Virtual Flaneurism

If your legs haven't gone numb, you're not doing it right.

This is surprisingly adorable (from Jonathan as well):

From Jon:

From Meredith:

"Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."

- Steve Jobs

I know I'm two days late (though I managed to get a hold of the album last week), but obligatory Gaga post. This is my favorite number on the new album, which is growing on me but definitely not as good as The Fame or Fame Monster.

It's a same height party. This kind of shit could actually earn you a degree at NYU.

You could replace these games with original Picassos and I would be less offended.

Yo, yo, some new Beyonce JUST leaked. It's better than "Girls Run the World", but still nothing fabulous. B's ballads are never my favorite.

Apologies for not posting so much lately. My summer job just began, and it seems like every time I get some time to just sit, I'm nowhere near the internet. Not to mention the internet itself has been a massive fail lately -- what you've been getting is the cream of a not so bumper crop.

This was one of the posts I lost, and it's too good to not repost:

Harry: I think both of us — he’s definitely got more brains than me — we’ve established that from school. But when it comes to all that I’m much better hands on-
William: I’ve got all the brains and looks as well, obviously.
Harry: And the baldness.
Interviewer: [pause] Did you just have a dig at his baldness?
William: [laughs] Several digs in there.
Harry: What, sorry?! His baldness? No.
William: Pretty rich coming from a ginger so I’m quite happy to let go of this one—
Harry: Well, ah … [points his finger at the interviewer]
William: But he’s a good-looking ginger so it’s all right.

Let's just drop all the oldies at once:

This song is all my fifth grade roller skating parties, rolled into one.

This guy was in Bridesmaids, which I saw last night. Was crying in the theater, I was laughing so hard. GO SEE IT.

Aww, puppy Cerberus.

Today is the 21st anniversary of Jim Henson's death. A sad day for kids and adults everywhere.

When I have children, adopted or not, it's a given that he will be exactly like this kid.
