Aaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh

So.  I have a dj-ing appointment scheduled for December 31-January 1.  Would the kids (mostly meaning people a few years younger than me) like Tony Orlando and Dawn?  I mean, the 8 people, including me.  Would we like "Knock Three Times"?????????



I'm just joshin you!

I know what I'm doing.

Right?

Should I just get drunk and make weird hand gestures from the corner of the room?  Wow.  That just made me laugh out loud.  I like to spell it out for the kids.  LAUGH.  OUT.  LOUD. That would be my ultimate.  To just hang out in the corner and make hand gestures and everyone would get it.

I'd like to have an audience.  I'd also like to have a low-key crowd.  CONTRA. Diction.

This all depends on whether or not my Assange infatuation completely removes me from polite society.  Which I fear it might.  Cos I'm not even comfortable with it. See also the Fanciers Guild.

I've had this sitting around for over two months and since I'm being really slack about writing (and reading, doing anything creatively productive) I thought I throw it out there. Extra bonus points for me because I'm giving you this on a Friday and if you're like me, you don't work on Friday. You may be at work, but...

Most of  these are really old but I could still watch them all day and never stop loving them.

Any Baby Cakes video is amazing but this one especially gets stuck in my head. I like to sing "Shirley Moates" a lot, too. Watch all the Baby Cakes videos here.


I don't know. I just like the song I think. It's catchy.


"Babies born of ibuprofazane" is not the real lyric. Don't forget to breathe.


Watch with the sound off. Still mesmerizing.


This guy is terrifying. Would not want to meet.


Benny Lava.


Sing this song ALL the time. Especially in winter. But really, how the fuck?


And finally, the pièce de résistance, Chuggo, with "C'mon Fuckin' Guy."

Paging Mr Herman

You know how some people say they have "a calling" in life? Those people who from an early age KNOW that they want to be a doctor or a whatever (what do people want to be these days?) and then they FUCKING DO THAT THING? I don't understand that. I'm pretty sure it's just that they've convinced themselves that they're supposed to do that thing and so they do it without thinking about it. I've never felt that I was supposed to do a particular thing. Not even close. I suppose I have at times thought that I was SUPPOSED to be a writer but I usually have to work so I don't actually have much time to focus on that. Not truly focus.

That being said, can we talk about how weird and awesome acceptance is? Let me see if I can explain myself. I'm not talking about accepting others, that's not something I interested in. Other people are dumb and you shouldn't have to accept idiocy. We should all be held to higher intellectual (and pop culture) standards (that includes knowing what a "Flapper" is/was). I'm talking about accepting yourself and the way things are. THAT being said, I don't mean that I am advocating for throwing your hands up and giving up, abandoning all forward progress, or killing yourself. Hmm. Well maybe, in some circumstances I am advocating that you kill yourself because you CAN'T STOP WHINING about how the "WORLD" is fucking you. Ha ha. Ha. Stop talking. Now. You're an adult.

Anyway, I have realized that it's EXTREMELY annoying to whine all the time and have been trying to change myself because I know that I tend to be whiny. (But I was really having trouble trying to figure out how to make tacos last night. I can't cook that simply! If it takes less than four hours I'm lost. There was some LOUD whining in that kitchen.) So I've been slowly shifting my brain into a mode of acceptance. By accepting who I am and how things are I find I am infinitely happier. It works especially well for family relationships. You just go, "eh, fuck those guys," and then you just have a good time when you see them. It also works for hating the town you live in, "eh, fuck this place," and then you just keep on going, knowing that it's not forever. It's a sort of "fake it till you make it" mentality I suppose except less corny. Also, I'm not too concerned with the making it part right now. I'm just doin' me. OMG. Yay!

So don't cry and don't whine, just do this (I think it will help) :


So don't let them bring you down and 
Don't let them fuck you around cuz 
Those are your arms that is your heart and 
No no they can't tear you apart
