JESUS CHRIST;

Music: Let's See It - We Are Scientists

you know how sometimes you come across some random thing on the internet that you know is not actually that funny, but for some reason it is like the funniest thing you have ever seen?

no?

well that shit happens to me on occasion. 

and for some reason i can't even look at this without bursting into a fit of hysterical laughter.

i am 100% serious, y'all. 

after i saw it the first time and laughed and laughed and laughed, i went to take a shower

but i had to sit down on the way there for literally 15 minutes because i could not stand up from laughing so hard.

i thought about it during 1st period today and could barely restrain myself DURING A LECTURE. 

at lunch i was talking to a friend about it and ended up, no joke, laughing for another 15 minutes just thinking about it. 

I KNOW IT'S NOT THAT FUNNY.

i just can't control myself around this shit for some reason.

it's just so...

EXTREME. 

and you seriously have to picture that ugly motherfucker from the commercial like yelling into the camera.

OKAY i just looked at it again just now when i was linking to it and IT IS STILL FUNNY. 

this shit

is 

straight up

GAYVILLE, USA, YOU GUYS.

seriously.

GOD. 

PS:

family drama.

music: Franz Ferdinand - What She Came For

This is Spooky. He and his wife, Yoko, have been together for many tense, hostile, unhappy years. Spooky is often depressed and spends most of his time out drinking, away from his hellish homelife. He and Yoko avoid each other all they can, but when they do eventually confront one another, it usually ends in violence, tears and raised voices. Spooky wants to know why that dumb bitch Yoko hasn't made dinner or done the fucking laundry in 3 days and Yoko wants to know why emotionally unavailable Spooky hasn't touched her in God knows how long. After these squabbles, Spooky usually goes to the bar and hits on young college girls before stumbling home, blind drunk, at 3 in the morning. 

This is Yoko. She and Spooky were married when they were teenagers. It was a shotgun wedding due to an accidental pregnancy which ended in a miscarriage, and she and Spooky have never been happy together, but divorce was never an option, due mostly to Yoko's very strict, religious family and her father's violent tendencies. Now, after many years together, she and Spooky both know that they are too old to start new, seperate lives, and staying married just seems to be the easiest, cheapest option at this point. Yoko is as unhappy with the marriage as Spooky is, and would be extremely depressed about the way her life has turned out, but she suppresses these feelings with martinis, soap operas and painkillers. 

This is Avalanche. He is Yoko's younger brother and lives with the couple in their suburban home. Avalanche is unemployed and lives off of his disability check, which he receives as a result of a "back injury" from his job as a construction worker. He lost his license due to one too many DUI's and now only leaves the house to crash frat parties, where he drinks half the keg by himself and usually ends up passed out on the lawn with his pants unbuttoned and his shirt missing. Avalanche generally spends his days on the couch, watching Court TV and drinking Amstel Light.

music: Kaiser Chiefs - Like it Too Much


basically i am deathly ill,
so i've been watching movies and/or complaining and eating ice cream all day.
i also made a mix CD for my car and e-mailed my law teacher (my least favorite class at this point, by the way).

anyway have you heard of Gavin Friday?
because i had not, but apparently he was in and/or did music for Breakfast on Pluto, Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge! and Basquiat, all absolutely fantastic movies.

my dad was listening to the song that he sings on the tour bus to cillian murphy in Breakfast on Pluto (as performed by a different artist, obv) and so i looked up the movie on IMDB to ask if my dad had ever heard of this guy because i remembered hearing that they cast an actual musician in that part rather than an actor and it turns out that this guy is like the coolest person ever.

also i have been reading this blog here for quite some time.
this girl is pretty much a genius, particularly
here
here
and in all of these pictures.

a friend of mine was the victim of a hate crime.
he was walking to school and heard someone say "hey," behind him.
when he turned around, the guy hit him in the face with a brick and ran.
we can only assume it's because he is middle eastern.
right now he is in the hospital with a probably-broken jaw and a split lip.

this is ridiculous.
honestly.
in this day and age?

i can't even comprehend.
