I want to have intelligent conversations with friends.

I want to have conversations where people laugh at jokes that aren’t “that’s what she said.”

I’m not sure if this was me. That chart sounds familiar but I don’t think I reblogged it. I tried my /writing and /words and /chart and didn’t see it, so it’s probably not there.

Posting this in case someone else knows where it is!

finally watching QI and I can’t decide who’s my favorite person ever:

• David Mitchell
• Bill Bailey
• Jimmy Carr
• everyone else on this show ever (Stephen Fry and Alan Davies obvs).

no one told me this show had all my favorite British comedians on it regularly. plus I feel like I’m learning so much. I’m going to start spewing random facts at people.

"When you approach me in public, you are Schrödinger’s Rapist. You may or may not be a man who would commit rape. I won’t know for sure unless you start sexually assaulting me. I can’t see inside your head, and I don’t know your intentions. If you expect me to trust you—to accept you at face value as a nice sort of guy—you are not only failing to respect my reasonable caution, you are being cavalier about my personal safety." — Phaedra Starling, Schrödinger’s Rapist: or a guy’s guide to approaching strange women without being maced

Artist Annie Vought produces remarkable pieces by carefully handwriting texts on huge sheets of paper and then painstakingly carving away all the non-inked parts with a very, very sharp knife. (via boingboing)

looking at grad schools in library science and they’re all in the North or Texas

• no and no

I can’t be cold. the one in Austin could be okay.

I really hope I just get in here, we have the number one school in library science anyway. there’s Greensboro and USC, but I’m not a fan of Greensboro or Columbia. literally everything else isn’t south of DC, except in LA and Honolulu, which are both a huge

• YES and YES

so basically

1. Chapel Hill
2. Honolulu
3. Los Angeles
4. Seattle 

okay. praying I get in one of those. Austin may be cool, I could handle Boston or New York because they’re great cities, but I’d become a total hermit unable to emerge in the winter. they’d be better than Columbia or Greensboro (which I know wouldn’t be terrible). it’d be nice to live in one of US’s big cities for a couple years, I have been craving a huge active city since getting back from London. this probably makes LA ideal. there’s just no reason not to stay here at UNC when I know I like the school, the department, the location, and it’s the top in the country. … except now I’m thinking it’d be nice to try another place.

I just realllly want to live in Hawaii and have since I visited at age 12. I’d probably never return to the mainland again.

no one told me Jeremy Renner was on an episode of Angel!
playing Angel’s protégé no less

I wasn’t prepared for this!

oh god his facial hair is terrible. his hair and style in general is terrible.
