Month: August 2011

Besides the fact I needed two days to recover from my birthday celebrations, this week could be summed up in one word – average. This is how average my week was – I was able to stand in front of my television and time how long it took to start up. I’m not kidding. It…

10. Aging In case you haven’t read the most recent entries, I have turned 29 years old. That’s enough of a reason to throw a party. I’m sure that parties have been thrown for lesser causes or reasons, but I can only hope that people haven’t started throwing parties over everyday tasks like putting your…

Takashi Miike’s ode to all things…

Scroll down to read part 1 (posted yesterday, so it’s kind of like day-old French baguettes – you’d still go there, despite your hesitations) if you haven’t already. Reading part 2 of 2 on its own is like skipping to the end of a novel, or reading Wikipedia entries to learn everything. So finding out…

To say a lot happened this week would be a bit of an understatement. When I say a bit of an understatement, imagine you were having the following conversation… Person 1: Man, Hitler was a son of a bitch. Person 2: Now, that’s an understatement. Person 1: I’ve never heard that word before. Person 2:…
