Sounds like a rare gem

I love my journalism professor, he genuinely dislikes journalism and don’t get him started on bloggers.

huddle and cling
Two of my closest friends have lost their mothers within a week of each other. Yesterday I talked to Martha and sat on the phone with her and we both cried our eyes out and Martha told me about her mother and “do not resuscitate” and how she’s not going back to Portland and her dad and “there were five of us and now there’s only three” and how shit’s all...

dooeytwo replied to your post: You know what’s kind of funny in a “hm” kind of way?
We should open a tattoo parlor. We should INSIST people call us artistes. We should serve ice cream and cookies. I would ask only one question: “Which finger(s) do you want this mustache on?” Out of business in a week but SUCH FUN while it lasts.
OMGYESWENEEDTODOTHISNOW!

Doug talking about the connotations behind...
Doug: there was a park near my apartment in california
and somebody had an obsession with stenciling 'fuck' over every solid surface
I have no hesitation labeling that behavior with a negative connotation
because it's fucking annoying
you're not opening my eyes to the mechanizations of the system, dude
you're being a dick
ya know?

Like 8 people that I graduated with in a class of 150 are tattoo apprentices/artists.
What are the odds of that?

Lil’ idjit. This is my hair after I took it down from its glorious confines. And I talk about tim tams and focus. Or my lack thereof.
What has 2012 been so far?
Some of the people I care about most are going through the worst shit. I want to just hold everybody to my bosom and pat their heads and scratch behind their ears and tell them everything’s going to be alright. Scratching behind ears is a normal, human thing, right?
(I hate this for them so much).
I’m really craving some motherfuckin’ tim tams right now. ME WANT COOKIES.

Thought I was in love before, but in my heart I wanted more. Seems like all I really was doing was waiting for you.

Another Anecdote -- Why I quit playing the cello...
thegoddamazon:
I’m a cellist.
I started playing in 6th grade. By high school, I was playing quite well and had made principle player—or First Chair. Huge deal in the orchestra world.
In high school, the competitiveness in orchestra is confined to skill. I got all perfect scores during the competitions during my solos, and for my senior year, I got an offer for a full ride at Georgia State...

I’m so buzzed it’s stupid how buzzed I am. But yesh. MOAR MONK.
This has been a PSA about the severity of Monk addictions. If you know someone with a Monk addiction, please help them by telling them there are better shows out there.
They may argue, saying “Monk may be formulaic as FUUUUUUU, but the characters and story arc with Trudy keep me watching!”
This is when they...
