My Family

Me: "Hey, did you know that the clock is wrong on your laptop? It's an hour off."
My Father: "Yeah, I know. I tried fixing it and I couldn't figure it out."
Me: "It seems that its set to the wrong time zone."
My Mother: "What time zone is it in?"
Me: "Atlantic."
My Mother: "...what is it supposed to be?"
Me: "...Eastern Standard Time."

Later on...
My Mother: "All this plastic is so wasteful. Everything is covered in plastic. Cd cases, plastic wrap, soda bottles. We would save so much oil if we didn't use as much plastic."
My 21 Year Old Sister: "...wait...what's the connection between plastic and oil?"
Me: [stares]

Jane

"I think I saw a guy I knew on the T today, but it might have been his identical twin brother...they look very similar."

Some Web 2.0 Bullshit

When Joey found the this link this morning, he did the following things:

- Posted to it Facebook, Delicious, and Digg
- Sent it to TH Fun
- Set it as his Facebook, Twitter, and AIM statuses.
- Posted it to his other blog.

Sean had this to say:
"It appears that Joey is now manually routing packets through the Internet."

Kurt Was Right

"The moral of the story is we're here on Earth to fart around. And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around."
- Kurt Vonnegut

Punk Boyfriend

I have always wanted a punk boyfriend like my sister has always wanted a puppy.
