I'm really bad at judging stupid people--even if I...
For example:
If you say you “don’t do veg” on pizza, then I’m going to think that your fat ass is only going to continue to spread when you graduate from university. And you will probably die of a coronary at 29. Veggies on a pizza is one of the most unassuming ways to eat vegetables. So, if you can’t eat veggies on a pizza, then you probably don’t eat them...
Today, I heard back from two companies that want...
It’s great news. I also heard from a third company that wants me to interview with them. The only problem is that I’m so involved in school and other interviews that I’m having trouble finding a time and date that works. I guess this is a good problem to have though. I’d rather be too busy to have all my interviews than not have any interviews at all.
I guess when you get tenure, you can just thrust your balls at students.

People often call me Damien.

Well, I’ve taken a step in that direction today. And she’s not running the other way.

Today I had a heated discussion with a professor.
We were arguing over the merits of the boomerang bird on Angry Birds. I said that the boomerang bird is useless and the worst. She said it was her favorite and very useful.
I spent more than 11 hours at my college building...
I am so tired and just want to be lazy and do nothing. So, I will probably do just that. Also, I have to get up earlier than usual tomorrow which is not going to bode well for me.
It's been such a long day.
I had class from 9:30 to 1:45 and then was back at Barsema Hall by 3:15 and worked on classwork until about 9:15. It’s been an insanely long day. And tomorrow will probably be almost as long.
I need a break.
Sometimes you just have to put yourself out there.
And that’s really hard for me. I keep things close to the chest. But I’m going to try things a different way this time.
I never thought I could want a vacuum or fan as...
The truth may set you free, but at first it’s going to piss you off.

This is another great blog from the people who brought you Damn You Autocorrect.
Working on a PowerPoint for a presentation I have...
I’ve spent more time making it look really good than I have doing research for the presentation.
I just really enjoy design and aesthetics of stuff like this. Visuals have a huge impact on the professionalism of a presentation. So, I spend a lot of time on them.
I love that I did all my homework on Friday so I...
taylosaurus replied to your post: Just ate chips and salsa and a peanut butter sandwich with banana and Sriracha hot chili sauce.
Is that all you eat? I’m not trying to be rude, just asking.
No, it’s not all I eat. I also eat turkey. And vegetables. And Mae Ploy sweet chili sauce. And hamburgers. And turkey burgers. And oatmeal every morning. But yeah I can see why you would ask; I do eat a...

I had to stop watching that Conservative bullshit....
They’re so full of blatant contradictions that they could be a Starbursts commercial.

It’s really boring, but when they do crowd shots, it gives me hope. The entire crowd is white-haired and looks like they could be my grandparents. This gives me hope because I realize it’s only a matter of time before the fear and abhorrence of progress is no longer present or remotely relevant. And they keep referencing Christianity and trying to tie it to the purported success of...
I once caught a shark.
True story.
Dammit, Responsibility, I'm not ready for you yet.
But, no, you keep barging in, yelling, “Take me! Take me!” and I keep saying, “I’m not ready to take you yet. I’m almost ready, but I’m just not quite there. Give me two months—a month and a half, at least.” But, Responsibility is incessantly demanding, “Take me now!” And so I kind of have to.
Looking at cars online today.
My wishlist includes:
Ford Fiesta
Toyota Yaris
Chevy Cruze
I basically want a compact car that gets good gas mileage. I hate when I see huge cars or trucks or SUVs with only one or two people inside. If I have to drive alone, then I want a small car to optimize gas usage.
Yeah...so...I bought two more books at Borders...
I’ve got to stop doing that. The store is closing in 5 days, though, so that will make it easier to stop buying books all the time. And I do not like Barnes & Noble at all so it’s not like I’ll just switch to going there.
Dammit, Comcast. You're cramping my style.
It’s like yoga except I still get to kill something.

Well, I'm on my weekend.
This week has been busy, but went by very quickly.

Now begins the part I hate: waiting for my application and interview answers to go through HR before I hear back from them.
