Alrighty Then.

School work is finally done, which means I can get back to the things that really matter: blogging to my audience of three.  I know it's been a long time since I rapped at ya, so let's get right to it, shall we:

- On July 1st, the Mets will pay Bobby Bonilla $1,100,000.  They will continue to do so, every year, until 2036.


- Coachella: awesome?  Yes: awesome.  More to come on this later.


- ShakeWeights: the meme that will never go away.  God I hope it never goes away.


- Even wonder what Van Gogh's Starry Night might look like if it were made of bacon, instead of paint: WONDER NO MORE.

- Are we excited about this?  FUCK and YES we are.


More to come.

O M EFFING G.

The gay ginger from Modern Family was wearing a shirt I own on tonight's episode: I HAVE PEAKED IN LIFE.


Yeah yeah, I know it's been a while.  I'm off to Coachella tomorrow but new posts are soon to come.  Promise.

Woof

So Ronery.

This is a little long, and a little light in the loafers (ALLITERATION, BITCHES!), but that's not to say I can't identify with this piece called The Loneliness of the Goalkeeper.  Always the goat, never the hero, we are.  Hat-tip to Pit for forwarding.

Yep.

This is a strange one, alright.  The video for my favorite song on the new National album is like a mash up of The Bodyguard, Mad Men, Flight of the Concords, and The Human Centipede.  Maybe not that last one.

Holy Crap!

I am officially the longest tenured Benjamin at Google.  What do I win?

Seriously.  A plaque would be nice.

One thing you might notice about the screengrab above is the cheery, youthful picture of me.  That was taken on my first day at Google, after a long summer playing soccer in the sun.  Recently, however, we had to update our corp photos, and here is the result:

GAH!  So pastey.  So lumpen.  So... defeated looking.  That is nightmare fuel, is what that is.  Here's a side-by-side, just for fun:

Haunting.

Redesign, Bitches!

Um, yeah... see headline.
