shutupinternet:
Before you start the posts about Sarah Palin, find a little bit out about her and what she stands for.

New Theme

Honestly, what is Alien Ant Farm doing on my computer? Am I ever going to actually listen to “Smooth Criminal” again? No. That song wasn’t even good when they covered it years ago. I hope I didn’t spend money on that song.
I just downloaded the ANThology. Did I see it in your library in SimplifyMedia, or someone elses?

East German spas, such as the one in my hotel here in the Leipzig area, are co-ed.
Fun Fact: It is also against the rules to wear a swimsuit. The visiting Americans I saw in there were not impressed to learn this. “This is ridiculous!” Shut up, no one is looking at you as a hook-up, lady.
Tumblr Antics

I love how Tumblr users all get together to talk about one thing at one time but all with unique and different styles. A few weeks ago it was the iPhone, then a community wide tribute to Carlin, then a bit about Brett Favre but more that week about the iPhone’s stupid I Am Rich application. Now it’s the Olympics for two weeks and while some people are watching every night...

Getting my invite to the Warhammer Online closed beta has made me a bit less of the sappy sad sod I’ve been lately.
The fact that this is what has cheered me up should probably make me more the sappy sad sod, but I’ll save that for later.
