In honor of Praino's excitment for vice presidential debates...

Another Tina Fey Moment of Genius!

A "Confessions" Post

Ok so heres the thing. Last week I brought one of my fabulous frozen lunches to work- but since the company got pizza i got that instead. So my little box of frozen food went uneaten. So all week whenever I put my new lunch for the day in i would be like "oohh yea, forgot about you"

so today, i totes forgot my frozen entree; i was like OH SHIT, but then i remembered my one from last week. Sweet.

I went to get it today from the freezer, and i kind of don't think the one i took is mine, hahaha. There were too many red boxes from the same maker. So i grabbed the first one that looked like it was something I would eat.

So thats my confession, i stole someone elses lunch- well possibly, it could always be mine. but it makes me laugh.

Surely this is one of the all time greatest commercials ever...

In honor of people who understand me...

Clay Aiken: I'm a Gay Dad

By David Caplan

Following the Aug. 8 birth of his son Parker, singer Clay Aiken is following through on a promise he made to himself as a new dad: to publicly acknowledge that he's gay.

"It was the first decision I made as a father," Aiken, 29, tells the upcoming issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday. "I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn't raised that way, and I'm not going to raise a child to do that."

Aiken says he expects the news may overwhelm some of his fans. "Whether it be having a child out of wedlock, or whether it be simply being a homosexual, it's going to be a lot," said Aiken, who returned to Broadway last week as Sir Robin in Monty Python's Spamalot.

He adds that he hopes his fans "know that I've never intended to lie to anybody at all. ... But if they leave, I don't want them to leave hating me."


So, are we all shocked by this breaking news? Because I for one, had NO IDEA that Clay Aiken was gay. This is just ridiculously shocking and I had no idea this was coming. My second reaction to this is...wasn't this announced like, 4 years ago?

Comments, thoughts, reactions ladies?

So I'm taking this class...

And today, this girl came in, and I nearly fell on the floor laughing. She of course came in 20 minutes late, but it was what she was wearing that nearly killed me. She had plaid short shorts in shades of bluish and a blue shirt. That was the normal part. Then she had these crazy yellow bangles on. Her other accessory was bright yellow beaded multi-hooped earrings. These bright yellow, and by bright yellow, I mean sunshine, obnoxious yellow accessories were to accentuate the main article of significance on her: her shoes.

No words can quite describe them, so I'm including a rough picture.
Picture these beauties now in bright, sunshine, obnoxious yellow. Note that they are a pleather-like material and how pleather might enhance the brightness of the yellow. Yes, it was astounding. I couldn't take my eyes off them for at least 5 minutes.

I do not understand why people wear things...

Vlog time!

Ok so this is part one, just a general whats up and general praino randomness. the second part is even more random, i ll post here soon :)

And you thought Praino Grammar was bad....

ok so this is all for realzies, i was working on this book today (its a cross word) and it needed lines cut- like whoa. so the author was sent the manuscript and was supposed to go through it and mak e the cut. however, i guess this guy is a douche, and it def showed in his "correction."

so i started to go through the book and not only are his clues made of crazy, but his corrections are even more so. Below is a list of the more humorous ones, and yes i also shared this with my boss for the lulz.

Ok so key, original to "correction" is the format it is in. also the italics are my comments.

"keeps the sauce from coagulating" to "keeps the sauce saucy"

"where the cyclotrons was invented" to 'cyclotron's invention place"
…….. or maybe "cyclotron invented here"

"you might be in hot water there" to "place to be in hot water there"

"he played the dad of diff'rent strokes" to " dad player on diff'rent strokes"


just a general clue called "runawaygoer" ….. um yea, proofreader did
fix; but still it was there

"attack that sounds like where shoppers go"-- ok so this answer was 'maul' so i changed the whole clue to "animal attack"

"capital that's the most eastern capital in the US" to " The most
eastern capital US's" ** personally they both don't make a lot of
sense**

"where Ophelia seems to go crazy" to "where Ophelia goes odd" – not
gonna lie I lol-ed, at both.

"astronomer who said "billions" a lot" to "he said "billions" a
lot"—well THAT narrows it down.

'wwII amphibious assault vehicles" "to "wwIi amphibious assaulters"
--- no, just no.

"her hit song was about an overrssponse to a balloons release" to "her
hit song was about an overesponse to balloons"

"the kid who became darth vader" to "kid who'd become vader"

"game where you try to become cardless" to "game for losing cards"

"he played a dictator in "the great dictator"" to" dictator player in
the great dictator"

"state where most blueberries com from"' to "good state for blueberries"

Resume time? I think so...

So yes, I'm feeling that it's time to start more actively pursuing some other career opportunities. Even though I probably won't make any moves until after the first of the year, I'm so ready to get the ball rolling with things. I've spent this whole week languishing in front of spreadsheets of orders and billing from the past year, making sure everything has been processed and closed out. I realized when I took this job that it wasn't really editorial, but I so didn't sign on for the crap busy work they're giving us now. Needless to say, my cohorts and I are all feeling rather resentful this week. It's not that we have anything else to do (honestly, we really don't), but certainly someone could come up with something more useful/cooler, etc. for us to do during the day.

The only plus is that we all get half day Fridays through early October, so I get to leave the office at 12:30 tomorrow. I fully intend on coming home and sleeping lots and lots and lots.

Plagiarism

(Source: http://info.library.unsw.edu.au/psl/skills/direct/itet_lilt/module3/images/plagiarism.GIF)

Let's discuss a very serious topic today: PLAGIARISM.

It's not a good thing. It's not even something that should be tolerated. It's not even something that is necessary because with the wonderful world of citations (and the many versions there are of citing things) you can take stuff and just throw in the citation and you're done.

Let me illustrate how I feel about plagiarism for you through images (which, ironically, we usually plagiarize, so today I'm citing its source):
(Source: http://sociology.camden.rutgers.edu/jfm/plagiarism/plagiari.jpg)




Why all the hoopla about plagiarism today? Well, let me tell you. As you all in the publishing business know, it's bad to plagiarize. As I, in the academic field know, plagiarizing is bad. Freshmen however, do not care if it's bad if it gets them a speech grade. As I listed to 22 more speeches today (because I listened to 22 on Monday and this was the continuation of that), I had to grade all 44 of these speeches this afternoon. While listening to speeches, I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, nor did I expect plagiarism to be a problem on a special occasion speech where EVERY SINGLE FACT COULD BE FABRICATED.

Yet as I sat in my office and started evaluating the speeches, I came across one with writing that just, struck me as being...different. The speech was on General George Patton, who I know nothing about, and yet, I KNEW there was something wrong.

So, thinking like a freshman, I immediately go to Wikipedia, source of all sources. What do I find right there, in the first paragraph? A DIRECT MATCH to my kid's speech. Ridiculous. I quickly type Ctrl+F to see what else I can uncover. Let's just say by the time I was done not only did i know about General Patton, but there was less written text (for a speech that could be completely made up) than there were plagiarized sections.

I am astonished that kids actually try to pass this off as being ok. I covered plagiarism and it being bad on the very first day of class, also known as National Syllabus Day. Am I ok with this? No. What am I going to do about this? He's failing the speech. Is that all that's going to happen? I don't know. Because I'm a TA I have to get in touch with my boss to figure out how to approach this. I want him to fail the class because honestly, plagiarisim is never acceptable, especially not on a speech that COULD HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY FAKE AND MADE UP and was only a 4 minute speech that they had three weeks to work on.

I'm not happy. I hate teaching.

Don't plagiarize.

Tina Fey is my hero!

Praino get Political- Part 1 of 2

I just wanted to share this with you guys, it is a letter that Eve Ensler wrote regarding Sarah Palin, and I thought my independent woman would be interested in reading it :)


*Eve Ensler, the American playwright, performer, feminist and activist best known for "The Vagina Monologues", wrote the following about Sarah Palin.
*

*Drill, Drill, Drill
*


I am having Sarah Palin nightmares. I dreamt last night that she was a
member of a club where they rode snowmobiles and wore the claws of drowned and starved polar bears around their necks. I have a particular thing for Polar Bears. Maybe it's their snowy whiteness or their bigness or the fact that they live in the arctic or that I have never seen one in person or touched one. Maybe it is the fact that they live so comfortably on ice.

Whatever it is, I need the polar bears.

I don't like raging at women. I am a Feminist and have spent my life trying to build community, help empower women and stop violence against them. It is hard to write about Sarah Palin. This is why the Sarah Palin choice was all the more insidious and cynical. The people who made this choice count on thegoodness and solidarity of Feminists.

But everything Sarah Palin believes in and practices is antithetical to
Feminism which for me is part of one story -- connected to saving the earth, ending racism, empowering women, giving young girls options, opening our minds, deepening tolerance, and ending violence and war.

I believe that the McCain/Palin ticket is one of the most dangerous choices of my lifetime, and should this country chose those candidates the fall-out may be so great, the destruction so vast in so many areas that America may never recover. But what is equally disturbing is the impact that duo would have on the rest of the world. Unfortunately, this is not a joke. In my lifetime I have seen the clownish, the inept, the bizarre be elected to the presidency with regularity.

Sarah Palin does not believe in evolution. I take this as a metaphor. In
her world and the world of Fundamentalists, nothing changes or gets better or evolves. She does not believe in global warming. The melting of the arctic, the storms that are destroying our cities, the pollution and rise of cancers, are all part of God's plan. She is fighting to take the polar
bears off the endangered species list. The earth, in Palin's view, is here
to be taken and plundered. The wolves and the bears are here to be shot and plundered. The oil is here to be taken and plundered. Iraq is here to be taken and plundered. As she said herself of the Iraqi war, "It was a task from God."

Sarah Palin does not believe in abortion. She does not believe women who are raped and incested and ripped open against their will should have a right to determine whether they have their rapist's baby or not.

She obviously does not believe in sex education or birth control. I imagine
her daughter was practicing abstinence and we know how many babies that makes.

Sarah Palin does not much believe in thinking. From what I gather she has tried to ban books from the library and has a tendency to dispense with people who think independently. She cannot tolerate an environment of ambiguity and difference. This is a woman who could and might very well be the next president of the United States. She would govern one of the most diverse populations on the earth.


Sarah believes in guns. She has her own custom Austrian hunting rifle. She has been known to kill 40 caribou at a clip. She has shot hundreds of wolves from the air.

Sarah believes in God. That is of course her right, her private right. But
when God and Guns come together in the public sector, when war is declared in God's name, when the rights of women are denied in his name, that is the end of separation of church and state and the undoing of everything America has ever tried to be.

I write to my sisters.

I write because I believe we hold this election in our hands. This vote is a vote that will determine the future not just of the U.S., but of the planet. It will determine whether we create policies to save the earth or make it forever uninhabitable for humans. It will determine whether we move towards dialogue and diplomacy in the world or whether we escalate violence through invasion, undermining and attack. It
will determine whether we go for oil, strip mining, coal burning or invest
our money in alternatives that will free us from dependency and destruction. It will determine if money gets spent on education and health care or whether we build more and more methods of killing. It will determine whether America is a free open tolerant society or a closed place of fear, fundamentalism and aggression.

If the Polar Bears don't move you to go and do everything in your power to get Obama elected then consider the chant that filled the hall after Palin spoke at the RNC, "Drill Drill Drill." I think of teeth when I think of
drills. I think of rape. I think of destruction. I think of domination. I
think of military exercises that force mindless repetition, emptying the
brain of analysis, doubt, ambiguity or dissent. I think of pain.

Do we want a future of drilling? More holes in the ozone, in the floor of
the sea, more holes in our thinking, in the trust between nations and
peoples, more holes in the fabric of this precious thing we call life?

lol cats part deux

I think maria had a post like this a few months back about rpattz.... so its like that only instead starring Ben Barnes

OK girls, so i had this dream last night that I was in a CVS aisle:

When who do I see but Ben Barnes:

And he was all:



Then he came over:


And talked to me ( pretend I am this bitch instead):

Then we got married:

Yup, it was awesome- maybe i should go to CVS for real and see if Ben Barnes is there waiting for me.

Tully - do something about this!!!!

I have HBO!

I'm not sure if I mentioned this, but I have HBO now! So in addition to the season premiere of Entourage that I watched tonight (good, but nothing fantastic), I saw another show that I feel needs some discussion.



















True Blood. Clearly it's about vampires. I like it. A lot. It's pretty compelling and amazing and the vampire in it is kinda good looking. I say it's worth a watch, or two, or seven...

That Mother Chucker

Tulls, I watched it and I am so in love with Chuck. I love Blair and I want them to be together. The rest of the cast can fuck off for all I care. Chuck forever!!

In Keeping with our lol-catness...

Yes, please. Pretty please?...

A love note to Praino

Also, because I'm sad and nothing cheers me up like Lolcats!

Praino Gets Politcal

Ok, I know this blog is for LULZ and what not, but this kind of pisses me off. I've got a few things to say about McCain's running mate, Palin. First off I think McCain has shot himself in the foot; yes he chose a woman- and that is fantastic- but where the hell is her experience??

She is a first term gov., ok Obamas only been in the Senate a few years, but a mid-term gov., with like 2 years experience?

Ok so maybe I am jumping the gun here. Let's look at her stance on things:"Palin's anti-abortion and pro-gun record have excited conservatives and party activists"


....... 2 Problems

1. Guns, they are totally unnecessary in this day and age, yes it is in the Constitution but that was written over 200 years ago, the world was a different place. You actually needed guns to hunt for food. But now, in 2008, WTF lets lessen the gun a bit, how many kids have died b/c of guns? Ughh it just pisses me off that in a world where were are supposedly the most intelligent we have ever been (which is doubtful to me most days)) we still have archaic laws for guns. FAIL.

2. She is ANTI-ABORTION??!! How can she, as a woman, not allow for a woman's right to choose?? Yes, abortion is horrible- i think everyone admits that, but for some it is an option. Like a 13 year old girl who gets raped and pregnant- should she have to carry a child b/c she was raped. No. Also Palin is against birth-control-- in any form.

yea thats right she is against contraception, in 2008. Hello resurgence of AIDS

Now i am not going to attack her in regards to her family and her daughter; thats none of our business, although i do feel bad for the girl. But I just look at her stances, so far, and it scares me. This is not what the US needs; we need to change how the world sees us ( aka Puritanical hypocrites) and I dont think this woman would help that. yes, she is a woman and that is wonderful that women are in politics, but honestly when she comes packaged with, just no.

Um, so this rant went on longer then i intended, and i hope i didn't offend anyone with my rants, but clearly i am not supporting McCain (shocker i know). But i was reading all these articles online and i just got pissed, but we'll see what she says tonight at the RNC.

Also to make up for this rubbish, i will post a fun Vlog later :)

Love ya!

Nothing useful, just LULZ

Entourage Secrets & Confessions

Ok, so instead of posting a picture of myself, I thought it would be more appropriate to steal Praino's picture and use that for my Entourage Secret & Confession blog.

So here it goes: I am terrified of the kids I'm teaching!

One looks like she wants to get up, run to the front of the room, and bitch slap me the first chance she gets. Another one won't shut up and appears to be trying to piss me off my talking about how much she hates public speaking. (See the irony there?) Oh, and then, there's another one in my morning class who didn't show up for the first day and tried to smooth things over (because he's sure he's that super charming) by stating in his introduction speech "My roommate and I were up until 6am and when I woke up again it was already noon, and I was like, 'oh crap, I hope my speech teacher doesn't hate me!'" I'm scared of all of them. I'm pretty sure they're going to catch on to the fact that I've got a BA and I'm still taking classes and I'm only like, 3 years older than all of them.

That's my confession guys. Don't judge me.

I so scared, so very, very scared...

I found this on ONTD .........
