Just Sayin'

So, last night my roommate and I went grocery shopping for the first time in about a month. What were we eating for that month we didn't go grocery shopping you may ask? Mostly Chinese food and chocolate milk. Anyway, someone told us that if you eat Chinese take out more than three times a week, you have a problem, so we decided to go grocery shopping. You know, like grownups. Anyway, when you don't go grocery shopping in a month, the supermarket becomes this magical place where you can find all sorts of exotic foods you didn't even know existed, like lettuce and canned tuna. Because of this, I've decided to write a short play about our experiences in the mystical land of grocery store. You're welcome. *** Scene 1: The Empty Refrigerator Enter two roommates. They are in the kitchen of their apartment, looking in the refrigerator. Roommate 1: How is it possible that we have no food? Roommate 2: We don't have no food. Look, there's some soy sauce.....

So, I don't know if you've noticed this, but Arial is the default font for like everything . This is a problem for me, because I hate Arial. I mean, I really hate it. Like, I like black licorice more than I like Arial and black licorice makes me gag. I mean, that's probably why I like Blogger so much; it doesn't use Arial. I can't stand Arial; It's so round and obtrusive. The problem is that there are so many things written in so many different fonts (and a lot of things written in Arial, frustratingly) on the Internet. So every time you think you've escaped every thing that uses Arial it pops up out of nowhere and attacks you - like that giant alligator in that movie about that giant alligator who lived in a lake and ate cows. Now, I know that all of this mean literally nothing to most of the people who are going to read this blog (especially the part about the alligator). But, as someone who writes a lot, I can tell you that a good font means a lot. T...

So, this semester I decided to take a sociology class. Let me preface this by saying that this is the most ridiculous class I've ever been in, mostly because instead of learning about sociology, our professor just talks about why Jay-Z's lyrics confuse him and gives impromptu lectures on physics. Continuing in that vein, the other day our teacher was trying to make a point about how difficult it is to gather empirical evidence and the way he chose to illustrate this was by asking us a multiple choice question about the moon. Basically he showed us two pictures of the phases of the moon, one with the phases progressing from left to right, then right to left and vice-versa and asked us which one was right. I thought about that for a minute, then answered option C, which was "it doesn't matter". Out of all the ways to illustrate how much people don't pay attention to the world around them, he had to ask about the moon . Facepalm. Now, there's obviously ...

So, the other day I heard someone listening to the song 'What Does the Fox Say'. Now, this song annoys me on a number of levels, but the most irritating thing about this song is that they never come to a consensus about what the fox says. I mean, what is the point of a song called 'What Does the Fox Say' if you never actually find out what it says? It's so annoying! So, after some reflection, I decided that it was time to actually find out what the fox says. So I decided to conduct an interview with a local fox and get his thoughts on the issue. This is what he had to say: *** Me: All right, let's get right to the heart of things. What do you think of the song 'What Does the Fox Say'? Mr. Fox: What do I think of it? What do I think of it? I don't know what to think! I mean, they make me sound like a total moron! I'm considering suing for libel. Like, ' ring-ding-ding '? I don't even know what that means! I can't even show ...
