February 2012
I'm so out of touch with music nowadays.
I’d heard of Bon Iver (on tumblr, naturally), and this whole time thought it was a dude named Bon Iver. Like Bahn Eye-ver. And now we’re watching SNL and it’s a band. And it’s pronounced like the French bon hiver.
I’m terribly un-hip.
(Oh, I just wiki’d it and it is, in fact, from bon hiver. Go me and my limited French!)

“Teenage girls, please don’t worry about being super popular in high school, or being the best actress in high school, or the best athlete. Not only do people not care about any of that the second you graduate, but when you get older, if you reference your successes in high school too much, it actually makes you look kind of pitiful, like some babbling old Tennessee Williams character...
How to get trashed by halftime:
Drink once for every: 1) movie trailer 2) car commercial 3) totally unfunny normal-seeming commercial not worthy of a superbowl airing.
I know way too many Patriots fans.
This is unfortunate.
It's National Weather Person's Day
I decided to leave my meteorology job last year after four years of crappy shiftwork. So what, who cares?
I’ll always still be a “weather person”, as will Katie, because after college work like this, ain’t no one taking that title away from us.

The "Mousekears" debacle has been settled

It is what they used to call them way back in the day on the Mickey Mouse Club show. The word sounds weird (and I prefer to say Ear Hats or Mouse Ears), but there you have it.
I have to admit I don’t like saying Mousekears either. I prefer simply Mouse ears.

And you just smile because you’ve known that for at least a year thanks to DeadPresidents.
Dearest Readers,
Posts like this make my day.
Love, Anthony
I don't care that it's wrong:
I can’t not double-space after a period. I’ve tried, after being taught in middle school to always double-space following a period, to do it the ‘right’ way and single space. It doesn’t even look good.

I'm super bored. Let's play a game.

Who was your favorite Babysitters Club member and why?
Mine was Claudia. She hated eating healthy, was a free spirit, and had the freshest clothes (fresh = totally a BSC buzzword)
My least favorite was Mallory because she was frankly too young to babysit and none of her storylines interested me worth a damn. Give me Stacey the Diabetic and Bicoastal Dawn any day.
My God...

blërg.: How to Search Your Tumblr and Actually... →
blerg:
Google “Search Term site:username.tumblr.com” (or site:domain-where-your-tumblr-is-hosted.com). Example.
I’ve been doing this for awhile, but I get the idea from how often others on my dashboard complain about Tumblr’s non-functional search that a lot of people don’t know or use this…
Reblogging because I didn’t know this and I think people should!

i have to do work later for RB, but until then I think the couch thing is a solid plan.

It’s sad how Wile E. Coyote is remembered for his violence, and not for his brilliantly realistic paintings of tunnels.

The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it.
