real hardcore/emo/emocore/whatevercore...
there will never be a better “emo” band than Saetia. ever.
saetia - “venus and bacchus”
things I will never understand

stupidinboston:
women
hypocrisy
my parents
uber-baggy jeans
twitter
you
me
us
my inability to express my feelings properly
your inability to give me a straight answer
hormones
purses
over-analyzing every word and action
I think i understand #13, but i agree with the other twelve
and suddenly, i realized: i am not alone. though i’m pretty sure i ‘get’...
poopsocking
Defacating into a sock in order to avoid having to get up from your computer to use the toilet. Often utilized when playing online role playing games.
John was poopsocking all the way to level 60 this weekend.
it had been a while since i heard/read this term, and upon rediscovering its true meaning i just had to share.

Fat guy dives through a kiddie-tube. Someone please explain the physics of this to me.
HA HA HA
wat?
my international affairs teacher just defended palin’s lack of knowledge on the bush doctrine in the middle of a lecture.
“you may mock her, but do YOU know what the bush doctrine is?”
“if they asked me that question i would have the same response ‘what do you mean?’ because the bush doctrine has changed so much over the years”
not looking good
the predators are already losing to the likes of atlanta and columbus. granted, it’s still super early and they’re trying to give their new rookie goalie some play time before the regular season starts, but it does not bode well. faaaaaang fingersssss!!!
planisphere
so i’ve been slow with the music blogs the past couple of weeks. exciting things happening in real life + the release of WAR kept me from staying on top of my game.
the point is: i just today got around to truly listening to justice’s “planisphere” 4 parter that broke the scene about 7.5 blog years ago. and per usual, the frenchmen are all over it. the last 5 minutes are...
"guitars and violent movies!"
ohmigodthistrackisamazing! just found it on one of my bi-weekly music blog scans.
imagine if HORSE: the band decided to tone down the vocals and slip in a bit of electro synth. it definitely isn’t club-made electro-house, but it’s more banger than indie rock. if all of their tracks are of the same vein, i have just found my new favourite band.
art vs science -...
it goes down tonight
guaranteed to make you dance.
afterparty will be almost as good as the show itself: computer club, le castle vania, rrrump, and basick

MagLev Toy Train
You’ve simply got to watch this entire video of a model Maglev train that’s powered by liquid nitrogen. It gets colder than 183 degrees C (361.4 degrees F) and encounters no resistance. Give it a push on a track and it’ll fly around it perfectly until the liquid nitrogen runs out. I just find it fascinating to watch a model train hover around a track 6mm above it....

Political Issues that Matter for 2008 →
in the 7th grade i was pissing off my uptight teachers by going to school with a huge Nader sticker on my folder (courtesy of my sister). little did i know that two elections later i’d be just as convinced as my sister.

ALSO: how hilarious would it be if i got a preds tattoo to match my braves tattoo? reppin’ both my hometowns at once. having a sabretooth tiger on my body would definitely stop me from taking myself too seriously (which is always important).

i just got a wrong number call from ADT security systems. unfortunately, i lack the balls to send a swat team to someone else’s unsuspecting house. i suppose they would come after me shortly there after anyway.
