  1. I was feeling sad because I moved out of my house and am currently homeless...but I promise you, white sox fans, I will stay homeless if it means a perfect game every day.
  2. I'm in the library watching this. Needless to say the dwise catch and alexei throw for the perfect I screamed. f***
  3. I'd bet the large majority of people going to lolla actually are going for more than one band. I'd never go to a music festival either unless they had even more than 5+ bands, but I guess knowing that many bands makes you a music snob.
  4. QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 12:20 AM) Quit whinning and tell me about The Jesus Lizard. just sunday, my brother's wedding was on friday/saturday.
  5. no it doesn't. That's why so many women and young girls try british accents and giggle to each other, because it's not funny.
  6. if you can't hit it doesn't matter if you are a lefty or a righty. You might as well be Johnny No-Arms Malone.
  7. Went to pitchfork yesterday. I'm really tired though.
  8. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 17, 2009 -> 02:06 PM) There's nothing wrong with pit bulls. It's the people that train them to fight that should be beaten with a stick. guns don't kill people, people kill people
  9. QUOTE (Soxy @ Jul 17, 2009 -> 02:43 PM) Unrelated to actual thread topic. You think of the pace of a summer class is grueling--try prepping and teaching it. On par with waterboarding. Yeah, I'd imagine. I heard you still only get less than 75% accomplished of a normal course too, right? of summer classes I've taken, they usually bank on a lot of reading and in class, it's high participation, because 2 hours we get restless. kicked ass on the midterm btw. Chose to cover Witte's economic policies, ftw
  10. affirmative action for racist white males
  11. ahh, it's always funny when old people underestimate the immaturity of the American male.

    Films Thread

    Wow, didn't expect that. Oswalt looks pretty good. The one thing, it looks like the guy takes cues from Aranofsky, I'd be so annoyed if it's another "1000 cuts per minute" movie.
  13. I find film transfers and restoration kind of fascinating.
  14. Studying for the midterm, the pace of summer classes is absurd. Annoying enough, I thought with the limited amount of hours (2/dayx5/weekx4) would lead to us to jumping right in and covering really intensely the revolution. But, the professor lets us know every ten minutes that he attended Cambridge, is incredibly long-winded, actually uses penultimate and antepenultimate...ugh, and spent the first week going through an overview of all of Russian history. Now, the funny part, was I thought there was a method to his madness, I thought there would be tendencies of an inevitability in Russia's movement to Communism. But, besides that the nobles were used to complete autocratic control before hand in their autocracy, especially with Peter the Great, there really wasn't. I'd never realized what a highjack the Bolshevik revolution was. And so, I've always found it funny as we go through the different history levels of our education, how you realize the incredibly shallow versions of history you get as you move up can sometimes be be so limited to the point of being false. Stupid childhood myths told as important descriptive facts. Now, granted, the impression of the Soviet Union and the Oct. Revolution I'd gotten was usually framed in U.S. history, centered around World War I. So I don't know, it's just funny to me how off it was. Interesting class.
  15. but even for Giles, you are implying that is in case CQ doesn't work out. The deadline is in like, 15 days, would you really write out CQ after that much time, enough to block him?
