This article is genius. “Fear of losses leads to greater loss.”
Even carpentry is interesting when Jake and Amir are involved.

Hello, Everyone
Sorry that I have been absent from Tumblr for the past few days. I was doing some travelling and hence wasn’t able to take the time to post things. My hiatus will only continue for a few days. Once I get back to campus, however, my bloggage will increase.
I hope you all had an enjoyable Thanksgiving and played it safe on Black Friday and stayed home and shopped online. At least with...
I Made It
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on staying awake during my drive home. I made it safely. I also managed to leave earlier than planned which helped me stay alert. Once again, thanks.
Suggestions, Please

I have to drive home late tonight. And after getting only 4 hours of sleep last night, I am just a little worried about staying awake for the drive. Any suggestions to help me drive safely and stay awake?
My suggestion, because i have the most ridiculous e-crush on you and i’d hate to see something happen, is to wait it out take a 3 hour nap, and drive later....

I’d sooner paint over the Mona Lisa than try to add more humor to this video. Although I would have liked to listen in on the planning meeting for this stunt: “So, okay, I’m just gonna jump off the roof and go through the hoop. Anyone see where this might go wrong?” “No.” “No.” “Okay, then it’s settled. You guys tape it, but a keep a hand free...

It’s so true. It was eventually World War II that generated the revenue to save America from the Great Depression. Will it be the Pirate War that saves us from the Second Great Depression? It’s a thought…lol…
dear twothirty
until:
every time i see a post of yours i pronounce your name “tooth hurty” because of some lame joke i heard when i was a kid about what time it is if you ask a dentist, or something.
i feel silly for pronouncing it that way every time when i think “twothirty” is a great tumblr name, and that it’s probably not at all associated with that awful joke.
Yeah, I’ve heard that joke. I think...
Anger
I’m just a little angry that tonight is my university’s final home football game and I can’t go to it. My one night of the week to have night class is on Tuesdays and it’s an honors seminar so there are only like 8 of us in the class, so I can’t miss without being noticed. The seminar is also discussion-based so I have to go. I am mad. I really want to go to the...
Pineapple Express
I just saw Pineapple Express and have to say that it is honestly one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time. Great movie. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone—stoner or not.

This is so funny.
My Plan: The Review
I had a whole plan on how I would go to sleep really late Sunday night so that I could go to bed early on Monday night so that I could wake up early this morning (Tuesday) for my 8:00 exam. Well, I stayed up until like 4 on Sunday night/Monday morning and that was fine. Monday I was tired all day, but when it came time to go to sleep I couldn’t sleep. So, last night I got like 4 hours of...

Great Ideas
So, I just got done with writing about Marx and Engels’ Communist Manifesto and am now writing about Nietzsche for my Great Ideas seminar, in which we read and discuss philosophical, religious, and political works. These guys are incredible geniuses. I am still in awe at how brilliant they were.
My Grandfather
I don’t know why I was thinking about this, but I was. My grandfather once was looking for paintbrushes in his over-cluttered garage, but he couldn’t find them. Upon not finding them, he was honestly convinced that a mouse had eaten them—a set of paintbrushes. Eaten by a mouse. Yeah. He was so serious that it was hilarious.
To Mugger
The following was posted on Craigslist by someone who apparently had a bad experience with a mugger:

Thanks chief, you really made my evening. I was just thinking a few days ago “wow it’s be a while since anyone stuck a gun in my face” Then you came along like a soft breeze in the night. I think you did a pretty good job, however I could offer a few pointers. ...
The Things We Do for Wi-Fi
(Denton, TX) A man complained to Denton County sheriff’s deputies that his neighbors have been stealing his wireless computer access.
The man said he has seen the neighbors up on their roofs several times with their computers and has photographed them.
They back their car halfway out of the garage to give them a way to climb to the roof, he said. Then they use their laptops while sitting on the...
