Case and point...

81. Obesity vs. JO... who wins?

Random thought just popped in my head...

At what weight do you stop jerking off, either because it is too much effort or just physically impossible?



looking for feedback on this one.

80. Everyone loves a BJ... Raji

I went to High School with him, no big deal. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the inspiration behind everything he does today.

79. PSU Debauchery

Things that made this weekend a success...

-Bar Trivia
The 'Mark Dirty Sanchez's' made a late run from last place for a solid 4th place finish.


-Video Chat Shots up the WAZZ.


-Getting kicked out of a bar.
Tom thought it would be a good idea to swat the completely full cup of beer outa my hand while I was holding it up. Not only did it get ALL OVER Alex, but it also got all over the sound engineer's jacket. Needless to say, we didn't last very long once he noticed. Best part of all... Tom didn't even get kicked out. He ran away before the bouncer saw him. KBYE.


-Tom wandering off with a future cat lady.


-A slew of drunken texts.
2:52am - "The Lord has gone missing..."
3:06am - "k tom lord found and recovered."


-Hungover movies


-Night of drinking paid for by Amy Scheffer.

"Just make sure I keep my eyes open or else I might throw up..."

77. Lookin' at me like I killed Kenny...

Just listened through all of Eminem's 'Recovery' album that came out a couple months ago. Other than the ones that have been all over the radio since its release, I came across these two songs that I hadn't heard before and thought were really good...



76. Guess I'm Gonna Be Late Today...

It never occurs to me that in times of inclement weather my car might not be ready to hit the road immediately upon me exiting my house. So I stroll out the front door with just enough time to make it to work on time and I find my car in a similar state to this...

75. Hi my name is Joel... and I'm an addict.

Considering getting addicted to drugs so I can get on 'Intervention' and then get to go chill out at the Malibu Beach Recovery Center...

  

74. It's About Time...

I've recently come to the realization that I am on a path headed straight towards morbid obesity. I eat like garbo (especially on the weekends i.e. White Castle at 2am the other night) and I don't exercise... ever. And with beach season right around the corner (k maybe not) I decided that's it's time to stop this nonsense and get my ass in shape.

Earlier today I went for a run for the first time in about 6 months, and I felt exactly like I thought I would... like I was gonna have a heart attack at any moment.

First off, I was freezing cold right from the get go. But I pushed this to the back of my mind cuz I knew I'd warm up in a couple minutes. I figured if I just went nice and slow, I might be able to get through the run relatively easily. Well this WAS my thought process... until my ipod died in the middle of the second song...

I don't know if you've ever gone running without any music, but there's one major issue. If you're running without music (or another person for that matter) and you start experiencing any sort of pain or discomfort, it's VERY difficult to NOT think about that pain/discomfort. It can definitely be done... I know, I used to be able to do it pretty well... it's just way more difficult. When you have music to listen to it's just one more thing to distract you from everything else that's going on and take your mind off any problems your body might be experiencing.

When my ipod first died I thought, "Ok, not a big deal. I'm only running like 3 miles. I should be fine." But then my feet started hurting, my lungs starting burning, my heart started yearning... just seeing if you're still paying attention. It wasn't enjoyable to say the least. BUT, I kept thinking about what a fat ass I am, which motivated me to keep trudging along without stopping.

By the time I got back to my house I was cramping up the wazz and my lower legs were tighter than a snail's... well... you get the point. But I didn't regret doing it. I not gonna do too much too quickly but I'm gonna try and get into a rhythm and hopefully work my way up to running a couple of miles a day.


Oh I'll be fitter than a whistle in no time.

70. What's Your Sign?

Probably not what you think it is...

As of a couple days ago there has been a 13th Zodiac sign added to the mix. Why oh why would this ever happen in a world? Since they're establishment by the ancient Babylonians, the moon's gravitational pull has caused the Earth to 'wobble' slightly on its axis. Thus affecting the Earth's alignment with the stars.

What does this mean, exactly? Well, it basically shifts all the dates of the previous 12 Zodiac signs. What you were before might not be what you are now. For me... I was Cancer before. Now it seems as though I'm Gemini. This isn't the case for everyone though. If you happened to be on the very edge of the limitations of your sign you may, JUST MAY, have gotten pushed more towards the middle or other side of your sign. But for the rest of us... you can kiss your old sign goodbye.

Here are the NEW dates for all the Zodiac signs, including the newest member of the group, Ophiuchus:

Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16.
Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11.
Pisces: March 11-April 18.
Aries: April 18-May 13.
Taurus: May 13-June 21.
Gemini: June 21-July 20.
Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10.
Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16.
Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30.
Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23.
Scorpio: Nov. 23-29.
Ophiuchus:* Nov. 29-Dec. 17.
Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20.

* Discarded by the Babylonians because they wanted 12 signs per year.

69. Billy van Beethoven

Billy Joel steps into the mind of Ludwig van Beethoven...

68. RoOoOoOoOoCK!!!!!

Since I'm sharing scenes...

This scene is the reason this movie was turned off after about 2 minutes on the bus ride to one of our track meets a few years ago...

67. How Do Ya Like Dem Apples?

One of my favorite scenes from Good Will Hunting...

66. Who Stole My Garbage??

There aren't many things in my cubicle that I'd be upset about if I found them missing. I guess my computer would be one... but other than that my cube is mostly made up of papers strewn about all over my desk. BUT... there are two things which have recently vanished from my cube that may cause me to lash out in a fit of rage if not rectified soon.

These two things would be my garbage can and my recycling bin, which look a little something like this...


What kind of heartless son of a bitch would steal someone else's trash and recycling cans??

Why would something as trivial as two small plastic receptacles no longer taking up residence in my cubicle upset me? Well... I'll tell you why.

First of all, without a garbage can, I can't throw anything out. Usually before I come to work each day I make myself 1-2 peanut butter and jelly sangwiches. Obviously, I don't just put these sangs in my bag without anything to protect the innards of my bag from getting delicious speads all over them. The remedy to said situation is usually some suran wrap. So, to sum up, each day I come to work with one or two sangs wrapped in suran wrap. Once I eat sangs and am full and satisfied I, of course, need somewhere to throw out this, now ball, of suran wrap. And where in the hell am I supposed to do this if there is no garbage can readily available? NOWHERE... that's where. Soon I may be forced to start throwing my ball of suran wrap over the walls of my cube into the surrounding cubes and telling them to deal with it...


Now onto the recycling bin...

If you've read any of my past posts about my office job, you would have seen that there are times when I find myself with nothing to do. What do I do to occupy myself during these sparing times? Well, I usually fool around on my computer. BUT, I don't exactly want to make it abundantly clear to everyone passing my cube that I am in no way doing anything that relates to work. SO, I usually put my laptop on my lap and turn so that I am facing the entrance of my cube (this blocking my screen from passersby). But, this position can get a little bit awkward, and every now and then I like to switch it up. How do I switch it up you ask? I will tell you... I usually turn my recycling bin upside down and use it as a footrest to put my feet up on. NOW HOW CAN I PUT MY FEET UP ON MY RECYCLING BIN IF MY RECYCLING BIN IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND?? Thus, you see my dilemma.


I swear to all that is holy in this world that this situation will start having negative consequences on any and all persons who work in the general area of my cubicle if not fixed in the immediate future. KBYE.

65. It Is NOT About Lyrics Anymore...

You probably won't hear this one on the radio...

64. Onion SportsDome

One of the funniest new shows on television. If you're a fan of The Onion then you'll like their new tv show on Comedy Central...


63. Tryin'a Catch Me Ridin' Flurry

After the Free-Movie Tuesday sesh last night I had to drive back home from my dad's house. It's about 35 miles from my dad's house to my mom's house. Usually not that bad of a trek. But last night was different. There was one minor little issue that stood in my way... it was snowing up the WAZZ.

Sure I could have stayed at my dad's house for the night. There's literally an extra bed that no one ever uses. And I didn't even have work today. So I could have stayed til well after it had stopped snowing and the coast was clear... but where's the fun in that?

Instead, I said fuck it... and ran out the door with car keys in hand.

The roads were ATROSHE.... there was probably a solid inch or two of powdery, slippery, wet snow covering the ground. Visibility was TURRIBLE... the majority of the highway I was on didn't have any street lamps on the side to illumate the way. And my windshield wipers SUCKED @$$... they pretty much just smeared the water around on the windshield, leaving me a tiny little space to see through. Not to mention I was driving my Honda Civ... probz not the best car for driving in the snow.

I'm thinking that to any other person these conditions would probably be somewhat worrisome... but it honestly made me enjoy the drive that much more. I was having a blast.

In fact, I think I might have been enjoying the drive a little TOO much. There were a couple times where I was positive that if I tried to turn the steering wheel my car would most likely spin out of control. I even passed 2 or 3 car accidents on the other side of the highway. Yet none of this seemed to phase me in the least. It for sure didn't stop me from turning the radio up and singing to Bruno Mars or rapping to Eminem as loud as I could.

I wouldn't classify myself as an adrenalin junkie. I don't go out in search of the next big thrill. But something's different when I get behind the wheel of a car. I just enjoy taking those completely unnecessary risks that most drivers (probably wisely) try to avoid.

One of these day's it'll probably get the best of me... and I'll wake up dead.



DAMN! THAT'S SOME QUANTUM SHIT RIGHT THERE!!

62. Free-Movie Tuesday... Swan Style

Last night I indulged in another session of Free-Movie Tuesday. This week I was accompanied by the Tot.

This weeks feature: Black Swan
I don't want to say too much about it in case you haven't seen it yet. But I will say this... Taylor LITERALLY pissed his pants. No joke. But in case you're hesitant to go see this movie because it's all about ballet and dancing, well... SPOILER ALERT: LESBIAN SEX SCENE... 'nough said.

It made Natalie Portman seem less like this...


and more like this...
