Where did I go?

If you're wondering why I haven't posted, it's because I switched over to wordpress. I know.. Sad.. But I wanted to try something different!

Now You Know

What's with them, anyway?

I have a weird admiration for people who the social norm considers "geeky." And I'm not talking about this fad of cool geeky people who wear oversized glasses and collect comic books and play Katamari (Ok I just described myself, except for I don't collect comic books.) I'm talking about the genuine geeks. The old reebok tennis shoes, one of their old high school shirts, almost baggy (but not too baggy) jeans with the fringed bottoms because they wear them so much, hair is just as it was when they woke up (also as when they were 12), glasses genuinely because they're blind without them, old backpack with just as many pockets as there are keychains clanking around.

THAT kind of geek. Mad respect

(Weird how Animal Collective's "my girls" comes on and all I hear is "I don't mean to seem like I care about materials things like a social status.")

Back to the admiration. I feel like they are the only ones who have not enslaved themselves to the approval of others. They can wear whatever they want and act however they want and we just go "fuckin' geeks" AND THAT'S IT! No more than THAT! They go completely under the radar.

Imagine the release of pressure from society when you go UNDER the radar, the criticism, the judging. Sometimes I want to be less recognized. And the irony is that it is COMPLETELY my fault that I am noticed. I have subjected myself to this daily reality of judgement.

There is no real way to end this, mostly because I have no conclusion or resolution. It was just a weird thought that took its own path and turned into a rant that can now maybe make someone else think.

Oe maybe not....

Hearing a lot about this lately.

Can this become a new form of expression?? If so, COUNT ME IN! I WANT A WHOLE GIANT PIE PIECE OF THIS!! I'm imagining light posts and street signs COVERED in yarn! is it really considered violating property? it didn't damage anything...

hhhmmmm.... stay tuned for a whole bunch more of this because I kind of have a feeling it's in the air now...

Where did she come from?

I have come to realize a couple things in the past couple weeks:

1. I am so observant of human emotion that I forget to feel them sometimes.

2. I LOVE BUSTA RHYMES!

3. I have an obsession with jazzy tones (i knew this already from my Regina Spektor binge a couple years back)

4. I get chills every time I see Karmin do Busta Rhymes' part in this song.

Now You Know

Now what do we do?

I'ts a full-proof system Apple's got here. Nobody's going to give up their status iPhone and these workers will still get paid close to $8 a DAY for sometimes close to 98 hours a month just to survive in the 24-people dorm rooms provided by the Foxconn.

Full-proof. 

Who wants a droid anyway?

Because SOMEBODY has to say something.

Difference between men and women.

I know it's 10 minutes long, but it's well worth your time. 

Chappelle has horribly spot on insight.
