunes when you plug in your ipod?" was met with a blank stare.
d) i have spyware, get rid of it [subtext: I bought and set this computer up last year for her, the firewall and antivirus have since lapsed subscription. Level of difficulty increase: she didn't bring her computer with her]
e) my printer doesn't print right, why?[subtext: she bought a great printer without consulting me, way to go! But it has eight ink cartridges...bad idea for her. I asked her when she changed the cartridges, she said last week. On further questioning, it was over nine months ago. I openly wept.
f) I set up wireless internet, how do I use it? [WTF?!?! How the hell did you do that? [please see above items for reason for disbelief]. Oh, right, "Bob" did it. Your secret boyfriend that you won't tell us is your boyfriend. I get it. You're 3X years old, grow up. And why don't you ask Bob all these dumbass questions?
2) Mom: very new to computers but is picking things up rapidly. It seems her impetus is keeping up with her friends....she cannot fall behind in the war of forwarding your kids stupid articles and jokes. I'll keep hers brief because she actually asked very reasonable questions and thought through possible solutions. Except for:
a) Why isn't the mouse working?[well, there could be a variety of reasons but the most likely is mechanical. You have a very bad habit of putting food down on the mouse pad, now there are crumbs all over the place. Gross. You yell at me for that anywhere else and the rest of your house is spotless, but apparently it's okay for you to do that only right here. Easy solution: stop eating here. Easier solution [and more likely]: get them an optical mouse.]
3) Dad: oh, dear dad. You SO want to learn everything about computers but don't use them at ALL in your daily life (mind boggling). Mom tells me that you fall asleep in front of your computer because you're too tired after work. I have the same problem, except for the fact that I'm lazy. You don't have time to learn how to use them, I understand; but you need to realize that even though you read about it, you don't need to know how to do it.
a) Why does my palm pilot make a beep every five minutes? [well, if you remember, for fun and example during the summer we decided to have an alarm alert you to your daughter's birthday....on October 26th....it's done, you can turn it off now.]
b) How do I print? [I know all the printer settings are confusing and the submenus are annoying; but if you understand how to do these basic things, you'll build your confidence and knowledge base; just keep practicing]
c) How do I type a letter? [hey, that's a good place to start, I'll leave sticky's on the desktop to tell you where to find microsoft word, etc.]
d) How do I make a powerpoint presentation? [ummm, lets start with the letter and practicing the save and print stuff first, okay?]
e) How do you compile a DVD of pictures we have taken so that you can watch it as a slideshow on the TV? [well, it's great that you're ambitious....again, let's work on the saving files, rearranging files, and syncing your palm]
f) Can we set up a repeater using a pringles can to boost our pre-n signal throughout the house? [who have you been talking to?!? stop that right now]
g) Oh yeah, and dad, the reason your battery keeps dying is because you jammed the power cord into the ethernet port; and it makes me wonder how you're able to turn it on at all. You'll never cease to amaze me.
sorry for the rant. It really was great to see my family again, and I'm sure they're already loading up on questions for the next time they see me.
Back on the Grid
Welcome back to your real life everyone. <sigh>
I cannot, for the life of me, get my ass back in gear today. And an out-of-gear ass is the last thing we all need this morning. Adjusting to life after a long weekend off is proving to be difficult. But at least I'm finally "back on the grid" so to speak, since my parent's house was essentially devoid of internet capabilities [note: I did not say it lacked computer capabilities...more whining to follow]....i was in Michigan, NOT Siberia as one would expect....though you wouldn't know that with the snow, and the sub-zero wind chill, and the kossacks and whatnot. I tried to send two emails this weekend....nuthin doin'....I even poked the goat with an extra sharp stick....nope, still couldn't get the modem to work.
Boy, do I have a busy schedule of web surfing to make up for.

Tally
So, I've been better than usual today:
Eat at home: check! Got the reflux to prove it.
Exercise: yup. kinda lazily, but i'll count it
Pics with my new Cam: yep, took picks of my plants...for the fortieth day in a row...hey, the plants are checked, too
Fish have been been fed: filet mignon
Hydrate: only two glasses, gotta pick that up
Blog: you're looking at it
Yeah, things were going great...until I found this....i can't let go of this damn red box.....
