I'm Going for Funny

I know it is lame to post links when you know basic HTML and even if you didn't, Blogger will basically do it for you. But, you know what, YOU'RE LAME.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YES

Get Showtime or start downloading shows or something because Showtime is fucking amazing.
Here is what you should be watching:
Bullshit
Weeds (starting again in June)
This American Life

"The Secret" Crap

So I was reading on Something Awful about The Secret and all that Oprah crap (I think she is a horrible human being for promoting this shit). The thing is, I totally believe that people that have a happier outlook are happier and do better. The example I read a long time ago was something along these lines:
Two guys are mowing their lawns at the same time. Both men notice it is going to rain. One guy gets angry about how every time he goes to mow his lawn something ruins it and he puts his mower away. The other guy decided to mow a little quicker to get done before the rain comes. He does and his freshly mowed lawn gets watered. He is happy because he finished his chore and got a little reward.
But I don't think that positive thinking manifests itself materially. That is shit. You can't think things into existence. And the second guy didn't get a nice lawn because he fucking willed it into existence. He got a nice lawn because instead of acting like a fucking asshole and blaming the world for his problems, he buckled down and GOT SHIT DONE. So yeah, that is my take on this whole thing.

M.I.A. - Galang

See? I promised some happiness.

Interpol - C'mere

You know it is bad when on my birthday, I am listening to Interpol. Not exactly the happiest band. But fuck that. I have some happiness coming later.

French AIDS PSA About a Lonely Girl

The French make by far the best PSAs. Nothing has ever made using a condom cooler.

GIFTS!

So this weekend begins birthday week (even though I was hoping to postpone it until Monday, it appears it will start Saturday). Remember, homemade food and homemade cards. I don't need anything else.

Broken Social Scene - Almost Crimes

This song is the best song I have ever heard live. I would go almost anywhere to see BSS again.

Dizzee Rascal - Dream

Cleanness - Sauberkeit

Best Story on SomethingAwful Today

"I was fucking this one girl, and things were going well, she was into it and making noise, until I wanted to switch to doggy style. At that point she went stone cold silent, and just kind of layed there. I asked if she was enjoying it, and she replied "no, I was raped like this once."

Yeaaaaah, we changed positions after that."

I'M CONFUSED

I have no idea what time it is right now because I don't understand daylight saving time. I know it starts today and that according to the atomic clock it is 8:30, but I went to bed early last night (because I am old) and now I am awake and I don't know if I woke up at 7:30 or 9:30. It was 7:30 right?
I went shopping yesterday. I bought pants and earrings. Here's this thing. My birthday is coming up quickly. For my birthday, I want homemade birthday cards and food (also homemade).

Adorable

This is from Urban Outfitters, but I promise to find more cuteness from somewhere else soon.

I'm From Barcelona - Treehouse

If they ever come to the United States, I am going to see them.

A song for you

WE MUST WE MUST
WE MUST INCREASE OUR BUST
THE BIGGER THE BETTER
THE TIGHTER THE SWEATER
THE BOYS ARE COUNTING ON US!

You should be excited.
