I want to like this show so badly. I think I’m done though. It’s one of the worst-acted things I’ve ever seen and the plot is a plodding, nonsensical mess. Plus, every minute I watch it makes me really sad that’s it’s not the books, so I think I’m just gonna reread the books.

Pretty sure that’s “rote copying,” not “rogue copying.”

“Gale’s gone rogue! He’s copying everything! IN PEN! Get the SWAT team down here!”

Are we watching the same video, Kelly? From this angle, that thing looks exceptionally bad-ass out of context.

Why are we doing this again? We just went bonkers for this guy’s apartment a couple of months ago, and now we’re doing round 2?

Seeing respectful conversation on the Internet is always a little like watching a monkey use utensils.

It’s not supposed to be a museum of relevant technology. It’s a perfect snapshot of who she is and how she chooses to express herself at this moment.

“But she wouldn’t choose to express herself through Facebook 20 years from now!”

You’re right, probably not, but if you wait to express who you are and do what brings you pleasure until you’re 40, you’re going to live kind of a depressing life.

I just left this on another site regarding this same story: “There are two types of people in the world, those who understand tattoo culture, and those who think every tattoo is, for some reason, an enormous mistake the wearer will someday regret, and each side is equally baffling to the other.”

I have a few tattoos, a full sleeve of robots having the shit exploded out of them by UFOs, some Portal icons, and another that will remain nameless. I regret none and can’t imagine I ever would. Yes, they all hurt. It’s a needle stabbing your skin hundreds of times a second; anyone who says that doesn’t hurt is a liar.

Sunburns have a very high probability of scarring and fading a tattoo. If you get a tat, you’re making a pact with yourself that you will always wear sunscreen if you’re spending more than an hour outside.

The idea that a tattoo needs to be some iconic, totemic image that conjures the very essence of a person’s soul and personality is something that non-tattoo people get wrong a lot. A LOT. Sometimes (most times, I would think) they’re just fun. It’s your body. Why not have fun with it while it lasts?

It was such a let-down for me to realize that not all food in charmingly urban bistros was good and that not all films shown in tiny independent theaters deserved to be there. Still heart you, NYC.

By the fifth movie, poor Ed Helms is going to be an armless, legless trunk they have to carry around in the baby bjorn from the first movie.

This could be reduced to “old!” but even so: this hasn’t been an issue for over seven months. This guy resigned in disgrace over his comments back in November. I mean, yes, he’s still a douchebag, but he’s not exactly a TOPICAL douchebag.

A radio mic is like 50 bucks, lady. Maxing out your Radio Shack Club Card has got to be better than spending 10 hours re-dubbing your creepy vlog.

Yo, Watchmen is outside and it wants its font back.

To be fair, that kid WAS straight retarded, but there’s nicer ways to say it.

Fun fact: they didn’t give a hot god damn about your childhood then either. It was flashing lights designed to get you to buy sugary cereal.

Let’s all take the Hipster Oath to agree to move forward and never again intimate that anyone is raping our childhood.

(pinches nose, sighs)

Gabe? Are you there? Please?

No. Just… no.

Cute kid being a fuck-up explaining airplane safety like a head-trauma case, good. Nauseating little shits spilling treacle all over my screen, bad.

We’ll see who’s retarded when you’re plummeting to the earth in a crystal-covered, tape-wheeled death box and he’s cruising safe and sound to Boca.

Kidding aside, the amount of salt and crystals people have been putting on their airplanes lately has been pretty shocking.

Thank goodness my “New York City apartment!” came with a mini-greenhouse.

WTHF happened? Wasn’t Anne Hathaway supposed to be The Next Big Thing, like… yesterday? Then Bride Wars happened, she showed her tits EVERYwhere, and now it’s slid all the way down here?

I ate vegetarian once and got really sick.

I for one welcome our new robot overlords.

I want to lick parts of you for that.
