Know what's funny? Every time Jerry Sandusky (child molesting coach from Penn State) gets in the news, we get people out on the street collecting money for "PENN STATE HELPS KIDS FIGHT CANCER" ::meev:: "No, see? We HELP kids" XD They were out again today.

I was planning an outing with my friend next weekend and I told her I couldn't handle a spicy cheeto. She then said, "but wait... Hate to pull this card but... Shouldn't you be able to handle spicy food? ;)"

I don't get it, what does she mean? I told her I didn't get it and she disappeared or something XD I FEEL LIKE I'M MISSING SOMETHING.
This has been bugging me, am I supposed to like spicy food or something? ::batsu::


and omg I hate it when Mao gets theoretical. I wish I could tell him to stop already XD

Indian cooking is traditionally very spicy, which you'd know if you were more in touch with your heritage.

Pumpkin with beef? Ew. I don't even know what that would taste like but it sounds gross already.
I think Burger King is trying too hard now. It doesn't recognize McDonald's world dominance and is attempting to usurp its rightful rule.
*writing this from a McDonalds*
I like BK though, especially the fries and chicken tenders.

Anyways, I'm totally annoyed about this grade I got for reasons unknown. I mean, the comments were like 95% good, even saying my whole paper was entirely well done and that I've done some "very good work here!" etc. I just want to know why I got the grade I got then. Some pages don't even have comments except "good." ROOOOOOAAAAAAR. I want to improve so I wanna know what I've done wrong... All these positive comments bug me XD I hate complaining because I like the professor, but ugh. Definitely going to office hours.

A friend of mine said "Study science." pshhhh yeah whatever.

Haven't you ever had stew with pumpkin and beef? It's not bad.
But the pumpkin, beef, and BACON....I dunno. not my thing.

I'd totally eat it without the burger and bacon though.

Thinking maybe I should have buddied up to Dada more XD
But then, I'm not good at using people anyway.

... no.
I want to have some lobster some time. I think I had it a while ago, but after seeing a couple of entrepreneurs on Shark Tank and their Maine lobster food truck company I've been wanting them now.

I don't like bacon either, or anything pig related, but I've always wanted to try pork rinds because I wonder if the whole sleepwalking thing is true (like in the Hey Arnold episode). I mean, I have a ton of adventures when I'm awake, imagine when I'm SLEEPING!?
... ::meev::

And my mom told me this HORRIFIC story. She said that her teacher in high school thought she was so honorable and trustworthy that he let her grade tests, and she just gave As to all her friends without even looking. I shrieked.

I remember grading Spanish tests, but I didn't do that!! Omg :B

Oh man, I gotta check that out once I'm home ::batsu::
I knew there was some live footage in existence out there, I won a copy once on YJ but the DVD-ROM they sent was completely unplayable. I think I tried about a million different players XD

Oh man... That's terrible! I had that happen with a DVD-ROM of "The Jar" from Alfred Hitchcock Presents...

As far as I could find, there was only 1BOX and 5月の華, but I haven't tried searching on Niconico Douga yet...

Both of these videos were from the Shock Wave Circuit '99 video, though I don't know anything else about it ^^;

So I finished reading the madousho #5.

Without getting into what it's about (oohh secrets), I'm going to be a total girl reader and say I honestly don't understand the male interest in collecting action figures and models.
Then I'm going to ignore that I just remembered I have over 200 My Little Pony. It's different.
...yeah so. Why? Some male needs to explain this to me.

I think it's because action figures and models remind us of shows/comics/movies we like. That's why I collect Nightmare before Christmas stuff, at least. I'm more curious about people who collect every Barbie doll ever made and then never play with them.

And I think the better question is, why would people collect things on this list right here? Some favorites are:

Navel Fluff
Air Sickness Bags
Soviet Calculators
AOL CDs
Burnt Food
Toothpaste

Best quote ever:

It was on the 17th of January 1984 that I found myself under-occupied in a youth hostel in Brisbane. The night was steamy and stormy - too wet outside and too hot inside to do very much, and my attention drifted to my belly button. There it was ... fluff! I must have seen it before that night, but this occasion was the first time I ever picked it out and wondered about it. I became curious about how much navel fluff one person could generate (enough to stuff a cushion, maybe?), and the only way to find for sure was to collect it and see. My first piece of navel fluff was stored in an empty film canister, and the collection had begun.
You know it's hardcore, because he knows the exact date that his fascination commenced!

I was walking to drop off some papers until I ran into The Strand and ahhhh I could be here all day! I love looking through books. So far I only have one about Impresionism (I've been looking for a good one because I didn't find any I liked in Paris), yay! And Leonard Woolf's "The Village in the Jungle" which I can't believe I found one inside for cheaper than Amazon~

There are so many weird ones outside though, especially about gender XD Like, "Women: Pros and Cons" and "World Weary Woman" which sounds depressing. XD "Man with Farm Seeks Woman with Tractor." "Birthing from Within." "Arm Candy" (it's actually about finding love.) "Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom." "The Missing Dimension in Sex." "What Men Want." - A doctor, lawyer, and an accountant tell you everything you need to know about what men want.

Ahhh, this is fun! :grin:

These three are the perfect trio to lift the veil because no one knows us better than our doctors, lawyers and accountants ::meev:: I wouldn't call it credible though; They forgot the opinions of realtors and politicians. <---- Topical humor ::gaku::

(Will Mel Gibbson star in the film adaptation of this too or will it star Susan Sarandon? ::meev:: )

We just want someone who can put an English muffin in the toaster without burning the freakin' house down ::foot::

Yeah, I'm already well aware of what you want.
I bet you subscribed to Jem Magazine.

And I was going to say, you can't stick a muffin in a toaster... *googles* :B

menwhat.jpg

the strapping fellows. XD I don't like making fun of people's appearances, but these guys look so... I don't know XD I think the guy in the middle is the only one who looks like a nice normal man.
I skimmed through some of the book on Google books and it was kind of simple things they were saying. Men are jealous, men are also inherently insecure, paying for dates, men want to be loved for who they are, first dates, he wants to make you happy, sex stuffs, things like that.
Oh and they remind you all the time that they're "professional men." ::meev::
... and women are supposed to accommodate their needs for strip clubs and sports.

Sort of off topic but I can't believe there's a book named: "Before Leonard: The Early Suitors of Virginia Woolf."
http://www.amazon.com/Before-Leonard-Ea ... 720612225/
I wonder if it's any good (yeah right I'm not paying $50 for it). ::batsu::

No part of this book sounds like a good idea... It sounds like that whole "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" mumbo-jumbo... Seriously, men and women are so different, they're probably not even from the same universe! ::meev::

Honestly, if you're going to ask someone what men really want, I don't think you have to talk to anyone but this man right here. This is the only authoritative and absolute, undeniable answer. ::cop::

No, I purposely found the magazine with the same name ::meev:: He's a pig like that.
Oh man, I'm SO tempted to buy all of the magazines on Ebay though. The cover pages for all of them are so awful and the articles are like, "How to keep a mistress," "So you want to keep a mistress," "Bottom Pinching is a Gentleman's Art," "Legalize Wife Spanking," "Never Work Under a Woman," "How to make out around the office," PIGS! PIGS!!!
I mean that is obviously sexual harassment, oh my gosh!

Men...
THIS IS THE VOICE OF FREEDOM!
... Freedom from the domination of women! For generations we American males have been bullied, brownbeaten, and neglected by the female sex... they have banded together to rob us of our independence, dominating qualities, muscularity, and masculinity! WE ARE VIRTUAL SLAVES... as we must not allow it! IT'S TIME TO FIGHT BACK! -- (continued on page 4)

Honestly, if you're going to ask someone what men really want, I don't think you have to talk to anyone but this man right here. This is the only authoritative and absolute, undeniable answer. ::cop::
Hahaha, that guy. HEYYYY *thumbs up*

Yeah I wouldn't take it seriously, but I think the whole "professional men" thing is weird XD Especially when they look as if they're all financial analysts at JP Morgan Chase or something.

The month of November is going to be so intense, I hope I can do this! @__@
