Is it exhausting being so awesome?

Is it exhausting being so awesome?
-Barbara
Yes it is, Barbara. The weight of my awesomeness is a heavy load to bear. It’s like wearing a backpack full of rocks and trying to run uphill as fast as I can. In the snow. And inspirational music is playing in the background, but I can’t hear it because my ears are too full of my own splendor.

Catching up on Hyperbole and Half, a blog that makes me happy and brings super joy to my life. You should read it, if you don’t.

Simpsons Quotes


Lisa: Dad, what’s a Muppet?
Homer: Well, it’s not quite a mop and it’s not quite a puppet… but man (laughs). So to answer your question, I don’t know.
Bart: Why did they make that one Muppet out of leather?
Marge: That’s not a leather Muppet, that’s Troy McClure. Back in the ’70s he was quite the teen heartthrob.

Stranger: You are in a room with exits north and south. There is a table with a piece of paper on it. What do you do?
You: doodle on the paper for a bit.
Stranger: You have no pen.
You: i always have a sharpie.
Stranger: You pull your trusty Sharpie out of your pocket and doodle some rabbits on the paper.
Stranger: The original writing is now obscured by fluffy tails.
You: cool. now i think i’ll take a nap.
Stranger: You lie down on the carpet and close your eyes.
You: snooze
Stranger: Time passes.
Stranger: Soon, you wake up, feeling well-rested, but sore.
You: i have to pee. is there a bathroom or a chamber pot or something around?
Stranger: You look around, but find nothing.
You: sigh. i guess i’ll go out the north exit in search of a toilet.
Stranger: You walk through north exit. Inside, you find a fridge with a toaster duct-taped to the side.
You: sweet! does it make toast?
Stranger: The toaster appears to work.
You: awesome. then i’ll play with it by shooting the toast across the room.
Stranger: You lack bread. However, to amuse yourself, you press the lever and listen as it springs up.
You: why do i always lack bread? dammit, i knew i should’ve got some when i was at the store.
Stranger: Well, when we knocked you out and brought you here, we took away all bread you had.
You: you bastards.
You: is there any food in the fridge?
Stranger: Inside the fridge, you find some bread, a stick of butter, and a frozen leprechaun.
You: SO I DON’T LACK BREAD AFTER ALL.
Stranger: Well, now you don’t.
You: i’ll make a leprechaun sandwich on toast.
Stranger: You toast the bread and place the leprechaun in between the slices.
Stranger: Leprechaun sandwich had been added to INVENTORY.

People have claimed for centuries that they know when the Rapture is coming, but this time, someone’s finally got it right.

People have claimed for centuries that they know when the Rapture is coming, but this time, someone’s finally got it right. They even have billboards and bumper stickers to prove it! The billboards are produced by supporters of a Christian network called Family Radio Inc., and they’ve set up a website to spread the Good Word, WeCanKnow.com. … But how do they really know? Because Family Radio’s founder, Harold Camping, says so. From The Tennessean:
"According to Camping’s prediction, the Rapture will happen exactly 7,000 years from the date that God first warned people about the flood. …
Since one day equals 1,000 years for God, that means there was a 7,000-year interval between the flood and rapture."

"Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?"
"Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?"

5 Magnificent Memes [Mashable Awards]

there’s really no denying that this was the year that the plaid-clad ones became a certifiable meme.
"From the roots of blogs like Hipster Runoff and _Look At This F**king Hipster_ sprung a whole genre of Internet culture devoted to poking fun at "the hipster." See: _Unhappy Hipster_s, Hipster Puppies, Hipster Wife Hunting,If Superheroes Were Hipsters, Hipster Dating, and, of course, corporate America’s attempt at getting in on the game: How Much Hipster Can You Fit in a Jazz?"

The only thing you can do now, the only religious thing you can do, is act.

"The only thing you can do now, the only religious thing you can do, is act. Act for God, if you want to— be God’s actress, if you want to. What could be prettier? You can at least try to, if you want to —there’s nothing wrong in trying." There was a slight pause. "You’d better get busy, though, buddy. The goddam sands run out on you every time you turn around. I know what I’m talking about. You’re lucky if you get time to sneeze in this goddam phenomenal world."
As Nietzsche spoke, so too Salinger. (from Franny and Zooey)
