20 Wonderful Words Which Shouldn’t be Allowed to Wither:

There are many words these days that are rarely used – and that is a great shame as even the simple act of their enunciation can bring on a smile, such is their irrefragable brilliance. Go on, drop a few in to your next conversation and ensure their preservation. You are guaranteed to be the cynosure of attention and contesseration will be guaranteed. In other words you will be the life and soul of the party and make many friends.

The Best Films of the '00s

The Best Films of the '00s:

The scene was not unlike 12 Angry Men (or, in this case, 3 Shlubby Men, 1 Exasperated Woman, And A Dude On Speaker Phone From Arkansas): Armed with lists of their favorite movies of the decade, the five core A.V. Club film writers spent days sequestered in a stuffy, un-air-conditioned room—okay, it was actually just a few hours, and we were comfortable—in an effort to forge consensus on the Top 50 films of the ’00s. The result: A ranked list that is in no way arbitrary and will serve as the canonical standard for decades to come. You’re welcome.

glitterjitterbug:

No one is afraid of heights, they are afraid of the fall, No one is afraid to play, they are afraid to lose, no one is afraid of the dark, they are afraid of what’s in it, no one is afraid to say “I love you”, they are afraid of the response.

Off to Field Camp-

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 18:49:48 +0800

-where I will be isolated in Tekong, lost amidst the gangly trees and haunted streams, the madness of the jungle a vague reflection of my own intolerable and unavoidable torment.

So drink my boiling blood unlovable Mosquito! Suck me dry of passion, foul leech! I will crawl out of your clutches, and I will be free.

See you in a week.

The Onion's Top 30 Books of the Decade

The Onion's Top 30 Books of the Decade:

I’ve only read 7 from this list, and I disagree with The Road, Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, and Atonement; they don’t stand up to scrutiny as well as I would have liked.

Soup Spoon, this is your last warning.

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 22:01:00 +0800

When I say I want a large soup, you will not say ‘What? I’m sorry did you mean grond-day.’ Because that’s not how you become Employee of the Month. Clearly, I am reluctant to call your soup Grande because one, it’s retarded, and two, that’s Starbucks’ shit. I want a bowl of soup that is not the regular, and you only have two sizes. Work it out, Mr Minimum Wage.
