WHATTHEBALLS? <teenagerant> Dear Mom, How do you not understand that when you close the lid on my laptop, it goes to sleep and therefore breaks the internet connection? The internet here right now is BALLS SLOW so you essentially ruined my afternoon by disrupting my connection with megavideo and now The West Wing won’t load. THANKS. </teenagerant> I’ll be home around...

I saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button...
robyn-sparkles: Benjamin Button had no personality. Note to writers: just as being clumsy isn’t a character flaw, aging backwards isn’t a personality trait. Um, Robyn, clearly you forget that clumsiness is a character flaw. I mean, BELLA ISN’T A MARY SUE!

spacejam: I hate exhausting all my tv in concentrated periods of time.  I’m almost done HIMYM season 4, there are no new Desperate Housewives for a while, and it seems like ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IS ON REAL TELEVISION. It seems all I really want lately is to grab a pillow, watch NPH, eat, and maybe read. (AND TO TOP IT OFF, the last episode of Futurama is the only thing I’ve found on TV that’s...

The Duality of Bad Math
alexewing: You see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. “Wait,” you think. “Isn’t Daisy thirty-one right now? Why is she acting and referring to herself as being in her early twenties?” You realize this could have been averted with five seconds of forethought. You go to a closing entertainment store, and see a brand new movie for $30. As everything is 50% off, the advertised sale price is...

Male Birth Control Pill Soon a Reality →
“It is time for men to have some control. I think it would empower men and deter some women out there from their nefarious plans,” says Brown. “Some women are out there to use men to get pregnant. This could deter women from doing this. An athlete or a singer is someone who could be a target and they could put a stop to that.” AW SHUCKS. Someone figured out my life-long goal of trapping Michael...

My mom seems to forget that it only takes me 5 minutes to wake up, get dressed, and brush my teeth. On vacations she loves telling me that everyone is waiting for me. LIES.

I am in Provo, Utah right now.
Provo was the first place I lived in the U.S. I came here when I was 4 and moved around Utah till 4th grade when we moved to Indiana. I wouldn’t go as far to call Provo my home. I’ve lived on the Main Line since 2000 and made my best friends there. Suburban Philadelphia is my home. But it’s interesting to be back here. Provo is a college city—home to BYU, where my mom got...

Why didn't I download more episodes of the West...
I downloaded enough to last me through two days without internet access. Now the internet connection I have doesn’t seem to be allowing me to stream/download enough to last me through Monday. BOO.

Kay (my 11 year old brother): Do eyes use pixels?
Me: For what?
Kay: For looking?
Me: NO.
Kay: Then what do eyes use to see things?
Me: The retina.
Kay: Oh--do retinas use pixels?
Me: NO.

spacejam: robyn-sparkles: spacejam: Dear Kids That Live In My Neighborhood, Egging my house on Christmas Eve was hilarious (egg-nog reference, anyone?), but you made me (and my father) clean RANCID, PUTRID, RAW EGG that has been ACCUMULATING for MONTHS on my deck.  And you made me miss the first part of the Top Chef Holiday Special, which I have been looking forward to for a LONG TIME.

alexewing: You know, Disney relies on spontaneous dancing in too many of its Original Movies: Smart House, The Other Me, High School Musical… this is definitely going to be one of those themes on that new DCOM list, whenever it gets made. Agreed. Let’s work on this when I get back. Seriously. You’ll bring your lappy over and we’ll decide what to do.

Only second to my Dad running into a parked cargo...
While driving two friends home 20 mins ago we experienced TERRIBLE black ice. I’ve never experienced something so bad. Luckily no one was hurt. But for some reason it rained sometime after midnight and covered the streets in a thick sheet of ice. While driving under 10 mph on a stretch of a street that usually takes 1.5 minutes to drive, I luckily was able to stop my car from hitting a pole,...

Grievance #1 - Birthday on Christmas Day
onemoretimewithfeeling: No, I’m not upset for people that have a birthday on Chrstmas Day, I’m irritated by them. First of all, it doesn’t seem that rare to me because everyone with a birthday on Christmas talks about it all the time. Rarely do you hear someone mention a June 6 birthday, and discuss it ad nauseum. Yes, I’m sure it sucks that you only get one day a year for all your gifts. My...
