Wait... This Isn't Sunday?

Maybe I'm just a nerd, but this is awesome/hilarious/chalkfullawin:

NERD LIST 2009!!!!

There are two things that nerds are good at in this world:

1) Seeing the world as completely black or white (ex: Vampire Diaries/True Blood/Twilight/anythinginvolvingvampiresmadesrecentlythatdidn'tcomeoutofsweden - Sucks, Dr. Who - Awesome)

2) Making useless lists that no one (obviously excluding the person writing said list) cares about.

Today feels like a number 2 day to me.

Life isn't all Santa Barbara Roses

Every one has a path, a journey, an endless struggle. Moments of clarity and true contenment can be found in any lifestyle. Find time in the day to get beyond the surface of what we show the world and become what you are (whatever that might be). If your an A-hole, own up to it and be an A-hole. Remember that Socrates said "the unexamined life is not worth living".

The " " part below is from this Minus The Bear song I've had on repeat for two days straight:








Hey. Who knew things would be so hard? Don't worry, I'm here pulling for you. Even when others say its a lie, you'll be happy if only for a few. Back to the depths of an untamed consciousness, eventually I will awake trying to be what is true.
This glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
Take off your prescribed lenses, I don't want glass between us.
Put on your shoes, lets go to the beach around two thirty in the morning, I feel like dancing like me.
"Dont Cry, I'll bring this song to you" and shake our hearts free of this dust.

im obsessed

i bought a new goldfish today. his name is andre, like andre the giant. hes the white one in the tank and anchovy is the orange one. look at the difference in size!!



they're the same type of gold fish, ryukin, so maybe someday anchovy will get as big as andre. I LOVE GOLDFISH!!

Dear Tyler Moore and Robot

It is a well known fact that there is only one robot in existence capable of taking my place in this band. I am speaking of course of Johnny Five, no other machine in the world can produce the same emotion driven songs while keeping the edge of "punk rock" attitude that make HP2(.1) the greatest lyrical band of all time:

So allow me to make this perfectly clear, unless Johnny Five and Johnny Five alone (no Steve Guttenburg, no Michael McKean, no oddly Indian sounding gentleman from Bakersfield) walks into our next practice, you're stuck with me sir.

Sincerely,

Country Dave
