“I saw a lady on TV, she was born without arms. That’s sad, but then they said, “Lola does not know the meaning of the word ‘can’t’.” That, to me, is even worse in a way. Not only is she missing arms, but she doesn’t understand simple contractions. It’s easy, Lola - you just take two words, put them together, take out the middle letters, put in a comma, and you raise it up!”

Ohhhh bad, but oooh funny.
Please reblog this if you're heard of the song, "Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum. I haven't.
(via lindsey)
I have! It’s a great song!
Not only do I know it, I was listening to it on my ipod on the way home from work this evening.
“Supposing you have tried and failed again and again. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down.”

Ohh I like this approach.
I am just about the worst cook ever ...
if I hadn’t lost the back of my phone (the one with the camera) so that the battery falls out and I have to use my piece of shit old nokia (because I can’t get my act together to get a new phone or replace the back of my phone), I would take a picture of the truly awful baked chicken pasta dish I made. God, what was I thinking? Awful awful awful.
“The Environmental Security Hypothesis says that in tough times men will prefer women who are good at production, generally older, taller, heavier, less curvaceous women with less body fat. In good times, they will prefer women who are good at reproduction, generally younger, shorter, lighter, more curvaceous women. A pair of social psychologists looked for signs of this in the pages of Playboy magazine. Consistent with Environmental Security Hypothesis predictions, when social and economic conditions were difficult, older, heavier, taller Playboy Playmates of the Year with larger waists, smaller eyes, larger waist-to-hip ratios, smaller bust-to-waist ratios, and smaller body mass index values were selected. These results suggest that environmental security may influence perceptions and preferences for women with certain body and facial features.”
