Traumarama
My 27th birthday is in less than a month. That’s an adultish age to be, right? And yet, AND YET, I have a traumarama-worthy zit on my chin. PROM IS RUINED!

Web Site Story, CollegeHumor’s Internet musical. This is a serious, serious doozy. Written and directed by Sam Reich, produced by CH Originals (I’m just getting the Tumblr train going). We’re all really excited about it. If you are too, you can Digg it.
Just like the source material, I believe this will go down in the books as a classic.

Like I imagine most people do, I receive a decent number of cutesy email forwards from my family. No shit, as I’m writing this, I just got a fwd from my sis. It’s a PowerPoint presentation of random photos; subject: “Cool pictures this is worth it.”
My cousin Brittany, on the other hand, has a somewhat better understanding of what grabs my interest. And so, it was on this...
“Watched ppl launch fire-fueled paper balloons into the sky last night. Not to be...”

We’d gone out to dinner with some friends in Baldwin Park and as we were driving around we saw something glowing in the sky, off in the distance. I totally flipped out. My first instinct certainly wasn’t “UFO!” but I still couldn’t imagine what it was....

They just make everything—especially music—better.

I Wanna Be Your Limousine... what does that even...
Listening to the Black Kids station on Last.FM is making me think/do silly things. I just Googled “unabashedly pop” and briefly considered buying a pair of tapered jeans.

“Teenagers are horrible creatures whom nobody likes and who like nobody.
Well, OK, that’s not exactly true. Teenagers like each other in fits and starts, sweaty lusting and sad desperate clawing towards one another, the kind of thing that makes you glad that, even though you are feeling old and cancerous and haven’t left the house for two days, you escaped that age. That you busted...

This song just came up on Last.FM and I’m sad that there isn’t something better and more meaningful than the “love” button.

Gag me with a spoon (of fake vanilla)
The chick that walked up the stairs in front of me me was wearing about 3 bottles’ worth of Bath & Body Works’ “Warm Vanilla Sugar” scent; my day is ruined.
Ladies, a little goes a long way, and the distance my breakfast travels from my stomach to my throat is made short when you don’t heed this advice.

“Good luck with your dance recital tomorrow!! Go out there and make the family...”
– text message from my cousin Suzette.
Look, I don’t play favorites when it comes to my cousins. They are each kick-ass in their own way; but c’mon, this made me want to run down to Miami and give her a hug.

I hope it's not lost in translation
My dad called me yesterday morning to chat quickly about a website Adam and I are doing for his restaurant and instead of the usual goodbyes, he leaves me with a joke. It was told in Spanish, so I’ll do my best to translate the hilarity.
Johnny was playing with his train set in the living room while his mother was cooking dinner in the kitchen. All of a sudden, his mother hears “Ok,...

Streeter, have faith. My dance studio is next door to a Karate dojo. Last night, I was getting to class just as a Karate class of youngsters (no older than 8 or 9) were being dismissed. As I stepped out of my car, I overheard the following conversation:

I read the quote from the bodyguard and erupted into a fit of laughter that scared the shit out of both Adam and our cat.

The thing about Chick-fil-A is that you are condemned to crave it on Sundays. This is how you will atone for your sins.
