Weekend!

Oh shit, I call Torrid Ghost Affair™ for my new band.

Ugh, not a great day, friends. A couple of weeks ago, I saw a really great job that I was perfectly qualified for on LinkedIn. What really made it special was that one of my good friends worked for the hiring company, and for once in my life I had a connection to an advertised position. I told her about it, and she told me to hold off sending them my resume. She would send a referral along with my information, and that would serve as my application. Well, over the course of 2 weeks, I asked her every few days about the status, and everytime she promised to get to it once she could. Today she finally got around to it, and lo and behold, the company was no longer accepting applications for the position. I know I wasn’t guaranteed the position, but I didn’t even get a shot at it because she decided to fucking sit on it rather than take the 10-15 minutes to do the referral.

If that wasn’t enough, I signed on to Google+ for the first time ages to add some people back to my circles. Once I was done, I was taken to the suggestions page. And who was the first G+ suggested? Why none other than my ex-girlfriend, who ripped my still beating heart out of my chest, and who I had finally gotten over a few months ago! And her new profile pic? Oh, it’s her and her new boyfriend, smiling it up. Man, let me tell you about the great feeling that came over me.

Sorry guys, it’s just not a very planet day for me.

I guess anything can be an adjective now, huh? Well, in that case, I’m the most microphone guy east of the Mississippi.

I thought Taylor’s cameo was well done. I had actually totally forgotten about it before watching, so it did end up kind of taking me by surprise. But overall, I agree that it was pretty much a safe season finale. BTW, am I the only one that finds Elizabeth off putting? I mean, she deserves to be after some of the things Schmidt has done, but after a while you gotta cool it, lady.

I saw it over the weekend, and I’m pretty much in the same boat Kelly is in. The visuals were pretty great and I thought the casting was well done, with the exception of Nick and Meyer Wolfsheim (which I guess doesn’t matter that much since he wasn’t as prominent in the movie). I disagree with the music. It wasn’t all bad, but it felt out of place hearing those modern dance beats during all of the party scenes. And it really irritated me when they passed that car playing H to the Izzo.

Also, I wasn’t a fan of the cinematography at the beginning of the film. All those fast cuts felt like they were trying to plow through the movie. Though disclaimer: I’ve never seen a Baz Luhrmann movie before, and I saw it in 2-D, so my experience might have not been optimal. In the end, I say there are worse ways to spend $11, but don’t go our of your way to do so.

I don’t get it. Are the Bluths looking to purchase the Brooklyn Nets?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ indeed

I don’t think I could pick just one. I love Frosted Mini-Wheats, Raisin Bran, Honey Nut Cheerios, Cookie Crisp, Crunch Berries, and on and on. If I had to pick one, I’d go with Kashi Autumn Wheat. I has a decent amount of fiber (I’m old) and the right amount of sugar. Somewhere between “tastes like cardboard” and “tastes like diabetes”.

By “animated” I meant “not CG”

I agree with you all about Community. I almost wish that Parks and Rec wasn’t renewed for a 6th season, because I could then just rid myself of NBC all together. Almost.

See what you’ve done, OK Go? SEE WHAT YOU HAVE UNLEASHED?!

Well Mr. Colbert pointed out a practical solution for everyone. You’re welcome.
