So give me coffee and TV, history.: Christian... →
talldarkbishoujo:
So I was thinking about this whole privilege thing, and it occurred to me that Christianity is never really looked at in this way, but—well, in the west at least, and particularly in the US, Christian privilege is alive and well and pernicious in the mainstream culture. It’s…
“I killed all those boys. You just gave Dillard the credit.”
– One of my favorite Law and Orders ever.
Unlike most..
..I don’t dislike the doctor or dentist. The waiting sure, but the actual exam is fine. BUT THIS FUCKING CHILD WONT STOP CRYING.
“(Mother stands up, yells murder accusation!!!!)
(Father stands up, yells murder...”
– Law and Order climax, of course.
Hilarious and on-point. →
Vacation over..
..Two early twenties girls sitting next to us on njtrans. ‘Seecaucus? Is that new york?’ ‘Ooh! New york is next! That’s our stop!’ They’re like the wayans brothers pretending to be white chicks. It’s how you’d impersonate, not real people.
Ouch
Mother and daughter (age of maybe 9) talking to security guard in my complex.
Mother: …And I’ve been losing weight.
Daughter: No she hasn’t. She still has her gut.
I think their animal lists might be my favorite... →
..those or Movies/TV.
There is someone yelling outside..
…can’t tell if it’s agony or ecstasy.
I almost feel bad for Jo-Jo Reyes
But not really.
Fun Oscar quiz →
Interesting stuff considering the anniversary →
This review just makes me giggle the whole time. →
“Can you remember a shortstop batting cleanup?”
– This was followed by “Ripken” and “A-Rod” immediately. Good job, Michael Kay.
Joey Bats
This is like when I used to watch Pedro pitch. You just have to tip your cap.
Informed Instigation: "Loathe and Love." →
Last post for a little while. Should be a fun discussion.
“The Yankees, in other words, are not the Mets, who are playing for...”
"Kim Possible" is trending..
…do people just pick a random thing? Like, srsly?
CHANCE
3/5 days this week have CHANCE of T-storms.
But the chance is only 50% or lower. So is there a 100% chance of rain but only 50% chance it will be heavy? Or is there a 50% chance of no precip whatsoever?
(Ongoing musing in the three week period when I have no schoolwork or teaching to do…)
You know...
…it occurs to me from this annoying subletting process that to some folks, we have a less than desirable living situation.
Hey. We have a really good life over here. We get a breeze from the water, we have a lot of space, a balcony and two bathrooms (which is key!).
But, folks won’t know how much fun it is to live here unless you take the plunge and do so. :)
Here's a tip →
Tool. →
Rapture survivor!
What about you?
Wine in park by water with funny book
Nice afternoon.
Carl Schurz Park
I run past it on my Friday morning jog. It’s a symbol of opulence, mostly, as the mayor lives next door, and it’s in front of both Chapin and Brearley.
But I’m going to go sit there today, because I never have before.
“It helped balance her colon!” “Ooh, now that’s the best part.”
– Watching too many commercials, I am.
Double-Rapture
So I have now been informed that most Christians believe that these folks are sillypants for believing the rapture is tomorrow at 6 pm. They laugh, and then they point out that the Bible says you just won’t know when it will occur at all.
So, they actually believe there will come a point when people will be sucked up into Heaven en masse.
I suppose this shouldn’t surprise me,...
Detective Cassady
Worst Law and Order cop ever. I instantly turn off any episode featuring her.
Wow
Someone was just blasting “Best of Both Worlds.”
Remember when that album was going to be the biggest thing ever and Hot 97 was obsessed with it? I didn’t like it much, and then it flippity-flopped.
I have a structured settlement and I need cash...
Call JG Wentworth! 877-Cash-Now!
“Do I look like someone who would waste my own time?”
It hasn't sunk in yet..
…but it’s always a little emptier TV-wise when I don’t have all my comedies to watch.
Only finales left are House and ModFam.
June is barren. Breaking Bad in July.
"Wrestling Matters Again"
This is an ad campaign for wrestling on Spike.
My rebuttal: No.
Not that it's a guarantee...
…but all three of the Mets’ starters this weekend have higher ERAs than the highest of our three starters this weekend.
Always glad that, by chance, I had fun at yankee stadium when I was four and had a bad night at shea the same year.
I love the sad little saxopohone..
..that YES plays during Rain Delays.
“. “In my country, they speak of a man so virile, so potent, that to spend...”
This is my new theme song. →
Aside from Carlton's uber-serious absurdity..
…the reactions to Will being shot are pretty damn subdued, I must say.
Centerstage tonight:
Jay Mohr doing impressions.
Oh joy.
Informed Instigation: "Gangsta" →
On the Common situation.
“Your litter may contain urine odor. But what about feces?”
– Signs I need to step away from the television
“Intense feminine itch.”
– That’s a new one.
Goobye, Cuddy. →
For the sports fans. →
“Psst…remember that time when some gay people were married and immediately...”
This will be my last sporcle quiz for a while... →
…but I think it’s pretty hilarious.
Just saw an ad...
…for the fourth Pirates movie that called it “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Coupled with Depp’s recent admission that even he didn’t understand 2 and 3, it seems the marketing strategy here is, ‘pretend the sequels never happened, but also, Jack Sparrow, kiddies!’
Informed Instigation: "Quoth The Scholar." →
Quoting something without analysis is fine for humor, but rarely all that profound on its own.
But also: quote things correctly, eh?
In making this snarky romantic comedy quiz...
…it’s really absurd how many of these movies star Heigl, Hudson, Lopez, Aniston, Witherspoon and McConaughey.
I like Reese Witherspoon though.
