Pet peeves, holiday edition

I hate social networking in December because:
a) I don’t care what your GPA was this semester, b) There are only so many Christmas-related statuses and tweets that I can handle, and c) I REALLY don’t care how good Santa was to you this year. You got a new car? Maybe Santa should’ve given you modesty lessons instead.
In the words of Charlie Brown, good grief!

Jonathan Safran Foer
30somethings who were cool when they were 20something.
Jodi Picoult

Chuck Klosterman
Boys who don’t read.

I swear to god, my dreams keep getting stranger and stranger. Last night I dreamed I was Michael Cera, who, after hearing Kathy Bates give a heartwrenching recitation of Sylvia Plath’s “Mad Girl’s Love Song,” made out with her.
What the hell.

I want to move to pandora. Most original movie I’ve seen in a long time. Easily on my top five of the year.
Okay, I met the movie’s trailer with total disinterest. They hype, to me, was annoying. Visually stunning, sure, I’ll give it that. But it is not by any means original. How unoriginal? In 1957, Poul Anderson...

Way to go. I bet they’ll like it. Can I get a PEEK?
maybe. i was pigeonholed into doing it. i’m a bit weary of others reading my stuff (even though i have a blog…contradictory, i know)....
