    oops I already did.

    and on that I'm out. hope to be back later, if this hotel room has internet access as they seem to want me to think they do.

    (nothing exciting... little something we in this part of America call the Jersey Shore. It's an offensive and disgusting mess, but it's our offensive and disgusting mess.)

    yes, two... they've done The Humans Are Dead and Boom (as far as songs), and a few others that I hadn't heard before. I think there were four songs the first week, and 2 the second.

    a friend of mine is telling me he loves the show, and I really didn't expect him to so I was all excited that he had good taste on something... and then I mention one of the songs and he says "Oh, I fast forward through the songs".

    ...

    ... Is he sick in the head?

    he must be. I don't even understand what he could mean. or that he somehow thought the entire point of the show was something besides the songs.

    not that the show isn't great by itself. some fantastic dry awkward humor going on there. and as I said the other day, absolutely my favorite parody music writing ever. they capture styles really well, the 80s style song in the second episode is outstanding.

    edit - seriously gone this time. later.

    Haha that is one of my favourite jokes.

    I wanna tell her how hot she is but she'll think I'm sexist.

    She's so hot she's making me sexist

    Bitch


    Mainly it's because they say suxist every time.

    Yeah, that scene got me Coke in my nose. :lol:

My dad and I watch netflix movies with her on a fairly regular basis (although he's on his laptop playing WoW while we are doing so), and I watch some T.V with her, such as house.

    I wish it weren't summer. Even that early, there'll probably be plenty of kids.
    More cinemas need 18 and over only screens, possibly they could serve compulsory shots at the door or something to make sure it is actually enforced. Nothing is worse than trying to watch a film when there are half a dozen fourteen year olds in there with you just chatting.

    Given the nature of the movie, I'm more concerned about 3-to-10-year-olds.

    Personally, if only one of my parents is going to go do something in the master bedroom, I just say his/her bedroom, depending on which it is. But that's just me, our expirerooster friend may in fact have parents with separate bedrooms.

    Meh.

    Anybody who gets an iPhone at this juncture is either stupid or rich, as far as I'm concerned.

    ...sort of like the PS3, actually, although I think there's somewhat more justification for spending $600 on a game system than on a fucking cellphone.

    My roomie's best friend gets to take her dog to work every day! It's gotten to the point where her coworkers love the dog and spoil it so much, they really wouldn't care if she showed up. She could just drop the dog off for the day and head back to bed, I think.

    New area, he's nervous, he wants more attention, such as one of the dog biscuits I brought in with me. He's settling down.

    And Andrew_Jay, my apartment is being fumigated or whatever by the management and I didn't feel like paying for a kennel or finding someone to look after him today, so here he is.

    New episodes were reported multiple places, and they're due in '08 on Comedy Central.

    I just hope it doesn't go the Family Guy route. It's sort of bittersweet - Futurama ended perfectly with the opera episode (easily my favorite) so there's huge potential for it to just suck. I keep hoping Groening doesn't fuck it up.

    I think I just upset my mother. First thing she says to me whe I get up in the morning is "why are you so lazy?! Get out of bed for christ sake!" and then "You better be up ready and showered before you're brother gets home."

    Not really that bad of course accept that she does this every single morning minus the brother part. Even though it's summer and i've been doing everything she asks me to every day. She's been shouting at me that i'm lazy and need to look for a job even though i've applied for at least two jobs pretty much every day i've been home. (I come home from my Uni exams later than other Uni students so it's normally a little bit more of a bastard to get a job.)

    So... I ended up saying "i'm beginning to dislike you." I feel harsh about it but she's said worse to me in the past , and then she looks at me like i've just told her that I killed a man or something and starts a massive arguement that i'm really not awake enough to be involved in.

    I never know how to act around that woman even though she'll try to start an arguement with me at any chance she gets I just can't stop myself arguing back even though she's been doing it since I was about six.

    I've learned not to argue with my parents. Just sit back and let them talk, nod along and contribute the occasional "yes... un-hun... you're right... yeah...". It'll be over sooner that way, then I can go and do whatever I want anyway.

    My roomie is super-jealous. She really wishes she could take her dog to work every day. I think it would be kind of neat, too. Except, then I remember that Toby's afraid of everything and think it's a good idea he stays at home.

    That's what I should do, but I just can't seem to help myself. After years of me agreeing with whatever she says as if it's gospel and letting her tell me what to do and that i'm crap at everything and lazy i've just come to a point where I can stand up to myself. I think I may have even gotten worse with arguing back since I started doing it when I was about seventeen. The one line she brings out every now and then which really gets me and she knows to use if i'm not arguing back is "you're brothers were never like this" or "you're brothers didn't act like that/ do badly at that/ do that"

    I'm doing an Oboro and venting I kow but she's just shouted at me then gone to walk the dog acting as if anything that's gone wrong in the world is my fault. I really have no idea any more.

    I stayed at college the summers after my junior and senior year. This was among the best decisions I have ever made; plus, since a lot of people do go home, it's easier to get a job on/around campus. Or so I've found.

    You could always 'just happen' to take a summer course or something. That'd more or less cut down your time at home from break to 1 month instead of 3.
