"Because if this were real it would be fucking terrifying."

I've only been sniffing through this webcomic for a few minutes, and already have seen 4 "Jean Grey keeps coming back from the dead" jokes. TWO with Monty Python references.
Really funny though.

...God "let them find corn" after they nearly froze and starved. Dick.

In Choir, John came in wearing a painfully ugly pimp hat (and: Why is there a picture of Domo-kun on the 3rd Googleimage page for Pimp Hat?), his normal painfully ugly soul patch and a goatee to match, making him look like some 70's devil.
Except he also had glasses. So once he took off the hat and I was able to get over the facial hair, damn did he look nice.

Tonight is the last night of Evolution Schmevolution week on The Daily Show (were it that I lived a 4-day week!). Sad. It's getting pretty lukewarm treatment by some of the folks over at Pharyngula, but I can understand that because they eat live breathe science and evolution: TDS is targeted at not these people, but at the average 18-34 viewer. It did its job very well for the audience in mind.

I have been surprised at how much the whole series of shows has felt like it was "preaching to the choir", though. TDS never honestly claims to be fair and balanced or an authoratative news source or anything like that, but all of these shows have played with the attitude of "I know evolution is fact, you know evolution is fact, let's laugh at these other people and their weak arguments for a little while."
Maybe it's just my community (here's hoping!), but I can think of SO FEW other people who would relate and enjoy something like this it seems like a very daring move. TDS being as wildly popular as it is, this stance is bound to alienate some viewers.

I'd like to thank Jon Stewart, Ed Helms, Lewis Black for restoring my faith in humanity. A little bit.

YAY!

First homosexual magazines are just wrong. Magazines should not be having sex with magazines. Magazines should have sex with newspapers. That's the way God intended it. When a magazine has sex with another magazine, it makes the baby Jesus cry.

Know what's more fun than a box of shit-slinging, disease-carrying monkeys? Rolling the hell out of every single R in Dragostea din Tei, and imitating the Romanian as best you can. "vrrreeeejsa vrrrrreshtarrrr numa numa iei, numa numa numa ei, numanumanuma iei, kittoturrrrrshti drrrrragostyueah din teeeeejjjji ndadifeesccc deiohhh ki tejjejejejejejeje"
Faux Romanian brought to you by O-Zone, Joy, and the gift of mimicry.

We had a neat activity in Spanish today, even if it did get tedious halfway through. We're learning the verb seguir, to follow (among other things). Mr. Ammerman instructed us to line up in alphabetical order without speaking any English, and then we went down the line saying things like "Sigo a Andrew F." or "Sammie G. me sigue". It was a nice way to change the class up a bit.

No Chem work tonight, which is a bloody miracle. Journalism drafts ARE due tomorrow however so omgI'mgoingtowriteitnowandstopwastingmytimewiththisentry.
Wonder if that word will stretch my table on my journal page. XD;;

~Joy will spend some time OFF of SD. Won't she?
