I want to make one! have each clip be a clickable video beside the song selection. OR, or make a video for all my favorite songs, or for a given playlist so it plays as a visualizer. Ok that is a bit too much. I'll stick with the visual jukebox
my cell consistently suggest 'atones' when I am trying to type 'bummer'. I don't really talk about atoning much, particularly not in my texts, and in the 3rd person singular.
Said cell also just suggested 'fart' while I was trying to type 'earth'. That one is a little more understandable.
I have a list of these little gems, send me good ones!
From McSweeney's:
Respectful Yo Mama Jokes
Yo mama is so healthy her BMI is probably exactly within the ideal range for a woman her age.
Yo mama is so well respected within her profession that I bet she'll get another raise and promotion this year despite the downward trajectory of the economy.
Yo mama is so good at cooking she should open her own restaurant. I'd be the first customer.
Yo mama is so attractive she could be on the cover of Prevention.
Yo mama is so Internet-savvy she should start her own social-networking site designed specifically for moms. It would be really popular.
Yo mama is so well read she could teach a course on literature at an accredited university.
Yo mama is so good at listening she makes you feel like she's put everything aside to focus all her attention on you. That's a really great trait to have.
Yo mama is so skilled at coaching basketball she should apply for a job in the WNBA.
Yo mama is so generous she just paid for everyone's meal at Applebee's.
Yo mama is so supportive of you and your efforts that I wouldn't be surprised if you were incredibly successful as a result.
this weekend E and I saw a man working on his car. The car was a brown hatchback from the seventies, and if he was a car, he'd be that one. There was a bucket already full and catching more (transmission?) fluid. He smoked while he worked. This morning the car was surrounded by two firetrucks and a towtruck. A woman in her bathrobe stood at the curb. I didn't get a glimpse of the car.
wonder how that story fills in.
I thought this song couldn't have more good vibes than it already does. Then I spent the weekend dancing to it with E
my DIY to-go container that consisted of pouring champagne into an empty beer bottle was not as clever as I initially thought
seen on a travel agency sign:
"A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving" -Lao Tzu
that sounds like a pretty solid argument against having a travel agent. haha, they lose.
Old Lao (Taoist extraordinaire) was also the dude that that came up with that heavily abused quote:
"the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
I guess it's true, but inspirational posters, forwards and 7 Habits lovers everywhere have pretty much made it vile. In that way, Lao Tzu is sort of like a Chinese Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson has some decent ideas, but he is also the schmuck behind this cheeseball:
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us"
puke.
buuut he also said this gem:
"Children are all foreigners"
I've been feeling that a lot lately.
