be an ass, and life imitates tv
Retrospecting here -- yeah, I see how that last post is gratuitously self-serving, even for me. If you don't know a single person on the lineup, well, sucks to your assmar. You're probably better off not knowing them, frankly.
Someday you too will realize that 80% of people that life affords you to meet will simply be not worth your time. Maybe it's because there is some truth to not wanting to be a member of any club that'll have you. Maybe (let's say this one with emphasis) it's that people can really truly be boring and have nothing at all to contribute to society or the zeitgeist. Couldn't resist.
I was talking to sidekick Paul (he's sooo the Andy Richter of this blog) about being a social snob, and I outlined what has become a real win/win scenario for me: You weed out the good from the bad with a simple insult. Example? Nickname their face Gettysburg out of respect for their apparent stand against the Proactive Solution. From there, two things could happen:
Alright, I've written plenty. We'll have to hash out the travesty that is "Kinsey" in some other post. But, as promised:

- The person is not receptive to the joke, walks away like the chubby kid who keeps pulling up his trousers, hates you forever, huffs and puffs, and ultimately creates drama which can be later used as conversational fodder. Drama is never a bad thing, and in the best case scenario, your life becomes like a veritable reality tv show!!!
- The person is receptive, engages in a bit of repartee and your life, if only for a few minutes, feels like a sitcom. The serious evaluation really only begins when you have to figure out which slot this new friend of yours fulfills: Will, Grace, Jack, or Karen.

This paragraph is to inform you that I have laker-bulls tickets a week from sunday. can I get a hell's yeah?
Oh yeah. Earlier in the week (wednesday I think) I got everyone in my genetics class (that includes the prof who is famous) to laugh at a dorky joke that I didn't mean to say out loud. something about a gradient. it was clutch.

sidekick... fuck you. i'm just bored out of my mind and too lazy to post anything meaningful on my own blog.
yes. you are the blog sidekick. take pride in your small slice of celebrity, get over yourself, and call it a day.
So now that the boring ppl have been weeded out (with which I completely agree), do I fulfill the role of Grace? Self-centered and horrifically vain? :P
