In my head I say lolcat as one word. And lolcat pidgin has totally infected my brain.

Ooh, what's the show? That sounds good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's called "I've Got Nothing To Wear." So far, the one guy went through her wardrobe putting stuff in new combinations, and told her what never to wear again, then took her shopping at H&M. Meanwhile, the students are making her new stuff.

La Llorona was the cautionary tale to dissuade kids from trying to swim in the river and irrigation ditches. On the scale of freaking kids out, it's along the lines of Bloody Mary in a dark elementary bathroom: highly effective and nightmare inducing. And now there's a park! Cracks me up again.

Via Boing Boing [link] Really, really bad lawyering ( A real estate lawyer tries act as a copyright attorney to stop a rental service from renting a DVD they bought. Because what the rental service did was completely legal, the lawyer soon descends to making jokes about the owner's height, to challenging the rental service owner to a streetfight, to accusing him of pedophilia ect... )

The links below are multiple blog entries as the lawyer descends further.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've heard of La Llorona before--I fear it was cheesy sci fi. Possibly Mutant X. Heh.

Just watched an episode of Graham Norton. Watched it because Orlando Bloom was appearing, but was totally enchanted by Samantha Morton. She's so fucking regular--it's hysterical. Graham's a hoot. Not a weekly sort of a hoot, but bully for him for making the fun fag image profitable. He's certainly working it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Things Not To Say When Applying For A Job (and this is an exact quote from an interview i sat in on yesterday):

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I've heard of La Llorona before--I fear it was cheesy sci fi. Possibly Mutant X. Heh.

She figures in the Supernatural pilot episode!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Two recent questions/comments from a recent interviewer ( to a 25 yr old - internal interview)

So - with all this on your resume - why haven't you been promoted before. ( real answer should have been look at the dates moron - I just finished the class)

and the best:

Trained monkeys could do this job, I just care about team work. ( ummm... if you think of your team as trained monkeys don't be surprised if they throw feces at you )

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

There is a waiter at the neighborhood wofty pizza place that I need to box up and send to shrift. She'd love him and make him sleep with other hot boys and he'd love that, it's totally win/win.

Context? If you insist. meara (I CAN HAS meara?) and I grabbed dinner there.

But the point is? shrift should totally have this guy.
