Are You Ready For This?
So we meet again. I have the school day off today, so some major vegging will be done today. But that’ll be interupted by homework and the possible softball game I may have today.
Oh. And I’ve been looking around for rock/alt/metal/screams/etc covers of pop or otherwise songs, but I just can’t seem to find as many as I’d like… I heard two of those covers in Hot Topic a few weeks ago, and I really like them. Well. This paragraph just became somewhat pointless. Oh well.
Now. I’d like to introduce two new, er, segments today. The first:
Something is Gravely Wrong With the World
First off, I know that I’ve recently written a very long paragraph about how much Twilight sucks. But today, we have a special treat! Yes folks, today, we shall see how screwed up things are getting because of this monstrosity.
- The “I’m semi-okay in my mind with” List (Alright, I kinda cheated on that one, seeing as though its from Encyclopedia Dramatica’s Twilight page…)
- Did you know that Cullenism is now a religion?
Oh, and here’s a fun fact: Charles Cullen was a serial killer!
Obscure and Possibly Recent Quotes
“GREAT SCOTT! I had no idea that rodents had recently grown wings!” -Me
“You know, while watching that episode of House, I thought that people could actually live together happily and love each other after marriage. But NO! Turns out the wife was poisoning the husband! That just convinced me that people can not live together happily or forever!” -My friend. Marone. Who is cynical about marriage.
Rioting Thoughts
Two epiphanies came to me over the weekend. The first one is that I can’t do 3 hours of workout within a 4.5 hour block. It just won’t work. I learned this the hard way after going to softball tryouts for my school. Maybe an hour and a half or less, I was in karate. It was alright at first, but after getting wailed on… yeah. It wasn’t the prettiest sight or scene.
The second one: A few months ago, my fellow karate class mates were talking about a relationship. Two class mates had dated, but then they split. Then, someone claimed they split because the guy wanted to “protect her from being hurt”. Then, this is where it gets good. An at-the-time red belt, who is a guy, a senior, and probably respectably cool, said the following: “Whoa. Your relationship is a lot like Twilight!” Now, I’m not sure what’s more scary; the fact that the connection was made and that it’s an accurate connection, OR the fact that a guy had made the connection. Any guy in my karate class saying this would be weird. I think the males of my class are masculine enough to not follow something so femminine, hopeless romantic like, and horrible.
In all of my years, I have never heard the idiom “Read the riot act”, which means to warn someone of their misbehavior and the consequences of it. (I think).
And just because of things that have been going on lately, I think it’s best that people know this: No one ever has the right to hurt you, be it physical or verbal abuse. My karate instructor basically said this, but I felt it was nessicary to mold it to more of a universal level.
