I feel...



It always boggled my mind just how hilariously accurate yet whimsical Chinese-English subtitles are.

Now, a little about my extremely unpredictable life. Over the course of the summer, I have somehow managed to acquire a girlfriend, 2 jobs (1 I quit, the other I got fired from :D), and a major amount of crazy shit. I am writing my exam (deferred from the normal school year) in two days. At the same time, we have recently discovered mold growing in our house (hopefully not toxic or I will have brain damage), which probably means I will have to move out into a different house for the summer. Every time I think I have something under control it slips away. This has led me to completely stop expecting things and just view life as pure chaos. I have to admit, it's been a lot of fun.

Now, for more funny things, I stumbled onto this site. It had no explanation but the title and I'll be damned if it didn't deliver. Tattooing Pigs

Every once in a while the facts to a news story are way more insane than anything the human mind can make up. Best Sentence I Have Read All Year

Of course, all art imitates life, so art can only be less ridiculous than life itself. This is difficult to believe while looking at some surreal artwork.

Speaking of crazy life, there's been a big fuss made over the BP Gulf oil spill in the US. While talking to a friend, we realized that this spill could be the end of us all and everything as we know it. To begin, if the leak is not stopped, it will end up... well, pretty much everywhere (even as far as the Arctic), which isn't even close to the scariest thing that can happen. You see, tropical monsoon season is close by, with storms forming near the coast already. These storms will pick up not only water, but the oil as well and then head in the direction of cities (worst case scenario). Think about that for a second. A giant twirling mass of wind, water, and oil spinning at 200 km/h. Now what happens if someone lights a match? That's right ladies and gentlemen, giant hurricanes of fire are about to engulf our civilization. You can't make this stuff up. But wait, there's more! A good portion of the oil picked up by the storms can very likely end up in the atmosphere. Once again, all it takes is a spark to light up entire skies with fire. Of course, this was all speculation by two rather stoned individuals, but nevertheless, it is scary how easy it is to imagine this happening. Here is a video making fun of the spill.


Well, on that bright note I must take my leave. I will leave you with a task that I have not been able to complete (yet). Maybe you will have better luck.
