Okay, I am pretty much finished with Blockbuster. This is my last week, only because I was convinced to do it. My boss has me scheduled for 40 hours (note: 10 more hours than what I am supposed to work), but it is very likely I will be working somewhere around 45 or more. My last paycheck said I had 80 hours clocked, plus 10 hours overtime. Which means, I worked way, way too much.

Also, I am sick of these fucking 8 o'clock in the morning meetings to clean Blockbuster and get my ass chewed out for not putting a movie in the right spot. Or whatever the fuck it is.

And Amy not showing up or calling for 2 weeks, and then begging for Dooley not to fire her... c'mon, can she be serious? What a crackwhore. He gave her more than enough time to show up and work, but she just made grief for everyone else.

But yeah. Two days off, which means I work the rest of the week. Damn, it sucks it sucks it sucks so hard.

We're making out inside crashed cars,
sleeping through all our memories.

Turn off the lights,
And turn off the shyness.
'Cause all of our moves,
Make up for the silence.

And oh, the way
your makeup stains my pillowcase
Like I'll never be the same.

This song dances around my head like a halo when I feel lonely.

All these piercings young 14 year olds are getting piss me off.

When they're like 30 years old, what are they gonna do? Live on welfare and still be living in their parents houses, whining about their hair and cutting their wrists?

And yes, while I realize you can be totally respectable and have piercings, these guys are on the road to no responsibility and lots of whining.

They're 14, they shouldn't be getting piercings. They should take their adolescent age and wait until their like 18 or 20 before they decide to get tattoos or piercings. It's only so they can think about it fully.

A piercing can close up, but can leave a scar. I wouldn't want that, especially if I got tired of it after a while.

They forgot Rainbow Brite, My Little Pony, and Scooby Doo :(.

(Born in 1989)


If you're the age 12 OR UNDER...you should not read this

and if you do, you should not repost this.

Just because you were born in '96 doesn't mean you're a 90's kid.

Hell, if you were born in '92 or more, that just won't cut it either.

It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons. I am sorry but four (or eight) conscious years of the 90's just wont cut it.

You're a 90's kid if:

You can finish this [ice ice _ _ _ _ ]

(yay!)

You remember watching:
-Doug
-Ren & Stimpy
-Pinky and the Brain
-AAAAAAAH Real Monsters!
-Rockos modern Life.
I remember every one of these. But they forgot a really important one... THE ORIGINAL SCOOBY DOO, HELLLOOO! You can't have the 90s without Scooby!

You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"
Totally.


You just cant resist finishing this . . . "Iiiiiiin west Philadelphia born and raised . . ."
My life got flipped, turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air!

C'mon, Fresh Prince rocked. Will Smith!

You remember:
-TGIF
-Step by Step
-Family Matters
-Dinosaurs
-Boy Meets World
-Sabrina The Teenage Witch
I loved Dinosaurs... NOT THE PAPA!

You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons.
:)

You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.
I remember that!

Before Bush.
Those were the days...

You remember reading "Goosebumps".
I used to get so afraid.

You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school.
On occasion.

You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence . . . not
Totally. ... not.

when everything was settled by:
-rock paper scissors or
-bubble gum bubble gum in a dish or
-inky pinky ponky daddy had a donkey
- ennie meanie miney moe.
Okay, you totally forgot hanky panky.

when cops and robbers was a daily activity.
And tag. And lava monster.

when we played Hide and go seek until our legs grew numb.
:)

when we used to obey our parents.
ha, really?

You used to listen to the radio all day long just to record your FAVORITE song of ALL time.
OMG I REMEMBER THAT TOTALLY!

"Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?" was both a game and a TV game show.
I miss that show.

Captain Planet. He's a Hero.
So way cooler than Captain Underpants.

You knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green ranger, were meant to be together. ♥
<3

You remember when Super Nintendos and Sega Genisis became popular.
I totally remember that.

You always wanted to send in a tape to America's Funniest Home Videos . . . but never taped anything funny.
Haha, yeah.

You remember watching Home Alone 1, 2 , and 3 . . . and tried to pull the pranks on "intruders"
Number 3 was made kinda late... 1 and 2 were it, though.

You remember watching:
-The Magic School Bus
-Wishbone
-Reading Rainbow on PBS.
Only in school.

You remember when Yo-Yos were cool.
They aren't anymore?

You remember those Where's Waldo books.
I loooved those.

You remember eating Warheads.
And lemonheads!

You remember watching:
-the 1st Batman
-Aladdin
-Ninja Turtles
-3 Ninjas movies.
Dude, don't forget The Karate Kid...

You remember Ring Pops.
YAY!

You remember drinking Surge, and Tang.
Surge... that was so way more awesome than mountain dew.

If you remember when every thing was "da BOMB!"
Haha, yeah.

When they made the new lunchables so that you could make pizza AND tacos.
Those were so cool.

You remember boom boxes vs. cd players.
Yay.

Making those little paper fortune cookie things, and then predicting your life with them.
Oh yeah, I forgot what those were called... but yeah.

You played and/or collected "Pogs" :)
Oh my God I loved Pogs!

You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet, or Nano and brought it everywhere.
I had a GigaPet, a kitty one. Geena lost it :(.

. . . Furbies.
Yeah, that pretty much says it all.

"I love you... you love me" [ring a bell?]
WE'RE A HAPPY FAMILEEEE!

You haven't always had a computer, and it was cool to have the internet.
Yeah, I didn't get a computer in the house until I was like 12.

And Windows 95 was the best.
My first computer was WIN 95, right after XP got released.

You watched the original cartoons of Rugrats, Power Rangers, and Ninja Turtles.
Totally.

Michael Jordan was a king.
He was so coool!

YIKES pencils and erasers were the stuff!
Yay!

All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank" brand.
Totally cute.

You remember when the new Beanie Babies and Talking Elmo were always sold out.
It sucked.

You collected those Beanie Babies.
Oh yeah :).

Carebears.
Not the emo ones!

Gak was the coolest stuff invented.
Gah that was so cool.

Lambchop's song never ended.
This is the song that never ends! It goes on and on my friiieeends!

The old dollar bills.
I miss them.

Silver dollars, which were cool to have.
And the gold ones!

You remember a time before the WB.
Yeah, definitely.

You collected all the Troll dolls.
they kinda scared me.

If you even know what an original walkman is.
It's not a CD player or an iPod shuffle.

You remember wanting to sit on the orange Nickelodeon couch.
I wanted one.

You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"
Yes!!

You know the Macarena by heart.
I have sort of forgotten it over the years.

"Talk to the hand" . . . enough said.
Ha.

You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"
Still do.

You went to McDonald's to play in the playplace.
Well, we didn't go there to eat.

You remember playing on merry go rounds at the playground.
I looved those... I never see those anymore.

Before the MySpace frenzy . . .

Before the Internet & text messaging . . .

Before Sidekicks & iPods . . .

Before MIKE JONES . . .
(which one?)

Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX . . .

Before Spongebob . . .

Back when you put off the 5 hours of homework you had every night.

When light up sneakers were cool.
I loved those...

When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
Yeah!

When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.
Caller IDs were the shit.

When we recorded stuff on VCRs.
And on tapes!

When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off of our walkman.
I remember requesting songs all the time.

When checking out drawing books and that one book about the rainbow fish from the library was THE cool thing to do.
And that game with the jewelery.

You had slap bracelets!
YES!

Way back.

Before we realized all this would eventually disappear.
Noo...

Who would have thought you'd miss the 90's so much!!!!!

Post this in your bulletin if you remember these days . . . .

Post it with the year you were born in.

----

Pearly, this was possibly the coolest thing I have ever read. I remember EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT!!!

Hahaha.


(1) You accidentally enter your password on a microwave




(2) You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years




(3) The real reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they don't have a screen name




(4) You'd rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the button on the tv




(6) Your boss doesn't even have the ability to do your job




(7) You read this list, & keep nodding and smiling




(8) As you read this list, you think about sending it to all your friends




(9) And.. you were too busy to notice number 5




(10) You actually scrolled back up to check that there was no 5




(11) & now you're laughing at your stupidity

I love this song. It's so vivid and I can see all of it.

Annie's 12 years old
In two more she'll be a whore,
Nobody ever told her
It's the wrong way.

Don't be afraid with the quickness you'll get laid
For your family get paid
It's the wrong way.

I gave her all that I had to give,
I'm gonna make it hard to live.
Salty tears running down her chin
And it ruins up her make up
I never wanted

A cigarette,
Pressed between her lips
While I'm staring at her tits,
It's the wrong way.

Strong if I can,
But I am only a man,
So I take her to the can,
It's the wrong way.

The only family that she's ever had
Is her 7 horny brothers
And her drunk-ass dad.
He needed money
So he put her on the street,
Everything was going fine until the day that she met me.

Annie are you sad?
Wanna shoot your dad
I'll do anything I can
The wrong way.

We talked all night and
Tried to make it right,
Believe me shit was tight,
It was the wrong way.

Don't run away if you wanna stay,
Cause I ain't here to make ya', oh no
It's up to you what you really wanna do
Spend some time in America, dub-style

She'll give you all that she got to give,
But I'm gonna make it hard to live.
Big salty tears rolling down to her chin
And it smears up her makeup
I never wanted

So we ran away
And I'm sorry when I say
That straight to this very day
It was the wrong way.

She took a hike,
Don't matter if I like it or not
Because she only wants
The wrong way.

I gave her all that I had to give,
But she still wouln't take it, oh no.
Her two brown eyes are leaking like a sieve,
And it still ruins her makeup

If you cut yourself, seek help.

Professional help.

Wipe that smile off your fucking face
To be despised
To be loved
To be dreamt of
To be sought
I'm the inside of "I don't care"
Right in the middle
I'm right in the middle

Be my unholy
My one and my lonely

I wear scarves and hoods 'cause it's the only poker face that I've got left
And everything I love about you is a mess
Smash the mirror and break the palm reader's hands
I want to be better than I am.

When you count how old your dreadlocks are, you know you need a haircut.

I have a baby bunny.
I have tickets to see Fall Out Boy in concert.
I'm going to graduate.
I work in a bookshop.
My parents are supportive.
I'm graduating in June.

So why am I so fucking angry that someone stole my iPod? My life revolves around music... someone went through -my things-. They stole my iPod and 30 dollars from -my purse-. My things. MY THINGS.

What kind of person does a thing like that? Honestly?

Aside of the fact that I now have to save up money to buy a new one -- setting me back in both college funds...

I don't know. I'm an angry person.

I have been very upset and gradually getting sicker for the past week.

Valentine's is the worst holiday of the year. I told him the gifts didn't matter and it was just that we love each other, but it was bullshit. I wanted a year with roses and chocolates and kisses and loves.

I wanted to be selfish.

Dammit.

I AM TIRED OF THESE MOTHER FUCKIN' SNAKES ON THIS MOTHER FUCKIN' PLANE.

*shoots out windows, shoots out door. Byebye!*

Man that movie fucking rawked.

I will be so pissed if someone takes my last Elftown name :|. Just in case I wanna change it back.

But no. This name makes me giggle.

“What’s the matter?” he asked, blinking at her from bleary eyes.

Taryn’s eyes widened slightly, a look of stone passing over her features. “No where. The bathroom.”

Me: It... makes no sense.
Him: That's why it works.
Me: What?
Him: Have you ever answered the wrong question, because you were thinking about something else and didn't really know what they asked?
Me: Yes.

It didn't even make sense to me, but he got it. Heh, go David.

It's like God wrote a letter to the world, stating the following:

Your suffering will cease when I feel you have repented enough, or when I’ve enjoyed seeing your suffering. I am God, after all.

Love and benevolence,

God.

Only instead of it being in a plain letter, stamped, sealed, with the correct addresses, it's been lost to a story that everyone told until it was shredded to almost nothing more than a myth.

When someone has a poll that asks if I think they are hot, I always click on the option that says something like, "Other (message me!)" and don't message them because I want them to wonder.

A Spanish Teacher 
was explaining to her class
that in Spanish, unlike English,
nouns are designated as either
masculine or feminine.

"House"
for instance,
is feminine:
"la casa."

"Pencil,"
however,
is masculine:
"el lapiz."

A student asked,
"What gender is 'computer'?"

Instead of giving the answer,
the teacher split the class into two groups,
male and female,
and asked them to decide
for themselves whether
"computer"
should be
a masculine or a feminine noun.

Each group was asked
to give four reasons
for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that
"computer"
should definitely be
of the feminine gender
("la computadora"),
because:
1. No one but their creator
understands their internal logic;

2. The native language
they use to communicate
with other computers is
incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes
are stored in long term memory
for possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make
a commitment to one,
you find yourself spending
half your paycheck
on accessories for it.

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

The women's group,
however, concluded
that computers should be Masculine
("el computador"),
because:
1. In order to do anything
with them,
you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data
but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed
to help you solve problems,
but half the time
they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one,
you realize that if you
had waited a little longer,
you could have gotten
a better model.

The women won.

We take sour sips from life's lush lips
And we shake, shake, shake the hips in relationships
Stop by this disaster town
You'll put your eyes to the sun and say,
"I know you're only blinding to keep back what the clouds are hiding."
And we might have started singing just a little soon
We're throwing stones in a glass room.

Whoa we're so miserable and stunning
Whoa love songs so genuinely cunning.

We keep the beat with your blistered feet
We bullet the words at the mockingbirds singing
Slept through the weekend and dreamed
We're just sinking with the melody of the kiss of eternity
Got postcards from my former self, saying "How you been?"
We might have said goodbye just a little soon
(Somehow this disaster town)
Our beliefs of kissing beats over this room

Whoa we're so miserable and stunning
Whoa love songs so genuinely cunning
Whoa we're so miserable and stunning
Whoa love songs so genuinely cunning

It was ice cream headaches and sweet avalanche
When the pearls in our shells came out to dance
You call me a bad tipper of the cradle
But I’m tired yawns for fawns on hunter’s lawns
We’re the has-beens of husbands
Sharpening the knives of young wives
Take two years and call me when you're better
Take teardrops of mine, find yourself wetter

Whoa we're so miserable and stunning
Whoa love songs so genuinely cunning
Whoa we're so miserable and stunning
Whoa love songs so genuinely cunning
