Found this at a thrift store a little while ago. The eyes had fallen out so someone glued red beads in the sockets. Probably looked weirder in person. Should have bought it.

Reminds me of the excellent film: Devil Dog: Hound of Hell

Hospital Hangout

So I had to go to Woodhull hospital the other day for an asthma issue, like semi-emergency style, nothing crazy. And I will say the staff was really nice and helpful, and quickly got me to the asthma room and to some vaporized medicine that was desperately needed. (Also I went and talked to the finance department after the ordeal was over on the advice of the doctor that saw me, and though it was just two ladies in this weird tiny little room, AND I had to have x-rays done, they somehow found a way to make my bill a mere $15. Seriously. Apparently they do this like income based system there, you just have to speak to 'em before you take off. So thank you for that Woodhull.) BUT, that being said, the breathing treatment room was fucking weird, all these medical chairs facing forward, with these weird medicine pumps next to them. This asshole next to me would not shut up and this jerk behind me was snoring unbearably loud. There was a weird little t.v. in front of the room with the Maury Show on it. I was there for about 6 hours total. So this nurse was being really cool. She brought us some breakfast food, which was awesome, and gave me the only bagel because she also thought the guy next to me was annoying. Also, when I got back from having some tests done said she she was hooking me up with lunch. (Which is funny cause the medicine they give you is like speed, and was just making me insanely jittery and un-hungry.)Me: "Wow, great, thank you!" Her: "I'm gonna get you a bologna sandwich, it is by far the best one we got." Me: "Cool, thanks." Then the sandwich came, and I am absolutely not complaining, but it was one slice of weird meat between two pieces of white bread and that was it. All I'm trying to say is, how much worse does it get when the best thing comes with the absolute minimal amount of stuff? I was able to procure some mayonnaise, slathered it on, and ate the thing. So then I needed to wash my hands. And that is when I took full notice of the sign above my head. It tells you that germs are bad or something and so you should remind your doctor to wash his/her hands. Remind the fucking doctor to wash their hands!? Dude,what the hell?

Bologna sandwich;


Wash hands sign. (Picture is at a weird angle cause I didn't wanna look like a jerk taking it. Gotta check out the fine print.)

Is it one word or two?

Shitload or shit load? You tell me. Sound off in the comments.
(Also just image searched that and apparently that is a very stupid word to use, because the corresponding pictures were just like boobs and unappealing looking fried food. Shit-load does sound pretty dumb. Right? Spout off in the comments. Can't think of another stupid way to put that, but if you can, go ahead and animadvert in the zone designated for other people's remarks.)

Ok, check out this lame-ish thing I'm about to do:

Seriously pseudo deep presentation of another evening googling shit like "has anyone ever" and "do some people?" etc. Posted something about this earlier with accompanying screen shot, but gonna omit that for now and just copy and paste what the search bar autofills. (And let me just be honest here. Obviously not all letters of the alphabet following the words "do other people" lend themselves to interesting autofills, so you gotta pick and choose. But I do think that the word "chasm" is a good way to remember some of the "good" ones (which is not to say they are in any way more revealing than the more "boring" ones). Basically, it makes for a good acrostic, cause like, hey, isn't that kind of what these types of inquiries are trying to traverse or whatever. You know, the great divide man. WHAT MAN!?

So just the unedited first 4 search suggestions for each letter typed after the phrase

DO OTHER PEOPLE:

C:
celebrate halloween?
call each other ugly?
cope?
cheat?

H:
hate me?
have feelings?
hear you?
hear American accent?

A:
affect you?
admire you?
admire me?
abuse others?

S:
see other colors?
see you as you see yourself?
see your circles?
see?

M:
make?
make you feel bad about yourself?
make fun other people[sic]?
migrate other countries[sic]?

Heavy signage at the laundromat

"We are not responsible for anything you forgiven in this place" On a lighter note, there is also a sign here saying that they do "pants hamming"

Nailing It

A 33 oz. bottle of A1. Best house warming gift ever? Thank you Brian Turner!

Uh

I won't attempt to explain/justify why there is a copy of Twilight in this image (though I get that: a) it's cool and there's no need to, and that b) that I just did/am in the process of doing what I what just supposedly said was unnecessary anyway, and that c) now this is just getting stupid. But this funny thing happened when moving into the new place when all the books were stacked against the wall, and one of the cats went missing, so I was calling her name, and all the sudden I heard this weird, quiet noise, and it took me a second to realize that she had hid between the wall and the books, and the sound was of a book being very slowly pushed out from the wall stack, and there she she was almost menacingly peeking out from behind this book, and I don't know what the point is, but it was kind of, uh, well pretty great.

One of the little things I loved about India. The average lighter seemed supremely extreme, having this gigantic flame and all...

No, Your Other Left

Taken in front of the Taj Mahal. Needless to say I went the wrong way.

Variety is the Spice of Life

A pretty good contrast of airport experiences. The first is at Laguardia where this guy was hard napping in his car in the drop off zone where they make all those repeated announcements about not stopping your car for any period of time. Like dude could not have cared any less. Then you have the Denver airport, where a polite-ish, athletic-ish bike patrolman is just all over that shit. (Not sure why the stupid photos are so small, not that we are at a great loss.)

I feel like this is the "Tree of Life" version of hamburger commercials:


Ok, but on a more serious note, this piece in the New York Review of Books on the Tree of Life I thought was definitely a worthwhile read:

From their description on youtube:

As planned the all ice bong worked perfect, as if it were a bong made out of glass.

Would it be cool if I went ahead and robbed you really quick?

There is nothing particularly insane or hilarious about this, its just an interesting way of going about things. Also I'm pretty sure that its also really sad.

What Dreams May Come

If you were skeptical about dream interpretation, tell me THIS isn't legit:
(from dreammoods.com)

Water Skiing
To dream that you are water skiing, represents an uplift in your spirituality and increase in your self-confidence. You are experiencing a new sense of freedom and calm.

or THIS:
Jet Ski
To see or dream that you are on a jet ski, represents a journey of self-discovery. You are confronting and exploring aspects of your unconscious in full force. Alternatively, the dream relates to some sexual adventure or relationship.

or THIS:
Inner Tube
To see an inner tube in your dream, represents the Self. You are not feeling emotionally whole. To dream that you are inner tubing, suggests that you are on experiencing emotional ups and downs.
