Author: AkirahWyatt [Came across this doing my usual blog research. Pretty good points made here!] I am a glutton for celebrity gossip. US Weekly, Perez Hilton.com, and TMZ bring me incredible joy and I’m not ashamed to admit it. In my eyes, Joel McHale is a genius and I could watch him on The Soup…

Apparently a huge influx of people are leaving their homes in Michigan and moving to Houston and the surrounding areas for not-so-great jobs because the job opportunities in Michigan are literally that dreary. Sad. At this point I am thankful to say I live in Texas.

So, got a little story for ya, Ags. Our class (and those close above and below) are bearing the brunt of today’s recession. A little research has revealed to me the recession isn’t really hitting jobs for those age 16-19, or jobs aimed at young adults 20-24, those that are really getting hit are those…

I cracked up after watching this, mostly because I’m in my mid-20’s, and starting to get the same feeling I had near the end of my junior year in college, of “Shit, I better get my act together so I can actually get something accomplished within the next year…”; because life sure as hell isn’t…

… And I really want to go back to school?

So. When Vh1 produces a female version of “Tool Academy” – what will it be called? It should be different than Charm School, right? Actually, wasn’t there one of these already on MTV? And it had a British theme to it? I think I saw one episode. Did it get canceled?

A local case of the swine flu has come up. Now, I heard this from a very reputable source, and this guy is a sort of ex-in-law. Word on the street is that a worker at a lab in San Antonio, who has an education from UTSA, took some of his swine flu experiments home…

HOW… HOW did I miss Silly Tat Tuesday??Here’s a bunch of bonus tats to make up for it… Although I really can’t envision anyone outside the TNMT’s getting any of these..

Random Celeb Tat Facts/Bad Decisions: 1. Ben Affleck has one of those ridiculous barbed wire arm tattoos. SUCKER! He also has a dolphin, which is a COVER UP of the name of his high school sweetheart! (Why are we letting this guy spout politics to us?) 2. Lindsay Lohan and Lilly Allen recently got matching…

No, really. What in the hell were you thinking? Just to be an internet star, or what? And, unfortunately, this is real; based on the skin peeling.

I am blessed to say most of the people I work with are not idiots. Most of them have common sense. However; it is inevitable that I will someday return to the real world… For instance, today. I had to create simple cards with simple trim lines on simple paper for very detailed meetings tonight….

Does anyone believe that nightmares stem back to certain unpleasantness and correlate to symptoms of trust issues and past problems we have not yet fully resolved? Are dreams where our fears play out because during consciousness we have the common sense to cancel them out due to a healthy grasp on reality and how we…

In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.— Albert Schweitzer Personally, from my heart, I would like to thank all of my friends for being in…

Ever heard of “Dating in the Dark”? It’s ABC’s summer filler show to try and out some of the shallowness of its viewing audience. They pick 3 guys and 3 gals, introduce them in the dark, and play social experiments. And basically, this is how the show breaks down: STEP 1: “Hi! I’m in the…

Now this… THIS is a song for anyone going through a quarter life crisis. And of course, if you’d like to skip the video, here’s the bulk of the lyrics. But for real. This song makes me want to go run my ass off, all the way up and over that metaphorical mountain that has…

So, I figure that I better live up to the true spirit of this blog, and I begin by (reluctantly) reviewing a show guaranteed to be about complete idiocy (writing isn’t always fun, and you don’t always enjoy the assignment. My pain is not your gain, apparently, because this show is terrible). I bet this…

Found this article on The Park Bench, which is SO making it’s way into my daily internet reading rotation!

I have to say, this is the most interesting read I’ve had for quite awhile… Sure it’s an Amazon product, but the real comedy gems are in the customer reviews.iGun Road Rage is hilarious despite it’s profanity.

You know, this whole “adult” thing really isn’t as cracked up as people make it out to be. Sure, I get the freedom to make my own money and make my own decisions, but really I just spend half the time I should be spending or earning my money dealing with YOU IDIOTS out there….

Lately there have been severe differences in opinion regarding the current Texas A&M football coach – Coach Fran – mostly “3 + 3 does not equal 7” and the like, and others hold strong the fact that he’s been good for recruiting football players for the team, and getting a new coach means having to…
