I say: Assimilate
Are zombies like vampires, where if they eat you or whatever it is they do, they turn you into a zombie too?
If that's the case, we should just let them eat us and become a zombie population. We shouldn't be culturally chauvinistic just because we don't [...]
Move to San Francisco Because it’s late March, and I am still wearing thermal underwear. Because I LIKE it when people are nice to me when ordering a bagel. Because I want to study the history of the American West, and you can’t do that in the East, except at Yale, and who wants to [...]
“They’re O.R. scrubs.” “Oh, are they?”
I watched this movie recently, and I can't think of anything funnier right now. Wes Anderson runs a little hot and cold for me, but man, i laugh at this one more and more every time i see it.

Been thinking more about this one. So, I googled "as seen on TV" and apparently there's an official website for items tagged with that phrase (www.asseenontv.com). There are more ads for hair removal devices than just about anything else. I love the names of some of these things too- the image that "Slap Chop" conjures [...]

Aren't you?
Benjamin Braddock is one of the most endearing characters in any movie I've ever seen. He's got this false confidence, this then [...]
Mozzarella I particularly hate it when Italians, or people with Italian pretensions call it MOOTZARELL. Fuck that. No one else calls croissants QUASON, so make like the French and be phonetic.
Boyfriend I wish this word didn’t exist. Or at least I was able to refer to Brian as my companion without people thinking [...]
I am really good at repairing vacuum cleaners. I fixed the belt on one at home when I sucked up a shoelace and it tangled the wheelie thing and it smelled like burning. I went to the hardware store all by myself, and told the guy what [...]
I am so sick of the cold weather. Artichoke hearts come in EVERYTHING there. Berkeley is a fantastic school. Two Buck Chuck is actually $2 there. Everyone is nicer. Tennessee Valley National Park. Arnold Schwarzenegger would finally be the boss of me. The Bean Bag cafe. Recycle bins on every street corner. Of course, [...]
