So, I was thinking about the statement I made in my last post, “I was ‘with it’ for approximately two years in the early ’00s,” and, you know, it’s really true. Growing up, I was raised on classy shit. Musically (and cinematically and televisionically) I had limited exposure to what was modern and popular. I listened to the Beatles and the Monkees as a child,...

I think I like the Kaiser Chiefs, you guys.
Is that okay? I don’t even know anymore. I might be six or seven years too late.

Guess who just cut off most of his hair.
It’s me. I did it. I almost went the full Richie Tenenbaum (minus the wrist cutting) but decided to just leave everything heavily trimmed. I don’t think my hair’s ever been this short before. Now my head is cold.

motherjones: In Memphis, March 18, 1968, a few weeks before he was killed in that city: …And I come by here to say that America, too, is going to Hell, if we don’t use her wealth. If America does not use her vast resources of wealth to end poverty, to make it possible for all of God’s children to have the basic necessities of life, she too will go to Hell. I will hear America through her...

– Craig Finn (via synecdoche) This just made me tear up. Can you fucking believe that? A quote from the lead singer of the Hold Steady — I don’t know if I’ve ever even heard a Hold Steady song — on Tumblr nearly made me cry at 28 years of age. This quote literally describes...

You can tell I'm having a bad day
I almost created a “Things My Prostitute Says” Twitter account. It would’ve been filled with things like: “No.” “That’s against the laws of physics. Sorry.” “I thought Dr. Pulaski had more of Dr. McCoy’s curmudgeonly charm.” “Stop crying.” “Are you sure you wouldn’t rather have a man?” “I...

girl-detective: mrsbadcrumble: Listen, I don’t follow pro football anymore, I know nothing about him except what everyone knows - he’s a Christian. If he’s ever said he’s specifically praying for a win, that’s one thing (although we could have a conversation about prayer as energy and a positive force) but as far as I know, no one knows exactly what he’s praying. The fact that he’s a...

So, over the past few days, I’d been planning on starting to work my way through all the James Bond movies for the first time, beginning this weekend with Dr. No. And… Of course… NETFLIX TOOK THEM FUCKING DOWN. THEY WERE THERE EARLIER THIS WEEK AND NOW THEY ARE GONE. THANK YOU SO FUCKING MUCH, NETFLIX. YOU’RE A REAL PAL. I LOVE IT WHEN YOU DO THAT. PLEASE DO THAT MORE...

ADDENDUM
Okay, I should probably clarify that I wasn’t trying to portray John Hodgman as someone whose face is horrendously terrifying or anything of that sort. And, certainly, bookishness is not an unattractive trait, in and of itself. My point was, when one thinks of notably attractive gentlemen, one does not typically find the name “John Hodgman” springing immediately to mind. Also,...

You know...
Minutes ago, while looking at pictures of assorted people (as I am wont to do) the realization occurred to me that most people, generally speaking, are actually quite attractive. Maybe not in a conventional, or “popular,” sense, but when you take a second to really look at someone’s face and really think about it? They’re kind of handsome, or they’re kind of pretty....

My first dream of 2012
Less than 12 hours into 2012, I dreamed that I was a special agent living somewhere in the Carolinas who also happened to be an actor, and I was tasked with capturing a murderer who was likely to be targeting Roseanne Barr next, and so I was assigned to co-star in the movie she was filming there in order to help protect her, and I ended up falling madly in love with her. I woke up feeling strongly...

Year-end observations by a SOBER man on the...
I had wanted to do one of these end-of-the-year reflections posts while sober, but apparently my dear friend alcohol decided that he would have none of that. Now that I’m out of beer, it seems safe to take another stab at it. I know these things are super trite and dumb, but these past few years have been life-changing for me, and I feel like I’d be doing a disservice to myself by not...

You are all beautiful people, even those of you who are dumbasses. I think I gained twenty pounds today. 2011 was a year of challenges and growth, for me. Mom died, which sucks. (I should probably phrase that differently.) But, I’ve grown up a great deal since then. I feel pretty good about how things have gone, all things considered. I credit God with all of it, and I know 95% of you will...
