You know something? With the exception of Britney, I normally try and stay away from trite celebrity gossip as much as possible. I don't surf Perez, I don't watch ET and I don't read US Weekly. I figure that their lives make no difference to me and whenever I hear something as pointless as 'Zac Efron spotted in Hawaii' I can't help but think "Your point?"

However, I feel that this must be said: Billy Bob Thorton is an asshole-ish douchebag.

He's never really registered on my radar so I can't boycott someone whose films I've never seen. However, I sincerely hope that
immigration Canada refuses to grant that self gratifying prick entry into this country ever again. It's not enough he made a complete fool of himself on CBC and then commented that Canadians are like mashed potatoes without gravy (what the hell does that even mean? Moron); but now he thinks that his press coverage gave "humpbacked geeks" something to do. Well guess what Billy? This humpacked gravy-less geek thinks you're a stupid twat and finds it comical that your music career can't even be classified as "having bombed" when the only hot air that filled it's fuel tank came from your groteskly disfigured smokers' mouth.

What a useless cocksucker.

gimme sympathy.

Today I was walking through Mac Hall on my way to the Loft. On my way there, I walked past a table display with a banner proclaiming "Talk to me about Islam." It was, obviously, fronted by a group of muslim students. They had pamphlets and brochures, and for a moment they seemed to approach me. Mentally, I came up with what I would say to them - "No, thank you, I'm not interested in becoming muslim." This led me to a conclusion and a question: Why, am I as a Christian, far more tolerant to things like this when compared to non Christians? It's true my own faith in organized religion as an institution has diminished to the point of nonexistence, but my own beliefs and morals concerning God and Jesus are still there. While I may not always be the "best Christian example" I still hold on to the truth that I know exists. Why then, am I able to say "No, thank you" in the most polite tone to advances from other religious sects? Especially when non Christians can become extremely offended if approached by someone proclaiming to have "the good word" behind them? If anything, I should be the one most offended as I already lay claim to relationship with a different God than is presented in the Islamic tradition. It comes off as shocking how quick to anger certain individuals are when faced with someone who fundamentally thinks different than them in the areas of religion. But why? Why is it that non Christians seem to be angered, offended and everything in between, when as a Christian faced with the same situation, I am not? A few years ago the Gideons were handing out Bibles in the SU at UPEI, and the outcry that I witnessed was ridiculous "Ouch, it's burning my hand," "Let's go put this in the shredder," "Should I reroute my trip to avoid the SU building?" Come on people - let's be serious. How difficult is it to be polite rather than be angered and offended and make a big to-do about it? More importantly - why become angered and offended?

zero.

This picture got quite the chuckle out of me - so I thought I would share. Enjoy!

my life would suck without you.

Sometimes I wonder... Do people not realize that Kelly Clarkson's song My Life Would Suck Without You is musically identical to Since U Been Gone? Minus lyrical content, the songs follow the same structure. Don't get me wrong - I like the song, it's very catchy, but still. Wake up people.

if u seek amy.

Well, today is the day.

It's the 6th of April and I'm really quite bummed out.

Grrrrr!!!!!!

out there on the ice.

I think if someone were to ask me what my favourite bands are, I would have to reply with "The Ting Tings" and "Cut Copy"

I'd say they've officially become my favourite musical acts of the current moment. I'd really like it if both of them came out with a new album soonish to further fuel my addiction.

you, me and the bourgeoisie

U of C doesn't have a clue.

Seriously. Who decided that classes wouldn't end until April 17th? I don't write my last final until the 25th of April!

It seems like the rest of the country is just about to finish up and here we are, still trudging away....

Frustration!

take me back.

I think I finally understand the expression "shoot yourself in the foot"

Yes, it's a giant cliché, but I never really got it until today when I started to think about it.

I guess what it's trying to imply is that once you shoot yourself in the foot, you can't go anywhere. Physically, you can't move forward. You're stuck where you are and you can't go where you want to due to your foot bleeding out.

Hmmmm.
