You know how I know there's a recession: Part V
I get more emails from stores (JCrew, Macy’s, Williams Sonoma) announcing sales than from “real” people.

by this story of the octuplets.
Ok, so let me get this straight. She’s a single mother with six kids of her own and she lives with her parents and she’s just had eight more kids? (guess i’m not doing half bad for myself?!? I kid, I kid.)
So I was reading some articles and they posted pics of the house they live in and it’s not enormous… I mean for a family of...

Me: I feel dumber after watching this (the Tool Academy)
Ryan: Yeah, is there anything else on we can watch.
Me: In just a second, I've gotta see who gets kicked off.
Ryan: You're ridiculous. You're addicted aren't you.
Me: you can't watch the entire show and change it the last five minutes.

“In Oslo, air pollution from public and private transport has increased by approximately 10% since 2000, contributing to more than 50% of total CO2 emissions in the city. With Norway’s ambitious target of being carbon neutral by 2050 Oslo City Council began investigating alternatives to fossil fuel-powered public transport and decided on biomethane.

I agree. There’s definitely a flattering way to dress for each body type. She’s a curvy girl and these pants DO NOT look good on girls with curves. I would never, never attempt...

You know how I know there's a recession: Part IV

I’m sorry that our building only has three treadmills and i’m sorry you decided to go at one of the only crowded times of day… BUT you standing behind the machine, creepily staring at your pissed off reflection in the window, with your arms folded across your chest is NOT, I...
