the word "douche" just ain't enough
Sometimes, I feel really bad for Megan McCain. She’s not a bad or a dumb person.  She seems, actually, to be pretty self-aware and savvy.  I think, as tends to happen with the kids of politicians, she was put into the limelight a bit too soon and felt that she had to start saying or doing something so as not to be cast as an accessory to her dad’s campaign.  This has given her an...

something i may never understand
Approx. 80% of my female friends, after getting married or engaged, have their own Fantasy Football or Fantasy Baseball team within a year. This is more mysterious to me than reproduction.

an actual footnote from an actual essay i wrote...
 Imagine you have a pie and you have a particularly abstemious friend who has decided that she, after all, will sample some of this pie that everyone else is enjoying so heartily.  So you go to cut her a piece about half the size of a normal slice.  “Smaller,” she says, and so you shuffle the knife to half that size.  “Smaller, really, just a skosh” she says, and so, once again, you move your...

NOT ENOUGH being the correct answer. — I reactivated my emusic account today because it’s a cheap way to get new music, and I finally downloaded both Arcade Fire and Janelle Monae, because THERE ARE TWO SIDES to this hipster posuer! —- Anywho. In addition to this, I almost died twice this week. Monday, I was almost struck by a van that did not notice that, as I was a...

a snippet from the day
Guy passes by our windows.  He is dressed in full on sorcerer regalia — hat, robes, carrying a staff with some sort of glass bulb on top.  Coworker and I are chatting, but we both pause and glance at him as he passes.  He stares into the gym with an intense gaze, then continues walking down Snelling. Coworker: Uh… is there a Renfest near here? Me: Maybe he’s getting his picture...

The whole thing reminds me of an exchange about the seduction community they had on You Look Nice Today.*  Merlin: “You have got to act like you care about chicks less.  Step one: Drop her drink.” Scott: “Remember this handy four-letter acronym:  S.L.A.P.” Things like this make me wish the kind of guys who would follow this advice would dispense with the games and just...

let's get out of this country.
I’m going to the woods for a few days, which is perhaps a good thing because I’m tired of bashing my head against my desk. My primary means of amusement during down moments at work is the New York Times, and while I enjoy it for the most part, somedays it makes me so angry. Or maybe people just make me angry. At any rate, time to go Thoreau-it-up at my own personal Walden. Or start my...
