I just went through the 85 tracks and generously counted those which I could be genuinely excited about (if I were planning on buying the game; the husband might want to buy it eventually). I counted exactly 9.
Though of course I have a vested interest in the Beatles and want them to come out on top, it will be interesting indeed who will win the battle all the same.
haha, I...

FOR the female half of the population, it may bring a satisfied smile. Scientists have found that evolution is driving women to become ever more beautiful, while men remain as aesthetically unappealing as their caveman ancestors.
but does this statement not assume there is some kind of empirical standard for what is “beautiful”? odd.

the funny thing is I remember liking all this stuff too (especially Desmond! omg Desmond, that’s like the worst thing about starting from the beginning is that I have to wait for him to show up and be awesome and hot at the same time!), as well as a bunch of other stuff, like Eko’s backstory (which, nice change from HEY DID YOU KNOW JACK HAS DADDY ISSUES?

It feels good to be understood. You voice my thoughts. When are we going to start such groups in France?

For some reason beyond my comprehension, my brother — also known as 10 Years Behind Boy — wants the Matchbox Twenty CD “Yourself or Someone Like You” for his birthday.
I added it to my Amazon shopping cart, and it came up with the following recommendations:

1) Really limp in terms of a “blogsecret.” This is a secret? Why? And how?
2) Are you for real? Hate? Strong word. Does this action really hurt you that much???
3) It’s Tumblr. It’s not the Louvre. Not saying it’s right. Saying it’s part of the mechanism. You sound like an artist who is upset over your own work getting passed on. As an artist myself, I’ll...

shadowofthebridge:
“Quote” is the verb; “quotation” is the noun. You don’t have a list of “quotes.” You have a list of “quotations.” You quote a quotation.
Yes, I realize that it is ridiculous that I even care to make the distinction these days, but I still do anyway.
This used to bug me but then I slowly found myself using the wrong word and now I can’t switch back!! Why me?!

For those who have been keeping up with me on twitter, you know that I’ve been on a seemingly losing battle to watch Twelfth Night for Shakespeare in the Park for about a week now. (I’ve also been trying to get tickets to HAIR during that time, also a losing battle.) My sister and I have yet to find a winning strategy, but at least you all can feel some of my pain by reading this and...
