Today cannot end sooner.
After my rant, I found this site and decided that to save all that could be cool before the hipsters burn it all away with their parliment lights, we must act first.
Sign the petition and get Marty McFly’s 2015 era Nikes from Back To The Future.
Hipsters
I hate Hipsters.
I hate that Hipsters share the same sounding name as Hippies. I hate hippies more but there aren’t many around anymore because evidently all the hippies have all become Hipsters.
I hate the H&M, American Apparel, Urban Outfitters Hipster Kits that are out there now. Though some would say this is all the sign of the apocalypse of this hipster epoch I disagree. The...

Two sites have piqued my interest of late. One is thecobrasnake.com and the other is lastnightsparty.com.
Both are loaded, loaded! with nothing but photos of cool people posing cool poses. The cool is so rich that, well it redefines cool as the new douchbaggery.
Enjoy!
Just to illustrate the intelligence of the AMPTP (The Studios) in this strike disaster, check this.
Somebody in the annals of the AMPTP offices didn’t think to purchases the .com of their own trademarked acronym.

Zombie update…
I am fuckin’ loving this book.
Did you know….
The average zombie “life span”-how long it is able to function before completely rotting away-is estimated at three to five years. As fantastic as this sounds-a human corpse able to ward off the natural effects of decay-its cause is rooted in basic biology. When a human body dies, its flesh is...
Iran's prez has a blog
The Gods of Unintentional Comedy have given us all a treat.
The little funny guy who thinks he runs Iran has a blog anybody can post on.
Oh yes you can post anything you want to on it (judging from the kind of messages on there so far.)
I need to vent on how much I hate working for someone else. I know I am not in the minority on that. Everybody hates working for someone else, except the very fucking stupid.
There will be a day when I actually have to answer to myself and can REALLY start complaining about the boss…..
Amy Winehouse
This woman is doing an amazing job with her life. I only wish there were more fine examples like this to show young ugly girls all over the world that YOU TOO can make it with just talent and a massive heroin addiction to the top of the charts!
It must be in the water
I don’t know if anybody is noticing but there is a lot of labor unrest going on in the media these days.
1. The WGA went on strike this November and, to date, there has been a near total work stoppage on any new or existing television and feature productions.
2. The Broadway theatre workers union went on strike (briefly) and stopped shows in Times Square for a week or so.
3. Viacom...
Audiobooks
During my drive between Pittsburgh/NYC I listened to the folowing audio books.
World War Z, by Max Brooks
Dune, by Frank Herbert
I can’t recommend World War Z enough. It’s a total sci-fi geek thing about zombies and shit. Written by Mel Brooks son no less!
As I was driving through Western Pennsylvania in the middle of the night I actually had chillls run up my spine. It was...

WatchYes, it is a perfume that smells like pussy. It is not a novelty. It is a straigtforward fashion item from Germany.
Perfume that smells like pussy. What every mom, daughter, and wife want to find in their Christmas stocking!
Drivin to NYC
This is so not California. Supposed to snow all this weekend and I am going to try to drive to New York and back to Pittsburgh to get the rest of my things out of my former apartment in Long Island City.
So happy to have got rid of that apartment. My roommate was nice but I do not recommend Queens to fans of Manhattan. Queens is a poor man’s New York. That is the best way I can sum it...
As I was going on and on about stupid complaints about my job when I realized how selfish that sounded. There are thousands and thousands of families suffering because of the work stoppage under way right now.
Not to mention young people just trying to make enough to pay for 99 cent dinners.
I will still complain because it is my thing, but I will now always preclude a rant with a small...
I haven't stepped outside in a week.
Between living on the 5th floor and working on the 20th floor of this hotel, I am finding that stepping outside into the real world is completely unnecessary.
This is some cruise ship/virtual existence gone awry. The flip side is that I don’t want to step outside becaue it is 25 degrees today.
I do love my hotel room. Says a lot about me that I prefer living in a hotel to an actual...

I always feel guilty when I get heated up in a discussion. I don’t know if it is my competitiveness, inferiority complex, or just bullying.
The older I get the less I feel guilty about it as I guess I feel that I know the reasons behind arguing for something. Just as much as I know the reasons for NOT fighting over something.
One must pick his battles.
Or
I am just a miserable...
The best thought out idea for Westside Railyards →
I used to day dream about buildings of this kind when I was young. I am turned off that each one of these massive condos are 30 million.
I hope this starts a new era in buildings that actually do more than just house coke-head lawyers/hedge fund managers/douche-bags.
Yeah. right.
Snowing out my window right now. This has brought a smile to my otherwise bitter angry face.
Pittsburgh is not a shitty steal town
It is a facsimile of Seattle. Lots of white people in LL Bean. The minorities seem as though they are not welcome here and keep their heads down.
I like this place better than Seattle because it doesn’t have any false sense of style or importance as Seattle does. Sienna Miller recently referred to this place as Shittsburgh and not one local disaggreed (though one said it was more like...
Just signed up for this
Just moved in. The place looks great, good fonts. Good neighborhood. Close to a few class restaurants. Not too noisy. Not too much work to get it up and running.
Yeah I think I like my new place here.
