AVC: You got someone famous to narrate for one of your subjects in one episode. How did that come about?
IG: Well we knew—basically we were doing a story about someone who can’t talk, but would type his answers on a computer, and so we knew that on the air, we would want someone to read what Mike [Phillips] was saying, and at one point in the interview, we asked him,...

browsing etsy is a worthy use of my time.

I made this a while back to fit my ring finger, however, everyone soon asked me if I had gotten married- to which I replied in utter disgust. But seriously, this ring was made by me, in my shop, and it is the very first item I am selling on Etsy. As such, it also serves as a test sale for me, to familiarize myself with...
the only thing
that could improve this miserable day is the arrival of the glasses i ordered 25 days ago.
my starbucks drink was fucked up TWICE today. TWICE. even if i wasn’t sick and it wasn’t absolutely putrid outside, that alone would have put me in a bad mood.

I saw Frost/Nixon with Dru and Noah this weekend. Before the movie, a preview for Angels and Demons came on and Dru started clapping. I was horrified. And confused.
I’m sorry, I try not to be a snob-jerk because I know it is behaviorly-unattractive and behaviorly-unattractive people are less likely to get married someday - BUT - Dan Brown is awful. I feel like that’s a...
an equation
patbaer:
rubysneakers:
if x is my stomach and y is a mostly-recovered sore throat, what should my lunch equal?
Fruit smoothie?
I also hear fresh kimchee is good for a recovering throat.
lunch = the steak churassco wrap from au bon pain; or as i like to call it the ‘definitely don’t finish cooking that rice, because everyone knows rice should be crunchy’ wrap.

if x is my stomach and y is a mostly-recovered sore throat, what should my lunch equal?
i am sick
but i came into work because there is little chance of me infecting anyone else since i don’t sit near anyone, and because i have to take feb 4th off for jury duty anyway. i am therefore all bundled up and at least reasonably comfortable. trying not to be too whiny, although that’s hard.
the woman at starbucks overfilled my drink (with ice, she forgot one of the espresso shots, so...
thank you, starbucks cup #76
“The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating—in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.
—Anne Morriss

things i did this weekend
did two-man improv for the first time.
rode in a cab with two girls with a probably drunk cab driver who smelled like BO and curry and sang songs about the other two.
went to a crazy-ass party in williamsburg, saw a college friend’s younger brother and was astonished by his very presence.
eventually got back to the island i live on.
cleaned the bejesus out of my apartment.

study confirms what we've all suspected
“The research project, which also involved academics from the University of Massachusetts and McMaster University, Ontario, showed that while men were not so interested in “humour-producing women” in long-term relationships, they showed a preference for such types when it came to short-term relationships and one-night stands.”
well, that helps explain all the hilarious...

this site is pretty awesome. nyc-ers, be sure to follow streets and avenues when you click, because otherwise it will look like you walk a lot less than you do.

Hey,
If we are friends and I offer some kind of thoughtful insight into your life and then you rebel against that insight and use it to do something out of character and then that backfires -

the inauguration - thoughts from a smartass
a few thoughts:
there have been 43 people sworn in as president, mr. obama. someone should have caught that. grover cleveland was a little bitch.
they should have had W.G. Snuffy Walden compose the music for the inauguration. then it would have sounded, you know, presidential, and not like some russian ballet.
