Guys
tylercoates:
You have no idea how lucky I am to be sitting with five fifty- and sixtysomethings who, if given the chance, could get everything running smoothly from post-Irene repairs to the entire United States government.
Remember when you thought your friends would change the world?

Bon Iver Shits On MTV →
Interesting that a great singer-songwriter like Justin Vernon is such a shitty writer(not that I’m much better, but HELLO!?). Not that he’s wrong here.

I’VE ALREADY EATEN THE EMERGENCY CANDY I BOUGHT AND IT’S NOT EVEN RAINING YET, but just note that Party Monster is on Instant Netflix. So you can either kill yourself now, or Irene will do it for you.

Did you also know that the internet in your house is powered locally by electricity? It’s not impossible that you could be without the internet this weekend. That also means Netflix and even television, if you still watch that. (It also likely means a lack of VOIP phone service.) Prepare for the weekend and its aftermath with “paper books” and even board games. (Try a deck of...

So not only do I hate people who outright challenge weather, as if by saying “BRING IT ON, WEATHER-SYSTEM!” they’re actually accomplishing something, but I also hate those folks who are affluent enough to actually flee from dangerous weather.

(I’ll leave in all my initial drunk spelling errors)
The preface is that I don’t like dancing. I don’t find it to be a particurally civilized outlet of feeling. What do I mean by that? Well, it seems like dancing is what people do who feel but don’t know how to talk about it, so they haggardly move tiehr bodies around. Maybe I’m wrong.
Dirty Dancing is the story...
The Only Way To Explain
all the modern, 1987 music in Dirty Dancing is that the whole movie is actually set in some sort of elaborate The Village-esque context.
