It's Only Fair

If Joe the Plumber gets tax breaks, so should Bob the Builder. Just sayin'.




Specs

So, apparently I don't sleep anymore. Anyways, I got these new specs, and every inch of me wants to wear them all the time -- ironically. Of course. Never without a speck of irony.



This is What Twitter Is For

So I've been trying to sell everyone on the whole Twitter thing, because I feel like a loser with no internet friends. I keep running across this Twitter, from "Michael Bay". Every day it gets better and better.





Seriously, go. My favorite? "I've decided to change the title to 'Friday the 12th: Revenge of Tomorrow'."

How could you not love that?

Robocop on a Unicorn

Only the internet could bring us an amazing photo set on flickr like this: Robocop on a Unicorn.

Or this mildly disturbing photo, which essentially destroyed my childhood after one glance:

I actually kind of love that someone broke out the watercolors in order to make that.

"Say A Command"

What is it about the voice dialing feature on cell phones that just make you want to swear? I always find myself hitting the button by accident and then yelling, “shit! fuck! cock!” into my phone to see who it thinks I’m calling.

Work Schmerk

Ah, the life of the Underworked and the Underutilized:

Mike: so what's on the docket for you today, Whitty?
Me: Hmmm
writing new blog posts
editing a site that I'm helping out with
shuffling some papers around on my desk
watching project runway
hiding projects I haven't done in drawers
mickles1013: radical
busy!
Mike: I’m sitting on a chair and thinking about eating cereal
me: oh, what kind?

We need real jobs.

Upside Down Dogs

I check I Can Has Cheezburger like two, maybe three times a day. It never fails to make my mood better -- I can hear their little cat voices and strange grammar in my head when I read the captions, really. (That is sad, but what's a blog without self disclosure, right?) But! I think that I’ve found an even better internet meme to occupy my time. These, my friends, are upside-down dogs.


Boxcars

So I guess I am going to the Red Bull Soapbox race in Denver next weekend – sounds fun. I’ve been making a concerted effort to do different things that I normally wouldn’t do – I’ve been spending time in coffee shops, at the park, at the Lyric, all places I never really went before. I’m just finding so many things to do instead of lay around and watch stuff like Felicity with my roommates like I used to.


Anyways, since I've divulged this information, no one go there and kill me, okay?
