The Isometric Perspective

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Wed, 26 May 2010 22:41:00 +0000

SO, a thought occurred to me on funnyjunk today with the prickish 12 year old community wanting more achievements for an already cancer filed site mainly regarding this post, here's my opinion:

You fucking kids nowadays always want achievements for the simplest of tasks, its the only way to keep you interested in anything anymore because your mother and father's lack of praise in their parenting makes stupid blocks of text next to your name seem like a vicarious way of getting their approval. Howabout you and all your Xbox Live junkie friends go get the achievement for fucking yourselves, this month only the points are worth double

Another terribad update

SO, with my visit to the first day of summer classes at CSU I encountered a lot of new people, things, cultures... holy shit there are a lot of fucked up people in Cleveland. But anyway, this just really brings me to my main point of people wearing the stupidest fucking clothes and outfits imaginable - well to me at least, they are unimaginable because I could never think of wearing black jean short that go to your shin with a leopard skin vest over a red shirt. Anyhow, here's a short list of clothes with pictures embedded that I really wish Americans would stop wearing:

Uggs

The two things I automatically think about when I see a girl sporting these nasty shag shoes
1: Slut
2: Idiot who paid way too much for fake fur

Jean Shorts

Chances are we have never talked if I have seen you wearing these since they are one of the many choices of apparel often sported by child rapists and 8 year old boys which actually have a lot in common

Technical Tees (Cut-Offs)

No. Seriously never. People shouldn't be wearing these in the gym, or on the field or whatever let alone in public.

Sequined Apparel

The fastest way to determine if someone is a stupid black chick or stupid black chick wannabe is if they own these

Crocs

If you still wear these the probability of us ever hanging out is slim to none

Puffy Vests

These were never cool. Also, they don't keep you warm with half your body exposed. And hopefully you never rub up against anything hotter than 110 degrees or the fucking plastic will melt and you'll have fake goose feather cotton balls exploding out of it

Shants

You probably belong at an ICP concert or shooting crips in a back alley if you've ever thought about owning these

What a fucking gay update. I am such a woman for making this

Gotta Get Me Some Alligator Ice

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 04:31:00 +0000

SO, I was sipping on some Georgia Peach Alligator Ice® when I got to thinking that I needed to rant about some shit that's been going on in my life lately.

First off, no matter how good I am with my hands...ladies, I am actually not so deft with my hands in plenty of subjects. To list a few, working with artistic mediums, balancing dinnerware, keying (that's the proper term for typing you twats), finger push-ups, and those stupid string kits that you make Eiffel Towers and shit out of, to name a few. The one that's really been bothering me recently is the artistic mediums, namely, .226 caliber wire for this wire structure project we've been assigned. Now this isn't the actual stuff your main piece is made out of, no, that's like eight times thicker. This stuff is literally 1/64 of an inch wide and physically pierces your fingers when you grab it the wrong way. Every day after class I can leave being able to make a finger painting hand print out of my own blood. But enough ranting for one entry.

Below is a screenshot of a recent survey given to the Ashland students and faculty who dine at our cafeteria. This is just one of my witty responses:

If you don't know what national holiday I am referring to then shame on you... But you can bet your sweet ass I'll be celebrating it even if I have to get a little gay with myself.

In other news, that Georgian luger died in a terrible crash the other day at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. If you missed the national CBS coverage that was taken down from thousands of sites, and youtube accounts thats okay because the good people at Exploding Plastic Inevitable recorded this clip at the scene: (if you're on facebook you can't see this without special apps)
Oh, wow. That looked pretty nasty.

But lets try and leave on a high note with the recent demographic:
Oh wait, no, that's just kind of fucked up instead

The Power of Prayer

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 04:19:00 +0000

So, somehow I just worked a variation of this into my essay:

20 people all have the same disease. Each person is put on the same type of treatment in the same hospital.

Each of the 20 families of the person prays equally as dilligently for their respective family member.

However, 19 of the people die from their disease as a result of medical complications.

The 1 person who survives was saved by God.

The newspaper reports this story under a headline similar to "Power of Prayer Saves Patient"

The same newspaper also completely neglects to inform its reader about the other 19 people that just died.

Wait a minute...

Walruses and Hard Asses

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 18:01:00 +0000

SO, its below 40 degrees everyday now, and people still think they can wear a tear shirt and flip flops outside all the time. Are you fucking kidding me? What are you trying to prove? That you're some kind of hardass that is impervious to temperature changes? Or maybe its just because you're such a walrus fat ass that your blubber keeps you insulated between your trips from the vending machines to the cafeteria. Seriously, put a jacket on so you don't look like some retarded child who doesn't understand the earth's seasons.

Back to the Brass Tacks

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 17:46:00 +0000

SO, I had to create a blog for my EDCI 232 class and the recommended site to use was of course blogger.com, which was somewhat of an coincidental epiphany for me to begin blogging on my own site again. Nothing big to talk about at the moment though. However, I have been going out on the limb lately, doing plenty of stupid and regrettable things, but the fact that I did them just makes me feel better. Anyhow, more posts and rants to come soon.

SO, I don't think anything is more annoying than signing onto Facebook at the end of the day and seeing a dozen new statuses from people who think their life is so horrible. Stop being such negative Nancies. I swear to God, nothing on the internet pisses me off more than people who just feel sorry for themselves so much that they have the need to express it to everyone else to comfort their asses. Clearly, moping does not fit into the two rigidly defined categories that the internet was designed for:
1: Looking up pointless misinformation on Wikipedia/ Submitting pointless misinformation on Wikipedia
2. Watching porn
Please. Tell me where bitching slides into that

I dunno, it just seems like people are real downers sometimes. Is it because they're all secretly craving attention and spotlight (dammit, blogging about this seems so hippocratic)? Possibly. Maybe they just had a bad day. Sure. Maybe you're just a pessimistic pussy. Likely.

Next time you're sitting at your computer, bitching to your friend on AIM, or writing an e-mail about how shitty your life is and how much you hate it... just look around you. Look at the computer you're using, the room you're in and its furnishings. Do you know how many millions of people in America envy you just for being where you are? Have you ever thought about how lucky you are for being brought up in a two parent household (no offense if you weren't)? Did you ever stop to appreciate how good you had it because you're in/went to college? (again no offense) No. No...don't even say of course, cause you haven't actually given a good couple of hours of your time wondering how horrible lives of other people are. 12% of people in America live in poverty every day. Do the math of 12% on 300 million right now. Okay, I realize that's a little hard for most of you with the horrible U.S. educational system but that's 36 million people. Those people don't even have the ability to tell people how bad their lives suck.

I really don't want to go into numbers and all that jazz, I'm just saying, realize how good you've got it. Realize that you've got expendable cash in your pockets at all times. Realize that you're probably being just a little bit selfish when you walk past a charity collection booth and don't donate because you want to spend an extra dollar on Taco Bell tonight. Realize that you're a lucky one. And realize that I'm going to flame you on Facebook for being an emo faggot.

Engrish essays

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 19:27:00 +0000

SO, I'm taking English 101 this semester. Going into it I knew it was going to be the easiest class in my schedule and I planned on blowing through it with an easy A. Yeah, well that's still all going as planned. I just wanted to rant about our piss poor public education system and stupid people for a bit.

Today we had to do peer editing for our autoethnographies essays which basically an excuse to write about any group of people you've ever belonged to and what specific factors made that group different from others; subcultures. Anyhow, I put a good three hours into four double spaced pages about running culture. I had a fun time writing it, putting quips and anecdotes in it that made it seem humorous and casual. I wasn't really too thrilled with the result cause it seemed like I wrote an article for Reader's Digest or something rather than a more personal explanation of my involvement with running. Anyway, my professor loved it, and the people in my group thought it was pretty good too. That was last week. This week was the second peer editing session. Instead of critiquing on ideas and topic in your paper like last week, this was more grammar and sentence structure critiquing. It's like someone wanted to make me laugh or something. I love tearing that shit apart.

Out of all the rejects in my class I probably got one of the better picks. That's not saying much of course. The first sentence instantly turned me off from the essay when I learned it was about Catholicism cause anyone who's ever met me knows how devout I am to religion. By the time I got to the thesis I was already stifling my laughs from the girl right next to me who happened to write it. If a seventh grader was in my class he would have found this paper paper amusing. I've tried to push most of the gritty details of how bad this paper was out of my head forever, but some of them are just bound to stay for a while. I spent a full half hour simply correcting grammar and sentence structure before I got to the questions our professor wanted us to address about each others topics. Most people had already read and "critiqued" three papers by then. I felt bad for being so hard on her. I really don't know whether she didn't enjoy writing her paper and blew it off, or she never glanced at it after completion or what. Maybe she just went to a really shitty high school.

Sometimes I'm really glad I went to the school that I did. Sure it was boring at some times, yeah it was about 92% white, filled with hicks who dipped 24/7, punks who thought they were hot shit, and girls that got everything they wanted but a second car, but I'm glad I had the chance to take English classes that taught me to discern between talented and poor writing. I'll agree with the theory that you write better when you you're writing about something that interests you. That's probably the biggest reason why I nearly always got B's on most of my English essays in senior year. But that's the whole point I'm trying to make with this autoethnography situation. We're writing about things that we're a part of, we're obviously interested, try a little. Last week when we merely read our essays to each other I was having a hard time not shouting out every three sentences saying "Why would you ever say that there," or "That has to be fixed somehow". I don't know. Shit like that bothers me.

I think classes like English and writing need to be held on a tougher scale. I mean, it's your language for Christ's sake. You should learn to use it correctly. It's the basis that holds together societies. Its not like its just a thing that goes away once you're out of school. You'll be known as a shitty writer or a shitty speaker for your whole life, and its one of the easiest flaws to spot in a person. When people do poorly in an English class, or I read something with obvious mistakes I always think back to an episode of King of the Hill I once saw. Bobby had just gotten an F in English on his report card. Hank comes into the scene and examines it and says to his son, "Bobby, how did you get a F in English. You speak English." Seriously. We speak English, either learn it right or move to China cause they're about as good at it as most Americans now.

I'm gonna have some badass scar tissue

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 02:42:00 +0000

SO, I guess I got a little delayed with this whole blogging thing due to my medical mishap last week. Oh yeah, you probably didn't even know that my contact sliced my cornea last Thursday in my sleep. which in turn became infected and thus an ulcer was formed right over my pupil. So let story time begin.

I basically suffered an agonizing Thursday of classes with my eye winked shut staring at the ground while people asked why my eye was winked shut and I was staring at the ground all day because every little tiny source of light felt like a sea urchin was rolling around over my retina. Basically, I decided that the only thing I could do for it was sleep it off so I didn't go to practice and went to bed at 3:00 pm, waking up every 30 to 90 minutes in a stinging pain to wash my, at that point, severely wounded eye with tap water from my squirting sports bottle. Needless to say, but I'm gonna say it anyway, I was in about twice as much pain the next morning when I physically could not keep my eye open 1) due to the family of microscopic porcupines that transmogrified themselves from light rays on top of my cornea and 2) because my eye was severely swollen and puffy. Yeah, I don't like having to go to the hospital, but I figured since my eye looked like a perfect diagram of the sun that showed sun spots and astral flares, all in the same vivid colors, that it was a good enough reason to hobble on down to the clinic.

Anyhow, it's been one week and hourly applications from each of my six different antibiotic eye drops and two slow release antibiotic pills, and now my vision is almost back to normal. Just for a couple of seconds, think about what it would feel like to literally have your cornea split in half. (You should be thinking now) Mmm...

I guess some good came out of the whole situation though. My ophthalmologist says that I'm going to have a little scar on my cornea for the rest of my life. Okay, now some of you may think that's kind of weird and creepy, but I think that's pretty badass myself. Sure, it causes a small loss of vision, but now maybe my right eye can catch up to my contact prescription in my left eye. I'm actually kind of sad that he prescribed me a steroid drop to heal it.

Alright, that post was kind of selfish and next time I'll try to talk about a more concrete, in-the-news topic to rant and flame about instead of my personal life. Or maybe I'll just talk about the fucking Asians across the dorm hall who smoke in their rooms every day cause it's too cold for their skinny asses outside. Damn they piss me off.

Let's cut the red ribbon

noreply@blogger.com (Prism) — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 00:54:00 +0000

SO, this blog won't be entirely serious at all times. It won't ruthlessly tackle pressing matters. It won't critique every dot of the "i" on an issue. It won't be the next big thing in the political blogosphere. It won't go in depth into philosophy or doctrine. It might not even cover anything that you find interesting or entertaining.

However, I'm going to have fun with it
