Rumor Has It - Adele
“swearing is a really important part of one’s life. it would be impossible to imagine going through life without swearing, and without enjoying swearing. there used to be mad, silly, prissy people who used to say swearing was a sign of a poor vocabulary. it is such utter nonsense. the people i know who swear the most tend to have the widest vocabularies, and the kind of person who says swearing is a sign of a poor vocabulary usually have a poor vocabulary themselves. the sort of twee person who thinks swearing is in any way a sign of a lack of education or a lack of verbal interest is just a fucking lunatic. i haven’t met anybody who’s truly shocked at swearing… really. they’re only shocked on behalf of other people. well, you know, that’s preposterous. or they say, “it’s not necessary,” as if that should stop one doing it. it’s not necessary to have coloured socks, it’s not necessary for this cushion to be here, but is anyone going to write in and say, “i was shocked to see that cushion there, it really wasn’t necessary”? no. things not being necessary is what makes life interesting. the little extras in life.”

Everytime.
Jen & I would meet up on summer nights and sing this at the top of our lungs, driving around on dewey summer roads. I remember she can always out sing me. but, I think I hold my own for enthusiasm.
OOH. Good cover.

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence - Ryuichi Sakamoto
Such a romantic song, it’s an auditory story filled with such purpose and inspiration.
“Minimalism is not a style, it is an attitude, a way of being. It’s a fundamental reaction against noise, visual noise, disorder, vulgarity. Minimalism is the pursuit of the essence of things, not the appearance.”

“I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch but one. An inch - it is small and it is fragile, and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. I hope that, whoever you are, you escape this place. I hope that the world turns and that things get better. But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you, I love you. With all my heart, I love you.”

The Social Network & My Generation
an open letter to my friend Peter Travers
Peter,
Hey man! So, I finally watched The Social Network the other night, and today I read your review of it, curious about your claim that this film defines my generation. First let me say, I agree that…
Great response to Travers’ questionable comment of The Social Network defining our generation.

To properly construct a slingshot you’re going to need the following:
+ A hanger (the sturdier the better)
+ A pair of whitey-tighties (if you don’t wear briefs, check your dad’s drawer.)
+ 2 rubber bands
