"..Set if off..."
If only I was angry often enough that I could incorporate this phrase into my everyday speech. Something about it just tickles me.

dudes really be pullin a fast one on these girls with that ‘older guy swag’. I can’t believe it sometimes!
"Can I call?"
It’s so adorably self conscious, polite? when Chris asks this.
Apparently, these were some of my favorite things...
reject
ex. “The bus driver reported us to the principal for calling Edward a reject.”
sorry bastard
ex. “Edward is a sorry bastard.”
witch
ex. “Grandma is such a witch and nobody knows it but me.”
starburst
ex. “He’s not a starburst, but she is a bitch.” (shrug…I have no idea what I meant by that.)
adventure
ex. “The whole...

numero uno…talk less.
Don’t complain about a thing (not once, not for sympathy’s sake, not for venting’s sake) that I’m not actively working to fix. Whether it be by adjusting my environment or adjusting my perception.
Instead I will:
shut the fuck up.
write it.
fix it.

I know people who claim to love chaos. But I don’t think they actually know what true chaos is…(when I was young, stupid, and still perpetuating a dark, goth-y image I’m pretty sure I was one of these ridiculous people.)
All I know is that I’ve grown up and I’m pretty sure I would NOT like it. Like I said, I’m certain people don’t know what they’re...
"God, You're Not the Boss of Me."
Since I started college, I thought it’d be the coolest thing to do a christian-teen drama. A realistic one. The lives of religious young people can be quite dynamic (that goes for any denomination, faith, etc.) and I don’t feel like I’ve ever seen it done justice. A muslim, a christian, a catholic…they’re always used as gimmicks on television, interchangeable with...
"Get over it."
I believe in progress…in fighting the good fight and keeping it moving. However, I don’t believe that it’s anyone’s place to determine what measure of hurt should be considered substantial. It’s not about whining, or playing the victim…sometimes it’s just about being hurt. Real pain, emotionalpsychological pain is not something that can be helped…so...
4 Things Both Atheists and Believers Need to Stop... →
0nlybyth3n1ght:
For a moment, take a step back and forget all the ideas that come to mind when you hear the word “God.” Forget about organized religion and everything that flows from it. No Jesus or Buddha. No corrupt religious figures abusing their positions to raise money or shelter sin. No holy wars or persecutions based on humanity’s flawed understanding of divine intent. None of it.
Just...
Put it away. Put it in your notebook, but get it out of yourself. Away so you can’t curl up with it anymore.

I'm not much of a Christmas person.
However, I will gladly chock up my grades and this semester period, to a Christmas miracle of some sort. This is the best semester I’ve had at Oakwood…I still can’t believe it all worked out so great.
Should I get married and have kids, I’m sure Christmas will matter to me then. The only thing that really makes it matter, as far as I’m concerned, is watching, helping...

Curiosity killed the cat and all
Yea, I get that. But I’m really curious to see what this occupy wall street protest looks like. I want to see what’s going on over there for myself…
Racist Roots of Obama’s Preventive Detention →
fuckyeahmarxismleninism:
By Glen Ford, Black Agenda Report
With his claim to the right to kill and indefinitely detain American citizens without charge or trial, President Obama has crossed a Constitutional Rubicon that would have been beyond the capacity of George Bush or any white Republican. The groundwork for Obama’s nullification of the rule of law was laid through federal prosecutions...

Truth is
I love myself more than I love most people or things. That makes for a very selfish me at times, but it is one of my oldest known truths. One I revisit whenever I’m faced with the dilemma of caring too little vs. caring too much… I can only be myself *shrug*
