My Voicemail is now Diamonds Y'all...

You can be on a horse too... Check it out - Old Spice Voicemail Generator. Sooo, is this borderline lamo?? Pffft, I don't think so!

Disgusted, yet not that Surprised...

This video is a study run by ABC news... As you can see here, it uses actors and hidden cameras to gain understanding on a far too common occurence these days, of stereotype and discrimination.



The reactions of some of these people say a lot about today's society. The unwillingness to intercede, and sometimes commend such pitiful discimination is shameful. It blows me away that there's such a polorization among citizens. The real patriots - those who stood up for this innocent woman, are the type of people that this world needs more of.

Throwback... The Knife - Heartbeats


Ahhh, just love this track... Her voice - sooo mesmerizing. Makes me think of a summer day, with colorful balloons and rollerblades.

New Cee-Lo!



So diggin this song right now... I'm def not in a situation where I can relate to the song's message, but the beat just makes me wanna bust a move - like 50's smokey blues bar, breakin it down in shiny black shoes and a scotch on the rocks in my left hand. You feel it too, right?!? RIGHT??!

Neighborly Love


This is how to be a polite neighbor, in the most passive aggressive kind of way. I saw it on Uptown SF, and it cracked me up... "Have you ever seen Star Wars?" That's what makes it so brilliant.

And incase you can't read the writing, check it below...

Letter from my neighbor:

Hey guys-

I know you just moved in recently- but please quit walking on your heels... This place reverberates every step. I would really appreciate it. It vibrates my whole ceiling. It's an old bldg.
thanks-
your neighbor =)

My response:

Hey Bros,

Thanks for the letter! I've always wanted a pen pal. I just wanted to come right out and say it, I'm a person. I saw that you requested I stop walking on my heels, but because of evolution, I'm afraid that's the only way I know how to walk. For your convenience I'm including a list of animals that don't walk on their heels. I'll even draw a chart to scale for you.

Of course, right off of the bat (that's a saying, I don't actually play baseball), I thought of the velociraptor (of Jurassic Park fame). They're a lot like cats, except for the lack of fur, whiskers, cute little purring and their tendency to play with fake mice. Anyway, dogs, mice, scarecrows, real crows, and sharks also do not walk on their heels/cannot walk/do not have feet.

I hope you find this information helpful, and sorry about the chart, but I drew it life-size and I'm afraid this piece of paper only covers the size of a dog's belly.

Regards,
'Guys' <-- I can't believe you already have a nickname for me.

P.S. We're not really "bros" unless we are! Weird. Have you ever seen Star Wars?

Meet "Eduardo"

OK, so this is the guy from all those Mac commercials, Justin Long... He was also in He's Just Not That Into You, and Zach and Miri Make a Porno, among others. This is a recent clip of him on Kimmel, where he highlights his text chat with some rando... Apparently this high school girl accidently texted him, so he did what was right - he messed with her, ha! It's a good laugh...

Words



Brilliant project by Everynone. It took me a couple views till I grasped the concept of this clever video, which makes it that much more awesome.

Stumbled upon this quote today... Soooo true.
"The ultimate measure of a person is not where they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where they stand at times of challenge and controversy"
-Mr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Latenight... Bollywood Style!

This video totally made me smile... I saw this on the Whoa, and loved it! It was shot by Derek Beres, who writes
"Duke and I hopped into a great Punjabi food spot on 1st and Ave A, where he has a long history of jamming with the brothers there.The saag is spiced perfectly, the gulab jamun not too sweet, and vocals ring out non-stop through the night."
So rad... People loving the little moments in life! Not surprised it's outta New York...

Is It Strange I Find This Interesting??

I was on YMFY the other day, and I stumbled upon a story written about the Golden Gate Bridge... More specifically, it was regarding suicide jumpers, and those who attempt to save them, or in the unfortunate circumstance, those who have to collect the bodies. Yes, the article is def a bit scary, but it's also quite illuminating at the same time...

Check it out here
