“2012 marks a presidential election and the end of the world. But since I don’t believe in either of those things, here’s what I want to see happen...

I was just told that I am the female version of this. Hmm.
what I like about you she told me is that you’re crude — look at you sitting there a beercan in your hand and a cigar in your mouth and look at your dirty hairy belly sticking out from under your shirt. you’ve got your shoes off and you’ve got a hole in your right stocking with the big toe sticking...

I need to rant for a second. Clear my head and then get to work so I can go out later.
So I’m home for Christmas. Home is Montgomery, AL if you don’t know. It sucks, and I would not recommend it to anyone ever. People get stuck here for their entire life, and I can’t imagine a worse fate. I might be exaggerating slightly, but I think I’d kill myself if I couldn’t get...

15 BANDS
So I see this meme goin around, and I want in! But instead of just 15 bands I like or whatever, I’m doing 15 bands that mark turning points in my life. Because at the end of the year, whatever year it happens to be, I get nostalgic, and I like looking back.
